Oracle Applications Release 11i: FlexFields
Key and descriptive flexFields give end users and technical personnel the ability to customize an Oracle Application to meet their business requirements without programming. Key flexFields enable multi-segment, intelligent keys, and allow segment validation and security. Descriptive flexfFields provide users custom expansion space on forms. This course introduces the learner to different types of flexFields and their various uses, components, and benefits. In this course, the learner gains practical experience in defining value sets, key flexFields, and descriptive flexFields. The learner also gains knowledge about the different advanced table validation options. Note: This course does not cover particular flexFields (such as the Accounting FlexField) in depth.Learn To
