Good day - can I get some feedback regarding your creation of custom reports in OTM and specifically if you tend to use more GID-specific parameters or more XID-specific parameters when creating these reports?
The reason I ask is because as of v5.5.5.2, Oracle has decided to use only XID-related data in the way these reports search for requested data. For us, this poses a serious issue. One instance we have has quite a few custom reports created based on searches for GID. Another instance we have relies heavily on using GID searches so that a report can be run on the parent domain level and search through many sub-domains for the requested data. These are just 2 examples of the issues this change will cause for us.
Until now, Oracle claims that this was changed in v5.5.5.2 to resolve BUG # 7537250 and that Development at Oracle did this intentionally. Oracle Support claims that our issues are an isolated case and they have not seen this before. Perhaps they have not heard of this issue before because this was only changed in the most recent update and perhaps not many customers have upgraded to this latest version yet.
Your feedback is appreciated.
Thanks.
