Setting User Preferences on the Web

When you use Financial Management on the Web, you set user preferences through the EPM Workspace.

  To set user preferences:

  1. From the Workspace, select File, then Preferences, and then Consolidation.

  2. From the List of Applications, select an application.

    Note:

    The Current Startup Option boxes display your current settings. The system populates the list of applications, and Current WebServer and Current Cluster boxes, based on the Web Server and cluster that you used at logon.

  3. Optional: To change the Consolidation Application Startup option:

    1. For Alternate WebServer, enter the Web Application name for the Web server to which you want to connect. If you do not specify a name, the application startup uses the default Web Server (hfm).

      Note:

      The new or alternate Web application must be configured with the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Workspace, Fusion Edition Web Server. For details on configuration, see the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.

    2. From the List of Clusters, select a new application server cluster.

  4. For Decimal Character, enter one character to use for a decimal.

  5. For Thousands Separator Character, enter one character to use to separate thousands.

  6. From Default Language for Descriptions, select the language to use for descriptions.

    Note:

    The languages are listed in alphabetical order.

  7. Optional: For Extract Options, select Save all files in Unicode format.

  8. Take one of the following actions:

    • To reset the user preferences to their original values, click Reset.

    • To save your preferences, click Save.

      The preferences are saved to the database for the current application.

  9. Log off, and log on again for the changes to take effect.
