Hey Friends, The basic idea for creating this blog is to have a Technical information about Oracle Applications. To have one such place where you will have a TECHNO-FUNCTIONAL knowledge of Oracle Applications.

Apps Professionals:



Now there is a basic classification for the Oracle Application professionals.
1. Functional.
2. Techno-Functional.

# Functional:
As mentioned earlier Oracle Application is nothing but a set of Application, a software called as E-Business Suite. So the Functional person is responsible for the front end utilization of the Oracle Application.
Say one of the company wanted to use Oracle Application as an ERP. The role of the functional person starts here. He will take care of the entire information gathering, all the requirements of the customer, its organization. Then he will be doing all installation and setups of Oracle Application to tailor Oracle Application for the customer’s requirement.

# Techno-Functional:
Oracle Application provides a collection of default standard forms and Reports through which user interacts with the Oracle Application. But it may happen and most of the times happen that the client who wants to implement the Oracle Application for his organization needs many modifications in these forms and Reports. Here comes the role of the Techno-Functional person.
He is the one who will be provided with the requirement of the customer/client by Functional person in the Team. And then he will actually do these changes as per the requirements. The reason he is called Techno-Functional is because he has to have a basic knowledge of the business process(a functional side) in order to understand the requirement from the client. As well as he has to have deep knowledge of SQL/PLSQL language, RDBMS concepts, Reports, Forms and the technical information about the module he is dealing with to make these changes. The technical knowledge about the module includes:
1. Database, schemas being used.
2. Important Tables for that module.
3. Relationship between the table structure. ie Links (join conditions) between these tables.
4. Directory structure of the server.


Because I am a techno-functional I will be targetting the Technical side ...... What do you want to be ?
