    " what are the complete set of responsibilities and duties of a oracle apps functional consultant in support project?"
    Thanking You,

    Abdul Baseer,
    I'm not a functional consultant but what I would suggest is querying projects responsibilities (Security > Responsibility > Define) "search for %Project%" and see which one should be assigned to your projects users.

    Hi
    New Oracle novice
    The better way to learn Oracle application (any module) is if you have a Domain Knowledge or experience and the company where u r seeking this domain experience should have implemented the ERP suit then that is the real kind of experience that how its works for your environment. Environment could be Manufacturing(Descrete/Process), Financials, Human Resource, or Distribution wherein the product Oracle application is mapped.
    Basically Oracle application is suited for any kind of industry in the World and can be mapped upto 85% and the remaining 15% of mapping can be done by means of Customization or any workarounds.
    To become more elobarative and professional you need to go thru the documents/pdfs and metalink information....etc., so that any industry that you can understand can Map the same into Oracle apps.
    Hope this little bit clear to you.
    Thanks

    Dear All,
    I have 4+years of Investment Banking Operations experience worked on Treasurey operations, client services, Legals and Reporting side. Can any one suggest me can i shift my career to Oracle financials - Functional consultant. I do remember when I was working for reporting we used lot of Oracle applications.

    Well for sure the Documentation is really good. In addition to it, I would suggest that you should take up OCP DBA course from OU.That course will help you to get basic( and a little more than that ) knowledge of oracle database and its various parts.That will make up your base from where you can move ahead readind docs, reading astktom.oracle.com.
    Wish you the best.

  • Oracle Apps Functional Guidance

    Hi Guru's,
    Currently i am working as a Oracle Apps Technical Consultant from past 4 years.
    Now i am planning to move SCM Functional side ( SCM Functional Consultant ). Is it right decision.? Please suggest me....

    Hard to answer the question. It depends on your experience level, aptitude and your personal likings.
    But typically that is the path taken by most techno-functional consultants.
    It is important to make sure you work with the business and understand various business processes. That will make you platform independent.
    If you are really interested in functional work in Supply chain area, you can look into getting CSCP or CPIM certifications. They are a bit pricey and may not offer a great value for money. However, some folks find them very useful.
    Hope this helps

    plz let me know i am very confused,i can't decide on this one plz help me out...?So what is the definition of " oracle apps technical consultant"
    or "oracle apps dba"
    These are not universal technical terms with clear meanings. ALL job titles mean only what the person/organization using them means for them to mean.
    Which will be good for you?
    Only you can decide that, based partly on the answer to my first question, and partly on what you want out of life. (And notice I said "what you want out of *life*", not what you want out of a job, or a career.)

  • Oracle Techno Functional module career path suggestions

    Hi,
    My educational background is BE(Computers) and MBA (Banking and insurance). At present I am working as QA lead and have 5 years of work experience in QA. But I want to switch my career path from QA to Oracle techno functional consultant with oracle finance module. Can anybody please suggest what will be my future prospects or career path for this. I wanted to sign up for a oracle techno functional training but before this wanted to get some expert advise if this will be beneficial. Any help in this matter will be deeply appreciated.

    I was an accoutant by trade 1991-1999 and started learning DB concepts and reporting in general. I was able to get a job writing crystal reports for Solomon accounting package. That led to support for the accounting package. That was in 2000.
    Our company purchased the Oracle ERP suite in 2003, so i was able to go to train and be here for implementation and go live. I was lucky in that i was able to get training. You have a good business background, which is very important for functional analysts. The tough part is too get a foot in the door in a company that uses Oracle.

    Hi,
    I can tell you about my experience in different process.
    I usually have a first interview with the recruiter/agency this first interview is quite general, he usually review your CV, job history,... the recruiter ask you about your interest or motivation for that process, if you are willing to travel, reallocate, etc.. your salary expectations and your knowledge in the different modules. This is the easier interview and if everything is ok, the recruiter will tell you for next steps, probably about the project, the employer, etc...
    In the second interview normally is with the consultancy company, with the manager and an experience consultant that usually asks about technical questions, they ask for example, how to setup a dual accounting process with SLA in GL, which reports you would use to reconcille AP/AR and GL, how many segments do you need to setup in GL for a specific business situation, how to load assest in FA, which are de accounting steps from buy goods until you account the AP invoices,...
    In some cases you have also a final interview with customer just to get the final approval, but the really important one is the second interview.
    Good Luck ;-)

    Imran,
    Personally, I would recommend Oracle University training over any other personal training. Oracle provides a “100% Student Satisfaction” which means if you are not satisfied with your learning experience you can request a free retake of the same class title within 90 days & within 50 miles of their original class.

    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=82
    I believe the best way to learn is to have your own vision demo instance and start reading Oracle documentation. In addition, Oracle blogs and Metalink are also good source of information. I must also admit that I have learned a lot through this forum, so you can go through old threads and read about others experiences. You can also post your question and will definitely get an answer.

    For the number of days, there is no specific answer as it depends on what (and how many) modules you want to learn. The duration of Oracle courses varies between 2-5 days for each module. I suggest you go through Oracle education website for more details.
