Detailed Profitability
Detailed Profitability provides a single-step allocation of pools or rates from a single source to a destination for the purpose of analyzing profitability. Detailed Profitability utilizes a relational database for model artifact storage, calculations, and reporting views.
A Detailed Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management model employs a user-defined schema to organize relational tables with existing data and associated lookup table to extend that data. Data for the Detailed Profitability model is housed in relational databases only.
You create the model in the Profitability Applications Console, and define the business dimensions, aliases, and measures within your organization. Within Profitability and Cost Management, the data is mapped to the application to enable you to build the Detailed Profitability model. The application can handle extremely large volumes.
The application does not use a hierarchical structure, but processes all allocation in a flow between a single Source and Destination combination. Allocation is handled through a restricted MeasuresDetailed dimension, rather than creating an AllocationType as in Standard Profitability. The MembersDetailed dimension contains a limited set of members to process all allocations.
