Introduction
This guide describes accessibility features for Oracle Hyperion Tax Provision.

Management Accessibility Guide, which needs to be referred to in addition to the Tax
Provision Accessibility guide.
Oracle customers have access to electronic support through My Oracle Support. For

Enabling Accessibility for Tax Provision
Tax Provision accessibility is enabled when you enable the screen reader support for Oracle
Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace preferences and then open an
application.
Note: If the application is already open before enabling the screen reader support for EPM
Workspace, you must close it and open it in a new browser window.
If you are using JAWS Screen Reading Software, Oracle recommends using the Internet
Explorer browser. For the JAWS screen reader to announce links, image shortcut keys, and
headings, Virtual PC Cursor (VPC) mode must be enabled. Enable Virtual PC Cursor (VPC)
and use JAWS keys for navigating and reading contents in a table. In addition, when you access
the right filter panel, you must tab to the first editable field and use the Virtual keys to read the
headings.
To enable accessibility:
1 From Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace, select File, and then
Preferences.
2 Under Accessibility Mode, select Enable Screen Reader Support.
This option enables the screen reader that you have installed to read the information
displayed on the screen.
3 Click OK.

Tax Provision Accessibility Features
Note: Accessibility is supported on Microsoft Internet Explorer only.
Whenever a new Internet Explorer window is opened, you can use browser- specific keys
such as Ctrl + P for printing and Alt+F4 for closing the window.
Abbreviations such as POV for Point of View are used acrossTax Provision screens. Screen
readers read them as POV. To add abbreviation equivalents in the Screen Reader dictionary,
such as replacing POV with Point of View, refer to your screen reader documentation.
Opening Applications
To open a Tax Provision enabled application, select Navigate, then Consolidation, then select the
application. Wait until the screen reader announces Loading Complete to ensure that the
application is opened.
Immediately after you open a Consolidation application, you must click Alt+2 to set the focus
to the content area. After setting the focus, you can access items from the Consolidation menu
using the keyboard in Screen Reader mode.
Using Tabs
After you load any new tab from the Consolidation menu, click Alt+2 so that the system moves
the focus to the opened tab and reads the tab title.
When an asynchronous task such as loading data is launched, the system opens the Running
Tasks window and the Screen Reader announces Loading Complete. After the screen reader
is finished, click the Alt+2 shortcut key to read the tab title and ensure that the focus is at the
top of the Running Tasks tab.
When you close a popup window, the focus does not always return to the initial location. In
addition, sometimes the focus is lost during tabbing, such as selecting a file and tabbing out of
Browse buttons, or tabbing after reaching the end of Load and Extract screens. To navigate to
the top of the left panel, click Alt+1. To navigate to the top of the middle panel, click Alt+2. To
navigate to the top of the right panel, click Alt+3.
Member Selector Keyboard Only Navigation
Normal Mode
After you launch the Member Selector, when you select Tab, the system proceeds through each

tree. Use the Down Arrow key to select a member. To select multiple members, use Shift + Down
Arrow. To expand or collapse a parent member, use the Left or Right Arrow key. After you select

After you launch the Member Selector, when you select Tab, the system proceeds through each
item. When it reaches the Hierarchy member, click the spacebar to select that member.
To move to other members from Hierarchy, click Tab again. The focus moves to the next member
tree. A checkbox is displayed next to each member. To select a member, click the spacebar. To
move to the next member, click Tab. To expand or collapse a parent member, click Enter. After
you select a member, tab until you move to the Add Selection button. Click Enter to move the
selected members to the Selected Members list.
