1 Introduction

This release introduces the new User Interface (UI) design for Supplier Evaluation. It is based on the Oracle JET technology and Redwood theme, as used by other Oracle Retail applications.

The full transition to the new UI will be in phases, or modules. The first module delivers the Workspace, which provides the home page, from where the user has access to the design and functionality of the new UI, and direct access to the areas of Supplier Evaluation modules that have yet to be converted. The second module delivers the Operation List Views, which replaces and removes the list views from the classic environment.

Note:

When enabling the Workspace, the application link in Retail Home must also be set to use the ORSE Workspace environment. This can be configured by the Retail Home Admin user, by accessing Settings > Application Administration > Application Navigation Setup, and setting the Application Link for the ORSE application.

Future modules will convert more of the application to the new UI, in some cases introducing new functionality, and new user experience for achieving existing functionality. The application will operate using concurrent user interfaces until the full transition is complete.

This user guide covers the following features of the Supplier Evaluation Workspace module:

  • Workspace - the home page and navigation controls.

  • Assignments - the user’s tasks and urgent items.

  • Announcements - news items and resources.

  • KPIs - charts and tables presented as tiles within a dashboard.

  • List Views - the functionality of the new list view style, and use of filters, searches, and other features.

  • Supplier Evaluation Dashboard - charts, graphs, and metrics presenting Supplier Evaluation data.

  • A Design Standard appendix describes the style and functionality of other new UI components.

  • A System List Views appendix describes the system-delivered list views.
