Variance Analysis
Hyperion systems are implemented to have Actuals and plan data in most scenarios hence provide capabilities to do variance analysis of Financial statements between estimate vs. actual
Oracle EBS are mostly design to capture transactions which are Actuals by nature. Plan data does not go into GL systems so no variance analysis.
Hyperion products allow better presentation and reporting interfaces with MS Office like Excel, Power point and word doc
GL has limited functionality for interfaces with MS office products for reporting purposes like ADI.
Reporting
Hyperion is a mainly consolidation and reporting tool and has lots of flexibility to report financial statements like by org, by business unit, by region without intervention of IT expert.
Consolidation module in Oracle EBS has limited ability to report at different levels of Organization hierarchy with entities in different currencies

Multiple COA based GL data can be mapped in FDQM/FDM to reporting COA of HFM
Multiple COA based GL data can be mapped in FDQM/FDM or preferably in Oracle staging area to reporting COA of HFM

Variance Analysis
Variance analysis need to be customized in HFM or Users have to do manually in Excel Hyperion products allow better presentation and reporting interfaces with MS Office like Excel, Power point and word doc
Variance analysis can be done by defining formula scenarios in Essbase and no manual calculation in excel. Hyperion products allow better presentation and reporting interfaces with MS Office like Excel, Power point and word doc Essbase supports features of planning processes.

Pros and Cons if KV goes with only HFM Essbase Pros: Pros: HFM or Essbase
1. 2. 3. 4. Intercompany elimination is in-built feature in HFM Currency conversion is in built feature in HFM and easy to go process. Reports in MS office products can be refreshed via HFM at click. In-built SOX compliance process due to workflow. 1. 2. 3. 4.
5.
Planning processes are excellently handled in the Essbase environment. Hyperion Planning cube has in-built Business rules which can be kicked by users from planning web forms to calculate planning variables without waiting for IT support Calculations and aggregations are heart of Essbase engine. Headcount model can be easily implemented along with Work force planning module to implement Compensation and Benefits model. Reports in MS office products can be refreshed via Essbase at click.
Cons:
1. 2. 3. 4. Planning business rules are not supported in the HFM Calculations and aggregation of plan data will be customized in HFM. HFM supports limited planning processes. Cash flow report will be a custom solution in HFM
Cons:
1.
2.
3.
Intercompany elimination is not supported in Essbase Currency conversion is a customized solution Essbase. SOX compliance are handled with shared folders or support centrals which can be accessed by auditors.

BEMO & Harris Bank transmit Lox box receipt file to K&V Oracle EBS System
The file is then interfaced using Oracle AR Auto Lockbox Functionality Receipts are created automatically in the Oracle AR system Lockbox is configured to accept the interface file format from the Bank
The matching rules ensure the automatic application of receipts to open AR Transactions.

Initiator creates an Inter company transaction with one or more recipient lines, enters initiator accounting and submits the batch. Recipient receives the Inbound Transaction, enters recipient accounting and approves transaction. The recipient may approve or reject the transaction either in Oracle Advanced Global Inter company System UI or from the Workflow Notification online or in email format.. The transaction status is updated for the initiator and recipient when the transaction is approved or rejected. When the transaction is approved, Oracle Advanced Global Inter company System determines whether an invoice is required for the transaction or not. If the Legal Rules and Transaction type options determine an invoice is required, Receivables and Payables Invoices are created. If an invoice is not required, the transaction is transferred to General Ledger of the initiator and the recipient.
