This is the update i got Oracle for migrating Discoverer 11g to OBIEE 12c

They are very different products and so migrating from Discoverer to OBIEE is not easy

First you may have to migrate to OBIEE 11G

for that , please refer the below documents.

How to migrate Oracle Discoverer Data To Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 11g ( Doc ID 2067860.1 )

This Doc ID 2067860.1 is marked as Internal so customers would not be able to view it. Below is the content :

***************************************************

Goal

You are using legacy Oracle Discover and want ot migrate over to OBIEE / OBIA 11g.

All legacy Discoverer data needs to be moved over to OBIEE.

Documentation refers to a link with a conversion utility

Is this tool still valid?

Solution

If Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 11g software is already installed, then you will find the metadata conversion assistant (MigrateEUL.exe) in the following location of OBIEE:

ORACLE_HOME\bifoundation\server\bin

Documentation that describes how to use the metadata conversion assistant can be found in the following location:

ORACLE_HOME\bifoundation\server\document

If the OBIEE 11g software is not already installed it can be downloaded from OTN. For a windows client you can proceed as follows.

Navigate to Oracle Technet

Click on "Business Intelligence Suite EE"

When you reach the Download screen choose the most current such as : Oracle Business Intelligence 11g (11.1.1.7.0) under "Microsoft Windows" to download and unzip.

After installing the BI Server software, find the metadata conversion assistant as mentioned above.

Note:

This is an older utility and is "as is" unsupported and "use at your own risk".

Customers have used it with success but any issues cannot be addressed with Oracle support. Also, please be aware that this is Not available from 11.1.1.8.x and later. Further the converted RPD cannot be opened by later releases. Even in 11.1.1.7.1. w/PBs applied so use at your own risk

**************************************************************************************

once you are on OBIEE 11G , Then you can move to 12 c

Please go through the documentation for migrating from 11g to 12c OBIEE :

http://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1221/core/BIMIG/toc.htm

Let me know if you have further concerns regarding this,

Also would like to set your expectation that while performing these steps , If you face any error/issue , Please raise a new SR for better clarification and investigation
