BENEFITS

A Powerful Foundation for World-Class Finance

The Financials Warehouse offers six seamlessly integrated but stand-alone data marts that deliver the maps, measures, and models required for analysis in a defined financial management subject area. Deployed together, the marts provide a single source of financial results for complete reporting and analysis. Deployed independently, the marts provide best practice analysis in a single discipline without requiring a complete warehouse implementation.

Each of the data marts has been rationalized to accept and store content from PeopleSoft Enterprise, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, and JD Edwards World product families, allowing you to bring data together from these source systems into one place for reporting and analysis.

Enterprise Service Automation (ESA) Mart: ESA Mart calculates standard metrics that service organizations need to maintain tight control over services costs.

General Ledger and Profitability Mart: General Ledger and Profitability Mart helps finance organizations analyze their organization's assets, liabilities, equity, and profit and loss position to better understand the factors that influence profitability.

Receivables Mart: Receivables Mart allows you to view customer payments, balances, and write-offs, and perform multidimensional analysis against your receivables activities and information.

Advanced Cost Accounting Mart: Advanced Cost Accounting Mart provides access to cost drivers by customer, product, or geographic region. Use Advanced Cost Accounting Mart with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne transaction systems.
