User Groups

Ensure that the users are assigned to the following appropriate user groups:

  • Object Export Administrator-View, edit and delete Map Dimensions, Map Tables and Object definitions.
  • Object Export Analyst-View the details of Map Dimensions, Map tables and Object definitions.

On-Premise Environment Specific Prerequisites

  • The source/On-Premise environment hosting the licensed and supported OFSAA Applications, must be on v8.0.7.8.0 or later.
  • Before creating the export archive, review the names of all metadata objects selected for migration, including dimensions, rules, processes, allocation models, and allocation specifications. Object and dimension names must not contain restricted special characters. If an object or dimension name contains any restricted character, rename it in the source/on-premise environment before export, then recreate or refresh the export archive.

    The restricted special characters are: - ~ ` ! @ # % ^ * ( ) + = | : ; \ " < > ' ? /

    For example, replace "/" in an Allocation name before exporting the object for migration.

  • Optional (Recommended). If the Licensed Applications are installed on different OFSAA Instances, merge all the instances existing in the same information domain into a single OFSAA Instance. This will ensure that there are no duplicate Object IDs across various source instances, during migration. For assistance, contact Oracle Support.
  • Apply the patch 37803567.
