Oracle EPM plays a pivotal role in facilitating informed decision-making for modern businesses, especially in terms of annual bookkeeping and financial close. EPM undergoes monthly updates that act as a gateway to the most recent enhancements, features, and optimizations. Keeping up with these updates can be a challenge, so Opkey provides an insightful overview blog as well as a lengthier Advisory Document. This advisory offers a comprehensive resource for businesses seeking to harness the full potential of their performance management strategies.

Let’s go over a few of the highlights.

What’s New in EPM with the February 2024 Release?

Here are quick snippets from Oracle EPM release notes.

  • The Account Reconciliation feature introduces automated reverse adjustments, enhanced export options, including .xlsx format for Microsoft Excel, and streamlined data import capabilities through the REST API for increased efficiency and flexibility.

  • Explore the new 'How Do I...' Help Center tab for answers to common questions in Enterprise Data Management.

  • Find guidance on troubleshooting Enterprise Journal Functional Issues in the Financial Consolidation and Close section of the Oracle EPM Cloud Operations Guide.
