Registering an Oracle HCM Cloud Application

When integrating human resources data from Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud with Oracle Hyperion Workforce Planning business processes, register the Oracle HCM Cloud extracts as a "data source" application type.

Data Integration provides an out of the box solution that enables customers to apply predefined mappings from the Oracle HCM Cloud data model.

Data Integration and Oracle HCM Cloud provide templates that the user must load to the Oracle HCM Cloud instance so that data can be extracted.

Oracle HCM Cloud extracts are used to extract high volumes of data from Oracle HCM Cloud. Each of the predefined Oracle HCM Cloud extracts are defined as "Data Sources" in Data Integration.

When Data Integration performs the data extraction portion of the integration, it designates each predefined Oracle HCM Cloud extract as a data source entity. In turn, these data sources are mapped directly to the Workforce Planning data model.

Note:

A Human Capital Management Integration Specialist job role is required to manage Human Capital Management extracts. The Human Capital Management Integration Specialist (Job Role) is the individual responsible for planning, coordinating, and supervising all activities related to the integration of human capital management information systems.

For more information, see Human Capital Management Integration Specialist (Job Role).
