PBCS/EPBCS - ASO exclude shared & Dynamic

As you all are aware that Oracle releases patches to EPM cloud every month (EDMCS is released every 2 months) and the patches are applied on first-week of Friday in Dev and third-week of Friday in Prod I did a post long back about a challenge that I have faced in on-premise and how I have addressed that. New functions were released in Nov-2018 release of PBCS. Below is an excerpt from the readiness document. You can find the document here New Aggregate Storage Functions in Calculation Manager The following Aggregate Storage functions have been added to Calculation Manager.

EPM Cloud (PBCS/EPBCS/FCCS) - Report Bursting & Reports scheduling

The first product of Oracle EPM cloud was launched in 2014 and it's been 5 years and over the course of these 5 years, Oracle has every EPM product in cloud to what is available in on-premise. With so many products under the EPM belt each with its own functionality, there is a real need to have a single unified reporting tool that can handle all your reporting requirements across all your EPM products at one place. EPRCS (Enterprise Performance Reporting Cloud Service) is the Oracle direction to address all the reporting needs for any organization of any size. If your team is responsible for the management, narrative and external reporting with the ability to author, collaborate and a solid approval process, you definitely have to consider implementing EPRCS at your organization EPRCS can connect to your EPM Cloud products, Essbase cloud and also to your Fusion Applications Essbase app. It addresses all your financial, management, narrative and disclosure reporting.
