Deploying Standard Profitability and Cost Management Applications to Essbase

You must do the following tasks before you can deploy Standard Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management application to Oracle Essbase. When you deploy Standard Profitability to Essbase, you use the model information from the application to create an Essbase database that can be fine-tuned for profitability and cost analysis without needing to understand a scripting language.

Standard Profitability and Cost Management model design contains the information needed to generate Essbase outline and the calculation script required by the Essbase component of the model. Each model requires access to the following databases:

• A relational database to store the model design

• An Essbase database that includes a Calculation database (BSO) and a Reporting database (ASO).

Note:

Multiple models can be stored in a database.

Deploying Standard Profitability and Cost Management applications to Essbase involves these tasks:

• Adding Stages to the Application

• Adding POV to the Application

After completing these tasks, you must deploy the applications to Essbase.
