Lesson 1: Create Implementation User

Note: For this class, no students have been entered. You will need to create your own implementation
user.
Note: The first user you need to create before you can create an Implementation Project is an Implementation
User, such as an Application Implementation Consultant. You cannot create actual users yet because a Legal
Entity and Business Unit context is required and data roles need to be generated and all of these havent been
defined yet.
1. Log in to your Fusion environment using fin_impl/password given in class.
2. Select Navigator> Setup and Maintenance
3. In the Search field, enter Create Implementation Users and click Search.
Note: You are searching for this task name directly.
4. Click the link for the Create Implementation Users task. This opens Identity Manager.
5. Click on the Administration link on the top right hand corner of the main page.
6. Click Create User and enter the following:

First Name
Last Name
Email
Organization- Xellerate Users.
User Type: Choose Anything
User Login (such as FASXX.Student, where XX is the # assigned to you.)
2 Copyright 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Password
Confirm Password
Click the Save button.
7. Click the Roles tab.
8. In the Roles tab, the ALL USERS role will already be assigned by default.
9. Click Assign icon to assign additional roles to the user.
10. In the Display Name field, search on Application Implementation Consultant. Select it and choose the
Add button on the bottom right. Click Assign to bring up the window to search for additional roles to add to
the user.
11. You should add the following roles:
Application Implementation Consultant
IT Security Manager
OIMAdministrators
Human Capital Management Application Administrator
Human Resource Manager
Employee (This is needed for Scheduled Processes to show up on the Navigator.)
Accounts Payable Manager US1 Business Unit
Accounts Payable Specialist US1 Business Unit
Accounts Receivable Manager US1 Business Unit
Asset Accountant US Corporate Book
Asset Accounting Manager US Corporate Book
Copyright 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. 3

Buyer
Cash Manager
Collections Manager US1 Business Unit
General Accounting Manager US Primary Ledger
Intercompany Accountant France I/C Org
Intercompany Accountant UK I/C Org
Intercompany Accountant US1 I/C Org
Intercompany Accountant US2 I/C Org
Supplier Administrator (This is the seeded role that can create suppliers. Also, the worker
associated with your login must be defined as a Procurement Agent in the Business Unit where you
are trying to add the site and site assignment. Also the agent needs to have the Manage Supplier
Task Access granted.)
Tax Manager US1 Business Unit
Helpful Tip: The Monitors job role allows you to monitor scheduled processes executed by ANY user. This
is useful for system administrators.
You will not be able to view the output of BIP reports, such as the AP Aging or GL Trial Balance, but you will
be able to see the process status and the log file submitted by all users.
Note: Do not be lazy and assign all roles under the sun to your Implementation user. It makes it very difficult
to trouble shoot access issues later on when your users are undergoing User Acceptance Testing (UAT).
Take the time to assign roles one by one.
12. Close the Identity Manager window. You will need to log in with your new userid and password. You will be
prompted to change your password, but it can be the same.
Note: If you subsequently add roles to your user, then you must run the process called Run User and
Roles Synchronization Process. This is a task in Functional Setup Manager (FSM). Then you must
completely log out and log back in to see the new roles you can access. You could also run the following
process from ESS: Retrieve Latest LDAP Changes. This process is whats run behind the scenes when
you submit the task in FSM. Many companies will have that process scheduled to run at certain intervals,
such as every 10 minutes.

Lesson 3: SmartView
Lesson 3: SmartView
This introductory flow shows you how straightforward it is to inquire upon and
manipulate account balances using familiar desktop tools, in order to get to the
information you want in an efficient, user-friendly way.
1. Download the R11-SmartView.xls file from here. Launch Microsoft Excel and
open the R11_SmartView.xls file. Note that your Smart View queries can be
saved and reused, saving time if you are regularly investigating similar account
balance information.
2. Click on the Refresh button in the Point of View window or in the Essbase
toolbar. This will prompt you to log in. Use your Fusion Applications username
and password.
3. After entering your username and password, click on the Sign In button with
your mouse. Do not just hit the Enter key on your keyboard.
Smart View is connected to your Fusion training environment. You can see this
configuration by navigating in Excel to Smart View > Options > Advanced >
Shared Connections URL and reviewing the url: https://XXX-fapXXXX-
bi.oracledemos.com/workspace/SmartViewProviders.
4. Using the Point of View (POV) window
This Point of View window allows you to select values for your data dimensions 1,
so you can pinpoint the information you want in your Excel analysis. This window
can be floating or docked at the top / side of the screen to suit you. Try it by
grabbing the title bar and dragging to move or dock the window.
1In Smart View terminology, dimensions are each of the segments of your chart accounts plus other
accounting elements such as ledger, currency, accounting period, balance type. The values for each
dimension are known as members.

Lesson 3: SmartView
The Smart View Shared Connections window may also appear, but as your
database connection is already setup for this exercise, you can close this
window.
a. Find the Cost Center dimension in the Point of View (POV) window (hint: All
Corporate Cost Centers-V5), and click the list of values arrow to select a
new value.
Note: If you hover over the pull-down arrows beside each dimension, you will
see the dimension names.
From the list, click [] to open the Member Selection window. The
Members region shows all hierarchies (trees) and tree versions that have
been created for this dimension.
b. Click [+] to expand the parent value All Cost Center Values. This displays a
list of all cost center values in your chart of accounts.
c. Next, click [+] to expand the hierarchy All Corporate Cost Centers-V5. This
displays the hierarchy with the parent values and the child values that roll up
to them.
Note: When a value appears in more than one tree version of the same
dimension, Smart View always uses the unique member path to identify each
value. For example, if parent cost center value 100 appears in more than one
hierarchy, the name of the hierarchy precedes value 100 to identify which
hierarchy it came from. This is important because parent cost center value
100 may have different child cost center values rolling up to it in different
hierarchies. The value prefixed by the hierarchy name is referred to as the
fully qualified member name. The fully qualified member name is also used
when the same value is used in more than one dimension, for example if
99000 is a valid value for both company and account, it will be shown as fully-
qualified member name [Company]@[99000] and [Account]@[99000] to
distinguish the two.

Lesson 3: SmartView
d. Select cost center 400 by checking the box next to the cost center value and
click the icon to move it across to the Selection region, and also click the
icon to take the existing value out of the Selection region, and then click
OK to close the window.
e. Click the Refresh button. The Smart View query will refresh the account
balances for the cost center that you selected. If you selected a parent value,
the amounts retrieved are the sum of accounts balances for its children.
f. Investigate some of the other dimensions available in the POV window.

Remember to click Refresh after changing any member values in order for
the changes to be reflected in the balances.
Balance Amount
The Balance Amount lets you select whether you want to see the
Beginning Balance, Period Activity, or Ending Balance for account
balances. Selecting Period Activity displays the account balance
activity that occurred during the month. Selecting Ending Balance
displays the year-to-date balance for Revenue and Expense accounts,
or inception-to-date balance for Asset, Liability, and Equity accounts.
Other Chart of Account Dimensions: Company, Line of Business,

Product
Scenario
The scenario is currently set to Actuals. Selecting Budget for the

scenario would return budget data.

Lesson 3: SmartView
Amount Type
The Amount Type is set to Base. Other options are Period-to-Date,

Quarter-to-Date, Year-to-Date. Base is like the universal amount type
and enables you to view any amount type/balance amount
combination. If you select Period-to-Date, Quarter-to-Date, or Year-
to-Date, you would need to select the appropriate Balance Amount to
go with it before you can view the data.
Currency
The currency is currently set to USD. You can select other currencies
in your query, such as CNY (Chinese Yuan), but you will also need to
change the Currency Type to Entered in order to view data.
Currency Type
The currency is currently set to Total. The Vision US PL ledger

accounts for all transactions in USD accounting currency. The ledger
has some foreign currency transactions denominated in CNY, so
selecting CNY currency and currency type Entered will display some
account balances in CNY. Also, selecting the currency type
Converted from [] will display that foreign currency amount
converted to USD.
Guidelines:
If Currency Type = Total, then pick the ledger currency in the Currency
dimension
If Currency Type = Entered, then pick an entered currency (or foreign
currency) in the Currency dimension
If Currency Type = Converted from [], then pick the ledger currency
In order to see total balances (both foreign amounts converted to USD,

and those originally entered in USD), use the Currency Type Total and
Currency of USD.
Note: Some of the dimensions do not have a specific member value specified by
default. In those cases, they will take the value of the top of the hierarchy as the
default. For instance, the default for product will be All Product Values which is
the top of the hierarchy, and the default for Amount Type is Base, which is the
first value.
As demonstrated here, the Point of View window acts like a set of parameters to
refine the data in your spreadsheet. When you change values in the point of

Lesson 3: SmartView
view, they can be refreshed instantly against the latest General Ledger data; you
do not need to run any batch process to load in new data.
5. Working within the spreadsheet
The POV is a convenient way of changing your view of the data, but you can also
place multiple dimensions within your Excel sheet in order to see multiple
member values at once in a report-style layout. Dimensions can be dragged-and-
dropped from the POV window onto the spreadsheet, and you can have multiple
dimensions in the rows or the columns.
The example spreadsheet shows the Account dimension in the rows, and the
Accounting Period dimension in the columns.
a. Revert the changes you made in the previous step, or simply close the
spreadsheet without saving it, and then re-open it and log in again.
b. Drag the cost center dimension from the POV window over to the left-hand
side of your spreadsheet (over the top of one of the Account cells in Column
A). When you drop it into place, it will become a new row dimension.
Note: If your dimension lands in the wrong place, right-click-and-drag to move

it back to where you started and try again it becomes easier with practice.
You also have an Undo button in the Smart View menu (when working in
Smart View, use this instead of the standard Undo function in Excel).
c. Parent values can be expanded within the spreadsheet to drill down and view
the account balances of the child values, or parent values can be collapsed.
Either use Zoom-In from the Essbase menu or double-click on the Qtr1-12
value to expand the quarter into months. Click on 01-12 and select Zoom

Lesson 3: SmartView
Out from the Essbase menu toolbar. See how it collapsed the months 01-12,
02-12, and 03-12 into Qtr1-12.
d. Next, click on one of the accounts in column B (i.e. 95011 Revenues) and
double-click on it or select Zoom In. This expands the parent value to its
child accounts. If some of the descendent values of 95011 were also parent
values, you could expand them to see their children. Each child level in the
hierarchy is indented from its parent.
e. Select any of the child values and select Zoom Out to see the child values
collapse back into the parent value.
Note: Child values are expanded above their parent rather than below.
f. From the Smart View toolbar, click Options and select the Member Options
tab. Under the Zoom In grouping, you can specify how members of a
hierarchy are displayed; for example, you can control whether you zoom in by
one level at a time, expand all child levels, or zoom straight to the lowest level
of the hierarchy.
g. Under the Data Options tab, you can control the suppression of data under
the Suppress Rows grouping. Check the box to suppress the No Data /
Missing, click OK to close the Options window, and refresh your spreadsheet.
The accounts with no balances (corresponding cells have #Missing) will be
removed from your analysis. (If this box was already checked, see what
happens when you uncheck it).
h. Try using the Essbase toolbar to keep only data for the first two quarters and
remove the rest of the quarters from the spreadsheet. Use CTRL + Click to
select the cells containing the labels Qtr1-12 and Qtr2-12. Click in
the Essbase toolbar and this will be the only accounting periods retained in
the spreadsheet. The function works in a similar way.
i. If you know the unique member name of a dimension member, you can type it
into the desired position, and Smart View will look up the data. Type Qtr3-12
into the cell to the right of Qtr2-12. Hit the Enter key on your keyboard.
Click Refresh. The Qtr3-12 column should populate with data.
j. You can also pivot the data in the spreadsheet if you want to change the
orientation of your view. In the POV, go to the Balance Amount dimension (it
might currently be displaying Period Activity and select the parent value
Balance Amounts and remove Period Activity . Click Refresh.
k. Next, drag the Balance Amount dimension from the POV and drop it over
Qtr1-12 to place this dimension in the column.
l. Double-click on the Balance Amount value to expand to its children

Beginning Balance, Period Activity, and Ending Balance.

Lesson 3: SmartView
m. To pivot the data in the spreadsheet, click to select the cell that reads
Balance Amount, and use the Essbase toolbar to pivot the Balance Amount
dimension from the columns to the rows using the button. The
spreadsheet is now laid out with 3 dimensions Balance Amount, Cost
Center, and Account in the rows of the report.
The selected dimension to be pivoted is always moved to the outermost

row/column of the opposite axis. This might not always be the most helpful
place for your analysis, so the dimensions can also be rearranged in the
spreadsheet by dragging and dropping.
To analyze the data by cost center first then balance amounts within each
account, right-click and drag the cell for Balance Amount from the left of the
spreadsheet and position it over column C where the account values begin
and the spreadsheets layout will change accordingly.
n. Dimensions can also be dragged back to the POV window if you would like to
remove them from the spreadsheet. Right-click and drag the cell with the first
cost center listed and drop it back to the POV window. The cost center
dimension is removed from the spreadsheet.
o. You can use Excels capabilities for calculations on the data in your
spreadsheet to calculate totals, averages, variances, etc. The recommended
practice is to add calculations after you have finalized your report layout,

Lesson 3: SmartView
since adding a new dimension to your Smart View report might mess up your
calculations or cause data in them to be lost. You can also use Excel
formatting and conditional formatting to change fonts, or the way cells display
currencies, percentages, etc.
6. Refreshing the query to see real-time balance information
Smart View has a Refresh button on the POV window and on the Essbase
toolbar which will instantly update your data with the most current balances
posted in General Ledger, so you can reuse your query time and again, knowing
that it is always based on accurate account balances.
7. Drilldown to GL journals
You can drill down on an account balance in Smart View directly into Fusion
General Ledger to view the journal lines that make up the account balance. Be
sure you are logged into the Fusion environment in your default browser. Select
the Drill Through icon on the Essbase toolbar and select Drill to Detail Balances
to drill into the GL Inquiry page. (If drilldown does not work, go to Essbase
menu in the spreadsheet, select Change Alias, and make sure it is set to NONE.)
There is a known issue with Drilling to Account Inspector in the training
environment which gives you an error.
8. Creating new Smart View query
a. To create a new query, open a blank spreadsheet, and click on the Panel
icon in the Smart View menu.
b. Select Shared Connections to open the Shared Connections window.
c. In the dropdown list, select Oracle Essbase. Expand on
Essbase_FA_Cluster, USChartofAccounts, and db.
d. Double click on db and more options appear at the bottom of the window.
e. Select Ad Hoc Analysis.
f. Dimensions appear on the spreadsheet, and click on POV to get the POV
window. You can begin selecting the values for your query.

many of these as you wish.
5. Click on Import Suppliers

6. Click on XLSM Template SupplierImportTemplate.xlsm and click OK.

data into the interface tables and run import processes to load the data to Fusion
Procurement. There are instructions on each in the instructions tab of each
spreadsheet.
8. Then to view the imported suppliers, use the Manage Suppliers Task to query
and view them.

Lesson 6: Entering Customers
Background
The following show the different ways to enter customers manually via the UI and via
spreadsheets.
NOTE: When entering customers using our UIs, there are two. If you just want to enter
the simple required customer information, you can use the Create Customer page. After
that, if you want to enter other information such as contacts, tax, profile, etc., you need
to use the Manage Customer page.
To Quickly Enter Customers Manually (Quick Method):
1. Select Navigator >Receivables > Billing
2. Click the Create Customer link. This will open the Create Organization Customer
page.
3. Enter all the required fields, such as Organization Name.
To Enter Customers Manually (Long Method):
1. Select Navigator >Receivables > Billing
2. Click the Manage Customers link. This will open the Manage Customers page.
3. Click the Create icon.
4. Enter all the required fields.
NOTE: If you create a Customer Profile, then most of the attributes can be defaulted
by assigning the profile to the customer. This is a bit quicker if you have lots of
customers to enter. In the Manage Customer page, there is a field for profile class, if
you select one there, it helps to default in some attributes.
To Enter Customers via a Spreadsheet Using FBDI:

Note: The following instructions are for Cloud customers to import customers.
1. Access this link: https://fusionappsoer.oracle.com/oer/
2. Select the Login as Guest button.

3. Query based on FBDI and Scheduled Processes.
4. Find the file called Import Trading Community Data in Bulk. Note: Use your
right mouse button to download the spreadsheet from OER.
5. Follow the instructions on the Instructions tab. You will need to use a FTP loader
tool to populate interface tables and then run import programs to import them into
Fusion.
