How to backup and migrate OTBI objects in Fusion Cloud

Following  approaches one can use to promote OTBI objects from one instance to another. 

1) Manual :  Old school method. Manually follow same instruction as development. This is beneficial if change is simple only in layout or in one data set and you are unsure about other changes in development instance. 

2) Archieve/Unarchieve : 

On catalog screen we can see Archive and Unarchive options. 

Select the object and click archive for export OR

Click on More and select archive option. 

*.Catalog file will be created. 

Login to target instance and use unarchive option and select catalog file.

3) Upload/Download :

On catalog screen another option available is upload/download.

if download option is not available, open XMLPSERVER

<POD_URL>/xmlpserver

 Example :  https://san-test.fa.ap1.oraclecloud.com/xmlpserver

This will open BI Publisher Enterprise ( Old BI Publisher feature - Only BIP Data Model and Report are available). 

*.xdoz (Report)  & *.xdmz (Data Model) file will be downloaded. 

Oracle WFR scans comma as decimal in LineItem fields

This can not be resolved by using field properties ( Exclude Char) feature since Line Item is of Table type and there is no such properties.

Custom Sub Routine would be way forward, following is a sample -

Private Sub LineItems_ValidateTable(pTable As SCBCdrPROJLib.ISCBCdrTable, pWorkdoc As SCBCdrPROJLib.ISCBCdrWorkdoc, pValid As Boolean)
'======================================
'By Sandeep
'======================================
Dim i As Integer

For i = 0 To pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).RowCount -1

'Replacing some known characters identified during debug
pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Unit Price", i)=Trim(Replace(CStr(pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Unit Price", i)),".",""))

pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Total", i)= Trim(Replace(CStr(pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Total", i)),".",""))

pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Total", i)= Trim(Replace(CStr(pWorkdoc.Fields("LineItems").Table(0).CellText("Total", i)),".",""))

Next

End Sub


Above is a sample code to replace any char and assign the replaced value back to line Items.
Based on business required we can change the values and assign the calculated values agaain.

If Total field has comma replaced by decimal,  form a logic to check length of post decimal string and decide if decimal is actual decimal or comma. Accordingly replace comma with "" and assign back. 

Oracle WFR : Basics

WFR - Oracle Web Center Form Recognition 

Open Project file (.sdp) in Form Recognition.

Definition Mode

• This will be used to define attributes properties 
• Select user exit and press F12 ( right click >> Show Scripts) to show available userExits 
• Select invoice Oracle F12 ( right click >> Show Scripts) to show sub routines. Select Objects and available related  procedure
• Make the required changes and Save project 
• After successful extraction ( from Run mode) user can  switch to Definition mode > invoice > fields to see each attribute extracted values 

Run Mode 

• Select a File 
• Select Run mode
• Click Extract next record 
• Extraction will be completed 
• Extraction results are displayed 
• Successfully extracted and passed validation will be ticked 
• Crossed attributes are failed some validations  

Verifier Mode ( Text)  

• This will be used to show extraction results for each attributes 
• Move over the mouse on red colored fields and it will show the failed validation 

Verifier Mode ( Design)  can be used to design the layout. 

** UserExits and SubRoutines are written in VB language

HCM Extract Migration

HCM Extract provides export and import options. For any new development work, migration approach should be export/import.

Export Extract Definition
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Manage Extract/ Extract Definition >> Search Extract  and Click export icon ( 3rd one having up arrow key symbol)  

This will download the XML version of Extract definition. 

Import Extract Definition 

My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Manage Extract/ Extract Definition >> Click on Import Icon ( opposite of export and available at top left corner , beside +) 

It will prompt to Give Extract Name and file Import. 

Limitation - Extract Name must be unique during Import. This is why this method doesn't really helpful if change is in existing extract. 

It also doesn't allow to delete extract  if it did ran in past. So you can't delete and reuse same name. 

For Operational Support, all changes to existing extract need to be done manually. 

Execution of HCM Extract

Extract Submission 
Option 1 
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Submit a Process or Report >> Submit Extracts

Option 2 
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Submit Extract  >> Search Extract  >> Submit

Option 3 
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Manage Extract/ Extract Definition >> Search Extract  and Click on Submit Extract Icon ( Last in list, a box with arrow key) 

Option 4
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Submit a Process or Report >> Search for Recently Completed Runs >> Open Action List >> Submit Similar 



Extract Scheduling 
Option 1 
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Submit a Process or Report >> Schedule



Extract Rollback
Option 1 
My Workforce >> Data Exchange >> Submit a Process or Report >> Search for Recently Completed Runs >> Open Action List >> Roll Back >. This will submit roll back request and results will disappear from original run
