Data Conversion

Clean data. Successful go-live.

End-to-end Oracle ERP data conversion for Fusion Cloud and EBS — FBDI, HDL, ADFDI pipelines, cleansing rules, reconciliation, and cutover rehearsals.

What We Do

Data conversion, treated as its own workstream.

Most Oracle programmes slip because data isn't ready. We treat conversion as a parallel workstream with its own lead, plan, and governance — from extract through cleanse, load, reconcile, and sign-off.

  • Object inventory and scoping — what converts, what is archived, what stays in legacy
  • Cleansing rules designed with business owners before loading
  • FBDI / HDL / ADFDI pipelines engineered for repeatable runs
  • Multiple cutover rehearsals with timed dress rehearsals before go-live
  • Reconciliation reports signed off by business for every conversion object

How does ETHX Softcon handle data conversion for an Oracle Fusion Cloud migration?

ETHX Softcon handles Oracle Fusion Cloud data conversion as a dedicated workstream with its own lead, plan and governance, using FBDI, HDL and ADFDI to load data from legacy systems. The six-step approach starts with scoping, which covers an object inventory, source-to-target mapping and a cleansing rules workshop. Data is then extracted from legacy sources such as E-Business Suite, SAP, JD Edwards, Workday or custom systems, and cleansed in workshops with business owners.

FBDI is used for high-volume Fusion ERP objects, HDL for HCM objects, and ADFDI spreadsheets for iterative corrections during cutover and hypercare. Each conversion object receives row-count, sum and balance reconciliation reports that the business owner signs off, with evidence kept for audit. ETHX Softcon recommends at least two, and ideally three, timed cutover rehearsals, each ending in a go/no-go decision, before the final load and go-live validation.
