Added

The UI technology stack has been updated from IceFaces to Oracle JET Framework for Rich UI components and REST service based application.

The User Interface has been redesigned in v11 to enhance the User’s experience. The screens have been redesigned with input from Oracle’s User Experience team and Customer usability enhancement requests. The application has been reorganized to streamline processes and improve flow and readability of information.

The unified search feature combines all the different entity search mechanisms into single search mechanism. Provides flexibility to navigate across all the screens from a central location. It provides ‘quick search’ capabilities for more frequently searched entity and attributes that the user typically searches as the default search criteria. User has the flexibility to go to advanced search by adding more search criteria to get more refined results.

This feature enhances the user ability to enter/create new entities into OIPA from a central location. The entities to be created will be listed in a drop-down as "Policy, Client, Customer, Case" etc., the user can set their order preference. The user can access this grouping functionality from any context that OIPA may present.

As part of the OIPA UI JET upgrade, the application layout is redesigned where the 'Entity' screens consists a 3-pane layout:

• The Navigation List pane
• Page / Form entry / Display pane
• Entity Summary pane, which is visible from all entity screens and can be collapsed.

The "Policy, Client, Customer, Suspense, Group / List Bill" screens support the entity summary. Also, the 'Unified' Search Results (Quick Search or Advanced) will display the summary information for the selected Entity.

This feature allows the user to configure session management in OIPA with a grace period. It introduces a popup message notifying users about session timeout, the user can elect to continue the session or will be logged out. The configurer will have the flexibility to set the grace time (time between display of popup till expiry of session) Session.warningtimeout in pas.properties.

This enhancement allows reconciliation of a bill in excess of the full amount. It enables the Bill Reconciliation business rule to add money when adjustment resulted in over reconciliation and flag over-reconciled records.

OIPA is enhanced with an ability to manage carriers that operate in multiple regions as a single company. Users of the system can be granted access to multiple regions (not necessarily all) through a single logon ID. It accommodates the variations of different regions that may share many characteristics such as business rules, product definitions, accounting records etc.

This enhancement allows a negative amount to be applied to handle over reconciliation of any bill such as a commission claw back scenario.

This enhancement provides the ability to shadow the rejected clients and policies that were created while processing the incoming interface (such as AsFile) when the system encounters validation errors. A new business rule ShadowClient is introduced which shadows the rejected clients.

ShadowClient

This enhancement identifies the leap years and non-leap years through anniversaries of a given date. It determines the correct changes to the fund's interest rate as time passes in valuation.
