Understanding How to Use Delivered Content with the Balance Sheet Case Study

The One View Financial Statement components described in this case study were delivered with the software. Before you can use the delivered statements, you must import them into your system. You can download the One_View_Financial_Statements.zip file from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud. The .zip file contains all of the delivered statements, including the data selection and layouts. You can also access the .zip file from the Update Center.

If you are working with sample records for the accounts, business units, and other data that does not include the same sample records used in this case study, you might need to change the data selection to retrieve appropriate records.

See Delivered Financial Statements.

If the delivered OVFS components were loaded into your environment and you have permissions to work with the components, you can generate your own copy of this statement. To generate and view the statement:

  1. Select One View Financial Statements Versions from the One View Financial Statements menu (G0915).

  2. Enter BALSHTBYBU in the Statement Definition Name field and then click Find.

  3. Select the SAMPLE0001 line in the grid, and then select Run Statement from the Row menu.

  4. On the Select Statement Layout and Format form:

    1. Select Balance Sheet by Business Unit from the list in the Layout Name field.

    2. Select Portable Document Format from the list in the Output Format field.

    3. Click Submit.

  5. On the Work with Statement Versions form, select Submitted Statements from the Form menu.

  6. On the Work with Submitted One View Financial Statements form, select the financial statement you generated, and then select View Statement from the Row menu.

Note: If the delivered components are in your environment, you cannot create additional components in the environment using the same names. The steps in the case study instruct you to name the components that you create for the case study with your initials followed by the name of the component that was delivered.
Caution: Oracle recommends that you retain a copy of the delivered OVFS components before you make any changes to the components in your test or production environment. You can use the export function provided in the OVFS feature to create a .zip file that includes the delivered components. If needed, you could restore the original delivered components from the .zip file. See Using Export and Import Functionality in OVFS
