Managing Accounts

During the initial implementation of the Oracle Hyperion Tax Provision application, you must update the Account dimension to include the Tax account details. In addition, at the beginning of each provisioning period, you may need to add new account details. You can maintain accounts using one of these methods:

  • Metadata Manager—Create additional accounts or update existing accounts using the Win32 tool for Classic applications. For details on Metadata Manager, see the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Administrator's Guide.

  • Oracle Data Relationship Management—Create additional accounts or update existing accounts using Data Relationship Management. For details, see the Oracle Data Relationship Management Integrating Oracle Data Relationship Management Suite with Enterprise Performance Management.

  • Load Application Elements—Create an external APP or XML metadata file with the account information using a text editor, Microsoft Excel, or an XML editor. For file format and syntax information, see the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Administrator’s Guide.
