Custom Message Banners on Retail Home Dashboard

Oracle Retail Home now enables administrators to create and display custom message banners on the dashboard, enabling timely communication of critical information such as downtimes, system changes, or business announcements. Administrators can create and manage banners through the Dashboard and Reports menu, specifying the content, message type and link. Banners are prominently displayed to all users upon login and may be dismissed for the current session, returning on subsequent logins until expired or removed.

Training Video Access Button in Dashboard Banner

Building on the Custom Message Banners on Retail Home Dashboard enhancement, Retail Home now features a dedicated button within the dashboard banner, providing immediate access to key training resources. New users can easily click How To Use Retail Home or Click Here For Training to watch a training video, enabling quick self-service learning without the need for one-on-one instruction. This enhancement streamlines onboarding for new store leaders, reduces manual training efforts, and enhances the user experience by making essential training materials highly visible and readily accessible.

Enhanced Metric Visualization with Font Colors

Retail Home now supports color-coded fonts for key metric displays, providing instant visual cues about performance status; for example: green for positive trends and red for negative trends. This enhancement allows business users to quickly identify critical metrics and take applicable action. To ensure accessibility for all users, visual indicators such as preceding caret icons have also been introduced, clarifying metric trends independently of color. Administrators and business personnel alike will benefit from improved clarity and faster decision making on the dashboard.
