Support for Multibyte Characters

Beginning with Oracle Argus Safety 5.1, the database was converted to accommodate multibyte characters. The Oracle Argus Safety Japan structure was merged into Oracle Argus Safety 5.1, which included Oracle Argus Safety field conversion from VARCHAR to CLOB data type.

To ensure compatibility Oracle Argus Safety, Oracle Argus Insight 5.1 and later supports the following field changes:

• Schema creation and validation—Data type changed from VARCHAR to CLOB
• Initial ETL and Incremental ETL—Transformation logic changed
• Database upgrade—Data type changed from VARCHAR to CLOB
• Power Queries—QBEs, filters, and advanced conditions validated and modified
