Reporting in PeopleSoft – FSCM + HCM
PeopleSoft RECONNECT 20 5
• Traditional Reporting Tools
• PS Query
• Tool to create simple as well as complex queries to extract the data from PeopleSoft tables. Used extensively in creating Query Reports and it also serve as data source for other reporting tools like BI Publisher, nVision etc..
• SQR
• SQR is a programming language for accessing and manipulating data to create custom reports. SQR has many advantages, including portability across multiple platforms and relational database management systems and support of SQL data manipulation capabilities. It is also a fourth-generation language; it is closer to human languages and, therefore, more intuitive than first-, second-, or third-generation languages. SQR for PeopleSoft enables you to design report layouts, generate a variety of output types —including complex tabular reports, multiple page reports, form letters, mailing labels, and more—and create HTML, PDF, or configured output for laser printers and phototypesetters..

PeopleSoft RECONNECT 20 6
• Traditional Reporting Tools (.cont)
• nVision
• Excel add-in reporting for PeopleSoft. Reports are generated in an Excel spreadsheet and can be opened from PeopleSoft with online drill down to transactions.
• BI Publisher
• Business Intelligence (BI) Publisher for PeopleSoft Enterprise is a template-based reporting solution that separates the data extraction process from the report layout and allows the reuse of extracted application data into multiple report layouts. BI Publisher uses select features from Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher (BI Publisher) that have been integrated into PeopleTools.

PeopleSoft RECONNECT 20 7
• Embedded Analytics
• Pivot Grid
• Pivot Grid supports operational dashboard reporting within the PeopleTools framework to provide a pivot table and chart representation of data using PSQuerydata source. The framework also enables users to see different views of the data as in an Microsoft Excel pivot table, and the same data is also available in a chart view.
• Simplified Analytics
• Kibana
• Kibana for PeopleSoft provides rich analytics and visualization with performance enhancements – enabling better decision-making and improved understanding of your data. Kibana analytics don’t affect transactional processing because analytics are run against Elastic indexes, not the transactional database.
