The highly recommended best practice is to activate your new UCC subscription into your Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications account followed by activating your Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse subscription into the same Oracle Cloud account as your Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications12

 You can create a dimension using Semantic Model Extensions and join it with any Fact table, whether it is a custom Fact table or an out-of-the-box Fact table. You can also join multiple dimensions with a single Fact table3

Based on a standard subscription, you can create two instances of Oracle Fusion Analytics Warehouse: one for development/testing, and a second for production use. You can use the development/testing instance to test new features or customizations before deploying them to the production instance3

The way that you can address your requirements in FAW when FAW does not move and replicate your entire security implementation from Fusion Applications is to evaluate your security requirements and utilize security customization features in FAW to meet your needs. FAW provides various security customization features, such as custom data roles, custom duty roles, custom security configurations, and functional groups, that allow you to define advanced data security and object security4. You do not need to set up SSO between FAW and Fusion Applications or open a support ticket for this purpose.

To scale up your associated Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW) and OAC as part of your FAW customization, you need an OCI Administrator with access to OCI pages for OAC and ADW instances. The OCI Administrator can use the OCI Console or APIs to scale up or down the compute resources (CPU cores) or storage resources (terabytes) for both ADW and OAC instances

To perform data validation from the FAW console, you need to ensure that you have the same data security privileges in the FAW instance and the Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) instance. This will allow you to compare the metrics between the two instances and verify their accuracy2. You do not need to have access to all data in the FAW instance or have the administrator privilege in the OTBI instance to perform data validation.

The way that you can enable the preview features in your environment is to ask your FAW Service Administrator to enable the preview features in your existing FAW instance. The FAW Service Administrator can use the Enable Features option on the Console page to turn on or off individual preview features at any time5. You do not need to open a Support Request (SR) with Oracle support or provision a new FAW instance for this purpose

To create custom data security to meet your data security requirements, you need a combination of steps in Security Console and the Security Configurations in the Semantic Model Extensions available at the FAW Console. The Security Console allows you to create custom data roles and assign them to users or groups5. The Security Configurations allow you to define custom security filters and apply them to dimensions, facts, or subject areas6. You do not need to use only the Security Configurations or modify the Data Security Assignment file for this purpose. 

The steps that you would take to override the default data security for specific users are to create a custom data role and set up data filters that specify the values for specific dimensions. A custom data role allows you to define custom data security filters and apply them to dimensions, facts, or subject areas. You can then assign the custom data role to the users who need to have different data access than the default2. You do not need to create a custom duty role or create reports with filters to override the default data security.

The tool in OAC that you should use to create your report in FAW using the FAW subject areas and the data sets that you created using Data Augmentation is Data Visualization. Data Visualization is a feature in OAC that allows you to create and share interactive visualizations, stories, and dashboards. You can use Data Visualization to connect to the FAW subject areas and the data sets that you created using Data Augmentation and explore the data using various charts, maps, tables, and filters12. You do not need to use Data Modeler or Data Flow to create your report in FAW, as these are not tools for creating reports, but for creating data models and data transformations

LBAC (Location-Based Access Control) is a feature that restricts access to Fusion Applications based on IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses. If LBAC is enabled on your Fusion pod, you need to identify a user who will be used by FAW to connect to Fusion Applications using password-based authentication. This user must have access from All IP Addresses in order to allow FAW to extract data from any location.
