Registering EPM Cloud Applications

You create and register an EPM Cloud application when you use a business process instance with a remote service, such as Planning, to integrate data with another business process instance, such as Financial Consolidation and Close. In this case, connection information must be selected between the two business process service instances.

This feature enables EPM customers to adapt cloud deployments into their existing EPM portfolio including:

• Planning

• Oracle Essbase

• Financial Consolidation and Close

• Tax Reporting

• Account Reconciliation

To create an EPM Cloud application:

1. From the Data Integration home page, and then Actions, select Applications.

2. On the Applications page, click (Add icon).

3. On the Create Application page, and then Category, select EPM Cloud.

4. In URL, specify the service URL that you use to logon to your service.

5. In User name, specify the user name for the Cloud Service application.

   The user name is the name of the administrator user defined in the Applications page to define the connection. For more information, see Configuring an Oracle ERP Cloud Connection.

6. In Password, specify the password for the Cloud Service application.

7. In Domain, specify the domain name associated with the Cloud Service Application.

   An identity domain controls the accounts of users who need access to service instances. It also controls the features that authorized users can access. A service instance belongs to an identity domain.

   Note:

   Administrators can update the domain name that is presented to the user, but Data Integration requires the original domain name that was provided when the customer signed up for the service. Alias domain names cannot be used when setting up Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud connections from Data Integration.

8. From Application, select the type of application.

9. Click OK.
