BI Migration in SaaS environment

Introduction

In an Oracle Fusion HCM Oracle Cloud Application Services (OCAS) environment, you can
tailor your implementation using several capabilities that enable customization and extension
of business objects (data), the user interface (UI), and business intelligence (BI) reports. For
instance, you can use Reports and Analytics features to customize reports to meet your
business needs.
When considering your extensibility implementation approach in an OCAS deployment, Oracle
suggests using a test environment to finalize customizations and extensions before migrating
them to production. The specific purpose of this article is to step you through the
recommended best practices for migrating BI customizations between environments.
Supported Fusion Releases: Release 6 and prior
OCAS-enabled: Yes. Direct Customer-enabled Transaction.

Prerequisites

• Ensure source and target OCAS environments (e.g. Test and Production) are at the same
patch level.
• Ensure that all reports have been customized, tested, and approved in the source
environment.

There is a very good Oracle White paper on this, which explains in detail the step-by-step operations needed to migrate the custom/modified BI Reports
