Uploading from Excel
An Excel spreadsheet that is used as an import source represents one or more ranges. The first cell of a range contains the name of the Oracle Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management, Enterprise Edition table to be imported. The second row of a range contains the column names of the table identified in the first row. Rows 3 and higher contain the data to be loaded to FDMEE.
Range names begin with the FDMEE import identifier ups, for example, upsCategory. When imported tables are related, the parent table must be imported prior to the child table. Range names process in alphabetical order. To ensure the correct parent-child order, assign range names such as upsAParent and upsBChild.
Also note the following behavior when uploading data from Excel:
-
Data is only inserted. It cannot updated or deleted.
-
Data is not validated.
-
When FDMEE encounters a duplicate row, the row is skipped.
