Oracle EPM comes with prebuilt adapter for SAP financials

Oracle's Enterprise Performance Management system, now on general availability at Release 11.1.1.2, comes with a source adapter for SAP financial data.

The database giant says it will reduce the complexity and cost of loading such data into Hyperion business intelligence and the Oracle Essbase system. Release 11.1.1.2 is said to unify performance management and business intelligence – essentially bringing together strategic, financial and operational management, and providing the potential to more easily streamline businesses and enable agility. In addition to new data integration capabilities, Oracle EPM System features expanded localisation features for Asia Pacific, Latin America and European markets.
