Updating Supplemental Data Forms in Smart View

Using Oracle Smart View for Office, you can work directly with Supplemental Data Manager forms.

Your schedules and tasks for the selected period are displayed. You can only see those forms for which you are authorized. Depending on your current role, the available options such as Save Data, Approve, or Reject will change to match the associated role. If you have different roles, you may need to log on as each role to perform different operations.

Note:

Before you begin, you must install Smart View and the Smart View Extension for Supplemental Data Manager, and create a private connection to use with the extension. See the "Downloading and Installing Clients" section in Getting Started with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for Administrators and "Creating Connections to the Smart View Extensions".

Note:

For non-English locales, the Default option on the Language drop-down list in Smart View is not supported in Smart View extension for Supplemental Data.

You can perform these Supplemental Data tasks in Smart View:

  • View a Worklist of the forms that you need to act upon for preparation, approval, and posting.

  • View a list of the Collections in the system for which you have View security rights.

  • Apply filters on the data collected as part of the data collection process.

    Any filters or lists that you previously created for Supplemental Data are available in Smart View.

Note:

You will see only the forms and options that are available for your security access rights.
