Narrative Reporting in Oracle EPM Cloud

Narrative Reporting is a purpose-built business process available in the Oracle EPM Cloud for management, narrative and regulatory reporting. It provides a secure, collaborative, process-driven approach for defining, authoring, reviewing and publishing financial and management report packages for internal and external stakeholders, as well as a cross-cloud service reporting tool for producing integrated EPM Cloud reporting.

It includes the capabilities to generate XML-based, as well as PDF based narrative reports required for the submission to local regulators to satisfy Country by Country Tax Reporting (CbCr). Report packages can also be used to meet XBRL-based reporting mandates. Taxonomy management, tagging, validation, generation and submission of XBRL/iXBR- based reporting are also supported powered by Ez-XBRL©.

Narrative Reporting streamlines the narrative reporting process by providing a flexible, intuitive method for creating a secured and auditable report package. Using existing documents, a previous report package, or letting the system automatically create doclets, users can quickly create a report package in mere minutes and with minimal information.
