HFM to HFM

Fully integrated web based data management tool created for Finance & Accounting users

Intuitive, guided workflow Process data from virtually any source Robust mapping/transformation capabilities Powerful data validation & quality checks Target System Integration Enhancements Enterprise wide process monitoring Predelivered reporting Full lights out capability Prebuilt source system integration & Drill Thru

Financial Data Quality Management, Enterprise Edition (FDMEE)

Import: Data is extracted from source, imported into FDMEE database and maps are applied

Validate: Confirms that all data is mapped, for HFM, confirms mapped intersection is valid

Export: Exports data from FDMEE database and loads target application then runs consolidation

Check: Retrieves post calculated/aggregated balances from target system, checks against administrator defined thresholds to determine data quality

Workflow

View Source and Target Data View Mapped, Unmapped & Ignored records Hide/Show Additional columns Sort up to 3 columns concurrently Change column Order

On 1 Screen…

Explicit Wildcards (* or _)

Multi Column Filtering

Selected columns, filtered rows in FDMEE

Excel output

Export to Excel

By Dimension: Account, Entity, ICP, Up to 20 Customs

Multiple Types: ● Explicit: 1 to 1● Between: Continuous range of source values● In: Non continuous range of source values● Like: Wildcarding● Multidim:

Mapping

Additional mapping options Update multiple dimensions from single map Validate option Merge Import option Apply maps to specific data load rules

FDMEE Mapping Enhancements

Determine target based on multiple dimensions● Similar to varValues without needing to script

Supports Wildcarding Supports multiple dimensions Only applies to source values

MultiDimensional Maps

<BLANK>: No more import scripts Segment: <1>,<2>

Format Mask (11.1.2.3.510): Wildcards on steriods● Source: 1200_M100_23045● Format Mask: #Format(“*_Plant#???_*”,”_”)● Target: 1200_Plant100_23045

Wildcard Mapping

Source Value Source Map

Target Map Result

1000_10065 <1> * 1000

Co1000_10065 ??<1> * 1000

1200_M100_23045 <2> * M100

Jython or SQL scripts SQL is better from a performance perspective

Updating Multiple Dimensions at Once

Validate all mapping records, not just newly entered items

Enhancement request filed to give On/Off option to force validate on save

Validate Mapping Outside of Workflow

Merge mode will update maps based on Rule Name (Wildcard) or Source Value (Explicit)

Import Maps from Excel

Allows mapping logic to be specific to a data load rule Not required to be specified Only 1 data load rule can be specified for a mapping

record

Enhancement filed to extend to data load rules of locations assigned a parent map

Data Load Rule Specific Maps

Intersection Validation● Out of the box for HFM● Scripting process possible to extend to Essbase

Check Report

Data Validation & Quality

Key Questions Do HFM adjustments/eliminations get loaded to

Essbase?

Scenario 1: Different Dimensionality

HFM: Entity, Account, ICP, Division Planning: Entity, Account, ICP, Product


Essbase? Does Plan/Fcst need to be loaded to HFM? Are these EPMA enabled apps? Which application is the system of record?

Scenario 2: Same Dimensionality, Different Granularity

HFM & Planning: Entity, Account, ICP, Cost Center, Product Family


Essbase or duplicated/calc’d in Essbase? Does Plan/Fcst need to be loaded to HFM? Are these EPMA enabled apps? Is drill thru needed? Do individual users need to sync data?

Scenario 3: Same Dimensions and Granularity

Is drill thru required? How does the dimensionality align? How does the granularity align? What is the timing required? What is the performance expectation?

(1644737.1) What are the data volumes? Who owns the process?
