Spoke flows
The Oracle Financial Cloud spoke provides sample flows to demonstrate automating the Oracle Financial Cloud tasks. To customize a sample flow, copy it to a new application scope. Available sample flows include:
| Flow | Description |
|---|---|
| Get Accounted AP Invoices | Retrieves information about the accounted AP invoices. This flow triggers the Get Accounted AP Invoice subflow and includes the Look up Record Details action. |
| Import Journals | Imports the journal records from your ServiceNow instance to Oracle Financial Cloud system. To import the journal records, you must create the required records in the GL Interface module. |
| Import AP Invoices | Imports accounts payable invoice line and accounts payable invoice records from your ServiceNow instance to Oracle Financial Cloud system. To import the accounts payable invoice line and accounts payable invoice records, you must create the required records in the AP Invoices Interface and AP Invoices Lines Interface modules respectively. |
Spoke subflows
The Oracle Financial Cloud spoke provides sample subflow, Get Accounted AP Invoice, to demonstrate automating Oracle Financial Cloud tasks. The subflow retrieves the accounted AP invoice records and is used in the Get Accounted AP Invoices flow. To customize the sample subflow, copy it to a new application scope.

| Module | Description |
|---|---|
| Accounted AP Invoices | Displays information about the accounted AP invoices. This information is retrieved when the Get Accounted AP Invoices flow is triggered. |
| AP Invoices Interface | Displays the accounts payable invoice records. Admin must create these records in the ServiceNow instance in this module. The Import AP Invoices flow imports these invoices from your ServiceNow instance to Oracle Financial Cloud system. |
| AP Invoices Lines Interface | Displays the accounts payable invoice line records. Admin must create these records in the ServiceNow instance in this module. The Import AP Invoices flow imports these invoices from your ServiceNow instance to Oracle Financial Cloud system. |
| BI Report Paths | Displays information about the folder path where the required report is saved. The Get Subledger Balances and Get Code Combinations Details actions retrieve the subledger balances from these folder
paths. Admin must create two records for the two actions and specify the folder path in this module. |
| Get Currency Rates | Displays information about the currency rates. The currency rates are retrieved from the remote table, Get Currency Rates [sn_ofc_spoke_st_get_currency_rates]. You can use the remote table as reference and create another remote table for currency rates as per your requirement. |
| GL Interface | Displays the journal records. The Import Journals flow imports these records from your ServiceNow instance to Oracle Financial Cloud system. Admin must create the required journal records in this module. |
Connection and credential alias requirements
Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection. For more information, see Connections and Credentials.
Two connection and credential records are available along with the spoke. You must configure these alias record to use the spoke. See Set up the Oracle Financial Cloud spoke for more information.
