Cross-Product Features | Get help in the application

In this tutorial you’ll learn how to find help.

This is the first time I’m using this page, so I’m looking for some help.

Click Procurement.

Click Purchase Requisitions.

Most pages have help, which we can get to using help icons like this one.

Highlight Help icon next to the Requisitions page title.

Let’s take a look. I think this has what I’m looking for.

Click the Help icon.

Click the Requisition Item Search Options link.

This opens up in a new browser tab, so I can keep it open while I work. We’re looking at a book in the Oracle Help Center.

I can use the table of contents or the search to find other info in this book.

Highlight the table of contents on the left, then scroll up and highlight the Search field.

I can also use these links to jump to a specific section of this topic that we’re on, and I have the option to hide or show this panel at any time.

Click Expand Search Options: Stemming, Fuzzy and Begins With.

Click the Expand All icon.

Also, my boss had told me that I can find our best practices and policies in the help window. Let’s go back and see.

Go back to the Help window and click Best Practices and Policies.

This is help that my company added. Here, we can do things like email the info to others.

Now, suppose you don’t see any help icons on a page. First, check if they're hidden. If they are, you'll see Show Help Icons in this menu. Click that to reveal the icons.

Open the Settings and Actions menu and click Hide Help Icons.

Click Show Help Icons.

But some pages don't have any help icons. In that case, you can always click Applications Help to open the Oracle Help Center.

Click Applications Help.

Go to your cloud service or use the search to find the information you need.

Highlight the Procurement link and then the Search field.

Thanks for watching.
