Feature Summary

Column Definitions:

Features Delivered Enabled

Report = New or modified, Oracle-delivered, ready to run reports.

UI or Process-Based: Small Scale = These UI or process-based features are typically comprised of minor field, validation, or program changes. Therefore, the potential impact to users is minimal.

UI or Process-Based: Larger Scale* = These UI or process-based features have more complex designs. Therefore, the potential impact to users is higher.

Features Delivered Disabled = Action is needed BEFORE these features can be used by END USERS. These features are delivered disabled and you choose if and when to enable them. For example, a) new or expanded BI subject areas need to first be incorporated into reports, b) Integration is required to utilize new web services, or c) features must be assigned to user roles before they can be accessed.

Ready for Use by End Users
(Features Delivered Enabled)

Reports plus Small Scale UI or Process-Based new features will have minimal user impact after an update. Therefore, customer acceptance testing should focus on the Larger Scale UI or Process-Based* new features.

Action is Needed BEFORE Use by End Users
(Features Delivered Disabled)

Not disruptive as action is required to make these features ready to use. As you selectively choose to leverage, you set your test and roll out timing.

Engagement Panel Refresh

We have improved the Chat Engagement Panel in the Agent Browser UI. The new features include a modern, updated style, a streamlined chat header, and a new service level warning so that agents can easily see when service levels are met and exceeded.

Here are the changes we made to help your agents.

  • Streamlined Chat Header: We removed many redundant details so that agents can see more of the transcript.
  • Modern Styling: New buttons and icons, and the addition of the Bubble format, makes the information within the transcript easier to read.
  • Service Level Warning: As configured service levels are met and exceeded, agents now see colorful bars within the header.

Steps to Enable

  • Streamlined Chat Header: This update is automatically available for all agents using chat within the Browser User Interface
  • Modern Styling: This update is automatically available for all agents using chat within the Browser User Interface
  • Service Level Warning: To uptake the new Service Level Warning feature, configure service level thresholds within the chat implementation. See Service Level Requirements for Chat.

The Bookmark feature in Analytics supports copying the URL to the report definition and to the specific filter values that the user has specified in their current view.

Dashboard Bookmark Options

Once the type of Bookmark is specified, the bookmark URL directly to the clipboard with no other actions needed from the user.

Copy Success Message

This feature helps users share a link that allows the user to see the data set that the user sharing the URL was using. This change is incorporating additional options for the type of Bookmark the user wants to share with the automatic saving of the URL to the customers clipboard

Steps to Enable

Tips And Considerations

  • Saved Bookmarks with the current filter values are retained up to 3 months from the last uses.
  • If the filters on the report definition, the report or dashboard will be run with the default filters from the definition.
  • If the service that stores the URL with the user's current filter values, the default definition will be returned to the user.

Inline Edit from Reports Within Workspaces

B2C Service has added a new feature to Agent Browser UI. Users can inline edit records from within Workspaces. This saves users from having to open records individually to update the details.

Enabling agents to update records in real time from reports within the workspace allows users to save time and steps to update records.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

Inline editing must be enable on the report that is used in the workspace.
