Redwood Experience for HCM Data Loader

Enrich the user experience with the new Configure HCM Data Loader page developed using the Redwood toolset. This page is built from the ground up using Visual Builder Studio (VBS) to give you a unique experience of Oracle applications

Configure HCM Data Loader used to enable HDL functionality, override the default processing behavior, and configure which processes are submitted after business objects are uploaded. Additionally, use this page to review and configure the post processes that are automatically submitted after bulk-load processing.

The Configure HCM Data Loader page available in the Data Exchange work area consists of 4 tabs:

  • HCM Data Loader Parameters
  • HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader Parameters
  • Business Object Post Processes
  • Data Set Post Processes

HCM Data Loader Parameters

Salient Features:

You can review and configure the parameters that control feature availability, default file shape, performance, and diagnostics for HCM Data Loader and runtime behavior for both HCM Data Loader as a whole and for specific business objects.

Here, not all parameters can be overridden. Some are read-only to describe the default behavior and provide details of the file-specific instruction that can be used to change the run-time behavior for individual files.

  • HCM Data Loader tab:

     Parameters that control HDL feature availability, performance and runtime behavior across all business objects. 
    • Search: Search for parameter by typing in the parameter name.
    • Filter: Use the Category filter chip to retrieve applicable parameters for various categories like: Availability, Diagnostics, File Definition, Performance, and Scheduling Default.
    • Sorting: Parameters displayed by ascending category and parameter name.
    • Parameter Information: All the parameters are listed in a table with the following columns:
    •  Field

        Description
        Parameter Name   Name of the parameter
        Category   Category of the parameter
        Default Value   Pre-configured default for the parameter
        Override Value   Overridden value of the parameter
        Description   Description for the parameter
        Action

    • Search: Search for parameter by typing in the parameter name.
    • Filter: Use the Business Object filter chip to retrieve applicable parameters for selected business object.
    • Sorting: Parameters displayed by ascending business object and parameter name.
    • Parameter Information: All the parameters are listed in a table with the following columns:
    •  Field  Description
       Business Object

HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader Parameters

Salient Features:

You can review and configure the parameters that control feature availability, default file shape, performance, and diagnostics for HCM Data Loader and runtime behavior for both HCM Data Loader as a whole and for specific business objects.

Here, not all parameters can be overridden. Some are read-only to describe the default behavior and provide details of the file-specific instruction that can be used to change the run-time behavior for individual files.

 Note: This allows different default behavior between the two tools. For example, participants enrolled using HSDL may evaluate life events (the volume is smaller), while this capability is disabled in HDL.

  • HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader tab:

     Parameters which control HSDL performance and runtime behavior across all business objects.
    • Search: Search for parameter by typing in the parameter name.
    • Filter: Use the Category filter chip to retrieve applicable parameters for various categories like: Availability, Performance, and Scheduling Default.
    • Sorting: Parameters displayed by ascending category and parameter name.
    • Parameter Information: All the parameters are listed in a table with the following columns:
    •  Field  Description
      Parameter Name Name of the parameter
      Category Category of the parameter
      Default Value Pre-configured default for the parameter
      Overridden Value Override value for the parameter

Business Object Post Processes

Salient Features:

You can review and configure processes that are automatically submitted after data is loaded for a business object.

  • Search: Search by post process name.
  • Filter: Use the Business Object filter chip to retrieve applicable processes for various business objects.
  • Sorting: Processes are sorted by business object, processing order and process name.
