As part of UMHS Financial Systems goal of providing one version of the truth in a centralized environment we are transitioning the hosting of our Hyperion applications from ITS to MCIT.
This will allow all of our supported tools to be integrated and provide a single ‘version of the truth’ across all systems.
As of July 1, 2014, the ITS application/connection will no longer be available; at that time all users will need to utilize the MCIT connection.
What does this mean to me?

The URL to access Hyperion Workspace will change

The URL to access UMHSCons in the Microsoft Office add in Smart View will change

All dimensions and members will remain exactly the same between the two environments

The MCIT Application (ConsFY14) will mimic the UMHSCons you are familiar with o There are some functionality improvements with the newer software versions, which can be found in the attached document o Data will be loaded monthly into both systems for the remainder of FY14

As FY14 financials are being finalized, Financial Systems has granted you access to the new
UMHSCons application. The final fiscal year 2014 data will be loaded into ConsFY14. The
ConsFY14 application will serve as a reference for the historic financials. All of the
Account/Fund/Department hierarchies will remain as they were at year-end FY14, and no further updates will be made to the application after the year has been finalized.
Starting with FY15, data will be loaded into the UMHSCons application, which will also contain
5 years of historic data. UMHSCons will serve as the current year’s consolidated financial reporting application. All Account/Fund/Department hierarchy updates will be made in this application and all historic years’ data will be reflected under the current hierarchies for comparison purposes.
There are a few of updates to the UMHSCons application for FY15:

Dimension names are no longer plural o Account vs Accounts o Period vs Periods o Fund vs Funds o Balance vs Balances o Year vs Years o Department vs Departments

The dimensions Program Code, Class and Project Grant are not included

Restructuring of Total Payroll members o Payroll is no longer split into subaccounts (OT/temp/Regular/Special/JE) o House Officer Salaries and AFSCME Salaries are now children of Total Salaries
(no longer Other Salaries)

Minor changes have been made to use consistent naming conventions across the entire application o Removal of /, replaced with & (with a few exceptions) o Ordering zero-level member names alphabetically

The former numeric budget categories used by the HHC have been replaced with alpha numeric text following a standard convention throughout the Account dimension o See Financial Systems webpage for updated account hierarchy ( UMHSCons
Dimensions )

Smart View templates on the Hyperion Workspace site have been updated o Located in Workspace at UMHS Finance Workspace > SmartView Templates for
UMHSCons

The FY15 budget will be loaded for July FY15 reporting


The Statistics in ConsFY14 will be loaded for July FY15 reporting
We understand that FY15 reporting will begin very shortly so please contact
UMHSFinancialSystems@med.umich.edu
if you would like help updating and testing any reports that you currently have.
Documentation on how to connect to UMHSCons and update your Smart View templates, including an Excel macro, are available on the Financial Systems Website http://www.med.umich.edu/finance/FinancialSystems/services/
In following with the strategy of matching reporting requirements with the most efficient tool, the primary source of project grant reporting will be Finance BI (Oracle OBIEE) going forward.
In order to provide a smooth transition to the new system we are creating an application in
Hyperion Essbase that will contain the Project Grant information. This will allow users to continue to run Smart View reports they have created and utilize the standard reports on
Workspace.
Information about the new application ProjGrnt

If you receive this email, then you are currently provisioned to the ProjGrnt application

Account/Fund/Department hierarchies will exactly match UMHSCons

Data will be loaded at the same frequency as UMHSCons
