Topics:

• Getting Started with Oracle Cloud: Oracle Cloud is the industry's broadest and most integrated cloud provider, with deployment options ranging from the public cloud to your data center. Oracle Cloud offers best-in-class services across Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
• Profitability Management Cloud Service: Profitability Management Cloud Service (PFTCS) under Profitability and Balance Sheet Management Cloud Service (PBSMCS) helps Institutions measure and manage profitability at the lowest level of detail, the account level, and allows for a rollup of profitability results across any dimension. The application provides robust Allocation functionality supporting both top-down and bottom-up Allocation methodologies and generates multidimensional Profitability Views.
• Admin Console: Use the Admin Console to perform System Configuration and Identity Management. It is a single point of access to manage identity functions and view administrative features such as Metering, Audit Trail Report and other miscellaneous configuration details in the Profitability and Balance Sheet Management Cloud Service (PBSMCS).
