Functional Setup Manager (FSM) is an Oracle Cloud tool used for configuring and implementing modules like HCM, Payroll, Finance, and Benefits. It provides a structured process for setting up, testing, and deploying enterprise configurations. FSM is primarily used by implementers, project managers, and consultants to configure system settings, manage implementation tasks, and migrate configurations from test environments to production.
The implementation process begins with planning, where the project scope is defined. It then moves to configuration, where offerings, options, and features are selected based on business needs. Once configured, the system is tested in a controlled environment to ensure accuracy before deployment. Using the export/import functionality, configurations can be seamlessly transferred to production. After go-live, FSM continues to support system maintenance and updates.
FSM simplifies Oracle HCM implementations by automating task assignments, reducing manual setup efforts, and ensuring an efficient, error-free transition from configuration to production.
