Availability

These subject areas are available in all editions of Oracle CRM On Demand.

Business Purpose

These subject areas allow you to report on Custom Objects 1, 2, and 3 metrics by account, activity, campaign, contact, lead, opportunity, service request, partner, date, and Custom Objects 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. They offer the ability to analyse Custom Objects 1, 2, and 3 metrics by various related objects. The reporting of Custom Objects 1, 2, and 3 is currently available only in real time. When analysing Custom Objects 1, 2, and 3, use only these subject areas.

Simple

Optimised Custom Fields

This subject area has custom fields that are optimised to reduce the query time when they are used in filters. Optimised custom fields are in folders where the name ends with Optimised Custom Fields or Optimised Custom Metrics, such as Account Optimised Custom Fields and Opportunity Optimised Custom Metrics. Numeric custom fields, such as those with a type of CUR, INT or NUM, are available as metrics in the optimised custom metrics folder, if the record type is the driving object in a specific subject area. For example, the Account record type is the driving object in the Account History subject area.

The following record types have optimised custom fields and metrics coverage in Oracle CRM On Demand Answers and one or more of these record types might be present as dimensions or facts in this subject area:

Optimised Filtering Fields

This subject area has fields that are optimised for reducing the query time when they are used in filters. Optimised fields end with the words Code or UTC. For example, the Account dimension has an Account Type field. There is also an Account Type Code field, which is the optimised version of the Account Type field. Similarly, there is an Indexed Date UTC field, which is the optimised version of the Indexed Date field. Using the optimised field in the filter generates faster queries. This method is faster than using the standard field. For information on using optimised filtering fields, see Using Optimised Filtering Fields. The following dimensions in this subject area have optimised filtering fields:

  • Account
  • Activity
  • Campaign
  • Contact
  • Custom Object 1
  • Custom Object 2
  • Custom Object 3
  • Lead
  • Opportunity
