QUESTION 4
Where would you navigate in Data Management to map source data to target scenarios?

A. Category Mapping
B. Target Application
C. Import Format
D. Data Flow Mapping

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Before you begin using FDMEE (Financial Data Quality Management Enterprise Edition), you must register the source system from which you want to import
data. For Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud, it is a file-based source system. FDMEE creates a file-based source system automatically when you install and
configure the product. You must also register the target application (for example, Planning) to which you want to load the data from one or more source systems.

Steps to take source data from a data file that we downloaded from an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) source ledger and load the data to a Oracle
Planning and Budgeting Cloud application.

1. In Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud Service Workspace, select Navigate > Administer > Data Management to launch FDMEE.
2. In the Setup tab, under Register, select Source System.
3. Under Register, select Target Application. Confirm that the Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud application that you want to load data to is included as a
valid target application.

Etc.

QUESTION 6
If a user needs to be able to perform application administration, as well as assign user security in Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud (EPBCS), which two
global roles would need to be assigned to them? (Choose two.)

A. Service Administrator
B. Identity Domain Administrator
C. Approvals Administrator
D. System Administrator

Correct Answer: AB
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
A: All Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud services other than Oracle Enterprise Performance Reporting Cloud use a common set of four
predefined functional roles to control access to service environments: Service Administrator, Power User, User, and Viewer.

B: Identity Domain Administrator Role


As an identity domain administrator, you use the My Services application to manage your own users and their roles. Your view in the My Services application is
limited to the users and roles in the identity domains that you have been assigned to manage. You see all the roles at the domain and service levels.

The identity domain administrator role gives a user the following privileges:

Access to all user and role management functions in My Services, including:


Managing User Accounts
Adding and Removing Custom Roles

Substitution variables act as global placeholders for information that changes regularly. For example, you could set the current month member to the substitution
variable CurMnth so that when the month changes, you need not update the month value manually in the form or the report script.

References: https://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/pbcs_common/PFUSA/about_substitution_variables.htm

QUESTION 8
The company would like to enable Financials, Workforce, and Project frameworks. They would like to plan and forecast the Project dimension in the Financials
framework, as well as track employee utilization in the projects framework.

Which two actions must they take to ensure that the Project dimension is shared and the data integrated correctly across all three frameworks?

A. In the Projects framework, ensure that the Employee driver-based expense is enabled.
B. In the Workforce framework, rename one of the custom dimensions to “Project” and enable it
C. In the Financials framework, rename one of the custom dimensions to “Project” and enable it
D. In the Workforce framework, ensure that the granularity is at Employee or Employee and Job

Correct Answer: CD
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
C: In Financials if you are enabling features for the first time, you must define all custom dimensions. You can’t define these later.

D: Enable and configure Workforce. For integration with Projects, utilization is computed at the employee level, so on the Enable page, for Granularity, select
either Employee or Employee and Job.

QUESTION 9
When calculating a tiered type of tax, what should be the selected ‘Maximum Value Type’?

A. Threshold Amount
B. Percentage of Taxable Earnings
C. Percentage of Salary
D. Flat Amount
E. Percentage of Overall Earnings

Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Setting the Maximum Value Type to Threshold Amount is available only for Taxes (not Additional Earnings or Benefits). If the Maximum Value Type is set to
Threshold Amount, then the threshold of each tier drives the tiered calculations. The application applies all tiers to the default assignment, as appropriate,
regardless of the tier assigned as a default.

C. Selecting a single unmapped dimension members of the source to map to multiple unmapped dimension member on the target
D. Selecting multiple unmapped dimension members of the source to map to multiple unmapped dimension member on the target

Correct Answer: AB
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:

B. Four custom reporting applications can be initialized
C. Approvals is not included
D. Groovy calculations are available

Correct Answer: BC
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:

entity or part of an entity. You can have one scenario/version combination per approval unit. Scenarios and versions are the basis of the review cycle. Approval
units submit planning data for a scenario and version.

Incorrect Answers:
D: Oracle supports the creation of business rules written in the Groovy scripting language. Groovy business rules allow you to design sophisticated rules that
solve use cases that normal business rules can't solve; for example, rules to prevent users from saving data on forms if the data value is above a predefined
threshold.

QUESTION 51
Which three are Enterprise Planning and Budgeting Cloud (EPBCS) features that can be used to help streamline the amount of time a user spends in a web
form? (Choose three.)

A. Valid intersections
B. Hide dimension name
C. Action menus
D. User variables
E. Workflow
Correct Answer: ACD
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
C: Administrators can create right-click (or action) menus and associate them with forms, enabling users to click rows or columns in forms and select menu
items.

D: You can define user variables to help planners focus on particular members, such as their department's expenses. For example, you can create a form with
entities on the rows, and a user variable called Department. You can limit the number of rows displayed on the form by selecting a member for the Department
user variable, such as Sales. Later, you can select another value for Department, such as Marketing.

A: Valid intersections let administrators define rules, called valid intersection rules, that filter dimensional intersections for planners when they enter data or
select runtime prompts. For example, you can specify that certain programs are valid only for specific departments. Leverage valid intersections to control data
entry only to valid intersections.
For form design, if the dimensions that are set in the valid intersection are found on the Page, the user will be presented only with valid combinations in the
member selector. If the dimensions that are set with valid intersections are found on the column or row, the form designer can suppress invalid intersections
completely. When the suppression option isn't selected, invalid intersections are set to read only.
