Adding Applications

  To add applications:

  1. Access the FDM Logon page by launching the Web client or Workbench:

    • Web Client—Select Start > Programs > Oracle EPM System > Financial Data Quality Management > Web Server Components > Web Logon.

    • Workbench—Select Start > Programs > Oracle EPM System > Financial Data Quality Management > Workbench > Workbench Client.

  2. From Application, select <Add Application>.

  3. Enter the FDM user name and password.

    Note:

    The domain name may be required for certain configurations.

  4. Click Logon.

    The Applications dialog box is displayed; all applications defined on the computer are listed.

  5. Click Add.

    The Add Application dialog box is displayed. It provides two tabs—General and Database.

  6. On the General tab, enter application information.

    • Name—Do not use spaces. Underscores (_) are acceptable.

    • Description—Application description.

    • Path—Path to the application.

  7. Select the Database tab, and enter the database information.

    You use the Database tab to define the properties of the RDBMS database and stores the FDM transaction data.

    • OLE DB Provider—The database used by FDM. The default database is SQLOLEDB (SQL). Oracle is also supported.

    • Database Server—The location of the database used by FDM (only available when SQLOLEDB is selected in OLE DB Provider).

    • Database Name—Typically the same as the application name. The database name you define will be the name of the RDBMS database (only available when SQLOLEDB is selected in OLE DB Provider).

    • Service—The Oracle service used for connecting to the Oracle database. This option is available only when OLE DB Provider is set to ORAOLEDB.

    • Username—The database administrator user name, for example, the SQLOLEDB administrator user name.

    • Password—The database administrator password.

    • Options—An override of the default table space where the application is created (available only when ORAOLEDB is selected in OLE DB Provider).

  8. Click OK.

    The .ini file and registry settings for the application that is referenced are created.
