RIB Error Hospital Schema Enhancements
In previous releases, the Error Hospital topology for RIB applications was the single error hospital schema for a RIB component on RICS. Recently, the topology has changed to multiple error hospital schemas per RIB domain. Every RIB application points to a unique error hospital schema.
FileBased Integration
Earlier integration between the Retail Merchandising Foundation Cloud Service (RMFCS) and RPAS uses BDI File Creator flows and jobs to extract data from RMFCS, create files, and ftps to RPAS. The hybrid integration between RMFCS on the Next Generation SaaS platform and RPAS on GBUCS uses BDI File Creator flows and jobs to extract data from RMFCS, create files and stores the files in object storage.
