Creating an Implementation Project and Select Offerings

You use Functional Setup Manager to create an Implementation Project to configure an Offering and the Modules that you want to deploy. For example, if you have installed Oracle Fusion Applications HCM, you might create an Implementation Project to configure the ETL for Oracle Fusion Applications HCM.

To configure ETL for Oracle Fusion Applications, you must create at least one Implementation Project. When you create an Implantation Project, you select the Offering to deploy as part of that project.

When you create an Implementation Project, FSM generates the Tasks required to configure the specified Offerings. By default, the Tasks are assigned to the BI Administrator user. If required, you can optionally assign Tasks to Functional Developers, who will then perform the Tasks.

To create an Implementation Project:

1. From the Tasks bar in Oracle BI Applications Configuration Manager, select the Perform Functional Configurations link to launch Functional Setup Manager.
2. Display the Manage Implementation Projects page, choose Actions, then Create, to display the Enter Basic Information page.
3. Use the Enter Basic Information page to specify the project details.

Note: A default Name, Code, and Description are created for you. You can change these values if required. If you change the Code value, you must specify a unique code.

Tip:

Use the Name field to specify a meaningful project name that includes the Offerings being deployed. After selecting an Offering and Functional Area(s) for implementation as part of the IP in the next step, there is no way to go back and see which Offerings and Functional Area(s) had been selected.

4.      Click Next to display the Select Offerings to Implement page.

Note:

Do not click Save and Open Project. Choosing Save and Open Project will create an incomplete Implementation Project, for which you cannot later specify an Offering and Functional Areas.

You must click next to specify an Offering on the next page.

5.      Use the Select Offerings to implement page to specify the Offering and the Functional Areas to include in the project.

For example, if you are configuring Oracle Procurement and Spend Analytics with Payables and Sourcing, you select the Include check boxes next to Procurement, Payables, and Sourcing.

Note: To make Offerings easier to manage, Oracle recommends that you deploy one Offering in an Implementation Project. In other words, if you are deploying three Offerings, then create three Implementation Projects.

6. Save the details.

When you save the project, FSM generates the list of configuration tasks for the Offering and Functional Areas that you included in the Implementation Project.
