Sort order (also called collation sequence) is specified during the initial installation of a database and defines the way in which the database sorts character data when executing queries. Sort order support depends on both the code page of the database and whether it is used in a development or a production environment:
The settings for binary sort order are unique for each database platform. For Siebel language support, Unicode support, and legacy code page support, see 1513102.1 (Article ID) on My Oracle Support.

If these limitations are unacceptable, then consider re-creating your database to use binary sort order. However, be aware of these considerations:
