Register and Import Data

To import data from an external application such as Planning, you’ll use a wizard; in it, you select the application's dimensions, properties, and connections to manage in Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Data Management. The registration process creates the components of the Cloud EDM data chain – node types, hierarchy sets, node sets, viewpoints and default view you’ll need to work with the application’s data in Cloud EDM. The import process populates the data chain with nodes.

This diagram shows the registration and import process specifically for Planning application dimensions Account and Entity.

Planning Account and Entity dimensions are created and imported into Cloud EDM. Each dimension is represented in a viewpoint, node set, hierarchy set, and node type in Cloud EDM. Users manage data in the Account and Entity viewpoints.
