As companies implement Oracle EPM Cloud components (FCC, Planning, ARC, etc.), EPM Automate is almost always a part of the process.
Typically with data loads and backups, which all of the components need, but also restructures, database refreshes, and more. Along with the growth in these scripts is the need to communicate to users and admins the status of everything.
Each script can send an email or a text with the status of each run. But with hourly data loads, backups, restructures, regression tests, etc. the number of emails can easily become overwhelming.
An email or text should be sent if there are problems, but if things are going well, is a deluge of emails really the right solution?
As an alternative, a simple webpage can do the trick. Since EPM Automate typically runs on a server, the server can also serve up a webpage with the status of each job.
The basic steps are to have each script write the status to a web page.
Then use an overall web page that incorporates all of the individual status pages.
Users can access the one overall page to see where everything is in real time.
