HFM PSU 11.1.2.4.200 is available

PSU 200 is out for HFM 11.1.2.4 - four new features!

Rules Profiling

You can use rules profiling to capture in-depth information about rules execution at the major subroutine level. Rules profiles include statistics about time spent calculating, translating, and consolidating each entity during a consolidation task.

Duplicating Applications

You can duplicate of the contents of an application to create a new application. You can duplicate an application in the same environment and rename it, or register the new application in a different project and cluster.

Importing Applications

You can import an application across databases or across EPM systems. Both EPM systems should use Oracle DB or SQL Server.

Viewing Data Grids, Forms, and Process Control as Charts

This release includes the ability to view data grids, data forms, and Process Control information as charts. You can customize the chart display, and also print charts.


And lots of bug fixes!
