Quality Management

Quality Management

View Inspection Levels, Inspection Characteristics, Inspection Plans, and Inspections Without Edit Privilege

View inspection levels, inspection characteristics, inspection plans, and inspections without the ability to edit or delete data. You can add this view privilege to your own configured role or to an existing role.

Create Problem Reports and Corrective Actions Directly from Commercial Items

Use the Actions menu to create a problem report or corrective action directly from a commercial item. The new objects open in a dynamic tab and are linked to the specific revision of the item.

Product Lifecycle Management

Innovation Management

Leverage Advanced Attachment Management for Concepts and Requirements

Vastly improve attachment management for concepts, proposals, and requirement specifications. You can now search for attachments by type, check in and check out attachments, view attachment revisions, and view details of each attachment.

Product Development

Update Manufacturer Management

Use Application Composer to enrich your manufacturer definitions with additional attributes and capture critical business information.

Product Hub

Secure View Access Using Item Categories REST Resource

Secure the GET operation for Item Categories REST resource using the new functional privilege. You can build user interfaces to select categories using the Item Categories REST resource.

Purge Publication History Records Using Scheduled Process

Purge publication history records for a spoke system using the Product Hub Publication Job schedule process.

Import Start and End Dates in Timestamp Format for Item Relationships Using Import Maps

Import the start and end dates in timestamp format for related item and trading partner item relationships using import maps.

Enhance Integrations of Deleted Entities Using Configured Reports

Enhance integrations using data that's captured when an item and its related entities are deleted. You can create reports based on the captured deleted entity data and use them to orchestrate integrations with other systems.

Assign Items to Categories More Efficiently Using Improved Catalog Rules

Derive catalogs and categories dynamically from variables through rules when assigning items to categories.

Leverage Additional Item Batch Options in Smart Spreadsheets

Leverage the change order and new item request options for uploading data from the smart spreadsheet to an item batch.

Define Asset Capitalization and Undercompletion Tolerance for Usage in Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM

Use item operational attributes to support asset capitalization and undercompletion tolerance in Oracle Cloud SCM.

Product Development & Product Hub Common

Replace Item Structure Components: Using Import or REST APIs

Use the updated item import template or enhanced REST APIs to quickly replace a component in your item structure, copying over key data from the original component to the replacement component.

Ensure Users Pick Valid Structure Components and Affected Objects

Prevent users from adding duplicate components on an item structure, or adding commercial items as affected objects on engineering changes.

Improve Change Order Resiliency

Avail additional enhancements that improve change workflow resiliency. Reprocess failed rows in scheduled processes and prevent mismatches in change line effectivity dates across tables.

Relate Automatically Split Change Orders

Relate change orders that were automatically created when change lines included in a single item batch were split during import. Links to these change orders are automatically added in the Relationships tab.

Identify Opportunities to Optimize Item Class Setup

Maintain an optimized item class setup, track disabled attributes and inactive value sets using a diagnostic report.

Improve Item Autosuggest Search Performance

Improve item search using autosuggest that controls when the autosuggest starts searching after you've entered the search value. The autosuggest search delay is controlled through a profile option.

Product Lifecycle Management Common

Manage Tasks on Completed Changes

Create, assign, and complete tasks even when a change order is in completed status.

Manage Workflow Participants for Any Change Status Using Web Services

Use new SOAP APIs to get, add, or remove participants for any status in the workflow. You can now add reviewers to future statuses when the change is in Approval or Scheduled status.

Use Fill Actions on Affected Object Columns for All Change Types

Use the Fill Up, Fill Down, and Fill Selected actions to duplicate values in the Affected Objects tables on change requests, problem reports, and corrective actions. You could earlier do this only for change orders.

User Interface Improvements for Items and Changes

Use enhanced icons and new side tabs on item and change-related pages to quickly identify and access content. When you opt in to the feature named User Interface Improvements for Items and Changes, you can use the features described in this section.

Improve User Experience on Item Interface

On the item page, distinguish tabs that have content using blue icons instead of grey. In the item structure view, three new side tabs with blue dot icons help you access a component's substitutes, changes, and quality-related data without losing context.

Improve User Experience on Change Interface

On the change page, distinguish tabs that have content using blue icons instead of grey. In the redline structure view, new blue dot icons indicate components with attachments, AML, substitute components, pending changes, and quality issues. New side tabs for attachments, AML, extensible flexfields, pending changes, and quality issues help you access component data without losing the structure context.
