No matter what type of reporting and analytics you need, Orbit and Oracle are the ultimate pair to help you improve your current reporting, drive business growth, and make important decisions.

How does Orbit Reporting and Analytics work?

Key Features and Benefits

Unlock the Full Potential of Your Oracle EBS Data

A core purpose of your company’s Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) system is to streamline processes and information across your enterprise. However, without the proper applications, the system does not always do what it should. Both business and IT users complain about the complexity and inflexibility when producing reports with Oracle EBS.

Oracle EBS reporting tools, such as Oracle Discoverer and Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE), often force users to rely on IT to build and modify their operational and ad hoc reports. In addition, they must constantly request report customizations to keep up with business needs. This creates an endless loop of IT backlog, long wait times for business users, and endless frustration for everyone involved.

Complete, Built-in Integration with Oracle EBS Reporting

Orbit uses the same security definitions as Oracle E-Business Suite. That means all your EBS Responsibilities and Users automatically sync with Orbit — ensuring that users only see data in Orbit that they are authorized to see in Oracle EBS. In addition, Orbit integrates List of Values (LOVs), Descriptive Flexfields (DFFs) and Key Flexfields (KFFs) from Oracle EBS automatically.

Automatically Convert Your Discoverer Reports

As of June 2017, Oracle discontinued support for its ad hoc reporting tool, Discoverer. With Orbit, you don’t need to worry about the future of your operational and ad hoc reporting — even if you have thousands of Discoverer reports. Orbit offers a free Discoverer Migration Assistant that automatically converts your existing Discoverer reports, so you can maintain access and continue to use these reports in Orbit.

If you are migrating from Oracle Discoverer, with Orbit, you won’t need to worry about stalling your current operations or slowing down results. Orbit can quickly and efficiently accelerate your migration and improve your reporting with Oracle E-Business Suite data.

Gathering reports and analytics is incredibly important for your business — why not have it done for you quickly and effectively? With Orbit, you don’t need to recreate the wheel and create reports from scratch. Orbit includes more than 1,000 pre-built reports that are certified for Oracle E-Business Suite. These reports cover key areas, including Oracle Financials, Supply Chain, and HCM. View these reports in a variety of ways, including graphs, charts, pivots, and web-based tabular output without changing your entire operation. You can also easily customize any report to meet your business needs. Then, you can export your reports to Excel files, PDFs, or other user-friendly formats.
Orbit’s Modern Data Pipelines make it easy to centralize your data and bring it into a data warehouse or any staging database for reporting, analytics, and BI. Orbit’s pre-built connectors seamlessly integrate with Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Applications and then move the data to the destination from the source. It helps with unifying data from across teams including supply chain, finance, operations, sales, marketing, and HR. Orbit’s Pipelines, designed for safe data delivery and seamless data sync, can handle schema and API changes.
You might be hesitant to switch reporting platforms or add functionality to your existing EBS applications. Any change to your technology could result in security gaps that leave you vulnerable to threats. If you are going to make a switch in reporting platforms, you must know you are making a secure choice for your business. Orbit leverages the same security features as Oracle EBS. When a user logs into Orbit, they have to enter their EBS credentials. This ensures that they only see data that is relevant to their role. Orbit also automatically syncs your roles. If you change a role in EBS, Orbit will update it in real-time — giving you tight control over who accesses your data and what they can see.

Companies that complement their on-premise EBS system with cloud-based Applications such as Oracle Cloud ERP, Netsuite, SalesForce or Taleo often face a common reporting challenge — their ERP, HR, payroll, and finance data may not be well integrated. Orbit combines this important data by integrating your Oracle Cloud and on-premise EBS applications. This allows you to access data quickly from different business areas, so you do not make decisions based on a partial view of your operations.

Client Story

Based in Garhoud, Dubai, one of the two flag carriers of the United Arab Emirates, Emirates Airlines is a subsidiary of The Emirates Group; and is owned by the government of Dubai’s Investment Corporation of Dubai. Founded in 1985, Emirates is the fourth-largest airline in the world, with a fleet of nearly 300 airplanes flying to 150 cities in 80 countries with 3600 take-offs per week.

After selecting Orbit Reporting + Analytics, Emirates replaced Oracle’s Legacy Tool with Orbit’s Reporting Tool. This transition involved migrating over 600+ EBS and Non-EBS reports to Orbit, enabling Emirates to access and utilize these reports effectively. In addition to the report migration, Orbit also implemented a Single Sign-On Facility, simplifying access to and use of the Orbit Platform for Emirates users.

Furthermore, Emirates opted to implement XLEdge, an Excel-based solution from Orbit. XLEdge allows Emirates users to run their reports directly within Excel Spreadsheets, streamlining the reporting process and providing a more seamless experience.
