Form Personalization
Most of the customers wish to modify the way the forms look and behave. They want to change the labels on the form fields, hide fields, hide buttons, amend custom logic.
With the Oracle E-Business Suite release 11.5.10, Oracle has introduced a mechanism which revolutionizes the way the forms can be customized to fulfill the customer needs. For many years, Oracle Applications has provided a custom library using which the look and behavior of the standard forms can be altered, but the custom library modifications require extensive work on SQL and PL/SQL. In the release 11.5.10, Oracle has provided a simple and easy feature to implement the customer specific requirements without modifying the underlying forms code or
CUSTOM library. Although CUSTOM library still can be used for forms customization to
implement the complex business logic, the personalization feature provided in the latest release is easy, faster and requires minimum development effort
The personalization form is invoked by Menu Navigation as below
Help --> Diagnostics --> Custom Code --> Personalize
By default, this menu option is enabled when any of the standard forms are opened, but at other times this menu option is disabled. The personalization form cannot be opened when the user is on the responsibility navigator. This means the specific form should be opened first, then invoke the “Personalization form” using the above navigation. Then define the personalization rules and actions on the personalization form, validate and apply them which automatically add the custom rules to the underlying specific form. For example, if the specific form is “Sales Order”; Open the “Sales Order” form first, and then invoke the “Personalization Form” using the menu option
By default the “Personalize” menu is visible to all the users; this can be controlled with help of profile options. By setting up the below profile options, the access to the Personalize menu can be limited for the authorized users. This will prevent unauthorized users from changing the look and behavior of the forms.
The profile options are…
1) Utilities: Diagnostics = Yes/No
2) Hide Diagnostics = Yes/No

Pricing made simple with Oracle Pricing
Today's cutthroat competition calls for flexible-pricing structure so that you could typically price the same product at a different price for every customer based on certain strategic scenarios.
Oracle Pricing engine determines the selling prices for products and services. It provides answers to the following questions:
1) Who qualifies for prices and benefits?
2) What is the item or service, which is being priced or modified?
3) How do we adjust the order price or the order line price?
How it works?
Oracle Advanced Pricing prices any transaction by first identifying a list price which contains the list price. The pricing engine (Qualifiers) then determines whether the price found on the price list have to be adjusted or not. Modifiers control the amount of these adjustments, and can modify a price by either giving a discount or adding a surcharge. Once the pricing engine has selected one or more modifiers that adjust the price, it computes the final selling price.
"Price List" contains price for items and/ or services. You could have multiple price list for the same items/service. For example: Standard Price List, Summer Promotion Price List, Festival price list
"Qualifiers" determine who is eligible for a price or modifier list. For example: Order Type, Customer Class, Customer Site and Customer Name
"Pricing Attribute" determines what is being priced or modified on a price or modifier list. For example: Item Category, Product Brand, Location, Distance, Age and Volume
"Modifiers" determines how the eligible item/service is priced. For example, Discounts, Surcharges, Coupon Issue, Item Upgrade, Terms Substitution, Freight Charge, Promotional Goods
With all the above inputs, Pricing Engine calculates the final Price which is equal to the original price on the price list minus any eligible discounts, plus any other applicable surcharges or promotions
Oracle Pricing is flexible to occupy various combinations to suit the business needs.
For example:
- Price List A is for Product X and applicable for Customer ABC.
- Price List B is for All Products and applicable for All Customer.
- Price List C is for all products belonging to Item Category A and B and applicable for All Customers

Oracle Order Management - Get started !
Order Management suite helps streamline and automate the entire sales order management process, from order promising and order capture to transportation and shipment. Oracle Order Management application is core of the Oracle Order fulfillment solution, and integrates seamlessly with almost all key modules such as Inventory, Advanced Pricing, Configurator, Transportation Management, Warehouse Management, Oracle Mobile Supply Chain, Advanced Planning, Accounts Receivables & CRM modules.
Using the Oracle Order Management (OM) Suite, you can enter sales orders, calculate the price of items on order lines, reserve & pick items from Inventory, ship items and send information to an accounts receivable so that invoices are created.
As we go ahead, we would discuss the key areas in Order Management
Order Management - System Parameters
System Parameters for Order Management are set at the Operating Unit level. The setup screen is available under Order Management Super User responsibility (Navigate: Setup > Parameters)
You can set the value for "Item Validation Organization" (Inventory Organizations) to define which Inventory Organization you can use to transact items in a given Operating Unit.
An Item Master Organization is used for item master data maintenance and validation. This master organization serves as a data repository storing items and item attributes, master level categories and category sets, master level cross references, and numerous data defaults.
In Order Management, the Item Validation Organization parameter indicates the Oracle Manufacturing organization against which items are validated. You must also define all transact able items in this organization.
