Receivables

Ability

to review and sweep accounting transactions.  The new Sweep Invalid Distributions report shows the details of the accounting exceptions that are holding the period close for review and action. If the amount involved is not material from the reporting perspective and resolving the accounting exceptions is likely to delay the period close then the transactions with invalid accounting can be swept to the next open period.Slide9

to automate the Auto Lockbox processing. Prior to 12.2.2, the lockbox programs had to be launched manually from the forms. Receivables now allows these programs to be submitted as standard concurrent requests.  This allows you to schedule the submission of the program to coincide with the receipt of the file from the bank. 

Ability

to programmatically assign a customer to an unidentified receipt via an API.Slide10

One of the pre-built OBIEE reporting and analytics dashboards supported in EA&R covers the quantitative responses to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP

)

The

Carbon Disclosure Project report has been enhanced to support additional questions under the 2011 guidelines

.

The

dashboard can now display: emissions in metric tons, emission factors applied for GHG calculations and their origin; breakdown of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by activity; amount of fuel, electricity, heat, steam, and cooling in MWh consumed by an organization during the reporting year; breakdown of fuel usage by fuel type; year by year comparison of combined Scope 1 and Scope 2

emissions

year by year comparison of Scope 3 emissions by source; and gross combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions for the reporting year in metric tons CO2e per full time equivalent (FTE) employee.Slide12

Enhanced Performance Dashboards:

Pre-built Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) dashboards enable the dynamic generation of reports providing insight into an organization’s emissions and other environmental

impacts

The

dashboards provide information on energy usage, emissions, key performance indicators (KPIs), activities and transactions. Users can view graphical representations of the

dataSlide13

Enhanced Key Performance Indicators:

Oracle Environmental Accounting and Reporting enables organizations to create and modify standard and custom industry-specific key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure performance and monitor key environmental metrics such as energy, waste, and

water

Normalize

data to operational metrics and use a drag-and-drop environment in OBIEE to create custom reports

.

In

the 12.2 release it is now possible to set a threshold in the KPI Metrics history page highlighting to users whether the organization is performing above, below or in-line with the targets so that corrective actions can be taken as needed to successfully execute on the organization’s sustainability initiatives.
