Simplified Loader’s Projects Template is a fully integrated Spreadsheet with Oracle Fusion, which allows searching, creating, and updating project details. Project Template allows to create Project header, Team Members, Classifications, update Project Status and DFF.

Users of the Oracle Fusion PPM module can utilize Simplified Loader’s Excel Templates to download or upload Projects from Excel to Oracle Fusion. Excel Template provides a feature-rich interface and allows management of all information required for Project creation from within the Spreadsheet. Excel Template provides a list of values for Project Template, Organization, Service Type, etc. The Template offers full support to change Project Status, add or update Classifications, or load DFFs.

Project Template is best suited for both centralized Project creation process or Data Migration. Simplified Loader Excel Template can be distributed to users who wish to create projects for organizations using centralized Project creation processes. The portable nature of Simplified Loader Excel sheets makes it possible to distribute the file to any user (inside or outside your organization) who wishes to request Project creation. The person providing input details can utilize the offline features of Simplified Loader Template to enter and validate data without connecting to Oracle Fusion. When a centralized project creation team receives Projects data, they can use the file (without a need to copy-paste data from one Excel file to another) to upload projects from Excel to Oracle Fusion.

Oracle provides an FBDI sheet for data upload. Compared with FBDI, Simplified loader Templates are 95% more convenient to use in terms of organizing data in Excel, steps involved in data upload, and resolving errors. Please review a detailed comparison with FBDI Template here.
