Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC)

As part of McMaster’s Oracle roadmap to support PeopleSoft and Business Intelligence reporting, IRA and UTS have been partnering to migrate components of McMaster’s Oracle BI platform from local/on-premises infrastructure to Oracle Cloud infrastructure.

Overall, the look and functionality of the BI Dashboards will remain the same. While the overall impact of this change will be low for users, there are a couple items we would like to notify you about:

1. Sign in will use your McMaster email (instead of Mac ID)
2. Unfortunately, any saved customizations cannot be migrated to the Cloud environment, and you will need to set up and resave your customizations once we are live in the Cloud environment (June 19, 2023). We recommend creating a list of your current saved customizations, and taking screenshots if you have customized report formatting saved, to make this process easier.
