Financial Performance Reporting
Product Roadmap
Copyright © 2014, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. |
Financial Reporting: The Opportunity
• Management & Statutory reporting remains manual and ad-hoc at most
organizations
– Monthly, quarterly fire-drill to get Board Books and report packages done and
delivered
– Lacks process rigor and collaboration
– Manual effort  Time consuming, Expensive
• The opportunity
– Deliver a common solution framework to address the needs of internal
(management) and external (statutory) reporting needs
Copyright © 2014, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. |
Today’s Financial Reporting Tools Fall Short
• Error-prone in combining Data (what) with Narrative (who, when, why)
– Re-keying of data into report
– Unable to analyze data to validate narrative
• Challenging to bring Subject Matter Experts into the process
– Weak security to support “Need to Know” access to content
– Insufficient collaboration features for centralized commenting on content
– Hard to track progress and who is currently responsible for individual areas of content
• Lacks versioning and auditing functionality
– Time wasted tracking versions
– Contributors unable to see history of individual areas of content
Copyright © 2014, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. |
Introducing: Financial Performance Reporting Cloud Service
• Addresses the needs of external (statutory)
and internal (management) reporting needs
• Combines narrative-based management and
statutory reporting needs in one service
• Comprehensively address authoring,
collaboration, commentary and delivery needs
via a Report Package
• Deliver secure, auditable, and role-based
access to users, on desktop and mobile devices
• Built on a modern, cloud-native technology
architecture
– Mobility, Consumerization, Self Service
– Rapid time-to-value and lower cost of ownership
