A Simple Guide to ERP Cloud Customer Creation through integration by Bala Mahalingam

image

Introduction

Customer information is the foundational data for any enterprise. Definition of a Customer object is a crucial one in the Oracle ERP Cloud implementation. 

Typical use cases for customer creation in Oracle ERP Cloud are:

  1. Users creating customer information through application user interface
  2. Users creating / updating customer information through spreadsheets
  3. Integration with another cloud / on-premise application
  4. Initial data load of customer records from legacy applications

This blog is focused on integration use case (3) and provide you an overview of creating customer record in ERP Cloud leveraging new REST API’s available in release 20D and SOAP services.

If you are implementing ERP Cloud and Sales Cloud you need to plan your customer on-boarding process based on your business requirements. One of my blogs on customer data definition guidelines can help you to model your customer in Oracle Fusion Applications cloud. For example, you could start with Prospect in Sales Cloud, and promote it to customer in your sales process, and that customer record will be automatically available in ERP Cloud. ERP Cloud requirement will be just to create Customer Account. Read the complete article here.

Oracle Integration (OIC) – a holistic view by Niall Commiskey

imageThe focus of my posts is usually on the Integration component of OIC. But sometimes it’s better to emerge from the details and take a more holistic view of what is on offer. I may be preaching to the converted, but just in case…

OIC is THE toolkit for connecting your apps, extending your apps, creating net new apps/mashups on top of your app apis and, finally, providing insight into your business processes

Let’s start from the bottom up – OIC runs natively on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). It’s one of many services that does so. Others, such as the one’s I have listed above may be very useful from an OIC perspective, e.g. processing streaming data from the OCI Streaming Service. OIC already has an OCI Streaming Adapter. What about event driven scenarios? The OCI Events Service can respond to resource changes in your tenancy. Orchestration business logic can be implemented in Oracle’s Functions as a Service platform. This is a big value add in respect to our competitors. Please note the OCI Services list in my slide is not exhaustive, other services such as OCI Logging are not listed, purely for space reasons.

Next level – a couple of months ago we released the File Server component. Now you have your own sftp conform server within your OIC environment. Currently you have an allocation of 500GB of space for processing / storing your files. Leveraging File Server is a no-brainer, considering how many ERP and HCM integrations are still file based.

Business Process Automation using Oracle Process Cloud Service by Lalitha Selvaraj

image

Why do we need Process Cloud Service?

Oracle Process Cloud Service lets you automate business processes in the cloud. A business flow can be created through PCS which goes through multiple/single approval process and can also send email notifications for single/multiple users through mail to approve or reject the process flows through online. Turn your company’s specific processes into process applications by creating process models that includes requests, approvals, decision paths and roles for each task. Process cloud mainly used for Healthcare to improve patient care. Endless forms with personal details, medical history, medical tests, diagnoses and treatments. Not only it is difficult to collect patient form data, save and manage these databases, but it’s also difficult to quickly access them. PCS enables you to configure and customize emails sent as notifications to human workflow task assignee’s (the default email notification is too basic, containing only a link to the Workspace app). You can create your own email templates that can include payload information, task information, links and comments.

Integrating Oracle Process Cloud service with Oracle Integration Cloud Service:

Integrating Oracle Process Cloud Service with Oracle Integration Cloud Service which uses REST service to fetch the data from on-premise applications or cloud applications. Process applications can communicate and exchange data with local and remote applications that are exposed as either SOAP or REST. The ICS Integration is available for use from any service task. Using the known Data Association feature, you can map a data object to either hold the information that you want to send to the ICS or hold the information sent back by the ICS.

Try Our Advanced Filtering in Process Forms by Kalyn Chang

image

We have recently added more powerful filtering functionalities in Forms. Previously, you were limited to combining filter conditions with Or logic only, and you couldn’t filter existing filters further. Additionally, we have expanded our logging capabilities so users can see the return values of filters.

Now you can:

· Combine filter conditions with and logic

· Filter other filters

· Debug Filters with Logs

Combine Filter Conditions with And Logic

When defining a filter, you can define any number of filter conditions. For example, if you have a connector call for employees at a company, you can filter the employees based on their zip code, level, or any other property in the employee json object. Previously, you could only combine filter conditions with or logic. For example, you can filter the employees with direct reports or who work at the company’s California office. Now, you can combine filters with and logic. For example, you can filter the employees with direct reports and who work at the company’s California office. Adding the and logic opens up many more combinations of filter conditions. Read the complete article here.
