Use Extensible Fields to Include Additional Attributes

Use the configurable extensible fields to include additional attributes in your extract definition. You can include up to five additional attributes. You can configure fast formulas to determine the values for these attributes and map these formulas to the extensible fields.

To use the configurable extensible fields, do these actions:

  1. Create a rule formula of type Extract Rule for each extensible attribute that you want to extract.

  2. Map the rule formula to the extensible attributes using the delivered lookup type ORA_HRY_EXTND_DATA_FORMULA_MAP.

Map the Rule Formula to the Lookup Type

Do these steps to map the rule formula to the lookup type:

  1. In Setup and Maintenance, search for and select the Manage Common Lookups task.

  2. On the Manage Common Lookups page, in the Lookup Type field, enter ORA_HRY_EXTND_DATA_FORMULA_MAP and click Search.

  3. In the ORA_HRY_EXTND_DATA_FORMULA_MAP: Lookup Codes section, for the ORA_HRY_ENABLE_EXTND_VALUES lookup code, enter Y in the Meaning field to enable this feature.

  4. In the ORA_HRY_EXTND_DATA_FORMULA_MAP: Lookup Codes section, add these lookup codes:

    Lookup Code

    Meaning

    Description

    Enter the lookup code as the Short Code of the attribute. If you need to have different fast formulas for different countries or interfaces, enter lookup code as the short code of the attribute with a unique prefix. For example: country

    Valid rule formula name to populate the value for the attribute Extensible Field 1.

    Enter a valid description. For example: This attribute is being extracted through this extensible field.

    Enter the lookup code as the Short Code of the attribute. If you need to have different fast formulas for different countries or interfaces, enter lookup code as the short code of the attribute with a unique prefix. For example: country

    Valid rule formula name to populate the value for the attribute Extensible Field 2.

    Enter a valid description.

    Enter the lookup code as the Short Code of the attribute. If you need to have different fast formulas for different countries or interfaces, enter lookup code as the short code of the attribute with a unique prefix. For example: country

    Valid rule formula name to populate the value for the attribute Extensible Field 3.

    Enter a valid description.

    Enter the lookup code as the Short Code of the attribute. If you need to have different fast formulas for different countries or interfaces, enter lookup code as the short code of the attribute with a unique prefix. For example: country

    Valid rule formula name to populate the value for the attribute Extensible Field 4.

    Enter a valid description.

    Enter the lookup code as the Short Code of the attribute. If you need to have different fast formulas for different countries or interfaces, enter lookup code as the short code of the attribute with a unique prefix. For example: country

    Valid rule formula name to populate the value for the attribute Extensible Field 5.

    Enter a valid description.
