R12 Uploading a Journal using Web ADI : Step by Step

Overview:
Web ADI brings Oracle E-Business Suite functionality to the desktop where the familiar
Microsoft Excel, Word, and Project applications can be used to complete your Oracle
E-Business Suite tasks.
The Web ADI integration with Microsoft Excel enables you to bring your E-Business
Suite data to a spreadsheet where familiar data entry and modeling techniques can be
used to complete Oracle E-Business Suite tasks. You can create formatted spreadsheets
on your desktop that allow you to download, view, edit, and create Oracle E-Business
Suite data. Use data entry shortcuts (such as copying and pasting or dragging and
dropping ranges of cells) or Excel formulas to calculate amounts to save time. You can
combine speed and accuracy by invoking lists of values for fields within the
spreadsheet.
After editing the spreadsheet, you can use Web ADI's validation functionality to
validate the data before uploading it to the Oracle E-Business Suite. Validation
messages are returned to the spreadsheet, allowing you to identify and correct invalid
data.
Key Features
Oracle Web ADI includes the following features:
Works Via Internet
Web ADI uses Internet computing architecture to lower the total cost of ownership by
having the product centrally installed and maintained. No installation is required on
client machines; you need only a Web browser and Microsoft Excel. This architecture
also provides superior performance over a WAN or dialup connection, since the
exchange between client and server is simplified through the use of HTML.
Presents E-Business Suite Data in a Spreadsheet Interface
Spreadsheets provide a familiar interface that is common in the business environment.
You can use familiar editing capabilities such as copying and pasting data, and moving
ranges of cells to create or edit large amounts of data. Recurring data entry is possible
by saving a spreadsheet, and then uploading it at needed intervals, such as every month
or every quarter. Spreadsheets offer additional flexibility in the way work is done; they
can be sent to others for approval or review, and they can be edited when disconnected
from a network.
Validates Data
All data in the spreadsheet can be validated against Oracle E-Business Suite business
rules before it is uploaded. This includes validation against key and descriptive
flexfields. Data is validated against accounts, segment security rules, and cross
validation rules. If any errors are found, messages are returned directly to the
spreadsheet, enabling you to correct the errors and successfully upload the data.
Enables Customizations
You can use the layout functionality to determine what fields appear in your
spreadsheet, where they appear, and if they contain default values. These definitions
can be saved, reused, and modified as needed.
Automatically Imports Data
Wed ADI automatically imports data into your Web ADI spreadsheets whenever you
create them. This information can come from the Oracle E-Business Suite or from a text
file. Imported information can be quickly modified in Excel, validated, and uploaded to
the Oracle E-Business Suite. This feature can be useful when migrating data from a
legacy system to the Oracle E-Business Suite.
Using Web ADI
The Oracle E-Business Suite task you perform on the desktop is determined by the
integrator you select in Web ADI. Each integrator is delivered with the E-Business Suite
product that provides the functionality being integrated with the desktop. Additional
information specific to each integrator can be found in the product-specific
documentation.
You can access Web ADI functionality through a Self Service link on your personal
home page.
