Import Your Action Plan Action Relation Data

How You Map Your Source Data to Target Object Attributes

To import your Action Plan Action Relation data into Oracle Applications Cloud, you need to populate a CSV file with your source data and map that source data to target object attributes in Oracle Applications Cloud.

You need to do the following before creating the CSV file for data import:

Identify how your source data attributes map to the target object attributes in Oracle Applications Cloud.
Ensure prerequisite setups are done, if applicable.
Understand your options for uniquely identifying the records.
Ensure parent records exist before importing child records.
Identify the target object attributes that are required in the CSV file for a successful import.

Before You Start

You must do some basic checks before starting your import. For example, make sure that:

You have completed all the prerequisites for importing each attribute in your source data.
You have all parent records in place before importing child records.

Select a Unique Identifier for Your Records

All records must be unique in the application. You can use one of these to identify records:

Public unique identifiers: If you're creating records, then you can provide an easily understandable public unique identifier. These are, usually, denoted with 'Number' and visible in the business object's UI. PUID attributes are usually named <object> Number. If you're updating a record with a Number attribute, then use the Number attribute to identify the record. For more information about public unique identifiers, see the topic "How You Use Alternate Keys to Import Records" in Related Topics section.
Source system and source system reference: Source system is an identifier for the external system, and source system reference is a unique identifier within the external system. If you're importing new action plan action relations or are updating action plan action relations that have source system reference data, then provide the source system and source system reference values.

Required Attributes and Validations for Action Plan Action Relation Object

To import data successfully into Oracle Applications Cloud, your CSV file must include the required attributes. Ensure that you provide valid values for the attributes. This table lists the required attributes for importing new Action Plan Action Relation records, required attributes for updating Action Plan Action Relation records, prerequisite setup tasks for the attributes, and specific validations, if any, for Action Plan Action Relation import:

Attribute	Description	Prerequisite Setup Task/ Import Validations	Creating a Action Plan Action Relation Record	Updating an Existing Action Plan Action Relation Record
DeletedFlag	Contains the values, Yes or No. If Yes is used, then the dependency record is deleted. If No is used, then the then the dependency record isn't deleted.	A valid value from the YES_NO lookup.	Optional	Optional
RelationId	The relation identifier between actions in an action plan.	A valid primary key for the action plan action relation record in the destination system is required.	Not Required	Required
DepActionPlanActionNumber	The relation identifier between action plan action rows for an action plan.	A valid action plan action PUID in the destination system is required. The combination of ActionPlanActionNumber and DepActionPlanActionNumber should be unique for a Action Plan.	Optional A Null value is accepted.	Optional A Null value is accepted.
DepActionPlanActionId	The dependent action identifier of an action plan.	A valid primary key for the action plan action record in the destination system is required. Either the DepActionPlanActionId or the DepActionPlanActionNumber is required. If both are present, then the DepActionPlanActionId is preferred.	Optional A Null value is accepted. Either DepActionPlanActionNumber or DepActionPlanActionId is required to locate a ActionPlanAction row.	Optional A Null value is accepted.
ActionPlanActionId	The action identifier of the action plan.	A valid primary key for the action plan action record in the destination system is required. Either the ActionPlanActionNumber or the ActionPlanActionId is required. If both are present, then the ActionPlanActionId is preferred.	Optional Either ActionPlanActionNumber or ActionPlanActionId is required to locate a Action Plan Action row.	Optional
ActionPlanActionNumber	The reference number of the action plan action object.	A valid action plan action PUID in the destination system.	Required	Optional

You can view the Action Plan Action Relation object along with all its child objects and attributes in the Manage Import Objects page of the Import Management flow. You can find attribute information like type, length, description, and so on, on this page.

Create the Source CSV File

You include the data that you want to import into Sales and Fusion Service in a source CSV file.

You can use the templates available in the Import Objects UI page to create the source CSV file. To download a template:

Go to Navigator > Tools > Import Management > Import Objects.
Select the Action Plan Action Relation object in the table and click Download.

You can now edit the downloaded file and provide valid values for the required attributes.

Note: For help in populating the CSV file and to avoid any issues in entering values, see the topic Potential Issues When Opening CSV Files With Excel in Related Topics section.

Create the Import Activity

After you have the CSV file ready, create an import activity to import the information. To create an import activity:

Go to Navigator > Tools > Import Management > Import Action Plan Action Relation.
Click Create Import Activity in the Manage Imports page.
In the Enter Import Options page, provide a name for the import activity, and select Action Plan Action Relation from the Object drop-down list.
Select the CSV file in the File Name field, and click Next.

You would see that the source and target attributes are automatically mapped in the Map Fields page. Review and edit the mappings if required.
Check the file for unmapped columns or data format issues by clicking Validate Data. Click Next.
Review the import details on the Review and Submit page, and click Submit when you're ready.

Review the Import Results

Check if your import succeeded on the Manage Imports page. This page shows the status of all active, completed, and unsuccessful imports. To check the status of the import activity:

Go to Navigator > Tools > Import Management > Import Action Plan Action Relation.
Click All Imports and search for the import activity that you created earlier.
Check the Status column for the import activity. The import is successful if the status displays as Completed. You can drill down on the import activity to go to the Import Status page which provides the status details of the import activity.
