The following Patch Set Update (PSU) has been released for Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management (HPCM) 11.1.2.4.x.

Hyperion Profitability and Cost Management PSU 11.1.2.4.120
Patch 22066295

This patch can be applied to HPCM releases:


  • 11.1.2.4.000
  • 11.1.2.4.110
  • 11.1.2.4.100
  • 11.1.2.4.101

This is a cumulative patch and includes the new features, enhancements and defects fixed that were contained in the previous HPCM PSU 11.1.2.4.10x releases.

Check the Readme for List of Prerequisites.

New Features:

The New Features in the HPCM 11.1.2.4.120 release includes:

  • Templates Export/Import
    A new option to include input data has been added to the Templates Export/Import feature.  When the Include Input Data checkbox is checked in the Export Template dialog, the input data for all selected POVs will be included in the export.

    On the Import Template dialog, if input data is present in the template file being imported, the Import Input Data checkbox will be enabled and input data for all selected POVs will be imported.  The cube is always automatically deployed now, whether or not the input data is imported.

  • REST API Enhancements
Starting with this release, Profitability and Cost Management REST API version 11.1.2.4.000 is replaced by version V1.  Version 11.1.2.4.000 is disabled by default.  Oracle strongly recommends that you migrate to version V1.  If you need more time to migrate, contact Oracle Support for how to temporarily enable REST API version 11.1.2.4.000. The Profitability and Cost Management REST Web Services API version V1 differs from version 11.1.2.4.000. Review the readme for the ways in which the Profitability and Cost Management REST Web Services API version V1 differs from version 11.1.2.4.000.
  • Life Cycle Management (LCM) Export/Import Includes Dimensions
LCM Export for Profitability and Cost Management applications now allows you to export your application's dimension metadata along with the other model artifacts, into a single LCM export file.  An LCM export file that includes dimension metadata can be imported into a new, empty application that has been pre-created in the Profitability Applications console.

Additional information for the New Features introduced in this PSU and previous 11.1.2.4.10x releases is contained in the Readme file and in HPCM New Features document available at the Oracle Help Center.
