Using the Business Transaction Monitoring Reports
Monitor all transactions for your organization's services using the Transactions menu in the navigation menu.
Following are ways to use this menu:
The Transactions Dashboard is displayed on the navigation bar only for services where BTM has been enabled.
If BTM has not been enabled, the Transactions Dashboard is hidden at the Customer and Service levels.
BTM metrics are sourced from Oracle® Enterprise Manager, which, in turn, interrogates the supported Oracle applications. BTM supports Oracle® E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft batch jobs, which are taken from Oracle® E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft.
Oracle Pulse can be configured to report on specific targets that Oracle® Enterprise Manager monitors. Your Oracle SDM can work with you to set up and identify your key business transactions for monitoring.
The terms batch job and concurrent program are used interchangeably in Oracle Pulse.
The Transactions menu provides information about the performance of your BTM transactions, as well as details about the stability and performance of each of your services or locations.
By default, the reports on the Transactions dashboard are generated in the GMT time zone. However, you can identify potential issues in your own time zone, as explained in the Generating Reports for Different Time Periods section in Working with Oracle Pulse. This allows you to easily relate performance metrics reflected by the reports to anomalies occurring across the selected environment. Moreover, the data in the corresponding exported output is also reported in your preferred time zone.
Where charts are available, you can click the Open Table View icon (
) to see the data. You can use the tables on the Transactions dashboard to:
-
sort records, as explained in the Sorting Records section in Working with Oracle Pulse.
-
export data, as explained in the Exporting Data section in Working with Oracle Pulse.
