I am Back!!!

Hi Everyone

It's been a long time. Probably, 2 years and lot of things happened during this time.
My wife got pregnant in 2015 and we had a lovely daughter born in December 2015. New place far away from home with no second hand to help, I had to take a complete care of my wife and daughter due to the complications she had during pregnancy

This are settling down slowly and I have decided to move back to India due to health issues for my family to recover. It was a hard decision to make with lot of scope and opportunity in the Oracle EPM space that is available in US. I am trying to get pack in pace with all the latest advancement that is happening

Having worked primarily on Essbase for the past 10 years, my focus is completely on Oracle Analytics Cloud which was released on 17-Mar-2017. Seasoned consultants who had an early access to OAC has posted various posts on OAC and what it has to offer. I will not post what other experts have already posted but rather collate all the various posts in one post for all of you to take a look at it before you star reading my detail posts on OAC.

I am very late in the game as I have recently got access to the demo instance which Oracle provide to partners (Stay tuned for my next post) and started looking at the OAC. I also had the privilege to attend the OAC training which was conducted by Oracle Development Team exclusively for partners. I loved the training and it was completely opposite to what my initial impression was on OAC specifically about Essbase

More posts to follow.

Happy Learning!!!

EPM Cloud Tips & Tricks - #1

The first EPM cloud product was released in 2014 and it's been six years till date. I was recently part of an FCCS implementation project. I know what you might be thinking. Coming from completely essbase and planning background and been working on it for almost 12 years and doing an FCCS project? Well, it turned out that way and it was a change for me too than being in my comfort zone and took it as a challenge.  I have been very busy for over the past one year and I didn't really had a chance or time to get back to my blogging and sharing my knowledge. The project finally went live and I am going to share my bit of learnings. Some of it you might alread know The first tip is going to be an easy one and those who have worked in FDMEE / Data Management in the cloud, you might already know it. But, this is very important when it comes to FCCS as zeroes are valid from Balance Sheet standpoint Data Management by default doesn't load zeroes. Below is a excerpt from the document...

Copy Text data (Planning) as Copy Data (DATACOPY) in Essbase...Yes..It works!!!

Yes. You have read it right and I am talking right. There is a saying that if you understand a process end-to-end you open lot of possibilities for improvement / betterment and it suits perfect in this case As the title goes, we all have started our career in Essbase (atleast in my case) and moved to to different other tools. We might have received multiple requests / written different types of calculation scripts where we have to copy a subset of data from one combination to other combination. The real problem comes when a user who is well-versed with Essbase and even knows the technical stuff better comes with a requirement which blows your mind and you had to think / try every single possibility to convince him that this is not possible. The same thing happened with me Background We use planning application for Planning sessions, Yearly Budget and monthly forecast and initially the monthly forecasting in Excel (where they have numbers as well as text) and after moving to Ora...

Have you ever wondered what it's going to be I was so excited that I kicked-off the promotional offer and fired up my OAC instance. But, I was surprised and felt sad after looking at the instance that is in public cloud and the instance that is going to come in the next release. Not sure if I am missing anything here which will enable me to access the newer interface / newer instance The new interface looks sleek and looks a lot better than the previous interface. I am using the instance as parts of Hands-On lab at ODTUG Kscope18. Not sure till when this environment will be available. I will update this blog and make it more comparitive with what is available right now in public cloud New JET UI. I don't know if that is the right way to call it but that's what it says when you fire up the OAC instance new interface Less clutter and wa...
