2 Download Specifications

Download Specification is an excel file that allows you to manage the sourcing of data to the IPA Staging Area. The Download Specification maps the Staging Data Model to use cases. This is done by mapping the Staging Model at a column level to use cases. This mapping information is embedded in ERwin at a column level using metadata called User Defined Properties (UDPs).

The Download specifications are extracted by using pre-built templates similar to the Data Dictionary. Due to confidentiality reasons, the Download Specifications are only available on My Oracle Support. For more information, see Other Documents.
