YTD Measures “backported” from R12 to R11.5.10.2

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010 by Barry Crawley

Oracle released a patch (7388541) recently that “backported” YTD measures (in performance reporting) back from R12 to R11.5.10.2. In fact the patch does not backport functionality from R12. What it does is put in new measures in the project list only. Slightly irritating are the following facts:

  • The patch does not backport the YTD measures that exist under the reporting tab
  • The new measures that the patch introduces in R11.5.10.2, under the project list, do not currently exist under the project list in R12. As far as I can understand this is an ‘oversight’ by Oracle in R12, and will be resolved soon.

Anyway, all that aside, below is a link to a PDF file with 5 sections that compares what is available in R11.5.10.2 without the patch, with the patch, and in R12 (as at time of writing).

 Performance Reporting Measures comparison

Sections are:

  • Project List Table
  • PJI – Task Summary
  • PJI – Resource Summary
  • PJI Calculated Measures
  • PJI Stored Measures

Anecdotally I have heard of other problems with this patch. I am interested to hear about anybody’s experiences with this patch.

Year-to-Date (YTD) measures available in R12 Performance Reporting

Monday, September 7th, 2009 by Andy Coates

In Oracle Projects 11i, year-to-date (YTD) measures are not available in performance reporting (period to date, quarter to date and inception to date are the only offering). This was/is very odd, as the Project Intelligence (PJI) summarisation tables do summarise measures on a YTD basis. Fortunately, in R12.1.1, YTD measures are now available. For example, the YTD measures can be utilised in the Task Summary page of performance reporting, as well as user defined sored or computed YTD custom measures.
