Change in Default Value of Profile Option for Redwood Extended Lookup Codes

Effective Update 26B, the Redwood Extended Lookup Codes page will be enabled by default. 

The classic Extended Lookup Codes page will no longer be available by default. However, you can still access the page by manually setting the relevant profile option to No.

Here's how you can navigate to the Redwood Document Type Security Profiles page: My Client Groups > Workforce Structures > Extended Lookup Codes

Here's why you should continue with the Redwood page:

• Modern and Intuitive Experience: Redwood pages offer a streamlined, user-friendly interface.

• Improved Efficiency and Performance: Built with the Redwood toolset, the new pages reduce the number of clicks and enhance overall performance.

• Consistent Application Flow: Benefit from a cohesive user experience across the application.

• Automatic Enablement: The site-level profile option ORA_HRC_EXTENDED_LOOKUP_CODES_REDWOOD_ENABLED will be set to Yes by default.

• End of Support: The classic Extended Lookup Codes page will no longer be supported for any bug fixes, nor will they be enhanced.
