Why is the modified date changing on the seeded OTBI reports?

Question

Hi,

I have noticed that modified dates on the seeded OTBI reports are changing. I do know that whenever there is a patch applied to the instance the modified dates may change, but apart from patch dates I am seeing different dates as modified dates on the OTBI seeded reports.

I am pretty sure no one is going in and updating the seeded reports from our side.

Does anyone have any idea about it?

This is a audit question and we do not have a definite answer on why those reports were modified on those certain dates

Thanks

Shravani

Hi Shravani,

What I have observed is that not all the dates point to refresh/upgrade dates. Because sometimes it carries the date from the environment where the report was last saved.

As normal user can't make any changes in seeded OTBI reports, so it is Oracle only.

Thanks.
