Oracle Financial Analytics for SAP Overview


Finance Organizations Struggle to Use Data and Intelligence to Increase Performance

Lack of Visibility into Financial Performance data

Time Wasted Gathering Data to Report and Manage

Poor management of cash inflow and outflow

Ø No single integrated view of multiple charts of accounts Ø Poor or inconsistent financial metric definitions Ø  Inability to integrate dozens of financial source systems

Ø Continued reliance on management-by-spreadsheet Ø Disparate financial reporting and poor internal distribution Ø Relevant data in multiple systems – CRM, ERP, etc. Ø No single source of the truth

Ø Lack of insight into payments to suppliers and expenses Ø Unable to obtain timely financial data across the enterprise Ø Limited information to identify overdue balances and other receivables

bottlenecks

Ø Unable to comply with financial and accounting disclosure legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and IAS/IFRS

Ø  Inability to associate aggregated financial results to the line item details in the transactional data sources

EXAMPLES KEY CHALLENGES

Unable to support financial accountability and best practices


Oracle Financial Analytics Comprehensive View of Financial Performance

General Ledger & Profitability Analytics •  Incorporates detail-level general ledger transactions and cash flow analysis across

locations, customers, products, sales territories, distribution channels, and business units •  Identifies the customers and transactions that are providing maximum profits by product,

location, department, and geographic detail. When combined with Marketing Analytics, it enables analysis of Campaign ROI and assists in customer segmentation

Payables Analytics •  Provides visibility into payments due to suppliers and expense line detail so managers can

manage cash outflows and control expenses. When combined with Procurement & Spend Analytics, it allows full procurement analysis from Requisition to Check

Receivables Analytics •  Monitors collections processes to show what customers buy and how they pay, enabling

managers to identify overdue balances and other receivables bottlenecks. When combined with Sales Analytics and Supply Chain & Order Management Analytics, it enables more efficient management of the entire Lead to Cash process.


Role-Based Best Practices Provide Relevant and Actionable Insight for Everyone

Financial Analytics - Key Objectives and Questions by Role Optimizing Management of Financial Performance

•  How can I reduce the time it takes to generate periodic financial statements and reports?

•  How can I get early notification of material events?

•  How effectively are we managing our payables to our key suppliers?

•  How is DSO being impacted by certain customers and by each receivables aging bucket?

Actionable Insight for Improving Shareholder Value •  Which business units and product lines are

enhancing company profitability and which are detracting from it?

•  Are our profitability and balance sheet ratios improving relative to historical trends?

•  How can I get early warnings about revenue misses so I can manage costs and still make earnings?

•  How well are we meeting our financial goals and increasing shareholder value?

Complete Insight into Departmental Revenue and Cost Drivers

•  Which customer segments are most profitable and why?

•  What operating expenses are over budget?

•  How do my division’s results compare to the previous quarter?

•  How are my headcount/product costs tracking?
