Introduction:
There are basically two ways to enter data into Oracle: by typing it into a user interface (Java
Form or Web Page) or by taking a file and programmatically interfacing the data. Web ADI falls
into the second category in that it takes an Excel file and programmatically loads the data into
Oracle. If you find it easier to enter data into Excel than Oracle forms, you should look into
using Web ADI.
Downloading a Web ADI

The first step in downloading a template is to locate the responsibility and menu that is linked to
M
that template. Some templates can be downloaded from the Desktop Integration menu and
others must be downloaded from a specific responsibility. For security, some templates are
linked to specific responsibilities. For example, we can download the GL Journals template from O
.C
the Desktop Integration responsibility but we cant download the Project Transaction Import
template from the same responsibility.
T
To download a template you will use the following components: integrator, viewer, layout, and
O
content. Based on how the menu is setup, some of these components may default for you.
P
S
Integrator
The integrator defines what data you will be uploading to Oracle. Each integrator serves a
specific purpose and cannot be used to enter other data.
G
O
L
Viewer
The viewer is the Microsoft program you will use to enter data into the template
.B
8
Layout
8
The layout is how the data columns are organized on the template. You have two main sections
to a template: a header and lines. The header information applies to all the lines when the data is
uploaded to Oracle. S
P
Content
P
A
The content is a text file that you can import into your template. You can use this feature if you
have an external system that outputs text file and you want to import that into the template.

The layout is divided into two important sections-

1. Required fields, where all mandatory parameters need to be aligned as per the
requirement.
Instruct parameters can be used to provide some tips to users who are using this
WEBADI for uploading data
2. Optional fields are non mandatory fields, we need to select the ones which needs to be
available in our custom integrator
