Whether you are new to Oracle Hyperion EPM or an experienced administrator, this blog will provide valuable insights to help you keep your system running smoothly and securely. Staying up to date with the latest patches is crucial for maintaining the security, performance, and functionality of your Oracle On-Premises EPM environment. In this post, we will explore the latest updates to Oracle On-Premises EPM version 11.2.24 and the defects that have been fixed.
| Component | Version |
| Java | Java 8 Update 471 |
| Essbase | 21.7.3 (no changes to Essbase for .24, this is the same version released with Hyperion version 11.2.23.0) |
| WebLogic | Patch Set Update 12.2.1.4.250910 |
| Application Development Framework (ADF) | Bundle Patch 12.2.1.4.250822 |
| Note: Important UI Changes in Recent ADF Patch Update To enhance accessibility in EPM applications in alignment with the latest Oracle Accessibility Guidelines (OAG), we recommend applying ADF patch 37836334. This update increases row heights and spacing across various EPM applications, including HFM, FDMEE, Planning, and Reports, to improve usability for users with accessibility needs. While these changes align with accessibility standards, they may result in fewer visible rows per page and increased scrolling. |
