About Deploying Business Rules and Business Rulesets

You can deploy business rules to Oracle Hyperion Planning, Oracle General Ledger, and Oracle Essbase. You can deploy business rulesets to Oracle Hyperion Financial Management, Planning, and Oracle General Ledger. You can deploy one or more business rules or business rulesets (known as a partial deployment), or you can deploy all of the business rules and rulesets in an application (known as a full deployment).

Note:

If you have a Planning business rule with a variable that exists at multiple levels (that is, a variable that exists at more than one of these levels: global, application, plan type, or rule), and you delete the variable at the lowest level, you must perform a full redeployment of the Planning application so this deletion is made in any rules that use this variable in Planning. If you perform a partial redeployment only, the deletion of the variable may not be made, and it may still be in use in Planning.

You can deploy only business rulesets to Financial Management. You can deploy one ruleset from each calculation type in the application; you cannot deploy individual rules.

After you deploy business rulesets to Financial Management, you can run calculations or consolidations from within data forms or data grids. After you deploy business rules and business rulesets to Planning, you can launch them from within data forms or independently from the Launch menu. After you deploy business rules and business rulesets to Essbase, you can launch them from Oracle Essbase Administration Services or directly from Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager. After you deploy business rules and business rulesets to Oracle General Ledger, you can launch them from within Oracle General Ledger using the Generate Allocations link.
