Database Connection Manager

Use the Database Connection Manager to manage reports, books, saved reports objects (row/column templates, grids), batches, and scheduled batches.

The Database Connection Manager provides the following information about each database connection:

• Name—Name assigned to the database connection by the user who created it

  For example, Vision:Plan1, or Vision:Plan2, or Vis1ASO.

• Value—Application and database name

  For example, if your application is Vision and your database name is Plan1, then the value would be Vision:Plan1.

Note:

Oracle Fusion General Ledger only uses Oracle Essbase as a database.

Users can select an existing database connection when prompted in Reporting Studio; for example, while adding a grid to a report. A database connection consists of a database name, ID, password, and several values that are different for each data source.

Note:

Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud only supports a native database connection. Connecting directly to the underlying Essbase cubes in EPM Cloud is not supported
