1. File-Based Data Import for Oracle Permitting and Licensing
  2. Loading Data into Tables

Loading Data into Tables

Use the file-based data import feature to import large volumes of data from third-party or other Oracle applications, or create new data in Oracle Permitting and Licensing. For example, you can import address, parcel, and owner (APO) data into the PSC_COM_PARCEL_B, PSC_COM_PARCEL_ADDRESS, PSC_COM_PARCEL_OWNER, and PSC_COM_PARCEL_VALUE_F tables using the AddressParcelOwnerImportTemplate.xlsm template.

You can also use certain file-based data import features to update large volumes of existing data in the application.

Load Data into Interface Tables

Perform the following steps to load data to the interface tables:

  1. Download the relevant file-based data import template.

  2. Enter data in the template.

  3. Click the Generate CSV File button on the Instructions and CSV Generation worksheet in the template to create the CSV files in a zip file format.

  4. Save the zip file locally.

  5. Sign in to Oracle Applications Cloud as a user with the ORA_PSC_SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR_JOB role.

  6. From the Navigator menu, click File Import and Export in the Tools section.

  7. Click the Upload icon. Click Browse to search for and select the zipped data file you saved.

  8. Select the account for the applicable file-based import process.

  9. Click Save and Close to transfer the zipped data file to the Oracle Universal Content Management Cloud server.

  10. Navigate to the Scheduled Processes page, and click the Schedule New Process button.

  11. Select Job in the Type field, and Load Interface File for Import in the Name field. Click OK to upload your data from the CSV files to the interface tables.

    Note:

    Some data import processes will prompt you to select additional parameters before submitting the process. In this case, the process also loads data from the interface tables to the product tables.

Load Data into Product Tables

Perform the following steps to load data from the interface tables to the product tables:

  1. Navigate to the Scheduled Processes page.

  2. Verify that the Load Interface File for Import process completed successfully.

  3. Submit the product-specific import process.

  4. Verify that the import process completed successfully.

Note:

Not all Oracle Permitting and Licensing file-based data imports require you to perform these steps.

Manage Data in Interface Tables

To manage the growth of product interface tables, there is an automatic purge interface table process that is initiated for each file-based data import process for data records older than 30 days. You can also use the Purge Interface Tables process to manually delete data from the tables.

Use Web Services

You can automate the entire inbound data flow using web services as an alternative to the manual approach outlined above. In addition, you can manage data from product interface and error tables with streamlined purge capabilities.
