EPM Data Quality Customer Challenges - Process

• Lack of automated support for financial restatements

• Limited or non-existent audit trails• Weak controls around data &

meta data collection• Business function owned by IT

Data Management can become a real headache!

6

What is Financial Data Quality Management (FDM)?

• Combines four functions/processes– Collection and transformation of financial data– Management of periodic process to collect and

transform data– Documentation of internal controls to support

compliance– Investigation of audit trails, drill through and write

back to source• Data Quality is no longer an optional feature,

but a requirement

7

Oracle EPM System Delivers Confidence with FDM

Audit Trails• Integrated Control questions• Store current and historical

mapping definitions, docs• Allow dynamic drill through

to source ERP and files• “Defendable” Data

Data Collectionand Transformation

• Read and interpret G/L trial balance files and ERP sources

• Mapping validation againsttarget system dimensions

• Data & meta data integrity checking against data validation rules

Internal Controls• Source financial document

archival• Prepackaged audit and

internal control reports• Comprehensive role based

security

RepeatableProcesses• Single standard and

defined solution for any target application

• Standardized database schema• Standard upward data certification process• Fast turn around times

End users “Import” their source financial data (from files, DB’s or ERP)

into FDM eliminating all manual changes ensuring complete accuracy.

Import from Any Source

12

Invalid dimension mapping problems are identified for easy correction. FDM allows for

simple or complex cross-dimensional and conditional mapping of data.

Smart Dimensional Mapping

13

End users are given feedback on the quality, accuracy, and completeness of the data that they loaded to their

application, so they are accountable, and can participate in

the data integrity management process. Additional adjustment data may be loaded via flat or Excel files.

User Driven Data Validation Rules

14

FDM Reports

The Intersection drill-down report allows for a view of all current source to target

maps for all dimensions in one view, with values. The report is available in

PDF, Word, Excel, HTML and RTF formats by default.

15

Visibility Through Dashboards

The Close and Controls documentation status report provides further visibility into the process. See quickly who has loaded data into the application and full status of the data

load portion of the close process.

16

Sarbanes Oxley control questionnaires allow end users to attest to the validity of

financial data.

Business process areas are grouped into sections and questions can be tied to

activities for monitoring and testing. Built in workflow allows for promotion of responses to the next review level.

These questions apply to Section 302 Review Certification, as well as monitoring

the 404 control framework.

Supports Sarbanes Oxley Certifications and Assessment Requirements

Drill-Through to Source System to Audit Data

• From HFM, Planning, Financial Reports and Smartview

*Drill through from Enterprise 6.5.1 to FDM only

18

Planning to GL Write-backGoing beyond just drill-back…

• Write data from Planning, back into the General Ledger– Data used to generate plan vs. actual reporting details– GL interface tables populated as result of process– Standard journal import process used to load into ERP

• Budget Source– EPM version 11.1.2 – Planning, ASO and/or BSO

• Write-back GL Targets– PeopleSoft 9.0– EBS 11.5.10 cu2– EBS 12.0.6– EBS 12.1.x– Budgets, or Journals

19

Public Sector Planning Support

• Data, metadata, GL drill-through and write-back supported• Integration of Peoplesoft HR data

– Employee / Position Member Properties– Position / Employee Assignments– Position / Employee Earning Distributions– Job Codes / Salary Grades / Salary Steps– Map source PSFT HR fields to target PSB accounts
