7 Export/Import Configuration

This chapter explains the export/import of schedule configuration and of custom entities configuration in POM.

Schedule Configuration

Overview

POM provides a feature, in the user interface, to export and import schedule configuration data such as data retention limits, throttle limits, enable/disable flags, schedule times, notifications configuration, and so on.

This feature can be used in two ways:

1. Data exported on a specific environment can be imported back on a different environment without any modifications. This is a typical use case where the batch schedule on a certain environment, such as Stage, is set up and fine-tuned according to a customer’s requirements. This includes specifying which jobs should or shouldn’t run. It includes ad hoc flows configuration. It includes specifying the times certain cycles or flows will start. It also includes specifying the e-mail addresses that will receive certain notifications and how long to keep those notification in the system before purging them.

Once the schedule is configured and fine-tuned (on Stage, for example) the export/import feature can be used to export the configurations from Stage and import them back into production.

Note

The user has the option to export to a spreadsheet or a JSON file. In this first use case, it is recommended the user exports to a JSON file then imports it back into the other environment.

2. Data can be altered in the exported spreadsheet then imported back into the same environment. This is useful at provisioning time where an environment is first set up with the default batch schedule configuration. A user would then export the default configuration, then modify that configuration on the spreadsheet to conform to the customer’s needs. The spreadsheet is then imported back into the same environment, applying the desired configurations.

Implementation Guide G58508-01 Copyright^© 2026, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

Note

When importing the spreadsheet on the Batch Administration screen, the user will have the option of importing job-related configuration or scheduler-related configuration (run times) or both. Refer to the “Batch Administration” section in the POM User Guide for more details. Also, note that the job type cannot be changed by the import configuration, and job configuration is updated on the target only if the job types match.

This chapter describes each tab in the exported spreadsheet, along with the data on each sheet. It also indicates which fields can be modified.

Schedule Info Tab

This is an informational only tab. No fields are modifiable on it.

Table 7-1 Schedule Info

Field	Description	Modifiable?
Name	Schedule or application name.	No
Display Schedule Name	Display schedule name used on POM UI, reports and mail notifcations.	No
	**Note:**This feld is not modifable using the export / import feature. To modify it, refer to the Schedule Tabsection of the Batch Schedule Spreadsheet Template appendix of this guide.
Version	Schedule version.	No
Installation Date	Date the schedule was uploaded into POM.	No
Customer Name	This is used on notifcations to identify which customer a notifcation is for.	No
Environment Name	This is used on notifcations to identify which customer’s environment a notifcation is for.	No

Schedule Configuration Tab

This tab contains schedule level settings.

Table 7-2 Schedule Configuration

Field	Description	Modifiable?
First Run Business	Date when batch was run for the frst time.	No
Date	See subsection “Business Date Explained” in
	the “System Confguration” section of the POM User Guide.

Table 7-2 (Cont.) Schedule Configuration

Field	Description	Modifiable?
Data Retention Days	Number of days historic data is to be retained in POM.	Yes - Recommended value is 30 days.
Long Run Average Multiplier	Number that is multiplied by a job’s average run time to determine a threshold. When a job’s run time exceeds this threshold + a Long Running Tolerance Level, the job is deemed long-running. For a complete explanation of how a job is deemed long-running, see the Long Running Jobssubsection of the Batch Jobsubsection of the Batch Schedule section of the Batch Concepts chapter of this document.	Yes - Usually a number between one and three.
External Dependencies	Indicates whether POM will respect external dependencies or not. They are usually dependencies on customers’ internal processes.	Yes - Valid values are Y or N.
Inter-schedule Dependencies	Indicates whether POM will respect external dependencies or not. Those are dependencies on other schedules.	Yes - Valid values are Y or N.
Callback mode	This is also known as External Status Update Mode. Depending on the value, the customer’s system is notifed of success or failure of any job in the entire schedule. The value set here is overridden by this same setting for any individual job defned on the other job-specifc tabs.	Yes - Valid values are ALL, FAILED or NONE. When value is NONE, no callback is made. When value is ALL, callback is made on either success or failure. When value is FAILED, callback is made only on failure

Throttling Tab

At this time, this tab should only be used to set throttle limits at the application level. Throttling is a technique used to limit the number of jobs that can run concurrently for a specific application. Throttling limits are set so a server’s resources are not overwhelmed by too many concurrently running jobs.

Note

Previously, throttle limits could be set at the application level and/or at the module level. Now they can only be set at the application level.

Also note that this tab was intended to provide the capability to enable/disable whole applications or modules. This is not functioning at this time. In order to achieve this objective, filter on application on the Nightly Jobs Configuration, Recurring Jobs Configuration or Adhoc Jobs Configuration, then change all enabled flags to ‘Y’ or ‘N’ as desired. For enabling/ disabling whole modules, this has to be done on the Batch Administration screen at this time.

Job Dependencies Tab

This tab contains the definitions of all intra-schedule dependencies (or job dependencies within the same schedule) for all cycles (Nightly, Recurring and Adhoc). External, inter-schedule dependencies and execution links are defined on the Job External Associations tab.

Only the Enabled flag can be changed on this tab. Caution should be exercised when disabling a dependency, as in certain situations this can cause a job to run before data is processed by the predecessor job. This can therefore cause data corruption.

Table 7-10 Job Dependencies Configuration

Field	Description	Modifiable? –Possible values
Job	Job name.	No
Process	Process name to which the job belongs.	No
Cycle	Nightly, Adhoc or specifc recurring/hourly cycle.	No
Predecessor Process	Process name to which the predecessor job belongs.	No
Predecessor Job	Job which must complete before the job defned on the current row can run.	No
Enabled	Flag indicating whether this dependency is enabled or disabled.	Yes – Valid values are Y or N.

Job External Associations Tab

This tab contains the definitions of External dependencies, inter-schedule dependencies and execution links, so all dependencies other than the intra-schedule dependencies described in the previous section.

Note

New external associations can be added in this tab.

Implementation Guide G58508-01 Copyright^© 2026, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

External dependencies are usually those defined for customer processes. These are associated with a POM endpoint that the customer calls to satisfy the dependency.

Inter-schedule dependencies are those associated with another schedule. For instance, a Retail Insight job can be made to wait for a Merchandising job to complete.

An Execution link is a special dependency that sets up an application’s schedule to be invoked based on a completion of a job in another application’s schedule. For instance, the Retail Insight schedule can be set up to be invoked when job A completes in the Merchandising schedule.

Table 7-11 Job External Associations

Field	Description	Modifiable? – Possible values
Job	Job name.	Yes – Needs to be a valid job name already defned on the nightly schedule.
Process	Process name to which the job belongs.	Yes – Needs to be a valid process name already defned in the nightly schedule.
Cycle	Cycle name.	Yes – This can only be Nightly.
Association Type	Type of dependency.	Yes – Valid values are Internal for Inter-Schedule, External and EXEC_LINK
External Schedule	Name of the schedule containing the inter-schedule dependency or execution link.	Yes – This must be an existing valid schedule defned in the same instance of POM. This is only required for inter-schedule dependencies and execution links.
External Job	Name of external job.	Yes – In the case of an external dependency, this is the name that will be included in the payload of an endpoint called by the external system, such as the customer’s. In the case of inter-schedule dependencies and execution links, this is a valid job name defned in the dependent schedule.
External Process	Process name to which the external job belongs.	Yes – This is required for inter- schedule dependencies and execution links. It’s the process name associated with the external job.
Enabled	Flag indicating whether this dependency is enabled or disabled.	Yes – Valid values are Y or N.

Scheduling Flows Tab

This tab and the next (Scheduling Adhoc Tab) contain multiple configurations for scheduling flows or processes to run at specified times.

This Scheduling Flows tab contains the definitions of scheduled run times for the Nightly and recurring flows.

Implementation Guide G58508-01 Copyright^© 2026, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

It simply contains one row for the Nightly flow stating the time when the Nightly processes will start every day. In case of weekly configuration, nightly flows can contain multiple rows stating the different times for each day of the week to start the task.

The rest of the tab contains rows for each recurring flow, with columns for each of the hourly cycles making up the flow. For each cell at the intersection of Flow and hourly cycle, the time is entered for when the cycle is to start running. At present, there is a maximum of 24 hourly cycles that can be defined which, when spaced equally, would run one hour apart. Times are optional, so a blank cell indicates that the cycle will not be scheduled to run.

Note

Although there is no validation that cross-references the presence of a time in a cell with the enabling of the cycle on the Flows Configuration tab, ideally these would match up. This means that, if you enter a time for running an hourly cycle, the same intersection on the Flows Configuration tab should be ‘Y’. However, it is conceivable to enable the cycle on the Flows Configuration tab but not schedule it, leaving the option open to schedule it as needed. In fact, this is the recommended practice: Enable all hourly cycles and only schedule a few as needed, but have the option to run more to catch up when necessary.

The timezone region ID entered in cell B is used for all times entered for all subsequent cycles on a given row. It is possible to specify a different timezone for select time cells (for example, 5:00 America/Chicago).

Note

If the timezone region ID is null in the database, UTC is exported as the default into cell B of this tab.

Frequency entered in the Frequency cell denotes different task frequencies like Daily and Weekly.

Day of week entered in the corresponding cell denotes the day on which the task is to be executed. It is left blank when the frequency is DAILY.

Table 7-12 Scheduling Flows

Field	Description	Modifiable? – Possible values
Flow	Flow name.	No
Timezone Region ID	Timezone corresponding to the time entered in the subsequent cell(s). Timezone region ID is required, rather than a UTC offset (such as “UTC-06:00”). This is to accommodate Daylight Saving Time.	Yes – Valid timezone region IDs such as US/Eastern can be found as TZ database name at https:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ List_of_tz_database_time_zones
Frequency	Task frequency	Yes – Valid values for this tab: DAILY, WEEKLY

Recurring cycle 1	Enter a time in this cell to schedule recurring cycle 1 to run at that time. Leave blank to forego scheduling recurring cycle 1. It is possible to not schedule the cycle by default but elect to run it manually if needed.	Yes – Enter a valid military time format such as 6:00 (6am) or 22:00 (10pm). Confict with the Nightly batch fow should be avoided as POM will skip running a recurring cycle if its start time is elapsed while Nightly is running.
Recurring cycle 2	Enter a time in this cell to schedule recurring cycle 2 for running at that time. Leave blank to forego scheduling recurring cycle 2. It is possible to not schedule the cycle by default but elect to run it manually if needed.	Yes – Enter a valid military time format such as 6:00 (6am) or 22:00 (10pm). Confict with the Nightly batch fow should be avoided as POM will skip running a recurring cycle if its start time is elapsed while Nightly is running.
Recurring cycle n	Enter a time in this cell to schedule recurring cycle 1n for running at that time. Leave blank to forego scheduling recurring cycle n. It is possible to not schedule the cycle by default but elect to run it manually if needed.	Yes – Enter a valid military time format such as 6:00 (6am) or 22:00 (10pm). Confict with the Nightly batch fow should be avoided as POM will skip running a recurring cycle if its start time is elapsed while Nightly is running.

Scheduling Adhoc Tab

This tab contains the definitions of scheduled run times for the Adhoc processes.

Interval	Indicates an interval number of minutes the at which the task should run again.	Yes – Valid values: Any positive integer number of minutes starting from 1. For example: 5, meaning this Adhoc will run every 5 minutes.
Limit Occurrences	Relevant only when frequency of EVERY:x is used. If a Limit Occurrences value is entered, the process will run a maximum of times equal to the specifed limit.	Yes – A positive integer. For example: Frequency of DAILY with a Limit Occurrences of 4 and Interval 2 means the process/fow will run every two minutes a maximum of four times
Prevent start during nightly	A fag which, when set to Y, indicates that this process is not to be started when the Nightly cycle is running. If the Scheduler tries to start a run while Nightly is running, the execution’s status is set to Error with an Info message of “Nightly started running so can’t run the process.”	Yes – Valid values are Y or N.
Schedule Time	Entering a time in this feld causes the process to be scheduled at that time in case of a DAILY frequency or to start the frst run at that time in case of an EVERY:x frequency. Leaving this feld blank causes the process to run immediately or the frst run to start immediately when the scheduler day starts. If a specifc time is entered in this feld but the scheduler day starts after that time, the process will be scheduled for the next day at that time.	Yes – Enter a valid military time format such as 6:00 (6am) or 22:00 (10pm).
Enabled	Flag indicating if this process is to be scheduled.	Yes – Valid values are Y or N.

Notification Tab

This tab contains all POM-defined notification types and associated e-mail addresses for which an email notification will be sent. For a list of notification types, refer to Emails and Notifications.

This tab contains three different types of rows:

• The ALL row lists all email notifications (for each notification type) for which an email notification will be sent. This applies to all schedules.

• The schedule row lists all email notifications (for each notification type) for which an email notification will be sent. This applies to just the specified schedule, (for example, MERCH ).

• Each row thereafter will correspond to a Job, and applies to only that Job. Entering email addresses on this row ensures that the email is notified only when the Notification Event occurs on that Job.

Custom Entities Configuration

Custom Entities include custom flows, processes and jobs. POM provides a feature, in the user interface, to export and import configuration of these custom entities.

Custom entities exported on a specific environment have to be imported back on a different environment without any modifications. Once these are configured and fine-tuned on an environment (for example, Stage) the export/import feature can be used to export the configuration as a JSON file then import it back into another environment (for example, production).

Note

Custom entities configuration can’t be exported as or imported from spreadsheet. Only JSON export/import feature is supported for custom entities.

Following are the validation rules for custom entities import:

• If custom flows/processes are present in both source and target environments, importing custom entities won’t add new entities, meaning the makeup of custom Flows or Processes in the target environment can’t be altered.

• If custom flows are not present in the target environment, import will create these custom flows in the target environment.

• If custom processes are not present in the target environment, import will create those in the target environment.
