The Spring FINDINI 4.0.19 Release will be live on April 26. More information regarding this release can be found:
https://oracle.fss.finance.harvard.edu/oracle-ebs-findini-4019-release-notes
Additional Tips:
The FINDINI 4.0.19 release will include a Java JRE update to 1.8.0_281. For Mac desktop users only, when logging in for the first time after
April 26, those users will be required to download this updated Java JRE. This is needed for Mac users who rely on the Safari 11 browser using
Java JRE plug-in to open Oracle Forms. Please note, that Safari 12 and higher used on the Mac, no longer supports Java JRE plug-in, thus Oracle
Forms will not open using this browser. Safari browsers on the Mac are currently incompatible with Java Web Start Technologies. Firefox version
60.x and greater will now allow Oracle Forms on a Mac to open using Java Web Start Technology as long as the base level of JRE 1.8.0_201 is
installed. If users receive a popup message that a more recent version greater than 1.8.0_281 is available, they should NOT act upon the request.
Windows PC desktop users will no longer have to install Java JRE updates for Oracle Financials due to the Java Web Start technology. Oracle
Forms will no longer prompt Windows PC users to update their Java JRE. All universal browsers, including Safari, will successfully open Oracle
Forms on a windows PC using the Java Web Start technology. At a minimum, they must have JAVA JRE 1.8.0_141 which was pushed to them
several FINDINI releases ago. If needed for other applications, there is no harm for those users to update to JAVA JRE 1.8.0_281 after 4/26.
