, tagged Architecture, BI, Engagement Cloud, Financials, General, GRC, HCM, Other, PPM, Procurement, SCM, Service, Talent Title:OTBI Reporting: How to Leverage OBI EE Action Framework as an alternative to cross subject area queriesAbstract:This document describes how to leverage action framework as an alternative approach to cross subject area queries
Announcement:Action Framework is one of the features provided by Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE). Using this feature, BI developers can create actions that provide functionality to navigate to related content and/or invoke operations, functions, or processes in external systems. Actions can be included in analyses, dashboard pages, and can be executed by end users who click action links that are embedded within Analyses on column headings, column values, and in certain views, such as graphs, and on totals and grand totals within tables
Cross subject queries become complicated in some situations where report needs information from multiple subject areas that provide different levels (grain) of information such as balances and transactions. Action framework can be leveraged in conjunction with cross subject area queries to address these types of requirements. Actions empower users with actionable insights and data interactivity.
Download the attached document for a detailed use case, solution, and implementation steps.

Oracle's E-mail Announcements Are Getting a Facelift!
Announcement:Based on your feedback, Oracle's cloud event notifications are getting a facelift! With the new look and feel, we will improve both the standardization and modernization of the e-mails.
For example, we want you to be able to quickly determine if an e-mail is asking you to take action or if it is just delivering information. Also, we are standardizing the layout of the cloud service notifications (new purchase, upgrade, outage, etc.) to give you a better user experience.
These 'new' notifications will start to roll out in the next weeks.
Feel free to reply to this post with your comments and feedback as you start to receive the newly formatted notifications.
