Administration privileges determine the users, roles, and organization information that delegated administrators can manage. The registration processes enable organizations to provide end-users with a method for requesting various levels of access to the system. Based on their eligibility these access requests can be granted approvals can also be managed before these grants are made.
Self-service requests and approvals enable end users to request initial access or additional access to the systems. Approvals for these requests can be managed systematically and tracked for audit purposes before the grant is made. Notifications can be generated to the requestor so that there is a seamless process to granting access.
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 introduces the Swan user interface , which has a browser look and feel. To gain access to use the E-Business Suite the system administrator has to create a username and a password, and assign specific responsibilities to access functions in specific products. Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 can support multiple languages and the user can select a language of choice during the login process.
The access to each product is defined by a responsibility also called a role. The following screenshot shows a personal home page with a list of responsibilities. The user clicks on a responsibility to access the available functions. Oracle provides default responsibilities that have access to all the functions and many enterprises may want to change this to manage SOX compliance issues.
In earlier R12 releases there used to be a three panel launch page. The responsibilities were listed on the left pane, the functions were displayed in the center pane, and favorites were listed in the right pane. This has changed in R You now have a two panel page and Favorites has been moved to a drop-down on the title bar. The other major change in The favorites list now contains a mix of standard forms, web pages, and web links.
If you look at the icons on the favorites list, they tell a story. The icons on the first five Favorites link are standard forms explained a little later, called GUI forms. The next Favorite is a web link to an external site—Metalink—Oracle support site. The last two are web pages. The following screenshot is a graphical user interface form also known as a GUI form, and referred to previously as a standard form. This user interface has been available and in use from release This form is used in most places in the all products and has shortcut keys as shown in the box on the right-hand side of the previous screenshot.
The list of these shortcuts is another document in itself and there are other ease of use icons on the top as well as the menu bar. This is well documented in a paper presented to the OAUG in The paper was presented by me at the conference and is available in the conference papers database. On the Oracle forms graphical user interface GUI form has shortcuts for navigation.
These shortcut keys only work in the GUI form. These commands are used in general in combination with the Ctrl key, and this may be different in different environments, so you need to check at your particular environment. In these forms you will see multiple ways in which data is presented—tabs that hold additional data sets for capture and display in the middle of the image, columns on the top of the form, and the scroll bar just above the tabs shows that there are more columns to the right.
Just above the columns on the left-hand corner you see a folder icon. This is an interesting functionality to allow users to manage how they see their columns laid out for ease of data entry. This is called Folder functionality and is useful to move, add, or remove the columns shown on the screen. You cannot add columns that are not inherently exposed by the applications framework. You can only choose columns from a predefined list.
The users can click on the Preferences link on the web form and manage default preferences and options for their use. This is only for the user and is not system wide. Here is a list of items that can be managed from the Preferences page:. The Navigator link is visible form web forms and is similar to a change responsibility icon on the standard form. Clicking on the Navigator link will show a drop-down of available responsibilities to a user.
You can go back to the home page by clicking on the Home link. A Help link is available from various web forms and is similar to the icon on the standard form. This will open a new window where help documentation is available about the form and fields on the form or page. This requires some additional configuration and should be done by the person who is installing and administering the E-Business Suite.
In this chapter, you were introduced to an overview of the E-Business Suite and a little about how it works and some fundamentals to what makes it flexible and usable at multiple enterprises. In the following chapters we will introduce you to business process flows, Procure to Pay, and Order to Cash, delving deeper into each of the products that are used within these processes and highlighting unique aspects related to usage, configuration, and transactional areas.
