Detailed Profitability and Cost Management Workspace

Accessed from Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace, the Oracle Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management workspace contains two main areas:

  • Use the Task Areas pane to navigate among the processes required to build, validate, and calculate the model and to report results.

  • Use the Contents pane to view task information, enter or modify data, and perform tasks associated with the creation and maintenance of a model and its data.


Use the main Detailed Profitability and Cost Management workspace to initiate tasks to build, validate and calculate the models.

The Profitability and Cost Management workspace includes these items:

  1. The main menu at the top of the window displays the common EPM Workspace menu options (Navigate, File, View, and Tools), and the Profitability and Cost Management main menu options, including Model, Allocations, Validate, Calculate, Job Status, and Help.

  2. Application Name tab shows the name of the currently active application.

  3. The Task Areas are used to select the tasks required to build, modify, validate model structure, and calculate models. You can also generate reports.

    Note:

    When you change a Task Area, the Point of View selection that exists in the current task is retained. This feature enables you to move from screen to screen without be required to reselect the POV. The POV selection state remains the same until it is changed by the user and the POV "refresh" icon is clicked.

  4. The Information Bar offers shortcut instructions for the currently selected task.

  5. The title bar displays the name of the window currently displayed in the contents pane.

  6. The contents pane displays the screen for the currently selected task, such as Stages or Driver Definitions.
