From 25.1 to 25.9: What's New and What’s Deprecated - A Clear Update for Version Changes


Currently Deprecated Functionality

Request for Bid Business Process – Public Bidding Only
• Originally Deprecated: 23.5
• Planned Removal: 26.4
• Customers using the RFB type of BP are not using the Public Bidding option, as it would send invitations to all Vendors. This functionality is therefore deprecated

AutoVue
• Originally Deprecated: 24.10
• Removal Date: Not yet announced
• AutoVue is still supported and can continue to be used while deprecated. Applies to older Unifier licenses.

All SOAP Services
• Originally Deprecated: 23.10
• Removal Dates:
• On-Premises: 25.12
• Cloud: 26.10
• Oracle initially planned to remove SOAP in 25.10 but extended support based on customer feedback:From 25.10, new cloud customers will be blocked from using SOAP.
• Existing cloud customers can continue using SOAP until 26.10.
• On-premises customers will lose SOAP support starting 25.12.
• Customers should migrate to REST services.

Schedule Manager
• Originally Deprecated: 23.5
• Transition Timeline:
• 25.10: No new Schedule Sheets can be created. Existing functionality remains for current sheets and where sheets are used as data sources (e.g., Cash Flow, Cost Sheet).
• Schedule Manager & Resource Manager removed from uDesigner but still available in Shells/Templates.
• "New" and "Copy" buttons removed from Schedule Manager logs.
• New shells created via templates will not contain Schedule Sheets, even if they exist in the template.
• 26.10: All Schedule Sheets become read-only.
• Functionality that updates Schedule Sheets will be removed (including API-triggered updates, Scope Manager updates, etc.).
• Oracle recommends moving to the Activity Sheet.

Programs
• Originally Deprecated: 23.5
• Removal Timeline:
• Initially planned removal in 25.10.
• Updated in 25.8 to remove in 26.4.
• Reporting within Programs was kept to give customers more time to move reports to Shells. All Program functionality – including reporting – is now deprecated.

Manually trigger the auto-creation of a business process record from within the mobile app. This functionality already existed in the web app; it is now available in the mobile app as well. If the user has permission to create and update records, the system creates a record in the destination business process, and the newly created record appears with all required data fields populated correctly.
In the source business process record, the BP Creator data element can display a hyperlink to the newly created record. This feature is available for both Android and iOS platforms.

Visualization

Data Visualization in Unifier
Visualizations provide a dynamic way to view critical information and key insights from data sources derived from business processes and data views.
Setting up visualizations is a multi-step process:
• Data sources: Create and manage Data Sources using Line Item Business Processes or Data Views.
• Build a content library using a variety of visualization types: Bar chart, line & area charts, pie chart, bubble chart, KPI card, pivot grid, and table.
• Configure visualizations in shells or shell templates using different layout options to organize content effectively.
• Optionally assign a location for viewing visualizations from different locations in User mode.
• Provide access to shell users and groups based on project needs.
This feature enables project teams to analyze data visually and make informed decisions using customizable, data-driven insights.
