Financial Close Management Integration with FDMEE

As part of the overall Financial Close process, Oracle Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management, Enterprise Edition enables data load from Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and files to EPM Applications. Oracle Hyperion Financial Close Management, which manages the period end close activities, initiates data load activities from within Financial Close Management. As the financial close processes are time-bound, and work flow driven, Financial Close Management users trigger the processes based on task alerts and notifications.

Integration between FDMEE and Financial Close Management is achieved using the interactive mode. This type of integration enables Financial Close Management users to reach the Data Load Workbench of FDMEE by clicking a task link (URL) in Financial Close Management.

In this scenario, a user may respond to an email notification of a task to load data. When a user clicks the link (URL) in the mail, he or she can access the FDMEE from which to load data.

The Financial Close Management user transfers control to the Data Load Workbench and can continue with the rule execution process in an interactive way.

An example of the link (URL) is:

http://<YourServer>:19000/workspace/index.jsp?module=aif.launch&povLocationName=COMMA7DIM&povPeriodName=Jan-05&povCategoryName=Actual&povRuleName=COMMA7DIM

Parameters passed to the Data Load Workbench are:

  • povRuleName—Data Rule Name

  • povLocation—Location

  • povCategory—Category

  • povPeriodName—Period

When the URL is defined in Financial Close Management, note the following:

  • The URL requires all parameters.

  • When a parameter has a space, enter the parameter with the spaces, but do not specify quotation marks ("()") around the parameter. (Parameters are passed in a standard URL request format).

  • The delimiter is "&" in the URL.
