This is a manual
which takes the users or beginners who are new to oracle apps through the basic
steps which they need to perform in order to understand the flow and the basic
configuration as present in Apps.
The manual as
name goes shows the configuration starting from scratch to end of setups.
As we know that
oracle is an ERP that is it’s an application which caters to the requirement of
an organization in real time situation and its used by various employees in the
organization on a daily basis.
So like any
other application if a particular employee or an user will use the application
he needs to be created an user and along with that he needs to have the rights
or the necessary privileges to work or perform his duties in the system.
So as a
requirement we need to create the user with which the tasks needs to be
performed. But even before that the application needs to have the rights which
the user needs in order to work and perform his duties.
In oracle apps
terminology the above mentioned requirement is accomplished by creation
of responsibilities which have the necessary functions and menus as
required.
So to start
in today's chapter we will take into consideration the
process of creation of user and creation of responsibility and then
assign the so created responsibility to the user so that he can start working
on his tasks.
So in order to
make the application ready the minimum requirements will be to have the below
given checklist ready.
Although everything will not be discussed in
this chapter but to have guided learning path we have listed the various tasks
which we would be taking into care in this section of oracle for beginners.
As part of the process flow starting from
scratch the below steps needs to be performed
- Step 1 :
Creation of responsibilities
- Step 2 :
Creation of user
- Step 3 : 4
Cs
- 3.1 : 1st C : Currency
- 3.2 : 2nd C : Calendar
- 3.3 : 3rd C : COA ( Accounting Flex field)
- 3.4 : 4th C : Defining SLA Method
- Step 4 :
Defining of ledger and attaching the 4C defined in step 3
- Step 5 :
Defining of location
- Step 6 :
Defining of organization
As we know that oracle application is designed to perform various
business activities on the basis of role assigned to the employees. So in every
organization each employee will be having separate role on the basis of which
access needs to be provided and as such the application needs to be designed
accordingly.
So the above functionality is achieved by creation of
responsibilities in oracle application based upon user requirement and they are
then assigned to the concerned users in oracle application. In order to create
responsibility we need to go to system administrator and the procedure of it is
being given below.
Each responsibility consists of menus and functions and the order
is as given below.
Responsibility: Set of Menus
Menus: Set of functions
A responsibility is assigned to a menu and a request group. A
request group is a set of requests or programmes which can be run from that
responsibility as part of his rights.
These can be assigned to responsibilities based on a document
called SOD matrix. SOD refers to set of duties.
The entire process has been explained in the document attached hereby in the link.
Thus in today’s chapter we have studied the following
things
- Oracle
as an ERP
- Creation
of responsibility
- Creation
of user
The steps mentioned in this chapter
are the basic steps post which other steps relating to the multi-org structure steps
will be discussed and demonstrated.
