Subject: FINAH enhancements - UAT available - due December 2
Hello FINAH Developers - We are excited to release new enhancements for you to test, including some field and folder name changes. Given that next week is Thanksgiving week the Production release will occur on December 2. If you find an issue, please email busintel@ucsd.edu right away with the subject line “FINAH UAT due December 2” so we can address it prior to December 2.
Customer Service Reminder:
Data in UAT is not ready to be shared with end customers, is not considered completely validated and can change suddenly. For optimal customer satisfaction, do not connect your production solutions to packages / data sources that are in UAT. If you choose to share UAT items with end customer, be explicit that the data and report is in UAT and can change suddenly or be broken by UAT changes.
How to test the new enhancements:
- Cognos: Use the packages in Cognos DEV > Financial Activity Hub > FINAH Data Sources – UAT to build your report and select Hana QA. Do not select Hana Prod as the report will fail. Using Hana QA will allow you to see the below enhancements with Oracle Production data.
- Tableau: Sign into Tableau QA on your Tableau desktop tool and open your report. Add a new data source with the same name and -QA at the end of the title. Using this data source will allow you to see the below enhancements with Oracle Production data.
- Hana QA: FINAH data in Hana QA is production Oracle data loaded daily, just like in Hana PROD.
If you find an issue, please include in your email to busintel@ucsd.edu the following:
- What browser are you using?
- What environment are you using? Cognos DEV, QA or PROD? Tableau QA or Prod?
- What data source / package are you using?
- What results were you expecting?
Items marked with an asterisk (*) are report breaking enhancements if you have these fields in your report.
If you cannot view the FINAHCORE links, please request access to Jira here: https://ucsdservicedesk.service-now.com/its?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id=9af5d148db514450008c9837db96190b
