Core functionality

The EPM Maestro Suite comprises two distinct products - EPM Maestro and Web Symphony.

Their combined core functionality is set out below:

Administrator productivity

Easy, quick and intuitive task flow construction. Shifts administrator activity and attention towards content / quality and exceptions instead of processing.

Administrator tasks performed in a consistent and reliable manner.

Dynamic task flows. Using variables, task flows can be dynamically updated for each business cycle.

Efficient process management

User-friendly and powerful process management. Automatically rejects parents. Handles multiple hierarchies.

Enhanced process management reporting to identify problem areas and submission tracking. Gives greater insight into the processing of data activity such as promotions and rejections.

Improved user communication

Newsboard on logon page provides announcements to users. Easy, direct communication with users eliminates the need for large distribution lists or sending emails.

Message Banner provides near real-time communication of urgent information such as maintenance or downtime, through the Oracle Hyperion Financial Management web interface.

Metadata and security reviews

Ability to compare two metadata sets, for example pre and post update.
