Process New System Control Values (NSCV)

Purpose:Use the Process New System Control Values option to create new system control values in each company in your environment, and define the default settings for each.

Prompting to process new system control values: When a new update that includes one or more new system control values is applied to your environment, a window prompts you to use this option. The prompt occurs for the first user to log in after the update was applied, and is no longer displayed once a user has worked through the new system control values for all companies.

You can also use this option on demand to process new system control values by selecting Process New System Control Values or entering NSCV in the Fast path field.

Note:

Oracle recommends that you process new system control values when they are added through an update, to prevent inconsistent results if a new system control value has not been created for a company.

How to process new system control values: When you select this option, the Change System Control Value screen opens for each new system control value in each existing company in your environment. Each time the screen opens, the user can select the setting for the new system control value, or exit to set the system control value to its default value.

When you select this option, an error message indicates if there are no new system control values.
