Customizing Oracle Applications with the CUSTOM Library
The CUSTOM library allows extension of Oracle Applications without modification of Oracle Applications code. You can use the CUSTOM library for customizations such as Zoom (such as moving to another form and querying up specific records), enforcing business rules (for example, vendor name must be in uppercase letters), and disabling fields that do not apply for your site.
You write code in the CUSTOM library, within the procedure shells that are provided. All logic must branch based on the form and block for which you want it to run. Oracle Applications sends events to the CUSTOM library. Your custom code can take effect based on these events.
Attention: The CUSTOM library is provided for the exclusive use of Oracle Applications customers. The Oracle Applications products do not supply any predefined logic in the CUSTOM library other than the procedure shells described here.
