Overview of Setting Up
This section contains an overview of each task you need to complete to set up Oracle Work in Process.
Oracle Applications Implementation Wizard
If you are implementing more than one Oracle Applications product, you may want to use the Oracle Applications Implementation Wizard to coordinate your setup activities. The Implementation Wizard guides you through the setup steps for the applications you have installed, suggesting a logical sequence that satisfies cross-product implementation dependencies and reduces redundant setup steps. The Wizard also identifies steps that can be completed independently--by several teams working in parallel--to help you manage your implementation process most efficiently.
You can use the Implementation Wizard as a resource center to see a graphical overview of setup steps, read on-line help for a setup activity, and open the appropriate setup window. You can also document your implementation, for further reference and review, by using the Wizard to record comments for each step.
Set Up Oracle Applications Technology
The setup steps in this chapter tell you how to implement the parts of Oracle Applications specific to Oracle Work in Process.
The Implementation Wizard guides you through the entire Oracle Applications setup, including system administration. However, if you do not use the Wizard, you need to complete several other setup steps, including:
- performing systemwide setup tasks such as configuring concurrent managers and printers
- managing data security, which includes setting up responsibilities to allow access to a specific set of business data and complete a specific set of transactions, and assigning individual users to one or more of these responsibilities
Also, if your product uses Oracle Workflow to, for example, to manage the approval of business documents or to derive Accounting Flexfield values via the Account Generator, you need to set up Oracle Workflow.
