Setup Import Options for a Spoke System

If the spoke system is used to import items into Oracle Product Hub, you can define options such as a schedule, a default organization, and whether to process per item or per bundle.

You can also define additional options such as if the application should check data quality on upload, pack update options, new item request options, item structure name and update options, and change order options.

Setting up the import options for a spoke system allows to quickly default the parameters for the item batches when importing items.

To edit the import options for a spoke system:

1. On the Manage Spoke Systems page, click Action for the spoke system for which you want to edit the import options and then click Edit Import Options.
2. Specify the settings as per your requirement for the following:
   • Default Batch Assignee
   • Import options to import items through an item batch:
   • Data Quality settings
   • Item Structure
   • Pack
   • New Item Request
   • Change orders
3. Click Save and Close.

Item Batch Import Options

Here are the import options you can set for item batch import.

Default Organization	Select the organization to import data.
Process Items	Determine if the items are to be imported individually (Per Item) or as a bundle (Per Bundle). The Per Bundle option is typically used when importing data from a GDSN data pool.
