Invoke a Non-File-Based Data Import (FBDI) Job

To invoke a non-FBDI job, follow the steps described in this section.

1. Determine whether the job is an FBDI process. See Financials File-Based Data Imports.
2. If the job is non-FBDI, perform the following steps:
   1. Generate the data file based on the template and upload it to Oracle WebCenter Content (Universal Content Manager). Use either ERPIntegrationService::uploadFileToUCM or the Universal Content Manager API /fscmService/GenericSoapPort.
   2. Invoke ERPIntegrationService::submitEssJobRequest.
   3. Invoke ERPIntegrationService::getEssJobStatus to get the status of the job. You may need to invoke it multiple times to get the final status.
   4. Invoke ERPIntegrationService::downloadEssJobExecutionDetails for the logs.
