(Draft 17-Jan-14)With Fusion ERP Cloud Service your integration
requirements can easily be met with ADF Services, ADF Desktop
Integration, File Based Data Import, and Reporting Tools.Oracle
Fusion ERP Cloud Service is built with Oracles Application
Development Framework (ADF) and provides four primary methods of
integration with other applications: ADF Services (commonly
referred to as Web Services), ADF Desktop Integration, File Based
Data Import, and Reporting Tools.

documented in detail in the Oracle Enterprise Repository.

that are documented in detail in Oracle Enterprise Repository.
The following table identifies some key ADF Services for Fusion
Procurement:
Purchase Agreement (deleteChangeOrder, cancelChangeOrder,
cancelPurchaseAgreement) Purchase Order (deleteChangeOrder,
cancelChangeOrder, createPurchaseOrder, changePurchaseOrder,

Human Capital Management does not have many web-services exposed in
the cloud deployment.
Most of the ADF-Services such as Supplier, Item and Requisition
etc. will be available in R8 or onwards.ADF Desktop Integration
ADF Desktop Integration (ADFdi) is also part of the ADF
framework and enables desktop integration with MS Excel
spreadsheets to manage large volume data uploads into Fusion
Applications. The integration provided with ADFdi includes
interactivity that enables web picker to search for valid values,
perform validation during data entry, display error messages, and
immediately submit transactions directly from MS Excel.

File Based Data Import
File Based Data Import (FBDI) is another option for getting
information into your Fusion ERP Applications. The process of using
FBDI is quite simple: download an excel template that identifies
all of the fields, populate the spreadsheet with data from the
external system, save the file as a .csv file type, upload the file
to the server, and run processes to transfer the data to the
interface tables and import into the various applications. All of
the data is validated during import to insure its integrity.
The following table identifies the FBDI options available in
Fusion Financials Cloud Service:
Supplier Invoices Mass Additions of Fixed Assets Intercompany
Transactions
Customer Invoices Mass Retirements of Fixed Assets Journals
Customer Receipts Mass Transfers of Fixed Assets Segment Values
and Hierarchies

Reporting ToolsFusion ERP Cloud Service uses four primary
reporting tools which can be used to extract data from Fusion
Applications and import into your external systems.
BI Publisher delivers high volume transactional reports, such as
Invoice Registers or Trial Balance reports, that can be configured
to extract the data in Rich Text Format or XML. Oracle
Transactional Business Intelligence for Financials provides the
ability to build custom queries on transactional data, and the
output can be downloaded to Excel.
Financial Reporting Center enables reporting based on
multi-dimensional general ledger balances and hierarchies. Live
reports that are based on real-time data can be analyzed and viewed
in multiple output formats, such as HTML, PDF, Excel and other MS
Office products.
Smart View is an Excel plug-in that allows your financial users
to perform ad hoc multi-dimensional analysis on general ledger
balances in real-time.
All of these reporting tools provide broad access to data in the
cloud for integration with external systems.
Following Reports are available out-of-the-box in Fusion
Financials and can be exported in excel format to feed the data to
other systems More than 300 Reports are available from various
modules such as Payables, Receivables, Cash Management, Fixed
