2.15 Seed Data

Seed data in general is referred to as any data delivered with the standard product installation and is required to be present in the production environment for application to work properly. Seed data basically consists of Table with its associated data that are uploaded into the system through DAT files.

Seed Data screen in Oracle Financial Services Lending and Leasing displays the seed data details maintained in the system along with the updated seed data provided with the latest release or patch installation.

Note that, when you upgrade OFSLL from an existing version to higher version,
  • New seed data provided as part of that release is automatically updated into the system.
  • Seed data which are modified from previous release to current release needs to be manually accepted and updated into the system.

The modified seed data can have updates on base tables and/or its associated data and the changes can either be updated or skipped depending on the need.

Navigating to Seed Data screen
  1. Click Setup > Setup > Administration > System > Seed Data. The system displays the Seed Data screen.

    • View the factory shipped seed data and update/skip the seed data differences between existing and updated seed data in Factory Data tab.

    • View the differences between Factory data and Current data in Comparison Data tab
    • Download all or only the required table specific seed data in Download Data tab.
