2 Before You Install the Recipe

You must perform the following configuration tasks on your File Server and Oracle ERP Cloud instances in order to connect to these external systems using Oracle Integration, and successfully import suppliers.

Configure File Server

You have to create the required directories in File Server.

1. Create a directory to read the files. Note down the path of the directory. For example: /home/user2/source.
2. Create a directory to archive files that have been processed. Note down the path of the directory. For example: /home/user2/archive.
3. Create a directory to write the log file. For example: /home/user2/logs.

Configure Oracle ERP Cloud

To access the Oracle ERP Cloud instance from Oracle Integration, you’ll require a separate user account on Oracle ERP Cloud.

Log in to your Oracle ERP Cloud instance as an Administrator and perform the following tasks.

1. Create a user account for Oracle Integration. Make a note of the user name and password you set for the account. You’ll use the credentials of this user account to connect to Oracle ERP Cloud from Oracle Integration.
2. Assign the following roles to the user account. For more information on these roles, see Assign Required Roles to an Integration User.
