Using the Data Entry Window

Use the Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management Data Entry window to directly add, edit, and verify data.

Standard data entry views that provide several predefined views are available upon deployment of the application. You can also create customized Edit Views that contain a set of measures (members of the Measures dimension), so you can easily view that set of data. This option is useful if you have sets of data that must be updated frequently.

You can create different types of data entry views:

  • Standard Data Entry views are available after deployment of the application and provide predefined views. See Standard Data Entry Views.

  • User-defined custom Data Entry view definitions are stored in the Profitability and Cost Management schema. The views are defined per application and are shared between all users. This functionality applies to named views only.

  • Ad-hoc views are stored in user preferences and are not shared between users. These views are created when the user selects measures, and then click Apply instead of Save.
