Just starting to dip our big toe into EPBCS
Being used by our Corporate FP&A department for Strategic Modeling and Budgeting.
- It mimics HSF, but doesn't require the infrastructure or upgrades that HSF does.
- Currently there is a big functionality gap, in that iterations of models cannot be saved off unless scripts are written to do this. Oracle has promised Direct Migration functionality will be available in their May release.

Planning and budgeting at your fingertips!
Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud is used by our finance department. It is their only tool to plan financial budgets and build their forecast. The financial reports generated out of the module are used extensively for comparing the plan vs actuals. The data from our core fusion ERP system is loaded daily into EPBCS that keep the module as current as possible to compare the performance against the budgets.
- Smartview capability provides a flexible user interaction for those finance users familiar with Excel.
- The built-in finance adapter makes the data extract from Fusion ERP a seamless experience and proceeds with data integration as an easy chore.
- Webstudio or financial reporting enables actuals vs plan comparisons a cleaner validation.
- The limitation of constrained out of the box dimensions that requires ripping the initial implementation to add the new dimensions is a major drawback.
- Smartview interface is cumbersome for many.
- The only financial adapter is available for integration for other modules we have to go with file-based uploads which is cumbersome and not real-time.
- It is very costly in terms of licensing unlike other Oracle products.

- Planning and budgeting have become a quick win with this tool.
- Excel Smartview has good user experience.
- Plan vs. actual comparison can be done in near real-time with the ease of financial adapter configuration.
Oracle Enterprise Planning Cloud has a well-defined objective for financial users with their budgeting and forecasting. We don't have another tool to do this with our core ERP cloud. Excel Smartview capability provides users with an easy user interface for doing their day to day operations in a relatively convenient manner. Forecasting is possible at the same time on the same tool with actual and plans data readily available.

EPBCS users are high level executives. They are the finance users and users from accounting that mostly use the tool. However the reports and data generate from that tool are used extensively by our top management for SEC reporting and for their trend analysis. We do have some more users from Operations who serve as the end users of this tool as well.

People supporting this tool are primarily IT and software engineers. This tool is not a maintenance overhead and beyond that it is on Cloud. The tool does require advanced skillset to troubleshoot while interacting with Oracle Support for complicated load issues and to use EPMAutomate. We are currently implementing single sign on for this environment, so we need someone with a good knowlege of security as well.
- Accurate revenue numbers
- trend analysis
- token authentication failure issue when the source connection password expired and wasn't updated
- Datawarehouse type of reporting needs like trend analysis etc that couldn't be accomplished with ERP Cloud
- We are planning to expand the current finance only offering to Capital, Projects and Workforce
- Leverage its data into FCCS and ARC

Our single most important factor was to realize the business need with minimum customization. This tool was initially visualized only for business users so that expectation was pretty much the only expectation by far. Next the search for a good vendor reputation. We are glad that we went with Keste, cuz the tool is pretty much functional as it is even with changing business needs
We are happy with the tool as it is. But if I had to change, I would except the tool to offer out of the box adapters to integrate Capital, Projects and Workforce modules seamlessly into EPBCS. This functionality is not available and it is still via Excel uploads. This is cumbersome.
No
I don't think that should be an option at all. In order to gain good customer reputation, businesses should offer proactive customer support for the genuine issue needs of their customers. If there's an option for premium support then it should be fairly reasonable from the lifetime ofer perspective rather than just expediting the issue resolution process
No
Oracle customer support for EPBCS is excellent. They understand the issues pretty well and often come back with prompt resolution. Once I had an issue with SSO configuration in our pod. The actual issue was that a wrong ERP instance was already configured into our pod which removed the option to configure a new identity provider for our pod. This issue was addressed promptly by engaging the right action group.

Oracle Cloud EPM in the media industry
Oracle Account Reconciliation Cloud is used by finance. It is used to reconcile accounts during period-end activities.
- Automate the reconciliation process
- Contributes to reducing the time it takes to close the books
- Automate the reconciliation process
- It would be great to embed AI (Artificial Intelligence) into ARC so that it learns the reconciliation error patterns
- RPA (Robotic Process Automation) could be a good addition to ARC to automate the full process of reconciliation and correction

Change management was a major issue with the implementation
We need to take more time with the business stakeholders explaining to them what the product could do for them and how they could benefit from it.
- EPM is not always a plug and play product
- It requires a different technical skill set (ESBASE)
- no training
The interface is easy to learn but we faced a challenge with the technical knowledge which requires a different skillset (ESBASE)
The core financial structure needs to be streamlined before you should consider implementing EPM
