Description

Oracle Hyperion Interactive Reporting is one of many products in the Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition Plus software suite, an industry-leading business intelligence platform. The primary focus of the Interactive Reporting product is to provide strong relational querying and data analysis capabilities, where the software provides significant flexibility for creating custom dashboards, interfaces, and data analysis routines through the use of JavaScript programming and built-in software functionality. While Interactive Reporting is extremely flexible, performing advanced operations in the software is complicated and requires basic programming knowledge and an advanced understanding of the software. This book continues from where The Business Analyst’s Guide to Oracle Hyperion Interactive Reporting 11 completed and provides the reader with the information to successfully execute the advanced features of the product along with examples and specific techniques applicable to everyday use. The Oracle Hyperion Interactive Reporting 11 Expert Guide provides software users and developers with many examples of the techniques used by software experts. The book begins with an introduction to leveraging advanced features of the project and an introduction to JavaScript. Dashboards are a major focus of the book with four chapters focused on building a simple to complex dashboard including functions, global objects, and syncing selections across dashboards. The book places an emphasis on learning methods for data analysis by using advanced programming and built-in functions, and a unique approach to using code to generate batch reports and exports is provided. The Dashboard Studio Optimize Utility and the Dashboard Studio Merge utility are explained in detail, and the approach to building and using a central code repository for use in dashboards and computations across multiple documents in an enterprise is demonstrated. This book will help the reader become an expert user of the software, providing the skills necessary to understand, communicate, and perform advanced level tasks. The authors’ experience in developing and supporting Interactive Reporting users is very apparent throughout each chapter of the book. While the book displays content and examples from version 11 of the software, the book is also applicable to previous versions of the software dating back to version 8, so readers not currently using Interactive Reporting 11 will find the book applicable to daily use with the product.

Who is this book for?

If you are an Oracle Hyperion Interactive reporting user or developer looking to become an expert in the product, then this book is for you. You will require a basic knowledge of Interactive Reporting, as this book starts with a brief overview and then dives into advanced techniques, functions, and best practices.

I am not sure where to start given the advanced nature of this book. It is a great follow on to the previous book.If you are looking to really use Interactive Reporting in a more advanced manner, I recommend taking a look at this book. Admittedly, some of the concepts are a little over my head since I dont use the tool in such an advanced manner, but it is nice to know what options exist. I found the dashboard section to be particularly interesting. I am trying hard not to quote the book directly about the power of dashboards. I will just simply say that being able to learn more about what is involved in creating a dashboard and the flexibility and power that a dashboard can bring to an interactive report, it was very enlightening.I think if anyone has mastered being able to create basic interactive reports and if they are looking to really add some value to the type of reports that are being provided to their respective clients, I recommend taking a look at this book and giving it a read. I work more on the Financial Reporting side of the house but as with all things regarding the Hyperion suite, it never hurts to learn what the other side of the house is doing. Some of the concepts regarding dashboards etc might even be applicable to HFR, which again isn't a bad thing.If you dont have an advanced knowledge of Interactive Reporting, I strongly recommend looking at this book first: http://www.amazon.com/Business-Analysts-Hyperion-Interactive-Reporting/dp/1849680361/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_bThe above referenced book is a great primer before diving straight into this one if you need a refresher on Interactive Reporting.

This is well written, and has a lot of useful information. only thing I didn't like, is that it doesn't say much about how to trouble-shoot some of issues that arise.
