Execute Reports

The Oracle Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management, Enterprise Edition reporting framework represents a unified solution that incorporates source and target data, templates, and user-defined SQL queries. Templates, created in Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher, consume data in XML format and generate reports dynamically. You can add SQL queries to extract data from tables, or couple them with the report parameters to extend the definition of a standard report. FDMEE reports can be generated as PDF, Excel, Word, or HTML output.
