How Languages Are Processed

As part of the source system registration, Oracle Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management, Enterprise Edition gets the list of available source system languages, in addition to the base language. The base language is typically the language selected when the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) source system is installed. Additional available languages that are not the base language are referred to as the "enabled languages".

Languages from the source system that are mapped to the languages defined in the target application are independent of the languages available for selection via the FDMEE browser selection. The languages available in the browser might be different from the languages available in the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) source system and the target EPM application. For information on languages that FDMEE supports, see the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Certification Matrix.

When you register a target application for use with FDMEE, the Default Language column on the Target Application Registration page is used as follows:

  • The languages displayed in the Default Language drop-down list are FDMEE supported languages. These languages are mapped behind the scenes to the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) source system languages.

  • The Alias dimension in Oracle Essbase and Oracle Hyperion Planning applications has a required "Default" member. The FDMEE language that you select when registering a target application is automatically mapped to the "Default" member. Because the FDMEE language is mapped to the source language for the member description, you map the base or enabled source language in the source system to the "Default" alias member. During processing, all other languages are mapped to the other alias members if the alias member exactly matches the FDMEE source language for the member description.

    Note:

    Language processing is the same for Essbase and Planning applications.

Note:

Oracle Hyperion Financial Management languages are processed based on the default language that you select on the Target Application Registration page.
