    Purchase Order Import FBDI — interface tables

    Worksheet / interfaceWhat it holds
    PO_HEADERS_INTERFACEPO header — supplier, site, BU, document style, buyer, currency
    PO_LINES_INTERFACELines — item, category, description, UOM, price
    PO_LINE_LOCATIONS_INTERFACESchedules — ship-to, quantity, dates
    PO_DISTRIBUTIONS_INTERFACEDistributions — charge account, requisitioning BU

    Load with the Import Orders scheduled process. The same interfaces cover standard POs, blanket (BPA) and contract (CPA) agreements by document style.

    Key columns & gotchas (learned the hard way)

    • Bill-to / requisitioning / procurement BU must all align and be valid on every row
    • Supplier sites must be active, purchasing-enabled and assigned to the procurement BU
    • Buyers must be valid; invalid buyers reject the document
    • Duplicate document numbers from a prior load cause “already exists” errors — use batch keys
    • Use the correct, active document style; inactive styles reject
    • Header/line keys must be consistent — headers without lines are dropped

    Load process

    1

    Download the FBDI template

    Get the object’s FBDI spreadsheet (.xlsm) from Oracle’s File-Based Data Import guide for your Fusion release.

    2

    Fill in the worksheets

    Populate the required and conditionally-required columns; leave system-derived columns blank.

    3

    Generate the CSV & ZIP

    Use the template’s “Generate CSV File” macro, then ZIP the resulting .csv file(s).

    4

    Upload the file

    Run the Load Interface File for Import scheduled process, selecting the import job and your ZIP — data lands in the interface tables.

    5

    Run the import job

    Run the object’s import process to move data from interface tables to base tables.

    6

    Review errors & reconcile

    Check the import output/error report, fix rejected rows, reload, and reconcile record counts source-to-target.

    Frequently asked questions

    What FBDI imports purchase orders into Oracle Fusion?

    The PO Import FBDI, which populates PO_HEADERS_INTERFACE, PO_LINES_INTERFACE, PO_LINE_LOCATIONS_INTERFACE and PO_DISTRIBUTIONS_INTERFACE, loaded with the Import Orders scheduled process.

    Can I load BPAs and CPAs with the PO FBDI?

    Yes — blanket and contract purchase agreements load through the same Import Orders interfaces, distinguished by document style.

    Why do PO FBDI loads fail?

    Typically business-unit and supplier-site validity, invalid buyers, duplicate document numbers, inactive document styles, and headers without matching lines. Validate against the targets before loading.

    Loading a lot of data into Oracle Fusion?

    Syntra generates and loads FBDI/HDL for every object at scale — with source extraction, mapping and reconciliation built in. Skip the hand-built templates.
