Households Reporting Subject Area

Availability

This subject area is available only in the Oracle CRM On Demand Financial Services Edition.

Business Purpose

The Households Reporting subject area provides the ability to generate reports on households for the Contact dimension. This subject area enables advisors and their managers to answer questions, such as the following:

• Which of my clients belong to which households?
• How are the household assets in my book of business divided among my clients?
• What are my top households by total asset value?

The Households Reporting subject area also has a Portfolio dimension that can be used to report on information of associated portfolios of household contacts. The Portfolio dimension has an indirect relationship with Households (through Contacts) and so the Portfolio dimension attributes can not be used directly to analyze the household metrics. You can combine household reports with portfolio reports to provide an enhanced client service by understanding clients as members of a household.

Usage Notes

The Contact dimension includes a Book hierarchy, which enables you to analyze metrics and related attributes at any level.

The Portfolio dimension normally includes non-financial assets such as vehicles unless your administrator has specifically excluded such non-financial assets in Portfolio lists using the Exclude Vehicle / Asset Records from Portfolio Accounts option in the Company Profile page.

Optimized Filtering Fields

This subject area has fields that are optimized for reducing the query time when they are used in filters. Optimized fields end with the words Code or UTC. For example, the Contact dimension has a Contact Type field. There is also a Contact Type Code field, which is the optimized version of the Contact Type field.

This method is faster than using the standard field. For more information on using optimized filtering fields, see Using Optimized Filtering Fields.
