Fusion HCM Extract Tools
Overview – Fusion HCM Extract Tools
 There are two major tools available for  The HCM extract process can :-
exporting data from Fusion Human Capital 1. Extract metadata based on a definition setup.
Management 2. Extract metadata based on given parameter values set up.
3. Integrate with BI Publisher for output delivery.
 Using HCM Extracts.
4. Handle outputs in a variety of acceptable formats such as
 Using Oracle Transactional Business PDF, CSV, EFT, XML, MS Excel etc.
Intelligence. (OTBI)
5. Handle delivery in various modes such as FTP, Emails, Fax
etc.
 Using HCM Extracts - 6. Help archive historical data.
 Extracts are used to export large volumes of 7. Can be used to extract only the changed data (the delta)
complex data into an output file (XML). between 2 specific dates.
8. Provide with log files for de-bugging.
 The XML file can then be passed/transposed onto 9. Can help extract multiple reports using a single extract
another application such as BI Publisher and can be process.
sent to a 3rd party application for data processing. 10. Extracts can be scheduled to run on a specific date-time
also.
 There are two major tools available for  Examples for complex processes where Extracts
exporting data from Fusion Human Capital can be used -
Management 1. Send pay slips to employees **
2. Extract data and send letters for mass processing such as
 Using HCM Extracts. promotions or salary reviews.
 Using Oracle Transactional Business 3. Handle Statutory reporting.
Intelligence. (OTBI) 4. Data archiving.
 Examples of Extracts used for outbound

interfaces -
**Note Before
 HR & Payroll or Benefits data to 3rd party service
providers. * 1. In a co-existence scenario a combination of file based imports &
exports using the ETL tool can be used depending on the business
 HR & Payroll data sent to another application in a co- scenario. ETL Tool requires an additional license.

Fusion HCM Extract Process
 Typical steps taken to configure and run the extract process : -
Create & Edit
Extract Definition
Create & Edit The Extract Definition.
- Extract the parameters - Define blocks & filter records - Define data elements
- Validate & generate the XSD document.
Integrate With BI
Publisher

- Create an template such as an RTF / EFT using BI Publisher using the XSD file
- Create the report and upload the template created.

Refine HCM Extract

Flow Pattern Metadata Submit HCM Process
Definition
Refine HCM extracts by setting up additional parameters in an existing extract to fetch the data. Customer Systems
E.g. 1st extract data on a Global level, then refine the extract process to extract data for a specific region alone.
Elements to a HCM Extract
Definition
 Extract Parameters : Used to filter the results of the data retrieved based on the criteria defined within the extract
definition.
 Extract Blocks: Represent the logical entities (Organizations, persons, employees etc.) which contain the SQL
queries for retrieving the data.
Using extract blocks, users can specify conditions of what data needs to be extracted alongwith conditions such as
setting of expressions for a complex fast formula.
 Extract Block Links: Contains information about the user entities defined within the extract definition. This feature
helps capture the association between the extract blocks via the database items.
 Extract Records: Physical collection of elements of fields and associated data elements which needs to be
extracted.
 Extract Data Elements: Selective attributes of a record or an attribute group.
Validates the
extracts defined.
Validates all the fast

formulas defined.
 Extract Validation: Users can validate their extract definitions by compiling any fast formulas that it may contain by
generating the XML schema definition(XSD) file.
The exported XSD file is then used by the BI Publisher to create the template required to save the extracted definition.
Extract Delivery Options
 Delivery options for any extract is defined by specifying the BI Publisher
delivery file output type (such as CSV, Excel etc) and the associated
delivery types (such as E-Mail, Fax, FTP etc).
Based on the type of delivery options users select, they may have to
provide additional details. For example, if the users select FTP as a
delivery type then users would have to : -
 Provide an appropriate server name.
 User name & password details.
If within the XML the output should be sent to multiple recipients at the
same time, then a bursting node can be mentioned.
For e.g. If all employees should be sent a pay slip to be delivered via
email, then the bursting node would be the Employee_ID.
**Note Before
The documents of record option if selected, enables storage of the output file in the database.
This option is best suited for extracting pay slips and storing them in the database for the employees to view them online.
 PDF By Email :
 EFT By Email :
 Report Categories:
Report Categories help users to create combinations of various
delivery options under a single extract.
Using this feature, users can deliver multiple forms of output to

multiple users. For e.g. **
 A PDF report by email to the HR.
 An electronic funds transfer (EFT) file by FTP to a third party.
** Two delivery options would have be to created within the same report category to achieve this output.
