EPM Spotlight Features

Be sure to review the details of significant feature(s) being introduced and changed.

  • Cloud EPM Platform:
    • In this monthly update, Oracle will upgrade selected Cloud EPM environments to Essbase version 21.7.xx. Oracle has already notified you if your environments are selected for this Essbase upgrade.
    • Starting with this update, Oracle is de-supporting the following legacy features:
      • Forms 1.0
      • Dashboard 1.0
      • Legacy List Pages application setting
      • Infolets
    • When working with book prompts in Smart View, prompts for the Descendants and Descendants (Inclusive) single member selection functions, the choice list in the Prompts dialog is now displayed in a hierarchical format by default, instead of a flat list format.
  • Narrative Reporting:
    • For conditional text on grids with merged column header cells or on column cells that have custom heading labels, the Gen AI-generated text now displays the underlying column member names or aliases, rather than the displayed custom or merged headers.

Business Benefit: Spotlight features are important enhancements that can significantly impact the Cloud EPM user experience.
