Oracle’s Hyperion Planning is the centralized and web-based application that the UT HSC at San Antonio uses for budget planning and reporting. This tool was developed to assist in building an all funds budget in order to uniformly monitor the attainment of financial goals across the vast portfolio of funds managed by departments and the institution. It has allowed for the promotion and cultivation of comprehensive analytics throughout the institution. Its use has greatly improved our system of accountability and transparency of financial performance, and has further enabled us to align financial and planning efforts with the institution’s overarching strategic plan.

The process for setting position budgets will be performed in PeopleSoft HCM (portal link) and the process for setting revenue and non-salary budgets, as well as routing consolidated budgets for departmental, Executive Committee, and institutional approval will occur in Hyperion (portal link). After all departmental budgets have been promoted to the institutional level; the Budget Office will generate the final budget documents for submission to UT System.
