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.
