OA Personalization Framework allows you to personalize your user interface (UI) of Oracle Self-Service Web Applications without modifying any underlying code.
Following are some common types of personalizations you can accomplish with OA Personalization Framework:
– Change the prompt for a field or other text on a page – Hide or show a field on a page – Make the fields mandatory and non mandatory – Reorder fields or items on a page – Restrict data that a user can access – Add new buttons, links, text items, images, etc. (Creation of Items)
2. Profile Options:
S. No Profile Option Level Purpose1 Disable Self-service Personal Site Level or
Application LevelDisables all the personalization’s made
2 Personalize Self Service Defn User or Site Global Personalization button on every page will appear to do the necessary personalization
3 FND: Personalization Region Link Enabled
User or Site Personalization link appears at every region on the self service page
3. Personalization Levels
There are different Levels available at which the Personalizations can be made are
Function – Custom/Seeded Site Organization and Responsibility Level
Version 1.0 Page 3
Training Document
OA – Personalizations
Function Level: You can create personalizations for a region at the Function level, such that the personalizations are visible only when you display the region by selecting a specific function. For Example, suppose you have an updatable region and you want that region to be updatable when accessed from FunctionA in the menu, but to be read-only when accessed from FunctionB in the menu. To accomplish this, you create a Function level personalization that makes all the fields read-only for FunctionB. You can have only one set of personalizations per region per function.
Site Level:
A site refers to an installation of Oracle Self-Service Web Applications. Personalizations that you make at the site level affect all users of the current installation.
Organization Level:
Depending on the context you choose, an Organization can be a plant, a unit, a department, a division within a company or even a complete company (BG). Personalizations that you make at the Organization level affect all users of that Organization.
Responsibility Level:
When you make personalizations at the responsibility level for a specific responsibility, the changes are effective only for the users of that responsibility.
