To burst Fusion HCM BI reports to SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol), you can follow these steps:

1. Configure SFTP Server: Ensure that you have access to an SFTP server where you want to transfer the reports. You should have the necessary credentials (hostname, username, password or SSH key) to connect to the server.

2. Create Bursting Definitions: In Oracle Fusion HCM, set up bursting definitions to specify which reports should be sent to SFTP. This allows you to customize the distribution of reports.

3. Schedule Bursting Job: Schedule a job in Fusion HCM to run the bursting process at a specific time. This job will generate individual reports for each recipient based on your bursting definitions.

4. Specify SFTP Destination: In your bursting definitions, specify the SFTP destination details. This includes the SFTP server’s hostname, port, username, and the directory path where you want to store the reports.

5. Security and Encryption: Ensure that your SFTP server is configured with proper security measures, such as encryption, to protect the transferred data.

6. Test the Transfer: Before automating the process, test the SFTP transfer with a few reports to verify that the connection and destination settings are correct.

7. Automation: Once you’ve confirmed that the SFTP transfer is working as expected, you can automate the bursting and SFTP transfer process by scheduling it to run regularly, such as daily or weekly.

8. Monitoring: Set up monitoring for the SFTP transfers to ensure that reports are being sent successfully and without errors. This can involve setting up alerts or notifications for any issues that may arise.

9. Secure Data: Make sure that the data being transferred to SFTP is secure and compliant with any data privacy regulations that may apply to your organization.

10. Backup and Retention: Implement a backup and retention policy for the reports stored on SFTP to ensure data integrity and compliance with data retention requirements.
