Traffic and Summary Data Not Displayed Correctly When Grouped by Week
Summary Reports Based on Date Range Produce a JavaScript Error

Included per bug 7824771.
When viewing Summary Metrics in a tabular form with Oracle WebCenter Interaction in accessibility mode, the data is not properly aligned with the columns.
Included per bug 7825404.
When viewing Analytics graphs and charts with Oracle WebCenter Interaction in accessibility mode, the graphs and charts do not include ALT text, so the coordinates are not visible in charts and data points are not visible in graphs.
Included per bug 7827113.
When viewing metrics in the Analytics Console with Oracle WebCenter Interaction in accessibility mode, if the font size is increased to 200%, the text does not get displayed properly.
Included per bug 7827177.
When viewing Analytics charts and reports with Oracle WebCenter Interaction in accessibility mode, the text description does not appear when a user places the cursor over the image.
Included per bug 7827398.
When viewing the Analytics Console in Mozilla Firefox with Oracle WebCenter Interaction in accessibility mode, the links in the Help section are not clickable.
Included per bug 11808987.
Within the Analytics Console, when adding a filter set to a security role, users cannot add filters to the filter set if the name of the role has not been set.
To avoid this issue, name the role before trying to create a filter set.
Included per bug 12387962.
While upgrading Oracle WebCenter Analytics on Linux, the installer fails to use the location from the previous install. You must enter the installation location.
Included per bug 12355901.
The default filtering must be shown based on the Global Filter Set created in Analytics Administration. While viewing data in the Analytics Console, the global filtering options (from the Global Filter Set created in Analytics Administration) are not applied.
Included per bug 11735951.
When viewing Traffic or Summary Metrics in the Analytics Console, the data is not displayed correctly when grouped by week. This issue occurs only when Oracle WebCenter Interaction and its back-end database are running with different locales.
Included per bug 9490960.
Within the Analytics Console, when generating a Summary Metrics - Users report based on a date range, clicking the Calendar button produces a JavaScript error. This issue occurs primarily with languages that use a period (.) as the date separator.
Note:
The Summary Metrics - Users report has been deprecated and is disabled by default.
As a workaround, set the date manually in the text field.
Included per bug 8677047.
While generating a summary or traffic report, if a user enters the date manually and the date text box loses focus, the date decreases by one day.
As a workaround, enter the date through the date picker instead of entering it manually.
Included per bug 7826419.
Within the Analytics console, while logged in as an Administrator, if the display option is set to Specify Folder and Sub Folders is selected, the reports are sorted alphabetically instead of by count.
Included per bug 12412794.
There is an issue within Hibernate with its query cache which prevents it from caching query information. This issue occurs only in AIX.
As a workaround, set parameter hibernate.cache.use_query_cache
to false
in the hibernate.properties file under settings/config folder. This needs to be performed both in the ptcollector and ptanalytics folders.
