Switching to a Different Cloud EPM Business Process

Overview of changing a Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Performance Management business process by recreating the environment.

Each Cloud EPM environment supports only one application at a time. Because the application defines the business process for the environment, switching to a different business process requires recreating the environment.

Recreating the environment deletes the current application, including all user-defined artifacts and data, and restores the environment to its original state. You can then create a new application for a different business process.

Once recreation begins, the environment is unavailable for approximately 20 minutes. If you want to retain data or artifacts from the current environment, perform a full backup before starting the recreation process.

Recreating the environment does not change the following:

• Snapshot created during the last maintenance of the environment. Cloud EPM always retains the maintenance snapshot
• Users that you created in the identity domain that use the environment
• Users to predefined role assignments

Note:

You can also recreate an environment using EPM Automate or REST API. See:

• Recreate Service in Working with EPM Automate.
• Run Recreate on a Service in the REST APIs for Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM guide.
