Update OAS users guide to be consistent on using the feature connection to Oracle application
We have recently discovered in the OAS user guide the paragraph which is below which has disturbed us a lot : our application with OAS which work successfully on Argus Safety Cloud data uses a connection to Oracle applications OAS to be able to retrieve data in OAS datasets via OAS analysis configured and stored in the OAS catalog. It allows us to make best use of the RPD including setting many required session variables in the OAS analysis advanced tab. However we recently came across the paragraph below from the OAS user guide which is quite confusing to us : OAS provides this great feature to make a connection to OAS classic and select analysis in the catalog but the paragrah below suggest not to do this and instead use a subject area connection which is more cumbersome. The idea is to straighten out this confusion and either support or do not support a connection to Oracle application OAS. If support to an Oracle application OAS is withdrawn we are in trouble.
*** extract from OAS user guide
You can create a dataset based on analyses from applications in Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Suite. For example, Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials with Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence.
Oracle Analytics doesn't automatically join tables created from analyses. You need to manually join these tables. See Understand Dataset Table Joins.
Don't create or use an Oracle Applications connection to connect to your local Oracle Analytics instance. Using a connection to your instance to create datasets from local subject areas or analyses results in data caching issues and errors in visualizations. Instead, use the Local Subject Area connection type to create a dataset from a analyses stored in your Oracle Analytics instance. See Create a Dataset from a Local Analysis. ****
