Data Governance - People, Process and Technology

Why Financial Data Quality Management (FDM)?

• FDM helps alleviate data governance issues including the following:– Financial data collection

and transformation– Repeatable processes– Documented Internal

controls– Audit trails with drill-

through– Ability to write-back to

source systems

• Significant business challenges:– Disparate source systems– Inconsistent account

structure– Errors in data and metadata

collection– Financial restatements– Weak controls– Lack of visibility into

processes and controls– Synchronization between

ERP and EPM

• Benefits to following an FDM process:– Increased confidence in

data– Decreased cost of

compliance– Elimination of data integrity

risks– Documented and defined

repeatable processes– Improved cycle times

during periodic processing

FDMEE – HOW DID WE GET HERE?

24 – 26 February 2016

FDC Classic vs. FDM Enterprise Edition

FDM Enterprise Edition

* Metadata supported for EBS and PSFT

FDM Classic

FDMEE – Integration Strategy

• Develop direct “out of the box” integration– Sources prioritized based

on market demand`

• Open Interface Adapter– Use when “out of the

box” integration not available

– Licensing allows modification to ODI packages delivered with FDMEE

– Customer must populate interface table

• File based data loads– Any file format– Delimited or fixed width– Includes majority of

single byte and multi-byte encodings

Simple end user finance tool that provides complete source system coverage

FDMEE – Main Product FeaturesSource System /Import Format Define sources including files and ERPs, and then map the source columns/fields to dimensions in EPM

applications

Mapping Rules Identify how source dimensionality translates to target dimensionality. This is the heart of the FDMEE application

Data Load Rules Create an integration definition that can be reused each period. Uses a point of view specified by the user for period, category, etc.

Scripting Customize FDMEE processing using Jython or Visual Basic scripting

Reporting Modify seeded reports or create new reports using BI Publisher

Batch Processing Create batch definitions that can be scheduled and run in “offline” mode

Data Synchronization(New in 11.1.2.4) Select EPM Applications as an integration source, including HFM journals

Universal Data Adapter(New in 11.1.2.4.100) Select and source database table or view for direct integration (On-prem only)

MIGRATION METHODS FROM FDM CLASSIC TO FDMEE

24 – 26 February 2016

FDMEE Migrations- FDM to FDMEE Utility!

https://blogs.oracle.com/proactivesupportEPM/entry/fdmee_migration_utility

Oracle FDM to FDMEE Migration Utility

• Supported Versions– FDM 11.1.1.3, 11.1.1.4 or 11.1.2.x– FDMEE 11.1.2.4

• Most FDM artifacts– Except scripts and check rules

• Data from TDATASEG• ERPI upgraded to FDMEE

– Only 11.1.2.x supported if using ERPI with FDM

– Duplicate artifacts may exist after ERPI upgrade and FDM migration

• Oracle or SQL Server

• Migrated artifacts– Target Application– Global and Application Categories– Global and application periods– Logic groups– Check Entity and Check Rule Group– Import Formats– Locations– Mapping Rules– Data with workflow status and drill regions

FDM to FDMEE Considerations

• Features not migrated from FDM– Certification and Assessment– Tax adapter, Timeline, Enterprise

Adapter– Not all reports and APIs currently

exist in FDMEE• Batch processing included in core

FDMEE– Adapter suite not required by HFM

for batch processing• FDMEE included in Planning and

Budgeting Cloud Service– Scripting/custom reports not included

• Possible to migrate manually! (But why not use the utility?)– Utilize Excel and import/export

functionality of FDMEE– Manually convert scripts– Manually create and convert

application settings– Knowledge of SQL goes a long way

with validation and movement of data

CheckPoint can help with your FDMEE Migration!• CheckPoint has been using FDM before it was FDM!• CheckPoint has performed many small and large scale FDM Classic to FDM EE

Migrations• Migration should not be a lift and shift!!!!• CheckPoint experts can plan your migration strategy and execute on this strategy• Don’t take our word for it, we can prove it!

FDMEE Migrations- Tips and Best Practices!

• Was it ever best practices to perform all transformations within FDM Classic!!!

• Migration is not a lift and shift!• Migration will be hybrid and cyclical, use migration utility

to bootstrap FDMEE environment. • Use a combination of migration utility, SQL, and Excel.• Review overall FDM process, and what functionally needs

to be accomplished.• Take advantage of new features in FDMEE.

– Multi-Dimensional Mapping– App to app loading – HFM to HFM

• Utilize the power of ODI!
