The definition of Enterprise Data

Enterprise data is both transactional and analytical data, including application-specific metadata, alternative business perspectives, enterprise dimensions, mappings, reference data, and master data sets. Examples of enterprise data include charts of accounts, organizational or cost center structures, legal entity and ownership hierarchies, market segments, product categories, and more.

Purchases of any kind are referred to as business transactions. By definition, this means that a supplier and a customer come together to meet a need. Most retail transactions are accompanied by a receipt. This receipt contains details of the products or services purchased, the location of the store, you as the buyer, your payment terms, the transaction date, etc. When such point-of-sale transactions are reflected in the general ledger, they are posted to revenue accounts.

Costs associated with creating and fulfilling requirements are recorded in expense reports. Cost centers record the expenses of companies and organizations within the company that supported this transaction. Products and market segments are aggregated based on business taxonomies that make the most sense for you, the business owner, to track and report business performance. All of these data elements that describe and structurally inform the transaction represent enterprise data and can be managed using Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud.

Connect disparate enterprise applications

Easy connection with application adapters
Connect both Oracle and non-Oracle enterprise applications with a dedicated application or universal adapters. Use simple wizards to introduce applications to the

Import dimensions
Import lists or hierarchies from contributing applications. Save time without having to check data as you enter it, even with “dirty” data.

Validate views
Improve data quality within an application or business domain by validating separate perspectives called viewpoints.

Synchronize with the REST APIs
Synchronize enterprise data by integrating with applications via full-featured, standards-based RESTful interfaces.

Manage changes to enterprise master data elements

Optimize requests
Create new or modify existing company data, relationships, and attributes with requirements in an easy-to-understand shopping cart interface.

Validate data immediately
Verify nodes and hierarchies during the request process using configurable system checks and packaged or custom application checks.

Visualize the impact of changes
Oracle Enterprise Data Management (EDMCS) helps you see the impact of changes before you make them – by modeling and visualizing each change request and its associated actions against the target structure(s).

Simplify submissions
Ensure consistent submissions and a determination against target viewpoints with a single request for new item submissions and changes to existing items.

Optimization of differences across business perspectives

Visualize with side-by-side comparisons
Visually compare alternative business perspectives, lists, or hierarchies in a side-by-side layout. Understand issues such as missing nodes and relationships or property differences by comparing alternative hierarchies.

Use drag and drop to make changes
Harmonize alternative hierarchies and optimize differences using drag-and-drop changes to views within and between applications. Create a change request or automatically populate a comparison request based on the comparison results.

Save time with subscriptions
Use subscriptions to automatically copy changes made in a business context to a downstream application. Save time with changes that require no human intervention.

Real-time collaboration and creation

Involve co-authors
Enhance a request by inviting collaborators as needed. Alerts keep everyone informed by notifying co-authors of changes.

Track activity with conversation threads
Collaborate using conversation threads to discuss topics, communicate viewpoints, and provide feedback, either at the item or request level.

Tag participants
Accelerate collaboration and direct an employee’s attention as needed with Oracle Enterprise Data Management (EDMCS) by using @-references to tag participants and issue real-time email notifications.

Grant detailed permissions for data access
Ensure security with granular, permission-based access to applications, dimensions, and associated data objects.

Optimizations with automated workflow
Invite the right stakeholders to participate at the right time using an intelligent engine that combines knowledge of the requirement content, user permissions, authorized approvers, and the requirement phase
