Oracle University E-Business Suite Technology Course Catalog
1. R12 Oracle Applications System Administrator Fundamentals
In this course students learn concepts and functions that are critical
to the System Administrator role in implementing and managing the Oracle
E-Business Suite. Topics covered include configuring security and user
management, configuring flexfields, managing concurrent processing, and
setting up other essential features such as profile options and
printing. In addition, configuration and maintenance of an Oracle
E-Business Suite through Oracle Applications Manager is discussed.
Students also learn the fundamentals of Oracle Workflow including its
setup. The System Administrator Fundamentals course provides the
foundation needed to effectively control security and ensure smooth
operations for an E-Business Suite installation. Demonstrations and
hands-on practice reinforce the fundamental concepts of configuring an
Oracle E-Business Suite, as well as handling day-to-day system
administrator tasks.
2. R12.x Install/Patch/Maintain Oracle E-Business Suite
This course will be applicable for customers who have implemented
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 or Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1. This
course explains how to go about installing and maintaining an Oracle
E-Business Suite Release 12.x system. Both Standard and Express
installation types are covered in detail. Maintenance topics include a
detailed examination of the standard tools and utilities, and an
in-depth look at patching an Oracle E-Business Suite system. After this
course, students will be able to make informed decisions about how to
install an Oracle E-Business Suite system that meets their specific
requirements, and how to maintain the system afterwards. The extensive
hands-on practices include performing an installation on a Linux system,
navigating the file system to locate key files, running the standard
maintenance tools and utilities, applying patches, and carrying out
cloning operations.
3. R12.x Extend Oracle Applications: Building OA Framework Applications
This class is a hands-on lab-intensive course that will keep the
student busy and active for the duration of the course. While the course
covers the fundamentals that support OA Framework-based applications,
the course is really an exercise in J2EE programming. Over the duration
of the course, the student will create an OA Framework-based application
that selects, inserts, updates, and deletes data from a R12 Oracle
Applications instance.
4. R12.x Extend Oracle Applications: Customizing OA Framework Applications
This course has been significantly changed from the prior version to
include additional deployments. The course doesn't teach the specifics
of configuration of each product. That is left to the product-specific
courses. What the course does cover is the general methods of building,
personalizing, and extending OA Framework-based pages within the
E-Business Suite. Additionally, the course covers the methods to deploy
those types of customizations. The course doesn't include discussion of
the Oracle Forms-based pages within the E-Business Suite.
5. R12.x Extend Oracle Applications: OA Framework Personalizations
Personalization is the ability within an E-Business Suite instance to
make changes to the look and behavior of OA Framework-based pages
without programming. And, personalizations are likely to survive patches
and upgrades, increasing their utility. This course will systematically
walk you through the myriad of personalization options, starting with
simple examples and increasing in complexity from there.
6. E-Business Suite: BI Publisher 5.6.3 for Developers
Starting with the basic concepts, architecture, and underlying
standards of Oracle XML Publisher, this course will lead a student
through a progress of exercises building their expertise. By the end of
the course, the student should be able to create Oracle XML Publisher
RTF templates and data templates. They should also be able to deploy and
maintain a BI Publisher report in an E-Business Suite instance.
Students will also be introduced to Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise.
7. R12.x Implement Oracle Workflow
This course provides an overview of the architecture and features of
Oracle Workflow and the benefits of using Oracle Workflow in an
e-business environment. You can learn how to design workflow processes
to automate and streamline business processes, and how to define event
subscriptions to perform processing triggered by business events.
Students also learn how to respond to workflow notifications, how to
administer and monitor workflow processes, and what setup steps are
required for Oracle Workflow. Demonstrations and hands-on practice
reinforce the fundamental concepts.
8. R12.x Oracle E-Business Suite Essentials for Implementers
Oracle R12.1 E-Business Essentials for Implementers is a course that
provides a functional foundation for any E-Business Suite Fundamentals
course.
