Oracle Cloud EPM Platform

Oracle Cloud Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Platform is a framework of the technical and functional components shared among Cloud EPM processes. It enables you to have a more unified user experience and simplified administration across different business functions.

Cloud EPM Platform

Key capabilities

Smart View enables you to integrate ERP, enterprise performance management (EPM), and business intelligence (BI) data directly from the data source into Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook. Using Smart View, you can view, import, manipulate, distribute and share data in Office-based interfaces.

Ad hoc and free-form analysis for cloud and on-premises

With an easy-to-use interface that provides powerful capabilities without need for writing complex queries, Smart View can access cloud and on-premises Oracle sources. Analysis can be saved locally or centrally, and can be reused period to period with a simple one-click refresh.

Form and flex form interaction

With flex forms, working with predefined forms does not restrict powerful Excel features, as users can still take advantage of sorting, filtering, and other native Excel functionality.

Report design

With Smart View, you can leverage the capabilities of data retrieves for reporting. Once the data is available within Office, users can create reports, documents, and presentations based on a combination of data sources. Create reports in Office that can be refreshed periodically as needed.

Pre-created content access

There is no need to recreate content, such as charts or grids, within your source system. Whether you are importing in Word, Powerpoint, or Excel, the imported content can be refreshed directly in the Office environment.

Reports

Powerful reporting capabilities with built-in financial intelligence enable you to understand variances. Reports can be used interactively to provide analysis and drill-to-source, or can be run in report books. Reports can also be bursted and sent to users on a schedule.

KPIs and infolets

Critical key performance indicators are readily available to stakeholders via infolets on the user's home screen.

Web ad hoc query capabilities

Nonpower users can easily investigate the data to perform a more detailed analysis with next-generation ad hoc query capabilities directly in the web interface.

REST API

Comprehensive REST APIs allow broader integration into other processes and web services that fit with your company's IT strategy.

Integration with other applications

Cloud EPM content, including forms, reports, and other artifacts, can be integrated into Oracle Cloud ERP and other Oracle and non-Oracle applications. This provides comprehensive capabilities to users to get at the content they need, when they need it, where they need it.


Task management

Orchestrate critical processes

With built-in process and task management, users understand exactly what they need to do and when it needs to be done.

Comprehensive task types

Tasks can be manual or automated, and can be executed based on when precedent tasks complete or on a schedule.

Certifications

Critical EPM tasks, such as providing content for a financial disclosure, require certification. Oracle Cloud EPM's task management supports certifications that need to be completed before the task can be marked complete.

Report binders

Auditors often review the tasks to complete a financial close process. Creating a report binder from Cloud EPM task management allows you to easily deliver this for review by your auditors.
