HCM Extract? output using CSV, XML or PDF. OTBI can then accept a
data source in excel or XML format (SaaS customers will
need Oracle to set this up for them).

Would HCM Extracts support conversions The HCM Extracts tool is for outbound interfaces only. You
and inbound interfaces? use this tool to extract data in the supported layouts and
deliver that data in different file formats.
What is an extract type? Here is a list of extract types and their descriptions:
1- Full Profile (FULLPRF): Use this type for complete
employee and payroll data archives. You can also use this
extract type for all custom or seeded extracts.
2- Archive Retrieval (ARCRET): Use this type for reports
based on permanently archived data. For example,
payslip. This extract type is intended for seeded extracts
only.
3- Benefits Carrier (BENCARRIER): Use this type for
providing data to 3rd party benefits service providers. You
can also use this extract type for custom or seeded
extracts.
4- EOY Archive (EOYAR): Use this type for End of Year
archives (HR, payroll, benefits etc.). You can also use this
extract type for custom or seeded extracts.
5- HR Archive (HRAR): Use this type for all HR archives,
and you can also use for custom or seeded extracts.
6- Payroll Archive (PAYAR): Use this type for payroll or
payslip archives. This extract type is intended for seeded

7- Payroll Interface (PAYINT): Use this type for providing
data to 3rd party payroll service providers. You can also
use this extract type for custom or seeded extracts.

we support in the following table:

N Extract produces full output
Performs a comparison with previous runs
and will display entire row/data under this

Y changed.

Will Changes only extract work if one of Yes, this will work.
the DFF was changed? Changes only program compares current output (XML)
How does the HCM extract determine with previous run (output XML) and deliver the entire
that there are changes in the data? changed record.
When you run a Changes Only extract with parameter
value as Y, Attribute, Attrib_Old, the extract program
compares current output with previous output, and
identifies the changed items and extracts the result.
