Description
This course discusses how to perform administrative tasks in an Oracle Applications systems environment. Students learn to manage security by granting users access and defining their application privileges, to register custom applications, to execute programs and reports using Standard Request Submission, and to audit and monitor system
processing. They also learn the purpose and operation of concurrent managers: how to distinguish between the internal concurrent manager and other concurrent managers, and how to define specialization rules and apply them to a concurrent manager.
Audience
The target audiences for this course are System Administrators, Application Developers, Implementation Team Members, and
Technical Support Professionals. Required prerequisite knowledge equivalent to Oracle Applications Release 11i: Navigation (course 64101).
