Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1.9.0 is available !!!

 

 

Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1.9.0 was GA on May 19th and you can get the download, documentation, certification matrix and release notes here at the BI Publisher home page in OTN. Here is a quick snapshot of new features in this release. The download is also available at Oracle Software Delivery Cloud site. The documentation page has also been given a fresh new structure.

Well, the Word Addon is still not updated, which means it still does not support Microsoft Word 2013. But templates can be created online on the BIP server site itself.

TCC: Prevent Duplicates in Exports

 

 

Sometimes while running TCC exports with some complex filters, the same record might turn up more than once in in the final export file. The reason for this is that Taleo has a fixed datamodel, the relationships between various entities is pre-configured and cannot be overriden. So and M:M relationship cannot be converted to 1:M. Due to this, some records might be exported multiple ones.

Turns out, there is an easy way to fix this in the export process itself In the General tab of the Export file setup ,click on Advanced.

On the popup window, check the "Prevent Duplicates" option. This will ensure that records get exported only once in an export file.
