Hyperion FDM and ERPi 11.1.2.2: ORA-12504 on Import with ERPI-FIN-E

Question

Hi everyone,
We are implementing Hyperion 11.1.2.2 FDM with HFM (Target Adapter = FM11X-G6-A) and ERPi (Source Adapter = ERPI-FIN-E) running on ODI 11.1.1.6. Backend databases are all Oracle DBs. We have been able to successfully configure ERPi and ODI & successfully run a Data Load Rule with all green checks in ODI Operator. We have also successfully tested the full FDM workflow with load to HFM using the traditional flat file method.
We have also setup an FDM Location and Import Format (File Type = Adapter; Adapter = ERPI-FIN-E) for use with the ERPI Source Adapter. When kicking off an Import either manually via FDM Web or via Batch Loader, we are getting a grey fish, Information Bar with "Error: Import failed. Invalid Data or Empty content", and pop-up error dialog displaying "ORA-12504: TNS: Listener was not given the SERVICE_NAME in CONNECT_DATA.
While previous versions of ERPi Source Adapter have the "ERPi Database Server/Service" option, ERPI-FIN-E does not have this option. Additionally, we have tested the TNSNames.ora files SID's with SQL Developer and SQL Plus and they all seem to be working.
Has the "ERPi Database Server/Service" option moved somewhere behind the scenes? Another options or DBLink that needs to be setup somewhere else? Any thoughts or assistance would help.
Thank you.

Below are the contents of the "E:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_32\network\admin" and "E:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_64\network\admin" folders on application server. EPMD1 = ERPi, HFMD1 = HFM, FDMD1 = FDM, EPMD5 = R12.
Since we are able to connect via SQL Developer and SQL Plus to EPMD1, I believe these settings are OK, but open to additional checks if suggested.
EPMD1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = EPMD1.ges.+redacted+.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = EPMD1.ges.+redacted+.com)
HFMD1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = HFMD1.ges.+redacted+.com)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = HFMD1.ges.+redacted+.com)
FDMD1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = FDMD1.ges.+redacted+.com)(PORT = 1523))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = FDMD1)
EPMD5 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = tus1ebsdbsdin11.ges.+redacted+.com)(PORT = 15212))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = EPMD5.ges.+redacted+.com)
)
