Oracle's Application Extension Framework (AXF) is a command-driven, web services integration between a business application such as Oracle E-Business Suite or Oracle PeopleSoft and a content management application such as Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging or Content Server.
This chapter provides a summary of the application adapters provided with Oracle WebCenter Content. It has the following sections:
Section 6.2, "Oracle E-Business Suite Adapter for Content Server and Imaging"
Section 6.4, "Oracle PeopleSoft Adapter for Content Server and Imaging"
The open Java-based architecture of AXF allows integrators to configure and modify multiple business process solutions separately from the systems themselves, and to upgrade systems without affecting implemented solutions.
The following adapters can be configured:
The Oracle E-Business Suite Adapter for Oracle WebCenter Content provides integrations between Oracle E-Business Suite and the following WebCenter Content features:
Imaging, allowing document processing workflow tasks and related images associated with Oracle E-Business Suite business processes to be easily invoked, viewed and acted on.
Content Server, allowing documents related to the current Oracle E-Business Suite context (Forms or OAF page) to be easily accessed and attached via the Managed Attachments user interface.
See the Oracle WebCenter Administrator's Guide for Application Adapters for details.
The Siebel Adapter for Content Server provides integration between Siebel and Content Server, allowing documents related to the current Siebel context to be easily accessed and attached from within the Siebel user interface.
See the Oracle WebCenter Administrator's Guide for Oracle's Siebel Adapter and the Oracle WebCenter User's Guide for Oracle's Siebel Adapter for details.
The Oracle PeopleSoft Adapter for Oracle WebCenter Content provides integrations between PeopleSoft and the following WebCenter Content features:
Imaging, allowing document processing workflow tasks and related images associated with PeopleSoft business processes to be easily invoked, viewed and acted on.
Content Server, allowing documents related to the current PeopleSoft context to be easily accessed and attached via the Managed Attachments user interface.
