The document describes how to use the Batch Element Entry Spreadsheet Interface (BEE) to upload multiple assignment lines to elements or element sets in Oracle. Key steps include: 1) Creating a batch and saving it, which opens the BEE Spreadsheet Interface excel file. 2) Uploading data to the excel file carefully without changing formatting and using the correct effective date. 3) Uploading the flagged rows from the excel file back to Oracle using the upload function. 4) Checking the batch in Oracle to ensure successful uploading of lines.

1. Batch Element Entry Spreadsheet Interface
To upload Assignment lines to an Element or Element Set or for an Assignment to
Element Set or more than one Element, we can use BEE (Batch Element Entry). If there
are more number of lines, we can do so using BEE Spreadsheet Interface. First, we need
to give a name to Batch and then Save. Next, we click BEE Spreadsheet Interface, it will
open web form, follow the instructions and it will create macro enabled excel document
called Web ADI. We must be careful using this excel as formulas are embedded. Please
do not change the formatting this by going to format cells. Effective date is what is most
important as the data which will be uploaded into Oracle will be based on that date. So
before creating the Web ADI excel, do the date tracking accordingly. From the Add ins
Tab, You can see Oracle and in the drop drown there be upload, Click that. Upload the
flagged rows. Once uploaded, the message will appear as how many rows successfully
uploaded. Each row you copy or cut paste from other excel will be flagged, it will be
indicated in the first column with a symbol. Do not modify or delete it. Blank rows will be
rejected with a message in the extreme right column in Red. All successful rows will be
shown green in the message column.
Once Upload is done successfully, Go back to batch element entry screen. Retrieve the
Batch, check once whether the lines you have loaded are appearing. Click Process, no
need to validate again, already validated in the previous step, so select transfer and
submit. Concurrent request will be fired. Check once in the request window whether the
request is completed normal. Then come back to Batch Element Entry, Retrieve the
batch, check status shows transferred. That’s all folks, you are done. Screen Navigation-
