Using an Extract Package (EDMCS) Job Type

Use the Extract Package (EDMCS) job type to run an extract package in Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud. The extract package results can be output as individual files or a combined file based on the parameters of the extract package. Extract package files can be written to the Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud staging area or transferred to a global connection target.

This job type is only supported for a remote operation (a non-local connection). To create a new Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud connection, see: Adding Pre-built Integrations within the Cloud EPM in Administering Financial Consolidation and Close.The connection must be defined as an "Other Web Services Provider" connection type. The URL inside the connection must be in the format: https://hostname.com/epm. A URL ending with any other suffix than "epm" does not function properly.

Note:
