Implementation & Customization processes in BI Applications. BI Applications is built on an integrated IT infrastructure. As such it requires a combination of many skills to implement. Customization requires EBS techno-functional knowledge and skills. This is then incorporated in the ETL. Business acumen can help leverage the technology to the maximum.

1. Oracle BI Applications Implementationand CustomizationforOracle EBS

2. Topics Introduction Installation: Required Software & Integration ETL using DAC DAC Components BI Applications – Customizations Integrating BI Applications with EBS

3. Introduction

4. The Evolving Role of Business Intelligence

6. Oracle Business Intelligence (BI) Applications are complete, prebuilt BI solutions (Dashboards & Reporting) with built-in best practices

7. BI Applications are configurable for a range of data sources with the prebuilt ETL mappings.

8. This provides for rapid deployment and lower TCO.

9. These solutions enable organizations to gain more insight for business optimization

12. BI Applications: Architecture

14. Assess cash-management

15. Monitor operational effectiveness of the payables department to ensure the lowest transaction costs

16. Monitor DSOs and cash cycles to manage working capital

17. Manage financial performance across locations, customers, products, and territories

20. Assess HR performance against recruitment and retention goals

21. Understand drivers of employee turnover

23. Required Software in order of Installation for BI Apps 7.9.6.2 jdk 1.5 and higher Database 10g R2 10.2.0.4 is certified 11g R1 11.1.0.7 11gR2 11.2.0.1 OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1 is the certified version OBIEE 11.1.1.3.0 can be used but not certified BI Applications 7.9.6.2 Informatics 8.6.1 Data Warehouse Administration Console (DAC 10.1.3.4.1)

24. Databases Database for Informatics Domain Configuration (say DC) Database for Informatics Repository (say IF) Database for Data Warehouse Administration Console (say DAC) Data Warehouse (say DW) Special considerations for DW Block size 16K to 32K set NLS_SORT to binary SDU/TDU settings in listener.ora file to increase throughput between oracle BI Server and oracle Set the number of log file groups to 4 Create separate Table spaces for Dimension, Fact, Staging and Aggregate Tables Match Parameter file to template parameter file

26. Some of the important components it installs are:BI Applications repository Oracle BI Analytics Apps.rpd Informatics Repository Oracle_BI_DW_Base Src Files: This contains source files and Parameter files Lkp Files DAC meta data files

29. DAC meta data files:

31. This Completes the 4 tier installation Clients Windows only 2GB Servers: Windows/Linux 8GB DataWarehouse Windows/Linux 8GB

33. OBIEE – Administrator Tool

36. Now you are ready to load OLTP data to your Data Warehouse.Perform an ETL using DAC

37. The Basic ETL Process Informatica Integration Services Target DataWarehouse Source

38. We Perform ETL using DAC

39. DAC Components: Design

40. DAC Components: Setup

41. DAC Components: Execute

42. After the data load in the DW using DACBI Applications is ready to use!

43. BI Applications - Customizations

48. Requirements Gap Analysis Document

49. Summary of Customization Steps: The subject area you are working on. Create a requirements gap analysis document Identify source and target attributes for the custom report in question. If target attribute is not available then it needs o be loaded. Identify the source attribute table, KFF or DFF. Identify the folder for your SDE and SIL Mappings Identify your target table/tables. Identify Mappings related to your table. Get the complete picture of all the source and target tables Identify if the additional column is available in one of the source table or new source tables need to be imported.

70. BI Applications integration withtransactional applications - EBS

71. BI Applications Integration with EBS Single Sign-On (SSO) integration between Oracle E-Business Suite Applications and Oracle Business Intelligence Applications is achieved by means of a shared SSO cookie that is passed from the E-Business Suite Application to Oracle BI EE through the browser.
