About Accessibility Features

The accessibility features in Oracle BI Enterprise Edition aim to make navigating and using the software easier for persons with disabilities and for the aging population. The accessibility features support the use of standards-based assistive-technology hardware and software (such as Freedom Scientific JAWS). The accessibility features are grouped into these general categories:

  • Features used by third-party assistive-technology products. These features center on providing a user interface that consists of standard HTML elements that can be easily interpreted by third-party assistive technology products.

  • Accessibility mode, as described in Changing to Accessibility Mode.

  • Keyboard shortcuts and tab shortcuts that make it easier to navigate content for users with limited or no ability to use a mouse.

  • Content design capabilities that make it possible for content creators to create content that supports users with accessibility needs. While Oracle BI Enterprise Edition provides accessibility mode that offers many features automatically, you as the designer must create content that meets the accessibility requirements of your user community.
