GLSense: Integrated Financial Reporting for Excel Users https://erp.today/glsense-integrated-financial-reporting-for-excel-users/ Fri, 02 May 2025 20:37:17 +0000 https://erp.today/?p=130044 Finance teams rely heavily on Excel for creating accurate financial statements, but its widespread use poses risks of errors and data loss due to lack of governance and desktop limitations.

The post GLSense: Integrated Financial Reporting for Excel Users appeared first on ERP Today.

]]>
Finance users have the substantial responsibility of producing accurate balance sheets and
other financial statements every quarter. Although these reports are a high-level view of a
business’ finances, compiling them requires research at a very granular level, into thousands
(or more) business transactions.

The tool finance teams use for success is Excel. Even after 35 years, it is still the tool of
choice for finance departments. A trusted solution, Excel is not going away any time soon.

Excel does present challenges, however. It’s easy for users to introduce errors into spread-
sheets by applying an incorrect formula to a cell or by copying and pasting incorrect cells.

Changes to spreadsheets tend to populate across an organization with little data governance,
or require a significant amount of time to validate every time a change is made. Since Excel
spreadsheets are primarily desktop-based, they are at risk for data loss or ransomware
attacks.

From GLWand to GLSense: Transforming Financial Reporting for Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP with AI-Powered Excel Integration https://erp.today/from-glwand-to-glsense-transforming-financial-reporting-for-oracle-fusion-cloud-erp-with-ai-powered-excel-integration/ Wed, 09 Apr 2025 21:44:05 +0000 https://erp.today/?p=129435 As organizations shift from Oracle E-Business Suite to Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP, the migration leaves a gap in Excel-based financial reporting previously filled by GLWand, which is now addressed by Orbit GLSense, a modern reporting solution that combines intuitive Excel integration, AI-powered insights, and cloud architecture to enhance financial analysis and decision-making.

The post From GLWand to GLSense: Transforming Financial Reporting for Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP with AI-Powered Excel Integration appeared first on ERP Today.

When organizations ran their financials on Oracle E-Business Suite, GLWand quickly rose to prominence as a user-friendly excel integration with Oracle Fusion reporting tool. Its ability to connect financial data directly to Microsoft Excel, intuitive drill-downs, and flexible Excel-based reporting for Oracle ERP options made automating month-end close with Oracle Fusion faster and audits simpler. However, as enterprises migrate from Oracle E-Business Suite to Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP reporting, many users miss that familiar Excel-driven experience. GLWand is no longer an option in Fusion. So, what’s next? Enter Orbit GLSense, the perfect GLWand alternative for Oracle Fusion. It is a modern Excel reporting solution designed to bridge the gap for Oracle Fusion while augmenting with cutting-edge AI-powered financial reporting and cloud architecture at scale.

Why GLWand was so successful in Oracle E-Business Suite

GLWand empowered finance teams working with Oracle E-Business Suite to:

  • Intuitive Excel Integration: Finance professionals could build, refresh, and analyze their reports in Excel, eliminating time-consuming data exports and manual reconciliations.
  • Direct Connection to Data: Seamless connectivity to the Oracle EBS General Ledger allowed on-demand reporting without reliance on IT or complex queries.
  • Speed and Accuracy: Automating month-end close with Oracle Fusion and the ability to drill down into transactional details helped maintain data integrity and streamline audit processes.

 

This combination of direct data access, intuitive reporting, and Excel’s familiar interface turned GLWand into a staple for organizations running on E-Business Suite. The Void in Oracle Fusion: Missing that Familiar Excel-Based Reporting With the migration to Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP reporting, many organizations quickly realized that the intuitive Excel-based reporting they once relied on was no longer available. Native Oracle Fusion reporting tools often require more complex navigation, forcing users to learn new interfaces or rely on IT teams for custom reports. The result? Finance users long for a more straightforward and efficient approach that lets them explore, analyze, and manipulate their financial data without leaving Excel.

Introducing Orbit GLSense from Orbit Analytics: The Modern Excel Reporting Solution for Oracle Fusion

GLSense steps into this gap, offering a purpose-built solution to bring back the simplicity and power of Excel-based financial reporting, this time for Oracle Fusion.

  2. Unified Reporting: With GLSense, one can connect with EBS and Fusion simultaneously and build unified reporting seamlessly with data from multiple sources.
  3. Automatic Drilldowns into Sub-Ledgers: Like GLWand did for EBS, GLSense enables financial analysts to drill down into Oracle Fusion sub-ledger reporting – AP, AR, FA, and Projects directly from Excel. Spot a variance in the GL balance? Click and drill into the underlying transactions, reducing the time spent chasing details across multiple screens.
  4. Faster Month-End Closes: GLSense accelerates the financial close process by putting all the data at the fingertips of finance teams. Users can create, refresh, and validate financial statements in Excel in minutes rather than hours or days.
  5. Access to Sub-Ledger Data from Orbit GLSense: Orbit GLSense architecture ensures that Oracle Fusion sub-ledger reporting and journal details are all just a click away. It’s not just about having data, it’s about having it exactly when needed.
