The HFM Express Adapter is a universal adapter for all versions of Oracle (Hyperion) Financial Management until version 11.1.2.4. The main difference with the existing HFM Adapter is that the HFM Express Adapter does not rely on the Data Extraction module of Financial Management (also known as Extended Analytics). Instead it extracts data and metadata by directly connecting to the relational database underlying HFM (SQL Server or Oracle). Also, the configuration and execution of the data extraction process has been simplified.The Adapter can be started from the (non-web based) Source System Manager2. The Adapter can be managed by the Source System Manager. You need to be an Admin user within CXO.

Prerequisites

If the relational database underlying HFM is an Oracle database, then ODAC must be installed on the CXO Cockpit Application Server. We tested version 11.2 Release 6 (11.2.0.4.0), but newer versions may also work.
