17 Creating an Application
Account Reconciliation enables you to create a sample or new application. Only one application can exist in a single environment.
Before you begin:
- Consider the scope of your application; decide what data you should include and how it should be organized.
- Preconfigure your environment, as described in Pre-configuring Your Environment.
You can create your application using one of the following options:
-
Create a Sample application
The sample application provides pre-loaded sample data and related artifacts, enabling you to try different operations. Using this out-of-box environment, you can explore the capabilities and performance of Account Reconciliation to get familiar with the functionality enabling you to more easily work with Account Reconciliation once you are ready.
-
Create a New application
A new application enables you to create the application and then load your own data, either manually or using a flat file. This can also be used with migration functionality to bring in a previously saved backup snapshot.
-
Migrate an existing application
To import a business process from a snapshot that you previously uploaded to the environment. See Migrating to the Same or a Different Environment in Administering Oracle Account Reconciliation.
See What Applications Can I Migrate to EPM Standard Cloud Service and EPM Enterprise Cloud Service? in Getting Started with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for Administrators for prerequisites and snapshot compatibility.
