Your CSS & New Features

Oracle Taleo Learn Cloud platform and general technology updates can affect complex or custom LearnCenter pages. If you are using a custom CSS file, it is important to verify your site CSS with each product update. Based on changes in the platform, there is a chance that you could see alignment or positioning issues after an update due to the custom CSS used on your site. Often any updates that your CSS requires are minor and easy to make. Contact Customer Support through My Oracle Support for any additional information.

For Licensing Information, please refer to My Oracle Support DOC ID 1461788.1. For the latest information on browser support, please refer to the Oracle Taleo Learn Cloud System Requirements document; My Oracle Support DOC ID 1461788.1.

Feature Summary

Column Definitions:

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
(Feature 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.

Customer Must Take Action before Use by End Users
(Feature 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.

Supervisor Accounts Enhancements

Change to Supervisor Accounts

A change has been made to how Supervisors see their mapped Users. Previously, Supervisors were able to see all of their mapped Users, including those with membership statuses of Denied Access, Removed, or Pending Approval. Now, Supervisors only see mapped Users who have a status of Approved and Disabled Access. Users with Denied Access, Removed, or Pending Approval Statuses remain mapped to Supervisors, but they are hidden from Supervisor view until they are changed to Approved.

Steps to Enable

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

Key Resources

Refer to the online help topics for Supervisor Accounts for complete information about working with Supervisors.

Refer to the online help topic called Membership Statuses for full details on membership statuses.

Courses Enhancements

Change to Copy Existing Course Functionality

Beginning with this 19B, you can only use the Copy Existing Course functionality to copy Courses created with the WYSIWYG Editor.

Courses Selector for Copy Existing Course

If you need to copy SCORM, AICC, or Media Courses, you have two options:

  • You can copy content on your PC, upload it under a new SFTP directory, and bring in the copied content.
  • You can reimport the content, and give it a different name.

Steps to Enable

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

Role Information

Bulk Import Enhancements

New Bulk Import Functionality

There is new Bulk Import functionality that enables you to import Users into Dynamic Groups. In previous releases, the ability to bulk import Users to Groups was only available for the classic groups functionality.

By default, you can import Users into 10 different Dynamic Groups.

NOTE: If you require more or fewer groups, this default number is configurable by opening a Service Request (SR) with Oracle Learn Support.

On the Control Panel:

  1. Click the expand icon on the Users menu.
  2. Click Bulk Import Users.
  3. Select a file type from the Import type drop-down list.
  4. Enter or retrieve the data based on the Import Type you selected.
  5. Click Continue with Import.

Choose Groups Is Available for Dynamic Groups

  1. Click Choose Groups to open the Find Groups window.
  2. Search for and select the Groups you want.
  3. Click Return Selected. The Groups you selected are applied to the Users. If you selected more than 10, an error message displays.

Message Displays If You Select More than Ten Dynamic Groups

Imported Users are placed in the selected Dynamic Groups with a membership type of Static. All the mapped items (such as Learning Plans, Job Profiles, Skills) are added to the User.

Steps to Enable

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

Tips And Considerations

Group owners have the ability to restrict access to their groups by selecting the existing Only allow Owners to edit the group check box in the Dynamic Group setup. Doing so prevents other Admins from bulk importing users to a Group owner’s groups.

Key Resources

Refer to the online help topic called Bulk Importing Users for complete details on how to use Bulk Import.

Refer to the online help topic called Adding a Dynamic Group for complete details on adding and editor Dynamic Groups.

Content Manager Enhancements

Content Manager - Increase Content DPI

Beginning with this release, when you create documents using the Content Manager, the default DPI for images is 360.

NOTE: Documents imported prior to this release retain their original DPI settings. If you need to increase DPI for these documents, you must reimport them.

Users now have the ability to zoom in up to 200%, or zoom out up to 10% of the original size.

Steps to Enable

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

Tips And Considerations

The resolution default is configurable by opening a Service Request (SR) with Oracle Learn Support.
