5 Registering Applications

Use the Applications option to register source and target applications when defining integrations. You can register local Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Performance Management applications, business to business process integrations (cloud to cloud applications, such as Planning to Financial Reporting) data export to file applications, and generic data source entities into your existing EPM portfolio.

The process to register applications provides data visibility, integrity, and verification systems. After you select the Applications option, an Applications page displays allowing you to register new applications, or you can select an existing application and update application options, delete it, or refresh application definitions.

Applications registered in Data Integration are made immediately available for selection when you choose a source and target on the General page. They are also made available in Data Management.

Note:

The Applications option is available in the Actions drop-down on the Data Integration home page for administrators only.

You can use the Actions drop-down next to each row of applications to select different application related tasks associated with the application type including:

• viewing dimensions

• change applications options

• adding, updating, or deleting values for data source applications.

• updating (reinitialize) Oracle NetSuite and Oracle ERP Cloud applications.

The following example shows the application options available for an EPBCS application from the Actions drop-down:
