Predictive Cash Forecasting Considerations

Considerations for Predictive Cash Forecasting:

  • For integration with Oracle Cloud ERP, requires Analytical Views. Log a Service Request (SR) to request to enable Analytical Views.
  • Requires a separate instance to enable the Predictive Cash Forecasting application in Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM.
  • Predictive Cash Forecasting users must be provisioned to use both Cloud ERP and Cloud EPM.
  • Requires an EPM Enterprise subscription to enable Predictive Cash Forecasting.
  • Operational readiness of ERP business processes having data impacting cash flows, to be available in its most current and complete state for cash forecasting is important.
  • Availability of minimum 18 months of historical Receivables transactions with complete record of the related transactional activities is recommended to maximize machine learning model training. Machine Learning will be available in a future update.
  • During application enablement, you must select the Data Sources option to support integration with Fusion ERP. Enabling this option creates required dimensions, which can't be created later with incremental enablement.

  • Predictive Cash Forecasting applications are multi-currency only.

  • Predictive Cash Forecasting applications are Hybrid Oracle Essbase enabled in EPM.
  • Predictive Cash Forecasting applications provide Redwood Experience.

Access Requirements:

  • Set up access to both Cloud ERP and Cloud EPM applications using one set of credentials by defining the single sign on. This allows you to seamlessly access both applications with a single login.
  • Set up Cloud EPM connections to Cloud ERP using the Manage Enterprise Application option in the topology definition.
  • Use the Cloud ERP Manage Job Roles task in the Users and Security functional area to create user-defined roles, in addition to the predefined roles with the required roles and privileges for assignment to users.
  • Use the Cloud ERP Manage Data Access for Users task in the Users and Security functional area to assign users access to appropriate data based on their job roles.
  • Define entity level security in Cloud EPM that matches the Cloud ERP entity level access. To support web drill-through to data in Cloud ERP, security must match in Cloud EPM and Cloud ERP.
