[{"type":"paragraph","content":"Most Oracle EBS and Fusion customers we talk to have the same close-week pattern. A nightly extract feeds a warehouse. Reports are stale by morning. Finance and Operations debate which number is real until the controller picks one. Then the cycle repeats the next night."},{"type":"heading","level":2,"content":"Why Nightly Extracts Are Expensive"},{"type":"paragraph","content":"It is not the storage cost.
