How to use EBS audit functionality to speed up operations

Customer January 28, 2024 at 7:49 pm

Our data governance team relies on EBS Audit functionality to track master data changes, but the standard Oracle audit reports are notoriously unreadable and lack essential contextual data, like the actual supplier name associated with the change log. How does Blitz Report solve this readability crisis?

  This is a frequent challenge addressed by Blitz Report, designed for Master Data Maintenance and governance teams. While the standard Oracle report is indeed unreadable and omits related data (such as the supplier name) , Blitz Report excels by utilizing SQL to retrieve and combine the audit trail with the necessary descriptive attributes, rendering the output clear and contextual in Excel.

  Can we target our auditing efforts to specific, high-risk fields instead of generating massive logs of every table change?

  Yes. We offer specialized reports like the ‘Audit Table Changes by Column Report’. This report allows master data teams and operational groups to quickly pinpoint and track precisely which fields were modified, significantly improving the speed and focus of your compliance and data governance operations.

  If we switch to Blitz Report for auditing, will we run into volume issues? Our audit tables can grow very large.

  A major advantage is overcoming the data volume issue inherent to Oracle’s default tools. Blitz Report explicitly states there are no volume limitations , unlike solutions like BI Publisher that cap row counts. This ensures you can extract and analyze the full scope of your audit data efficiently, outputted instantly as Excel files ready for analysis.

  Since this tool is so helpful for compliance and auditing, is it difficult to install and test this functionality?

  Not at all. Blitz Report is an add-on that can be installed in your EBS environment, typically within 15 to 30 minutes. You can test this specific auditing functionality immediately, as the software is free to use for up to your first 30 reports.
