Note on Compatibility of Financial Applications (Cloud Financials) and ORFI: The release cycle of Cloud Fusion Financials (CFIN) does not align with Oracle Retail's Enterprise release cycle. Because of this discrepancy, the certification of newer versions of Cloud Financials with the Oracle Retail suite of applications can be delayed. Because the Oracle Retail Financial Integration (RFI) product aligns its release with the Oracle Retail Enterprise release cycle, Oracle Retail Development will attempt to certify RFI, and other Oracle Retail applications, with newer versions of CFIN in every major (.0), not minor (.x), release of Oracle Retail applications.Though they are not officially certified with Oracle Retail applications, the minor version patches of Cloud Financials (that are higher than that which is certified with Oracle Retail applications) may be compatible and function properly. Oracle Support will attempt to help customers to resolve issues that arise in these implementations that do not include documented, certified versions. Oracle Retail will try to duplicate the issues on certified versions of the integration, and if the issues can be duplicated in the certified versions, Oracle Retail will strive to fix and resolve the issues. If there arises an issue that cannot be resolved in an uncertified implementation, Oracle Retail maintains final discretion on its actions. In such situations, Oracle Support will try to help customers resolve their issues. Note, however, that in an uncertified version combination, SEV-1 escalations would not be allowed. |
