Business Objects and Technology Choices Available for Integration

Oracle Fusion Cloud Product Lifecycle Management provides support for multiple business object families to help inbound and outbound integrations.

The families and their child objects are listed in the tables. During the integration process, you can transact the data for the entire business object family as a single unit, or for a specific member business object based on the data dependency rules. For example, you can import an item with all its structures and attachments all at once, or import only the item attachments if the item is already present in the system.
