Oracle SmartView - Removal of Support of Native Mode Option for Smart View Ad Hoc Behavior Application Setting

Removal of Support of Native Mode Option for Smart View Ad Hoc Behavior Application Setting

The Native mode option for the Smart View Ad Hoc Behavior application setting is no longer supported in Smart View. 

While customers can continue using Native mode, this mode is no longer supported for escalations and enhancements.

Standard is the ad hoc mode upon which all enhancements in Cloud EPM are being delivered.

Oracle stopped supporting Native mode at the end of year 2024. Customers on Native mode are advised to convert the Smart View Ad Hoc Behavior application setting for their environments to Standard mode and test their use cases.

Any gaps found should be logged as an enhancement to Standard mode. Enhancements should be logged on the Customer Connect EPM Platform Idea Lab as soon as possible for Oracle to review.

Perform the following steps to begin working with Standard mode:

1. In Application Settings, change Smart View Ad Hoc Behavior to Standard.
2. In Smart View, open worksheets created in Native mode and reconnect.
3. Refresh the sheets.

NOTES:

• The expectation for existing Native mode worksheets is that they will work “as is” when the setting is changed to Standard. New ad hoc sheets will only be created in Standard mode using Standard features.

• Smart Forms are not supported in Standard mode. There is no plan to support them in Standard mode.
