    Hi All,
    I'm looking for a step-by-step approach for "manual" Oracle Database Migration. Basically, the minutes followed in a real-time production DB implementation.
    I assume the steps may vary for different setups. However any scenario-based docs will be of great help!

  • Oracle Financials for India - Local Chart of Account

    Hi,
    We have to implement Oracle Financials for India, I know that the calendar is from APR-MAR, but my question is: Is it needed to report the statutory books in a local Chart of Accounts or we can use our corporate ones based in US GAAP.
    Thanks and regards,

    Refer this query, you can get

  • Oracle Financials or Hyperion Planning for variance analysis??

    We are considering Hyperion Planning for our Departmental budgets/forecasts and I'm have a disagreement with a few piers. Was hoping you could help. It's my contention that the budgets/forecasts AND actuals should be populated in Hyperion Planning. A few of my piers contend that the budgets/forecats should be housed in Hyperion Planning and pushed down to Oracle Financials for variance analysis - in order to provide drill back capability into the transacations that caused the variance.
    Since H.P. is a consolidated system, I would think it's impossible to budget at a summary account level in H.P. and push it to base level/transaction level within Oracle Financials (one to many). In my view, the actuals should flow up from Oracle Financials, via FDM, into H.P. where variance analysis can take place? I would think drill back capability could be provided via FDM within Planning?
    Anyway, was hoping to get your thoughts.

    Hi,
    We are currently in the final phase of implementing Oracle Financials and Hyperion for the same purpose that you have described in your post. We use Oracle Financials to record actuals and then transfer it to Hyperion under the scenario 'Actual'. While the budget/forecast data in only entered/saved in Hyperion. There are several financial reports for variances that are generated out of Hyperion. So far, this arrangement is serving us pretty well. I second your point that in Hyperion, we can easily compare summary level data. We have Hyperion reports that do variances calculations for sub-totals. In fact, we are also using HP reports for consolidated statements such as Balance sheet, Income statement etc. The actual data for these statements is coming from GL.
    As for drill through functionality (from HP to sub-ledger details in financials), we are in process of implementing FDM and use it for both (1) loading data and (2) drill through.
    Hope this helps.

  • Start New Company Transactions in Oracle Financials

    Hi,
    Recently we have implemented Oracle Financials (All 5 Modules) in our Organization. Now the company is changing the name and wants to start Transactions afresh in that new company. This is a Single Org & Single Currency instance on R12.1 Version.
    Can anyone suggest the best approach for doing the same.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,
    Rohan

    Approach 1:
    Define a new BSV and disable the old one. This is the easiest method as no setups will be required.
    Approach 2 :
    If there is change in Registered Name and Legal Entity.
    Define a new ledger, LE and OU. and complete the setup same as fresh implementation.

  • Rational approach for Analysis Authorization:

    This post is regarding the implementation of Analysis Authorization.  Considering the role based approach; please let me know the optimized way to implement the analysis authorization such that there will be very low maintenance.
    For e.g. I have queries which need to be restricted at data level PLANT wise. So I mark the characteristic 0PLANT as authorization relevant. There are 150 plants so I create the 150 Analysis Authorizations and put each one of them in roles (1:1) resulting in 150 roles. In addition; 151th Role and Analysis Authorization for ALL plant access.
    Now to restrict the queries themselves, I create a Role with object S_RS_COMP , S_RS_COMP1 (For queries) ; S_USER_AGR  and S_USER_TCD( for  workbooks).
    Then I create a composite role  with above 2 single roles (one containing AA and other role for Query restriction)and assign it to user.
    Now suppose when I need to restrict data at some other level say DIVISION wise. Then I would be again creating analysis authorization for all the divisions and putting them in roles.
    Using this approach ; there would be many roles and analysis authorizations. Also during production support it may be cumbersome to debug the errors.
    Please comment if any other approach for implementing the above scenarios.
    Regards,
    Ajit
    Edited by: Ajit Nadkarni on Apr 4, 2010 5:47 PM

    Hi,
    I had a similar requirement where in we had 178 plants and each plant manager has to see their own site by default in the selection screen when they run the query.
    By defalut it should display there own site but its not restricted to only that site. Managers can also look into other sites but by default they wanted their own site to be displayed.
    So I have created DSO and did mapping with username and store. And in query I created a variable in plant of type customerexit and written exit in CMOd using I_STEP 1. This solved our requirement. But to restrict to particular site i guess we can extend the routine in cmod.
    Thanks

    Hello Saif!
    I'm more technically skilled than familiar with 11i funcationality, but in that past I have found that setting up an 11i demo environment has helped our app configurators.
    It is called 11i Vision, and is a demonstration environment Oracle offers. Setting this up, if possible, at your organization might be helpful to you. The Vision demo install is offered as an option in the regular installation CD set.

    Hi Sushanth,
    See the merchandise integration guide and the operation guide of RMS (pretty good for a starter, though not more than a glimpse.)
    Usually a specialized consulting firm will have the people with the experience and knowledge of these areas at hand to assist you.
    I think if you really want to have these questions answered, you must hire a specialist consultant - I don't expect the forum to fill in those gaps for you, but who knows.
    Also the CRP of an implementation project will deal with some of your questions, the CRP being lead by a subject matter expert (SME).
    Best regards,
    Erik
