Setup Data Import and Export for Oracle Fusion Financials

The following table describe the manual tasks that you must complete as part of the setup data export and import processes for the Oracle Fusion Financials offering.

Section	Description
Setup tasks performed before export	Perform these tasks prior to starting export processes for the Financials offering.
Setup tasks performed before import	Perform these tasks prior to starting import processes for the Financials offering.
Setup tasks performed after import	Review and perform the manual setup steps on the target instance as required. Setup data for these tasks isn't imported from the source instance.
Setup tasks not requiring data import	Perform these tasks on the target instance as required. These setup tasks don't require data import.

Refer to the Oracle Fusion Functional Setup Manager User's Guide for the steps to perform setup data export and import processes.

Setup Tasks Performed Before Export

Prior to starting the export processes from the source instance, you must verify and update setup for the following task described in the table. Verifying the setup ensures that data is correctly imported into the target instance.

Activity Name	Task Name	Setup Steps
Define Chart of Accounts	Manage Account Combinations	Account combinations aren't exported from the source instance. Before exporting, navigate to the Manage Chart of Accounts Instance page on the source instance and verify that dynamic insertion is enabled for your charts of accounts. As long as dynamic insertion is enabled, account combinations are created automatically as needed on the target instance.

Setup Tasks Performed Before Import

Prior to starting import processes into the target instance, you must verify and update setup for the following task described in the table.

Activity Name	Task Name	Setup Steps
Define Common Applications Configuration for Financials	Define Implementation Users	The import process doesn't include implementation users and roles associated with them. For more information, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management.

Setup Tasks Performed After Import

Setup data for the following tasks listed in the table aren't imported. Review these tasks for relevance to your implementation. For relevant tasks, open the corresponding setup pages from your implementation project to create the setup on the target instance as needed.

Activity Name	Task Name
Define General Ledger Options	Manage Journal Approval Rules
Define Approval Management for Financials	Manage Task Configurations for Financials Manage Approval Groups for Financials
Define Tax Geographies	Manage Tax Geographies
Define Payables	Define Automated Invoice Processing Configuration Manage Payables Document Sequences
Define Image Processing	Configure Document Capture Parameters
Define Customer Billing Configuration	Manage Salesperson Account References
Define Customer Payments	Manage Receivables Specialist Assignment Rules

Setup data for the following tasks listed in the table aren't imported from the source instance. Review the steps in the following table to create the setup on the target instance as needed.

Activity Name	Task Name	Setup Steps
Define Credit Card Data	Extend Employee Matching Rules	Write user-defined PL/SQL code to extend the predefined criteria for automatically matching new corporate cards to employees to incorporate your company-specific criteria. If you use a user-defined matching rule, then the PL/SQL package isn't imported to the target instance. You can create the package in the target instance or copy the package to the target instance and compile it.
Define Customer	Create Customer	Manually create customers, using the Create Customer task in Functional Setup Manager, or import customer information by running the Trading Community Model Data Import program.
Define Customer	Manage Customers	Manually maintain customer information using the Manage Customer task in Functional Setup Manager, or by running the Trading Community Model Data Import program.
Configure Payment System Connectivity	Manage BI Publisher Templates	Manually import any new or updated BI Publisher templates. Use the BI Publisher archiving feature, or alternatively perform the following steps: Download the template file from the source Oracle BI Publisher catalog. Update or create a new template in the target Oracle BI Publisher catalog. Upload the source template file to the target template.
Define Subledger Accounting Rules	Import Supporting Reference Initial Balances	This task allows upload of initial subledger balances for supporting references. These balances aren't imported from the source instance, but can be loaded directly to the target instance. For more information, see Oracle Fusion Accounting Hub Implementation Guide, Define Accounting Transformation.
Configure Payment System Connectivity	Integrate External Payment Systems	Setup entities resulting from this integration are exported and imported through the Transmission Configuration service. However, any work performed outside of Oracle Fusion Applications to integrate with a payment system must be applied to the production environment manually. Examples include user-defined code, routers, or dedicated lines to facilitate communication.
Define Payments Security	Manage System Security Options	This setup can't be imported and must be set up again in a production instance. Use the steps documented in the Oracle Fusion Applications Post-Installation Guide.
Define Financial Reporting Center Configuration	Configure Smart View Client for Users	Manually reconfigure the Smart View client to point to the production instance. For more information about configuring the Smart View client for users, see: Oracle Fusion Accounting Hub Implementation Guide, Define Financial Reporting Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management, Installing Smart View and other topics Oracle Hyperion Smart View for Office User's Guide for Oracle Hyperion Smart View
Define Financial Reporting Center Configuration	Define Essbase Database Connection in Workspace	Manually reconfigure the Essbase database connection in Hyperion Workspace. For more information about configuring the Hyperion Workspace Database Connection, see Oracle Fusion Accounting Hub Implementation Guide, Define Financial Reporting,
Define Financial Reporting	Create Financial Statements	Export the financial report definitions from Workspace in the source environment. When exporting, you can export a single report, multiple reports in a .zip file, or an entire folder structure in a .zip file. Navigator > General Accounting: Financial Reporting Center > Open Workspace for Financial Reports. Navigate > Applications > BI Catalog. File > Export. Save the file to the local desktop. Import the file into Workspace in the target environment. Navigator > General Accounting: Financial Reporting Center > Open Workspace for Financial Reports. Navigate > Applications > BI Catalog. File > Import. Select the file you had saved during the export. If you import the folder structure, the entire structure from the source instance is imported into the existing structure on the target instance. This could result in some redundant folders. In this case, you can reorganize child folders in the structure on the target instance and delete any unneeded folders.
Define Period Close Components	Manage Allocations and Periodic Entries	Export the allocation rules, rule sets, variables, and run time prompt definitions from Calculation Manager in the source environment. When exporting, you can export at the application level or at a single rule or rule set level. Note: You must export and import rules for each application on the Essbase server separately. Navigator > General Accounting: Journals > Create Allocation Rules. Navigator > Administer > Calculation Manager File > Export. Save the file to the local desktop. Import the file into Calculation Manager in the target environment. Navigator > General Accounting: Journals > Create Allocation Rules. Navigator > Administer > Calculation Manager Navigate to File > Import. Select the file you saved during the export.
