In today’s posting on the Oracle BI Applications, we’re going to add a new attribute to an existing dimension table in the Oracle Business Analytics data warehouse. If you’re new to this, this is part of a series of postings on the Oracle BI Applications that includes:

An Introduction to the Oracle BI Applications
Installing and Configuring […]

Chris Claterbos from Vlamis has picked up on the story that one of the first official iPhone apps is a front-end for Oracle BI Enterprise Edition. The App Store hasn’t gone live over here yet, but apparently one of the first applications you can download (and for free) is a viewer application for Oracle BI […]

As one of the key benefits of the BI Apps is its extensibility, one of the first things I’d want to know if I was a customer is exactly […]

I just noticed today that it’s more or less five years to the day since I started writing this blog. It’s been an interesting five years both personally and professionally for me; I gave my first conference presentation more or less five years ago, soon after I started chairing the UKOUG BI & Reporting Tools […]

In a couple of recent articles, (here, here) I’ve given an overview of the Oracle BI Applications and stepped through the installation and configuration of Oracle BI Applications Fusion Edition (7.9.5). In this posting I’ll be walking through the initial load of the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse, using Order Management data taken from Oracle E-Business […]
