Personalisation makes it to the forms-based apps

Okay, so anyone who's been subjected to my ravings at OAUG conferences knows what a big fan I am of not customising..... hold onto your hats because the personalisation functionality from the self-service web apps has a new cousin in 11.5.10 - personalisation of the forms based screens! Move over folder tools and custom.pll, now we're really cooking with gas..... Ramakrishna Goud has put together a nice white paper on it. It's definately not in 11.5.9 - maybe I can find a patch on metalink to back-port it? They're just making 11.5.10 more and more worth the hassle every day aren't they... I think it's a plot :)

Took an insane quiz and apparently I'm a caramel - who knew?

This blog just wouldn't be complete unless I took some insane quiz and bored you all with the results....



You're a Caramel!! You are known for your
sweetness. You are comfortable with yourself,
and help others feel the same way about
themselves. You are generally friendly to
everyone, and believe in second chances.

Which kind of candy are you?


And the nutty part... that's actually quite true, and not such a bad thing I reckon, since I happen to be a consultant for a living ;)

Name 5 integration Points between the Oracle eBusiness Suite and the Desktop.... go!

Here's my ten:
1) j-Initiator launch
2) workflow and mail client (as in notifications)
3) export to excel (as in (N) File > Export)
4) attachments - loading and accessing
5) web ADI - create a spreadsheet
6) upload a journal from a web ADI spreadsheet
7) export to printer (as in (N) File > Print)
8) define and upload rates in the new currency rates manager (aka another clown suit for Web ADI)
9) every single fun thing in Client-Server ADI
10) ditto for Discoverer ;)

Don't you love sociability testing with multiple desktop SOEs?

Fixed Blog Comments Settings

Have fixed the comments settings to allow anonymous comments (thanks Warwick) - all right, I admit it, I didn't know how to do that.... I love learning to do these things on an as-needs basis ;) I wonder if there's anything else I should do... hmmm... (other than get on with my day... it's almost 7am!).
