New Features in This Release

Following is the list of new features incorporated in this release. For detailed information on usage of these features, see OFS Analytical Applications Infrastructure 8.0.3.0.0 User Guide.

1.          Model Upload

Naming Convention of constraints (PK and FK) has been changed to resolve the following issues:

·  For tables with similar names which are relatively long (>27 characters) where initial few characters differ (for example, STG_COMMON_ACCOUNT_SUMMARY, FCT_COMMON_ACCOUNT_SUMMARY), the constraint names get generated as same causing an Oracle error of duplicate constraints.

·  When number of foreign keys for a table is more than 100, the length of the constraint name exceeds the permissible limits allowed by Oracle Database.

Update Constraints utility (23251358) is introduced to alter the existing constraint name references according to the new convention. A unique ID gets generated for each data model entities.  The new constraint name will be generated by appending the unique ID with ‘FK’ or ’PK’ (along with a sequence for FK). For example PK on DIM_ACCOUNT will be formed as PK_101, where 101 is the unique id of DIM_ACCOUNT. Similarly, FKs on FCT_ACCOUNT_SUMMARY will be FK_206_01, FK_206_02, FK_206_03, FK_206_04, where 206 is the unique id of FCT_ACCOUNT_SUMMARY and the table has 4 FKs.

For more information, see OFS AAAI Application Pack Installation and Configuration Guide_8.0.3.0.0.

2.          Process Modelling Framework

·  Supports asynchronous invocation of workflow

·  Supports setting reminder for a task

·  Supports setting expiry date for a task

·  Supports escalation of tasks

·  Supports delegation of task to peers or subordinates

·  Parallel gateway is introduced, which can be used to execute multiple transitions in parallel.

·  Multi Choice gateway is introduced, which can be used to execute multiple transitions/flows based on a decision rule.

·  Supports Committee approval/Group Consensus that can be used to decide whether the flow has to move to a particular activity based on the response of a single member, majority of members of the group, or all members of the group. If more than one group is present, then you can design to move the flow to a particular activity based on the response of a single group, all groups or the majority of groups.

3.          Data Quality Framework

·  OFSAAI is provided with a comprehensive business semantic rich and FSI domain centric Data Quality Rule Type called Control Total Check. This type of quality check allows configuration of entity-attributes (multiple ones) checked against a reference entity with its set of attributes.  Both LHS (subject entity) and RHS (reference entity) permit tagging aggregate functions to attributes, adding dimension-filters to the where-clause and supporting group-by predicates. 

4.          Business Metadata Management

UAM Hierarchy resave utility (runit.sh) is enhanced with an additional option to save the hierarchies in synchronous manner.

5.          Run Rule Framework

·  Run definition supports selection of AMHM filter as Run condition and/or Job condition.

6.          System Configuration and Identity Management

·   Supports configuration of OFSAAA with multiple LDAP directories

·  FTPSHARE DB and APP server screen now accepts special characters for password

·  OFSAA is enhanced to act as service provider for SAML integration

7.          Forms Framework

·  Supports collapsing of Rich Text Control editor

·  Toggle button is introduced

·  Supports events for Rich Text Control

·  Supports yen special character in UI

·  Supports reuse of Grid/ Child form

·  Customization for displaying basic Rich Text Control is introduced

·  Multi Select Control now supports Focus event

·  Supports either Single Select or Multi Select Control based on the corresponding column value of the grid

·  Supports configurable Search fields in Hierarchy Control

·  Hourglass/ Progress bar is introduced to show the duration of document upload

·  Supports  Hierarchy Control Search functionality for non-list custom hierarchy

·  Displays an alert message if exporting records crosses a specified limit

·  Hierarchy Control is enhanced not to accept a root node

·  Supports configuring expansion level for custom Hierarchies

·  Configuration parameter is introduced for not displaying UI search in Hierarchy Control window

·  Supports assigning values to Label Control

·  Supports partial save of forms by highlighting the mandatory fields

o    Blocks (Frames)

o    Forms

o    Containers

o    Controls
