Implement Procurement

To start an implementation of Oracle Fusion Cloud Procurement, you must be assigned a configured job role that's based on the Application Implementation Consultant (ORA_ASM_APPLICATION_IMPLEMENTATION_CONSULTANT_JOB) job role.

Also, you must opt into the Procurement offering, plus other offerings that are applicable to your business requirements.

Refer to the Oracle Applications Cloud: Using Functional Setup Manager guide to manage the opt-in and setup of your offerings.
