Option B is incorrect because using Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) to query General Ledger balances will not show you the future account balance. Option D is incorrect because running a trial balance before and after posting will not show you the current account balance.

The benefits of having the Essbase cube embedded in General Ledger Cloud are that general ledger balances are multidimensional, allowing you to perform robust reporting and analysis using different dimensions and hierarchies, and that you can access real-time results for reporting and analysis because every time a transaction is posted in General Ledger, multidimensional balances are also updated simultaneously. Posting performance is not faster because of the Essbase cube, as posting still involves updating the relational tables. Integrating with third-party systems is not easier because of the Essbase cube, as this involves using web services or file-based data import. You still need to create and maintain hierarchies because the Essbase cubes are not created when you create your chart of accounts, but when you complete the accounting configuration.
