Common Technologies and User Experience

API and Schema

Notice About Obsolete Tables in Oracle Fusion Applications

Oracle Fusion Applications tables that were obsoleted in the past releases will no longer be available starting the next quarterly release. Read this document to identify the impacted tables and the release in which they were obsoleted so that you can plan your development tasks accordingly.

Applications Security

Introduced Limit on Number of Role Mappings

Create role mappings for roles auto provisioning with the number of role mappings limited to 50,000.

Approvals and Notifications

Configure From and Reply-To Email Address

In email notifications sent to users as part of workflow, the From and Reply-To fields have a default email address and no sender name. It's been possible to add a sender name to the From field. Now, you can also change the email address for the From and Reply-To fields.

Updated Oracle Visual Builder Studio

Here are some key things you can now do to extend your application pages using Visual Builder Studio:

  • In addition to configuring your applications to suit your specific business needs, you can now create your own application UIs and deploy them alongside other applications in your Fusion Applications instance. In fact, you can now use the same tools that Oracle uses— namely, Visual Builder Studio and Oracle Javascript Extension Toolkit (JET)— to build robust applications that are managed as part of the same Fusion Applications ecosystem as the application UIs produced by Oracle.

If you don’t see App UI in the Designer’s navigator, you might still be working with an older version of the Fusion Applications. In that case, you should continue to refer to the Using Visual Builder Studio with Classic Application Extensions guide. However, if you’re working in the new App UI world, refer to the Extending Oracle Cloud Applications with Visual Builder Studio guide. You might want to start with The Basics, just to get oriented.

  • Fragments are now supported in extensions (this doesn't apply to classic application extensions).
  • You can now run tests on action chains in extensions.

User Experience

Oracle Help Center Updates

The Oracle Help Center has adopted the Fusion Applications Taxonomy, the source of truth for classifying each pillar, family, and product in the portfolio.

We want to ensure that our Oracle-branded pillar, family, and product names promote Oracle's differentiation in delivering one cloud for all of our customers' lines of business. By naming and organizing our products this way, our customers can understand the scope of our product line and effectively find the information they need. A well-crafted taxonomy ensures an efficient experience for the Oracle ecosystem.

For example:

  • Oracle Applications Cloud: Using Functional Setup Manager is renamed to Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications: Using Functional Setup Manager
  • Oracle Field Service: Administering Oracle Field Service is renamed to Oracle Fusion Cloud Field Service: Administering Field Service

Changes in the Splash Screen for Android Devices

The Progressive Web Applications (PWA) splash screen for Android devices gets a new look with a different background color and a modified Oracle application launcher icon.

Ukrainian Language Is Added to the Language Pack on Your Application

The Ukrainian language is now added to the list of supported languages in the language pack. So, if activated, this language will appear as a language option on the General Preferences section of the Set Preferences work area.

Updated Oracle ADF Desktop Integration Add-In

You can now download the latest version of the Oracle ADF Desktop Integration add-in, version 5.1.1.24107. With this version, you get updated translations for a given language.

Reporting and Analytics

Deprecated and New BI View Objects in Oracle BI Cloud Connector

Business Intelligence View Objects (BIVOs) that are deprecated are no longer available for extraction using BI Cloud Connector (BICC).

If you use BICC to extract data from Oracle Fusion Applications Cloud, review the Deprecated and New BI View Objects spreadsheets to identify deprecated, inactive, and new BIVOs so that you can revise your BICC tasks to omit deprecated BIVOs and include new ones as appropriate.

Geography Data

Import the Latest Loqate Geography Data - 2022.06.04

You can import the latest geography data drop from Loqate: 2022.06.04. This is available for 82 countries. See the List of Available Countries with Loqate Geography Reference Data.

In this release, geography data was enhanced for a few countries.
