In version 12.1, Oracle made some changes to the user interface. One of those changes was the merge of the "Time Entry -> Recent Timecards" screen with the "Timecard Search" screen.
The old version of the OTL menu appears below:
The old version of the screen for Recent Timecards (Navigation Time and Expenses -> Time Entry ) appears below. Note the sub tabs labeled Time Entry and another for Timecard Search.
In 12.1, we now get a slightly modified menu with "Time Entry" and "Timecard Search" replaced by "Recent Timecards":
Selecting Recent Timecards brings us to the new merged screen. Notice that the sub tabs for "Time Entry" and "Timecard Search" have been replaced by the "Recent Timecards" sub tab.
The merged screens are meant to provide for a cleaner user interface. Although you don't really save any time in navigation, it appears to be one of those small changes that slowly make for a more mature product.
