l 13733894 -- For Mozilla Firefox version 4 or higher, you must install the Mozilla FirefoxXUL add-on to view the EPM Workspace logon page. The add-on uses XUL technologywhen Mozilla Firefox connects to the EPM System Web server. The add-on can be installedand configured by the end user, or an administrator can configure the add-on beforedistributing it to users.

For users to install and configure the XUL add-on:

1. Install the Remote XUL Manager add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/remote-xul-manager/ into Mozilla Firefox, and then restart MozillaFirefox.

2. In Mozilla Firefox, select Tools, then Web Developer, and then Remote XUL Manager toopen the Remote XUL Manager dialog.

3. In Remote XUL Manager, click Add..., and then add an entry for each host or domainname the EPM System Web server uses, then select File, and then select Close. Forexample, a typical deployment might have a test EPM System Web server atepmtest.example.com and a production server at epm.example.com. The RemoteXUL Manager can be configured with both host names (epmtest.example.com andepm.example.com), or with just the domain name (for example, example.com). Ifthe EPM System Web server is accessed using a short host name (for example,http://myserver/) or an IP address (for example, http://10.12.1.2/), add thesenames or IP addresses.

For Administrators to install, configure, and distribute the add-on to users:

1. Perform Steps 1 through 3 from the user procedure to install and configure the XULadd-on.

2. Open the Remote XUL Manager dialog, then select File, then Generate Installer, thenselect the domains, optionally customize a message for users, and then generate an XPIfile.

3. Distribute the XPI file using any convenient method, such as copying the XPI file to ashared network location or by email.

4. Direct users to open Mozilla Firefox, and then drag the XPI file into the Mozilla Firefoxwindow. In some cases, Mozilla Firefox will need to be restarted.

A standard message or the message you specified is displayed with the list of domains,and then Remote XUL Manager uninstalls itself from the users' machines. EPMWorkspace then functions normally.

Documentation Updates

Accessing EPM System Product DocumentationThe most recent version of each EPM System product guide is available for downloading orviewing from the EPM System Documentation area of the OTN website (http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/epm.html). You can also use the EPM SystemDocumentation Portal (http://www.oracle.com/us/solutions/ent-performance-bi/technical-information-147174.html), which also links to EPM Supported Platform Matrices, My OracleSupport, and other information resources.

Deployment-related documentation is also available from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloudwebsite (http://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/WelcomePage/get_form).

Individual product guides are available for download on the Oracle Technology Network websiteonly.

Copying and Pasting Code Snippets from PDFsWhen you cut and paste code snippets from a PDF file, some characters can be lost during thepaste operation, making the code snippet invalid. Workaround: Cut and paste from the HTMLversion of the document.

Location of Web Application DeploymentThe location of Web application deployment has changed. All references to this location in thedocumentation should be updated from:

MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/epmsystem1/domains/domainName

to:

MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/domains/EPMSystem/servers/serverName/logs

where serverName is the name of the WebLogic domain.

Location of ODL Logging for Web ApplicationsThe ODL logging location for Web applications has changed. All references in thedocumentation should be updated from:

MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/domains/EPMSystem/servers/serverName/logs

where serverName is the name of the WebLogic managed server.

Passing Data Using Streams Instead of FilesThe documentation for the “Passing Data Using Streams Instead of Files” property has beenupdated in the Oracle Hyperion Reporting and Analysis Framework Administrator's Guide asfollows:

This property alters the way data is transmitted between services and the Web application.

If yes is selected, servlets retrieve files from services using streamed input and output (I/O) anddirect connection instead of temporary file system storage. Data is transferred over a separatesocket connection between the Repository Services and the servlets.

If no is selected, data is transferred and stored in a file (or in memory if the data is less than 500KB) for servlets and the Service Broker.

In general, you should enable this option because streamed I/O is more efficient. If your systemhas a firewall between the servlets and the services, however, you should disable this option sinceit will randomly allocate the use of any available port on the service host. With the optiondisabled, files are sent directly through the Reporting and Analysis service ports already in useinstead of creating new socket connections for the file transfer.

Repository Item NamesWhen entering names for items in the repository such as files and folders, you can use uppercaseand lowercase letters and numbers. Spaces cannot be used at the beginning or end of foldernames. File and folder names can only use alphanumeric characters and underscores.

Starting with Financial Reporting Studio, Release 11.1.2.3, users can install more than oneversion of Financial Reporting Studio (for example a test and a development version) on oneclient machine. The installed versions of Financial Reporting Studio are displayed in theMicrosoft Windows Start menu folder and shortcuts, as well as the Uninstall panel.

Before accessing one of multiple Financial Reporting Studio versions, make sure that the versionsare installed on the client machine.

Note: Each Financial Reporting Studio version installed on a client machine must be installedin a different directory.

ä To install Financial Reporting Studio:

1 In Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace, select Tools, then Install, and thenFinancial Reporting Studio.

2 After the download is complete, close all browsers and then run the Financial Reporting Studio installeras an administrator.

Note: If a machine has multiple versions of Financial Reporting Studio installed, only one releasecan be accessed at a time.

1 From the Microsoft Windows Start menu, select Oracle, then Financial Reporting Studio <versionnumber>, and then Register Financial Reporting Studio <version number>, where versionnumber is the Financial Reporting Studio release to use.

2 From the Microsoft Windows Start menu, select Oracle, then the folder Financial Reporting Studio<version number> and then Financial Reporting Studio <version number>, to launch the OracleHyperion Financial Reporting Studio version registered in the previous step.

Variance and Variance/Percent Functions Results for #missing and #error

Replace the current descriptions in the sections in “Variance / Var” and “Variance Percent /VarPer” in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting Studio User's Guide for #missing and #errorresults with the following information:

Although every formula can have different results depending on the scenario, the following isthe expected behavior when the functions return #missing or #error results:

l Formulas with a single reference to a #missing value return #error

l Formulas with a single reference to a #error value return #error

l Formulas with a reference to a #missing value and a #error value return #error
