Synchronize Flexfields with Business Objects

Run the synchronization process to make newly created descriptive or extensible flexfields available in the Data Extraction tool.

Existing flexfields in your instance are automatically synchronized with their corresponding business objects during each Oracle upgrade. If you create new descriptive flexfields or extensible flexfields after an upgrade, run the synchronization process to ensure that the flexfields appear in the Data Extraction tool.

1. From the Navigator, select Tools > Scheduled Processes.
2. Select Schedule New Process.
3. In the Name field, enter Synchronize Flexfields with Business Objects, and press Enter to confirm the process.
4. Select OK to submit the process.

After the process completes, the newly created flexfields are synchronized with their corresponding business objects and become available in the Data Extraction tool.

You can monitor the process in the Scheduled Processes work area.
