3 Course Note – Accounting Knowledge While not a hard and fast prerequisite, a level of accounting knowledge is needed for this course and for consultants implementing Oracle Hyperion Financial Management Much of the product and its implementation focuses on accounting more than IT issues This course does not address the installation of the product or the operating system, server setup, and network requirements involved in a typical implementation Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

4 Course Note – Course Material The designed flow of this course is to present the material via the manual with highlights in this Powerpoint deck and then go to the software for viewing, examination, and exercise These slides highlight key aspects of the manual but do not take the place of the manual The manual is not intended to be comprehensive product documentation: refer to the various PDF documentation The course is also designed with the assumption that an experienced consultant is teaching the course. The exercises are more free form to allow students to approach the topics as they see fit. An experienced consultant will be able to support the students in the various directions they go. The separate teach note document provides information to the instructor on how to proceed through the course; however, the teach notes, like the course, assume that the instructor is an experienced consultant. Software screen shots are included in the materials; however, the student’s learning will progress by direct usage of the software, not through reliance on just the screen shots Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

6 Overview – History Over 25 years of accounting and consolidation expertise in the development of the product Roots go back to Micro-Control, a DOS product developed by IMRS in the early 1980s Second generation product was Hyperion, later renamed to Enterprise when IMRS changed its name to Hyperion. In 2008 there were over 2,500 customers using Hyperion Enterprise and it is currently marketed by Oracle mostly to small and mid size companies HFM was introduced in 2000 as the third generation product and in 2008 had over 1,500 customers Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

14 Metadata Management – EPMA vs. Classic EPMA is a fairly new module (out for a couple of versions) for metadata development and management EPMA provides capabilities for sharing dimensions and members across multiple Hyperion products Newer features, such as Lifecycle Management, are being developed for EPMA Classic is the original metadata development and management method Customers upgrading tend to continue with Classic Partners tend to recommend Classic to customers due to familiarity and high degree of stability Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

15 Dimensions – Point of View The point of view refers to the combination of the members specified for each of the 12 dimensions Example, a report may have accounts in the rows and years in the columns – the remaining 10 dimensions would make up the point of view The point of view is typically how end users navigate through the dimensions to select what they wish to view, report, analyze, etc. Term and usage is similar to other Hyperion products Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

16 Metadata Best Practices – Labeling If base level members are reflective of the general ledger, then use the general ledger labels Calculated base level members should be alphanumeric and descriptive of the calculation Parent levels should be alphanumeric and descriptive of the parent Avoid spaces and semicolons Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

17 Dimensions – Key Design Consideration Generally, no parent member should only have just one child – is a waste of system resources that usually just duplicates the data Most harmful with the account dimension, somewhat with entities, and a little with customs Common error is to create parents now with the expectation that additional children will be added later – best to create the parents when needed Acceptable exceptions exist for the entity dimension for currency reporting and throughout for phased implementations Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

18 More Design Considerations In the manual metadata design considerations are included in the Metadata – Classic chapter If covering EPMA and not Classic in the course, refer to the Classic chapter in the manual for this information Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

19 Metadata Development – Classic There are two components to metadata development – Profile – one time setup of Year, Periods, and View dimensions – also lists languages for member descriptions – Metadata Manager – initial development and ongoing maintenance of Scenario, Account, Entity (and ICP via derivation), and Custom1-4 dimensions – also lists currencies, consolidation methods, and application settings Both of these components are part of the HFM Windows client software Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

20 Metadata Management – Classic Profile is created once – once an application created with a profile those dimensions cannot be changed If a change required, create a new profile and a new application Dimensions in metadata management can be changed over and over Metadata management can be done either with the Windows client or a text file - interchangeable There are integrity checks within the software when loading metadata to the application Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

21 Metadata Management - EPMA EPMA offers metadata management advantages when working with multiple Hyperion applications, whether HFM, Planning, etc. EPMA is web based tool – no Windows client Text file can be used to format metadata and upload Text file cannot be extracted, use separate utility Updates are entered and then deployed to the application An upgrade tool is built in to convert Classic application to EPMA – a one way upgrade!

22 Data Format HFM has a native data load and extract capability and format Data can be loaded as Merge, Replace, Replace by Security or Accumulate – Replace by Security and Merge are the two most common Journal data has a separate format and load/extract process Journal data or data net of journals cannot be extracted via the normal data extract process Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

26 HFM Rules Rules are written in VB Script and use most of the same syntax and techniques Rules are organized into parts called subroutines. HFM looks for specific subroutines for specific purposes and others can be used to help organize the calculations. Sub Calculate and Sub Dynamic are two of the “expected” subroutines. Comments may be added by placing an apostrophe in front of the comment. A variable is handy for storing something once and referring to it multiple times. HS.Entity.Member, HS.Exp, and HS.Dynamic are HFM functions. An If/Then statement is the most common way of restricting when a calculation is run.

27 HFM Rules Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

28 Rules – Standard Subroutines Calculate – runs whenever calculating an entity. Most rules go here. Translate – used to translate accounts with special rates. Runs when the currency changes from Value dimension members to. Consolidation – used to calculate ownership and eliminations when default behavior is not adequate Allocation – can be used to perform allocations; can also be used for other types of rules – execution is separate from the consolidation process Input – enables data input into parent level entities at value member – not recommended NoInput – disables data input into members. Strict limits on the functions that can be used. Dynamic – used for calculations where the result will vary based on the View dimension, like Gross Margin Percentage Transactions – specifies the accounts to be used in the intercompany transaction Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

30 Rules - Basics Use variables to store or calculate something and then refer to it later Restrict rules to run only when needed Restriction Techniques – If / Then (and variations) – Select Case (similar but better handles multiple options with the same consequence) – For / Next (processes a list of items, performing designated calculations on each) Rules with custom dimension members are self-restricting – will only run where valid HS.Exp “C1#OpeningBalance=C1#EndingBalance.Y#PRIOR.P#LAST” Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

33 Rules – Calculation Manager New with version 11.1.1 is Calculation Manager, a graphical interface to rules Use components to build rules Can also integrate VB script components Requires the application to be EPMA enabled – will not work with Classic application As of this release cannot use Select Case and cannot create/use functions Oracle working on a migration tool Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

34 Lists – Basics Member lists can be used for a variety of activities – Rules, grids, forms, POV navigation/selection System has several lists built in for each dimension that suffice for most needs – begin and end with brackets [ ] Additional lists created in a VB script style text file – can use Rules Editor to work with (rename file extension from lst to rle for most benefit) Load and extract similar to rules Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

35 Shared Services Shared Services is a separate module that supports the Hyperion EPM suite Key components are: – Security, including connecting to a company’s network ID setup and authenticating user IDs and passwords – Lifecycle Management – movement of items from one HFM application to another – Audit Reports Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

36 Security Areas of security: – Users and Groups – are provisioned (granted) access – Roles – tasks or software features that users or groups can do – consolidate, create journal, be an administrator, etc. – Classes – a go-between between users or groups and dimension members or web components Most security done within Shared Services Assigning classes to metadata and web components done in metadata management and HFM web For Classic applications, security can be extracted to a text file, modified there, and uploaded Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.

49 Intercompany Matching / Elimination Intercompany accounts use the ICP dimension to store the partner entity Intercompany balances are, by default, eliminated at the first common parent Intercompany accounts can be matched against others (like IC receivable vs. IC payable) or can be eliminated one-sided (IC sales eliminating to IC cost of sales [and netting against non-IC cost of sales]) Intercompany entries are made in the [Elimination] value dimension member Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

50 Intercompany Matching / Elimination Intercompany setup is done in metadata: – Which entities can be partners – Which accounts are designated intercompany – Which account is the plug account for intercompany account(s) The plug account will hold any out of balances among the intercompany accounts – If everything matches, the plug account will be zero Reporting is available for all users to analyze and reconcile intercompany balances Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only. Do not distribute to third parties. © 2011 Oracle Corporation – Proprietary and Confidential

51 Process Control Process control is subject to design and controls implemented by the administrator (see chp 7) Validations (edits) must be passed and the data calculated before signoff can occur Once a user signs off on the data, they lose the ability to change – any required change would have to be done by someone at a level above them or the data rejected back to them Signoff follows the entity hierarchy Accounts and customs can be signed off in phases: financials could be the first phase and supplemental data in the second phase Slide Content Contributed by: For Oracle employees and authorized partners only.
