Overview of Data Sources

Models, controls, and access certifications can analyze data from multiple data sources. Among them, an Oracle Cloud data source supplies access and transaction data from Oracle Fusion ERP, SCM, HCM, and CX applications. It's native to the Advanced Controls and Access Certifications applications, so you don't have to do anything to set it up.

You can also analyze data from the following "synchronized" data sources, but to do so you must set up connections to them.

  • An EPM-ARCS data source provides access and transaction data from Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Account Reconciliation.

  • Up to three EPM-FCCS data sources provide access and transaction data from "pods" in Oracle Enterprise Performance Financial Consolidation and Close.

  • An OCI data source supplies access data from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Each synchronized data source has its own setup procedure. Once data sources are set up, you can schedule jobs that refresh the data they provide and you can perform other maintenance tasks.

You can also import role-assignment data for analysis by access models and controls. The imports are from applications, such as Workday and Salesforce, that aren't among the synchronized data sources to which you can set up connections.
