Your data, transformed and validated inside SAP — then loaded directly into Oracle EPM.

EPM FastTrack is an SAP-certified ABAP add-on that selects, transforms and validates your financial data inside SAP before loading it to Oracle EPM — enabling every Oracle EPM figure to be drilled-down back to the SAP transactions behind it.

The problem

SAP and Oracle EPM: familiar pain points.

Manual data enrichment.

SAP data extracted and manually mapped in spreadsheets before loading — error-prone and time-consuming every single period.

Batch loads at month-end only.

Data only exists in Oracle EPM format at close — no upfront visibility or interim reporting until then.

No drill-down to source.

Once data leaves SAP it loses its link to the originating transaction — reconciliation becomes a manual detective exercise.

Quick fixes, lasting gaps.

Late journals and rejections leave no time to rerun the ETL cycle — fixes happen directly in Oracle EPM, breaking .integrity between systems

Architecture

Everything runs from within SAP.

EPM FastTrack is an ABAP add-on. It lives inside SAP. The full Oracle EPM metadata is replicated in SAP, and the REST API connection to Oracle EPM is initiated outbound — nothing reaches in. Your security team will appreciate the difference.

Capabilities

Transform Oracle EPM data inside SAP — not outside it.

Selection and transformation run wholly inside SAP — at database level in S/4 HANA, at application level with parallel processing in ECC. Validation runs at application level in both, against the full HFM metadata replicated into your SAP landscape — F4 dropdowns, standard job scheduling, no-code configuration.

SAP → OracLe EPM

Transformation of current data.

Selection and transformation take place in SAP, so the moment a document is posted it is included in the load. The rapid transformation of live data and direct load means Oracle EPM can be accurately updated as journals are posted in SAP during the month end.

No extraction layer. Most ETL tools extract data from SAP, transform it elsewhere, then load it into Oracle EPM, introducing latency into the process. EPM FastTrack does this all in SAP on the current data — so no third-party middleware, no external hardware, no file transfers.

SAP → OracLe EPM

Continuous accounting.

Errors can be identified the moment they occur — not at close when there’s no time to fix them. Oracle EPM data can be reviewed and validated throughout the period, directly in SAP. Data can be loaded throughout the period when required, not just at the close.

Close becomes a confirmation. By the time the period closes, the data is already correct and ready to submit. When workflow flags something mid-month, drill-down finds the cause in minutes — so it’s fixed long before close, not scrambled for at the last moment.

SAP → OracLe EPM

Performance at scale.

In S/4 HANA, selection and transformation run at database level using the in-memory database — bypassing the bottlenecks of extract-and-load. Parallel processing is also available in both ECC and S/4HANA, accelerating work at application level where needed. Data selection is dynamically optimised based on the mapping rules.

Millions of records, one process. Built for the volumes and increasing reporting demands from EPM systems — ledger data , universal journal postings, intercompany transactions, cost allocations and look-ups from logistics and master data — all processed as a single run, not as a series of batch runs.

Foundation

Full Oracle metadata — replicated into SAP.

Before any data moves, EPM FastTrack retrieves the complete Oracle EPM application metadata — entities, accounts, scenarios, custom dimensions — and stores it inside SAP (and keeps it up to date). This is what makes every other capability possible: when mapping tables are configured, drop-down lists offer valid Oracle EPM member values, and any value typed in directly is checked against that same metadata and rejected if invalid. Drill-down, mapping traces and no-code configuration all are made available by SAP having a current picture of the Oracle EPM application.

No-code mapping.
Business users build data selections and mappings in SAP without coding using a library of business-ready data sources — configuration can be readily updated to reflect changes in the business structure, such as acquisitions or restructuring.
Validation.
Every dimension and intersection is checked against the Oracle EPM metadata replicated in SAP, throughout the period and before any data leaves SAP. This process runs continuously in the background, with SAP Workflow triggered when validation errors occur.
Mapping trace.
Check exactly how Oracle EPM dimension members are derived from SAP data.

SAP → OracLe EPM

API integration.

Data and journals loaded directly into Oracle EPM from SAP using the standard Oracle EPM APIs — the same interfaces Oracle EPM itself relies on. Oracle EPM metadata synchronises automatically via API, so mappings and validations are always current.

Scan loads from SAP. As part of continuous accounting, these can be triggered directly from SAP — checking dimension member and intersection integrity directly in Oracle EPM and reporting results back, without leaving the SAP environment.

SAP → OracLe EPM

Comprehensive financial data.

Balance sheet movements, intercompany transactions, cost allocations and margin detail — the full range of financial data an Oracle EPM submission needs, drawn directly from SAP financial sources.

Reporting characteristics derived in SAP. Where an Oracle EPM dimension depends on non-financial data — such as deriving a country for geographical analysis from the customer master — EPM FastTrack can be configured to reference the relevant master data or logistics tables within SAP to determine it — no need to extract further data or develop custom code.

OracLe EPM → SAP

Drill-down & provenance.

EPM FastTrack produces the Oracle EPM data in SAP and this is exactly what is loaded into Oracle EPM itself — same dimension values, same totals, built up through the same hierarchy. Because both the data and the hierarchy exist in SAP, any Oracle EPM figure can be drilled down directly, at any level.

Oracle EPM and SAP side by side.  Drilling into the SAP-side total shows every contributing posting with both Oracle EPM dimensions and SAP characteristics — cost centre, profit centre, G/L account — in one view.

How it compares

EPM FastTrack vs the alternatives.

The questions that matter most for SAP customers evaluating how to connect to Oracle EPM.

EPM FastTrack
Oracle FDMEE / DATA MANAGEMENT / DATA EXCHANGE
Traditional ETL approach.
Where transformation happens.
Inside SAP — no extraction, the moment data exists, it can be rapidly transformed and loaded to Oracle EPM.
Outside SAP — data extracted to an external layer first; multiple connectors needed per source.
When data is ready.
Throughout the period — correct, validated data available from day one, not just at close.
At load time only — validation runs when data is loaded into Oracle EPM at month-end, no early warning.
Validation.
Continuous, in SAP — transformed data validated against Oracle EPM metadata as it’s processed, errors flagged as they occur.
At load time only — validation runs when data is loaded into FDMEE at month-end, no early warning.
Drill-down.
Same totals, same hierarchies — Oracle EPM figures are produced in SAP, with direct drill-down to source postings.
Limited, coded per source — must be built separately for each data source.
Set-up & adaptability.
Code-free, two weeks — one connector for all SAP sources, scope changes made without coding, and production data can be worked with early in implementation.
High coding effort — multiple connectors per source, changes require substantial additional coding.
