Common
Common references Applications Core objects that are centrally defined and shared across
Applications.

Common Applications Configuration

BI Cloud Adapter Extracts from BI View Objects with

Security Predicates Results in a Partial Data Extract
Some BI View Objects (BIVOs) in Oracle Applications Cloud have security predicates in the
BIVO definition. BICC extracts from such BIVOs result in a partial data extract. In some cases,
the BI Server does not apply the necessary data security access required by the Cloud
Connector user.
Oracle Reference: 28141536

Expanding Search Region on Scheduled Processes Page

Times Out Intermittently
Expanding the search region on the Scheduled Processes page times out intermittently.
Resolution
Try expanding the search region again.
Oracle Reference: 26273542, 26765308

Images and PDFs Not Rendering in Applications Help and

Getting Started Work Area
In the Applications Help site, diagrams and screenshots are not displayed in the body of help
files. Instead, the image file's alternative text is displayed. PDF type help files do not display.
Likewise, images and PDFs are not rendering on pages in the Getting Started work area.
Oracle Reference: 26235644, 26871809

8 Oracle HCM Cloud Release 13 (update 18C)

Oracle HCM Cloud Functional Known Issues

SOAP WSDL URLs Are Incorrect in Developer Connect Until

Synchronized
The domain name in SOAP WSDL URLs changed in Release 13, when many domains were
consolidated. In Developer Connect, the old domain name (for example, prcPonNegotiations)
appears in the WSDL URL until you manually synchronize the service details.
Resolution
You must synchronize the service details in Developer Connect to refresh the domain name in
the WSDL, if you have not done so since Release 13 was introduced. Synchronizing the service
details also updates the service name if the name has changed (for example, if the service has
been versioned). To synchronize the service details:
1. In the Navigator, click Developer Connect.
2. On the Web Services page, click Synchronize. All of the SOAP services deployed to your
cloud instance are refreshed.
After you synchronize your services, you should see a change in the domain name of the
WSDL URL - for example, the prcPonNegotiations domain changes to fscmService.
Oracle Reference: No Bug Number.

Manage Configuration Set Migration Target Security Policy

Task Does Not Work
Do not use the Manage Configuration Set Migration Target Security Policy task available in
the Setup and Maintenance work area because the associated feature is not available.
Oracle Reference: 28229272

Predefined Dashboards Disappear After Upgrade to 18C

The predefined dashboard pages D1-D10 disappear after upgrade to 18C, if they weren't
recreated using the Page Integration tool.
Resolution
Check if these pages were used. If they were used, follow the instructions in the Recreate
Legacy Dashboards Using the Page Integration Tool document (Doc ID 2469563.1) on My
Oracle Support.
Oracle Reference: 19211236

Application Error Displayed When Only One Cloud Storage

Connection Entry Exists in the Configure External Storage
Option After Upgrade
The Manage Cloud Storage UI in BICC displays an error when there is only one Cloud Storage
entry set up in the application.
Resolution
Create a duplicate entry of the Storage Connection or add another entry in the Storage
Connection tab. Select the new entry and then navigate back to the first entry.
Oracle Reference: 28925524

Known Issues in Oracle Fusion Human Capital

Management

Oracle Fusion Compensation

Access to Personally Identifiable Information Business

Objects was Removed from Compensation Transaction
Analysis Duty
Access to PII (Personally Identifiable Information) business objects was removed from the
Compensation Transaction Analysis duty with this release.
Resolution
If access to these objects is needed, use the Workforce Confidential Reporting Data duty,
which is given to an HR Analyst.
Oracle Reference: 26404603, 28153228

10 Oracle HCM Cloud Release 13 (update 18C)

Oracle HCM Cloud Functional Known Issues

The Total Compensation PDF is Not Generating

Information for the Second Work Relationship
The reason for this is that the access to PII (Personally Identifiable Information) business
objects was removed from the Compensation Transaction Analysis duty with the 18C release.
This impacts employees who had multiple work relationships during a statement period and:
• had multiple employer-specific statements for the statement period
• printable statements are configured to generate statements in the worker's local
currency
• for each work relationship, the employee has a different local currency.
Resolution
This will be fixed in update 19A. After receiving the fix, customers must regenerate the
statements of the affected employees.
Oracle Reference: 28225406

HCM Data Loader

Existing Payroll Interface Inbound Record and Electronic

Income Withholding Orders integrations may fail on
upgrade
Existing Integrations using the Payroll Interface Inbound Record
(PayrollInterfaceInboundRecord.dat) object or Electronic Income Withholding Orders
(ElectronicIncomeWithholdingOrders.dat) object may fail on upgrade with this error:
The attribute StartDate contains an invalid date. The date must be in the format
YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS. (HRC-1035271).
Resolution
Update the format of the StartDate attribute on child records to match that on the parent
record.
The data type of this attribute has been corrected. Previously a string, the StartDate is now a
time stamp to match the parent record.
Oracle Reference: 28813523

HCM Cloud REST API

Future-dated entry in HCM Atom feed is not available

immediately
When a future-dated action is performed, the entry does not appear in the HCM Atom feed until
the action becomes effective.
Resolution
Starting in R13 (update 18C), future-dated Atom entries appear in their respective Atom
feeds after the future-dated actions become effective. This is the new default behavior. If you
want to consume future-dated events immediately then you need to adapt your Atom polling
implementation accordingly.
For instructions, see the document Controlled Availability (CA): Future-dated Atom Entries
(Doc ID 2447439.1) on My Oracle Support..
