New OBIEE / OAC (Oracle Analytics Cloud) reports and Dashboards.

Oracle Corp. has announced that it will no longer support Crystal reports in PeopleSoft applications. Dataterrain’s unique automation engine converts Crystal reports to a Business Intelligence (OBIEE) Publisher format, which helps to reduce the time it takes for organizations to transition from Crystal Reports to Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher. Our tool extracts reporting details from Crystal report .rpt files and converts them into BI Publisher (OBIEE), deployed in the same Peoplesoft application. Oracle OBIEE / Business Intelligence Publisher users can create customer-ready HTML and PDF documents such as financial statements, contracts, invoices, and purchase orders utilizing multiple formatting and design options. It supports the E-Text template, an RTF-based template used to generate text output for Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). It supports a variety of results (HTML/Excel/PDF/CSV/XML/MS Word) to meet various business needs in many languages. DataTerrain works closely with business users to understand reporting requirements and integrates existing PeopleSoft data reporting tools such as PS/Query and output tools such as Microsoft Word and Excel.

Oracle Discoverer, a popular reporting tool for Oracle EBS, is no longer supported by Oracle. As a result, the company will provide no further product enhancements or fixes for any software problems. Oracle recommends that customers migrate to the latest and greatest in business intelligence technology: OBIEE (Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition) and OAC (Oracle Analytics Cloud) to have seamless integration with Oracle EBS data and SSO (single sign-on) capabilities for greater efficiency.

Hyperion Interactive Reporting (IR or BRIO) is a robust business intelligence tool that gives users access to data across business functions. Oracle corp has withdrawn premium support for this product, but it continues to offer a standard level of support for IR. This tool is unlikely to get new enhancements and fixes.

DataTerrain developed a unique automation tool to preserve years of design efforts and make the transition faster. As a first step, the Metadata Transition Tool builds and validates the Oracle Business Intelligence repository (RPD) to establish the analytics layer and workbooks extract, or BRIO reports transition tool creates Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE / OAC) Answers reports. We bring years of OBIEE/OAC development experience and best practices to build new reports or enhance existing reports and dashboards.

DataTerrain has developed a robust automation tool to convert metadata files across multiple BI platforms. Our automation tools support the transition of metadata source files like SAP BusinessObjects Universe file, IBM Cognos Explorer Universal Server and IBM Cognos Express, Oracle BI Enterprise Edition, and Hyperion Essbase Reporting Services. When it receives these files in a suitable format (such as *.biar, *.univ, *.eex, and *.rpd), DataTerrain’s engine converts them to their respective destination formats, preserving the joins and table structures. These converted metadata files are similar in functionality to those created by their source systems. They can also support ad hoc reports.
