Extending Your Implementation

You can enhance your implementation with additional features available on the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud platform.

For example:

  • Configure a pipeline job in Data Integration. The Pipeline feature enables you orchestrate a series of jobs as a single process across all those steps. In addition, you can orchestrate EPM Cloud jobs across instances from one location. Using the Pipeline, you have better control and visibility of the full extended data integration process for preprocessing, data loading, and post processing jobs.
  • Configure IPM Insights. IPM Insights analyzes past data and predicted data, helping you find patterns and insights into data that you might not have found on your own. See Configuring IPM in Administering Planning.
  • Implement the Approval process to manage the process in your organization. See Managing Approvals in Administering Planning.

    Note:

    An approval unit hierarchy with a secondary dimension can be set up only for a specific dimension if the workflow needs be set at that level. Support for a secondary dimension for approval hierarchy is not supported for the Rolling Forecast form. The Rolling Forecast form inherits security of any members of secured dimensions.
  • Create reports.
  • Configure valid intersections.
  • Additional configurations for extended forms, dashboards, and rules.
