Release 18.1.16.2
F26223-02
January 2020
This document highlights the major changes for Release 18.1.16.2 of Oracle Retail Brand Compliance Management Cloud Service.
Oracle Retail Brand Compliance Management Cloud Service is an application designed to meet all aspects of sourcing, developing, and protecting retailer brands. The application provides solutions for product development, compliance, quality, and traceability. It is designed specifically for retail, food service, and manufacturing businesses to develop and protect their brands, manage their suppliers, and ensure full end-to-end product lifecycle management.
Oracle Retail Brand Compliance Management Cloud Service is composed of the following modules:
Library - enables the issue, receipt, and acceptance of policies, guidelines, and key working documents.
Product - supports the development of products and production specifications.
Project - supports the development of project briefs, plans, and workflow management.
Supplier - enables the identification, selection, and approval of suppliers.
Reports - reporting tool for reporting across the system, using standard templates and custom reports.
Oracle Retail Brand Compliance Management Cloud Service is hosted in the Oracle Retail Cloud with the security features inherent to Oracle technology and a robust data center classification, providing significant uptime. The Oracle Cloud team is responsible for installing, monitoring, patching, and upgrading retail software.
Included in the service is continuous technical support, access to software feature enhancements, hardware upgrades, and disaster recovery. The Cloud Service model helps to free customer IT resources from the need to perform these tasks, giving retailers greater business agility to respond to changing technologies and to perform more value-added tasks focused on business processes and innovation.
Oracle Retail Software Cloud Service is acquired exclusively through a subscription service (SaaS) model. This shifts funding from a capital investment in software to an operational expense. Subscription-based pricing for retail applications offers flexibility and cost effectiveness.
The following technology is supported:

The following tables list issues fixed in this release:
Table 1 Product Fixed Issues
| Defect Number | Description |
|---|---|
|
29875591, 30568758, 30633216 |
Issues with Front of Pack Nutrition Scoring A fix is made to rectify an issue in the Front of Pack Nutrition Scoring Rules glossary, in the Product Global Glossaries admin area. The issue resulted in rows of the Score Bandings table being hidden. The fix addresses a related issue where the front of pack nutrition score color coding was not present in the product specification's Nutrition section. |
|
30456410 |
Temporary specifications list view does not save site details The issue occurred where the site information was not saved when creating temporary specifications of type Processed/Manufactured. Null values were saved at the list view level such that when the data was downloaded, site information was not populated for the temporary specifications. A fix has been implemented to ensure the site information is populated for newly created temporary specifications of type Processed/Manufacture. |
|
30558455, 30600517, 30679387 |
Nutrition fields overwritten with default values A fix is made to rectify an issue in the product specification's Nutrition section, where fields were being overridden with default values from the selected nutrition panel. The issue is related to the Default As Prepared Text and Default As Packaged Text fields. It occurred if the nutrition declaration had not been recalculated prior to saving the specification. This fix also addresses issues with the copying of the Nutrition section or applying a new version of a nutrition panel to an existing specification. The fix ensures previous changes made by the user remain on the specification unless those changes are no longer valid for the nutrition panel. The behavior when creating a new version of an active specification, or when a new version of a nutrition panel is applied to a specification, is as follows:
When a different nutrition panel is applied to a specification, any changes are replaced with values from the nutrition panel, or are cleared, as appropriate. |
|
30588885 |
Test report is not accepted when a supplier action is required This issue occurred due to there being no Product Technologist associated with the product record and, in the case of master product records, there was a missing link. When accepting a test report, which requires supplier action, a Product Technologist must be associated against the product record to allow for an email to be sent. A fix has been implemented and addresses the following:
|
|
30604281 |
When retailer updates the Produce Product Surveillance Tests to Awaiting Supplier Action, the email to the supplier fails The issue occurred due to the Product Technologist being against the produce specification record rather than the produce product record. The process for generating the email now takes the Product Technologist information from the produce specification for produce product records. |
Table 2 Applications Program Interfaces (APIs) Fixed Issue
| Defect Number | Description |
|---|---|
|
30548409 |
API server error when filtering with non-unique site codes A server error was generated when using the specification/advanced ProductSpecification REST API endpoint with a filter for a non-unique site code. The process now successfully processes the following:

Table 3 Global Network Bus Fixed Issue
| Defect Number | Description |
|---|---|
|
30561894 |
Global portal not responding when syncing a large specification by using the GNB application The issue occurred where system timeouts were exceeded due to the size of the specification being synced with the Global portal. To resolve this, two new system properties have been introduced to allow the http client policy to be configured appropriately. The new properties are oracle.retail.networkbus.receiveTimeout and oracle.retail.networkbus.connectTimeout. |
