Hello There. I have a project where I need to connect a customer's Oracle Hyperion Financial Management to Qlik Sense. I have never used HFM before so I browsed the Community to see if a direct connection was possible. I am seeing mixed responses so I wanted to throw the question out again. Thanks in advance.
Hi
Description
Resolution
One option is to use Essbase Analytics Link (EAL) from Oracle/Hyperion which creates a virtual cube on top of HFM data. From there the connector will connect to the virtual Essbase Cube. The other option is to use HFM extended analytics which generates a Star Schema from HFM.
Another option is to load the flat file extracted out of HFM into a Relational database. From there, Qlik would just use the ODBC connection to that Relational DB.
Thanks
