Synchronize Transaction Data

To ensure that transaction models (and controls) evaluate current data, a synchronization job uploads new and modified records from your Oracle Cloud data source.

For the most part, this happens in the background. Using features available in the Advanced Controls Configuration page of the Setup and Administration work area, an administrator schedules the job to run regularly (and may also run it on demand). With each run, it updates all business objects used by all current transaction models and controls. (See Schedule or Run Data Synchronization.) The job must run at least once before you can evaluate transaction models.

But there's a special case: As you create or edit a model, you may add one or more business objects that have never been synchronized before. If so, you can synchronize those objects only, to load the data you need for model testing.

  1. In the Models page, select the row for the transaction model whose data you want to update.

  2. Select Actions > Synchronize Business Objects.

  3. A message presents a job number. Note the number, then close the message.

  4. Check the status of the synchronization job: Click the Monitor Jobs button in the Models page. In a Monitor Jobs page, locate the row displaying the job number you noted, and look for the status value to update to Completed. Then click the Back button to return to the Models page.
