User Data Import from Legacy Applications

You can import workers from legacy applications to Oracle Fusion Applications using the Import Worker Users task . You can access this task from the Setup and Maintenance work area.

By enabling you to bulk-load existing data, this task is an efficient way of creating and enabling users of Oracle Applications Cloud.

The Import Worker Users Process

Importing worker users is a two-stage process:

  1. When you perform the Import Worker Users task, the Initiate Spreadsheet Load page opens. On the Initiate Spreadsheet Load page, you generate and complete the Create Worker spreadsheet. You must map your data to the spreadsheet columns and provide all required attributes. Once the spreadsheet is complete, you click Upload in the spreadsheet to import the data to the Load Batch Data stage tables.

  2. As the upload process imports valid data rows to the Load Batch Data stage tables, the Load Batch Data process runs automatically. Load Batch Data is a generic utility for loading data to Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management from external sources. This process loads data from the Load Batch Data stage tables to the Oracle Fusion application tables.

User Account Creation

The application creates Oracle Fusion user accounts automatically for imported workers.

By default, user account names and passwords are sent automatically to users when their accounts are created. This default action may have been changed at enterprise level, as follows:

  • You can disable notifications for all user life cycle events.

  • You can disable notifications for the New User Created and New Account Create Manager events.

Role Provisioning

Once user accounts exist, roles are provisioned to users automatically in accordance with current role-provisioning rules. For example, current rules could provision the employee abstract role to every worker. Role provisioning occurs automatically and can't be disabled for the enterprise.
