pre-packaged analytic applications, the combination redefines business
intelligence and performance management by providing the first integrated ,

financial close, operational analytic applications, BI tools, reporting, and

Hyperion Financial Management utilizes today's most advanced technology, yet is built to be owned and
maintained by the enterprise's finance team. It provides the ability to create
an application with more than four custom dimensions. You can also create
additional custom dimensions for existing HFM applications. The HFM application
server tier is also the data source. Therefore, there is no need to push
consolidated results to another repository to make the results available for
reporting enabling real-time reporting against consolidated results. HFM manages the consolidation entries necessary
for organizations that have direct and indirect interests in multiple
organizations and complex cross-ownership situations through multiple
organization hierarchies and predefined business rules. In addition, the
process of determining effective ownership, ultimate percent control, and
proper consolidation method is done automatically – no manual intervention is
required.
Hyperion Financial Close Suite applications and Business
Intelligence technology, it provides a unified solution that can be very
quickly deployed with out-of-the-box integration as well as packaged dashboards
and analytics.
