The course was designed for you to facilitate learners doing the specified activity at this
point.
Background
Requirements
You must have access to Oracle Fusion Applications InFusion database (or
comparable training or test instance at your site) on which to complete this
practice.
Activity Scope
Open the Manage HCM Configuration for Coexistence page and set the parameters
ODI Password and Loader Number of Processes.
In this activity, you set the parameters that control the Load Batch Data process.
In environments that are accessed by multiple students, only one student needs to
perform this task.
Start Here
1. Enter Manage HCM Configuration for Coexistence in the Name field of the
Search section and click Search.
4. In the Loader Number of Processes field, enter 8 to replace the default value,
which is 1.
5. Enter a value (for example, welcome1) in the ODI Password field. This
parameter has no effect on HCM File-Based Loader, but a value is required. You
can leave other configuration parameters to use the default settings.
7. Click Submit.

Background
Requirements
You must have access to Oracle Fusion Applications InFusion database (or
comparable training or test instance at your site) on which to complete this
practice.
Activity Scope
Open the manage HCM Configuration for Coexistence page and generate the mapping
file of cross-reference information for HCM business objects. Retrieve the file from the
Oracle WebCenter Content account hcm/dataloader/export and save it to your
desktop.
In this activity, you generate the mapping file of cross-reference information (GUIDs) for
Oracle Fusion HCM business objects, retrieve the file from the Oracle WebCenter
Content account hcm/dataloader/export, and save it to your desktop.
Start Here
1. In the Name field of the Search section, enter Manage HCM Configuration for
Coexistence and click Search.
3. In the Generate Mapping File for HCM Business Objects section, click
Submit. An information message showing the process ID appears. Make a note
of your process ID.
4. Click OK.
5. In the Generate Mapping File for HCM Business Objects section, click
Search to view the process summary. You may need to click Search more than
once if the process takes more than a few seconds to complete. The process
status value for your process ID must be 12.
6. Click Search again if the process status value is 13, which means that the
process has paused.
Note: If the process does not complete in a reasonable time, open the
Scheduled Processes work area (Navigator > Scheduled Processes) and
search for your process ID. In the Search Results section on the
Scheduled Processes page, note the Scheduled Time value for your process.
This time is set automatically and may be some minutes after the submission
time. Return to the Manage HCM Configuration for Coexistence page
(Navigator > Setup and Maintenance > Manage HCM Configuration for
Coexistence).
7. Once the process completes, the File column for your process ID on the
Manage HCM Configuration for Coexistence page shows the name of the zip
file that contains the generated GUIDs for Oracle Fusion HCM business objects.
Make a note of the file name.
8. On your desktop, create the folder FBL Sample Data. (Right-click, select New >
Folder, and enter the name FBL Sample Data.)
9. Open the folder FBL Sample Data and create three subfolders with these
names:
GUIDs
Create Data
Update Data
1. Open the File Import and Export page (Navigator > Tools > File Import and
Export).
3. In the search results, identify your mapping file by the name and date values.
6. In the Enter name of file to save to window, select the desktop folder FBL
Sample Data > GUIDs and click Save.
Information
You will use the cross-reference file of GUIDs in the next activity when you create your
sample data. You can extract the file to the FBL Sample Data > GUIDs folder if you
want to review the contents.

point.
Requirements
You must have access to Oracle Fusion Applications InFusion database (or
comparable training or test instance at your site) on which to complete this
practice.
Activity Scope
You import the zip file of data (for example, Student04Create.zip) from the
hcm/dataloader/import account on the Oracle Fusion WebCenter Content server to
the Load Batch Data stage tables using the Load Data for Coexistence task.
Note:
Students are recommended to perform this activity one at a time rather than
simultaneously to avoid locking the stage tables.
Start Here
1. In the Tasks pane, select the Load Data for Coexistence task.
2. On the Load Data for Coexistence page, click Import. The Import and Load
Data dialog box appears.
3. Enter the Content ID that you obtained when loading the file to the Oracle
WebCenter Content server using the File Import and Export interface.
4. Select All to load all the business objects from the zip file.
Object names are prefixed with the batch name to provide a unique batch name
for each batch. For example, if your file contains Job and Job Family objects and
you specify the batch name Student01Create, then your batch names are
Student01Create:Job and Student01Create:JobFamily
6. Set the Loader Run Type parameter to Import and click Submit.

contents.
Information
The log file provides a summary of the process of unzipping the file and importing
its contents to the stage tables. In the log file, look for the Total number of rows
processed, Total number of rows inserted into
HRC_LOADER_BATCH_LINES_SRC, and Total number of rows discarded
values. In this activity, you insert 199 rows into the
HRC_LOADER_BATCH_LINES_SRC table and process 10 objects.

Requirements
You must have access to Oracle Fusion Applications InFusion database (or
comparable training or test instance at your site) on which to complete this
practice.
Activity Scope
You have imported your data to the Load Batch Data stage tables and corrected any
import errors. The import process created 10 object-specific batches (for example,
Student01Create: Location, Student01Create: BusinessUnit, and so on). To load the
data from the stage tables to the application tables, you run the Load Batch Data
process for each of the 10 batches.

successful and failed objects in the batch.
9. Repeat this process from Step 4 for the remaining batches in the following order:
BusinessUnit, Grade, GradeRate, JobFamily, Job, Person, Department,
Position, and WorkRelationship. Allow each batch to complete before you run
the next. When a batch completes, it moves to the top of the search results. To
move Complete batches to the bottom of the list, you can select Sort
Descending on the Batch Status column header.
