Please ensure to have read all published documentation as

this presentation will not cover system requirements and

prerequisites or offer detailed explanations.

Logging into ERPi

• Launch the Workspace URL and login


Logging into ERPi

• Choose ERP Integrator from the Navigation icon



Create HFM Target

Application Registration

Create an ERPi Target SystemOracle Hyperion Financial Management

• Choose “Setup > Target Application > Add”



• Select the Application Type from the DropDown

• Select the Application Name

• Press “OK”



• Application Details:

– Language: Default Language of the Application

– Data Load Method: How you want Data to be dealt with

– Create Drill Region: Enables Drillable Region Load



• Press “Save” in the upper right to commit the record



• Dimension details are displayed in the bottom to allow you to

change the class types if necessary:



Creating an Import

Format

Create an ERPi Import Formats

• Choose “Setup > Import Format > Add”



• Provide the following information and press “Save”– Name: Something meaningful and unique

– Description: Something meaningful

– Source System

– Accounting Entity

– Target Application

• Import formats are similar to the previous „Metadata Rules‟



• Provide the segment relationship between the segments and

the target dimensions. – Note: It now shows the dimension name versus Custom1, Custom2, Custom3, Custom4, etc.

• Press “Save”


Create an ERPi Location

• Choose “Setup > Location > Add”


Create an ERPi Location

• Define the valid Location information– Name: Unique meaningful name

– Import Format: Import format to leverage

– Accounting Entity: Accounting entity to apply against

– Target Application: Valid Target Application




Create Target Application

Metadata

You need to define Metadata rule only if you plan to load Metadata. If you want to load just

data you can skip the entire Metadata rule definition and running.

Create an ERPi Metadata Mappings

• Select “Setup > Metadata > Add”

• This is the process as previous Metadata Rules and initializing



• Add the required dimensional mappings with mapping details




• Execute the Metadata Mapping initialization by pressing “Execute”


Create an ERPi Metadata Mapping

• Verify the Agent execute some work:

• Verify the items inside of the ODI Operator



Create Member Mapping

Create an ERPi Member Mappings

• Select “Data Load > Member Mapping”

• The default system generated mapping done when the Metadata

mapping was created will be sufficient for FDM



Create Data Load Rule

Create an ERPi Data Load Rule

• Select “Data Load > Data Load”

• Press “Add”


Create an ERPi Data Load Rule

• Populate the Data Load Details:– Name, Category and Description

• Populate the Source Filter Information

• Populate the Target Options



Create an ERPi Data Load

• Press “Execute” to initialize

• Provide the Execute Rule options

• Press “Run”


Create an ERPi Data Load

• Verify the Agent execute some work:

• Verify the items

inside of the ODI

Operator


Configure the FDM ERPi AdapterHyperion Financial Management

• Now that we know that data is being exported we can configure the FDM

ERPi adapter to leverage this rule and file created to then import data to

then complete the mapping and the data-management process.

• To do that start by logging into FDM and importing the adapter .XML

– File > Import > ERPI-FIN-B.xml



• Once the process is done you are returned to the main Workbench Win32

window and the ERPI-FIN-B adapter is now available under the „Source

Systems Adapters‟ section.



• Next you need to register the Adapter .DLL.

– File > Register Adapter > fdmERPi.dll

• A MS-DOS box will briefly appear during the registration and then close



Import and Configure the

ERPi adapter inside of FDM


• To configure the adapter right click “(ERPI-FIN-B) ERP Integrator >

Options”

• After editing each entry, you will need to press Save

We will only go over the key ones.



• ERPI Database Service Name– Name of the ERPI database service /server used for ERPi

• ERPI Database User/Schema and Password – Username and password of the database user for the ERPI database. This user

information is used to transfer data from the ERPI database to the FDM database.

• Workspace URL and Port Information – <WorkspaceServerName>:<Port>

• ERPI Data Rule Name– The name of the ERPI data rule to be executed. Generated earlier in this PDF.

• Enable Drill Through

• Generate data file for audit trail*


* ERPi no longer generates a „data file‟ to be used during the import. The data is now brought into FDM

via a Database Link. If the „data file‟ is required then this option should be enabled, but it is never used

other than for an audit.


• Now an import format needs to be created to leverage the ERPI

Adapter. Log into FDM and choose “Metadata > Import Formats”



Create FDM Import

Format


• Add a new import format– Make sure to choose „File Type‟ as Adapter

– Make sure to set the Delimiter to NA

• Update Grid to save change



• Add the Adapter to the format just created

• Update Grid to save change



• Now we need to assign the import format to a location.

Select “Metadata > Locations”

• Highlight the desired location, click the „Workflow Behaviors‟ tab, and set the

import format.

• Press “Save” to commit the changes



• Test the import by setting your POV to the Location you just linked to the ERPi

Adapter.

• Navigate to the “Workflow > Import”

• Click “Import” on the “Upload File” Tab



• If all went successfully you should be able to see records on the screen. From

this point forward, standard FDM practices are involved.


Configure the FDM ERPi Adapter

• This completes the ERPi Target System Registration

• This completes the ERPi Adapter configuration for FDM

• This completes testing the adapter
