When deployed to Gateway, the system appends the attributes of the objects in Unifier to the corresponding object in Unifier Provider. You can select multiple items and deploy the selected items to Gateway. For the selected objects, the user can create the following and synchronize the data exchange:
- Data Mapping templates
- Business Process flows
If the "Integration" form of the following is set in uDesigner, you can use this option to deploy:
- Activity Sheet Attributes (as captured in Unifier > Unifier Provider > Gateway)
The deploy action only sends the values that you had manually entered in the Activity Attribute form to Gateway.
The "Activity Sheet" object in Gateway contains all the pre-defined Activity Attributes fields by default.
If you have added bitemID field in the Activity Sheet, then the P6 CBS code (P6) can then be mapped to the
bitemID
(Unifier) in the field mappings on Gateway. - Projects/Shells (Attribute form)
- Business Processes
Data Elements of type SYS Rich Text must not be sent to Gateway, when deployed.
- Roles (Attribute form)
- CBS Codes (Unifier CBS Shell-type only)
- Project-level/Shell-level User-Defined Reports (UDRs)
- Company-level UDRs
How to exchange data through UDR with an Oracle application Provider
You can export the data generated out of a UDR through Gateway and out to an external system. UDRs that are enabled for integration (i.e., the "Enable for Integration" option is selected) appear in the Business Objects node log, under Gateway in Company Workspace. You can deploy these UDRs and integrate them with Oracle integrators.
Note: For a UDR to be eligible for deploying to Gateway, you must select the "Enable for Integration" option.
All the UDRs, which have been enable for integration (i.e., the "Enable for Integration" option is selected), are listed in in the Business Objects node, and you can choose to deploy those UDRs to Gateway to configure them for Data Exchange.
The Business Objects node log displays UDR types and categories.
All Project-level/Shell-level UDRs have Project-level/Shell-level as their type and User Defined Report as their category.
All company-level UDRs have company-level as their type and User Defined Report as their category. You can search for and find a UDR Business Object by type or category.
If you deselect the "Enable for Integration" option of a UDR after it has been deployed to, and configured in (for a Business Flow), Gateway, the system generates an error when synchronizing.
If you delete a UDR that you have recently deployed to, and configured in (for a Business Flow), Gateway, the system generates an error when synchronizing.
When a Line Item Type BP is deployed to Gateway, from Unifier, the system creates two objects for that BP.
You can create different field mapping templates, according to the template requirements, and use the templates in different Business Flows to transfer the data.
If you share documents between Unifier and any Oracle application, and the Oracle application does not support document integration, the system completes the Business Flow but without transferring the documents.
