OracleForms and Non Profit

Good Evening,
I have a question? I am a non-profit cio and my org is looking at using oracle forms and reports to develop our enterprise information system consisting of student information(demographics,courses,grades,fees,discipline,admissions/enrollment), Financial information(ap,ar,grants,chart of accounts,etc),donor/fund-rising Management,Point of Sales(linked to donor management and to student information),and Human Resources(employee,volunteer,payroll), Campus Management(Connects all data by campus assigned to data . Now is oracle forms the right development tools for a project like this? How long would a project like this take using these tools take? Is this a cost affective move? Would we need to get new hardware? (currently 2 winser2003, 1 quad core other celeron,1gb of ram other 512mb of ram). If any body could give me feedback on this that would be great. You can post or e-mail me.

Is this the hardware including the database server? It is very minimal indeed
But yes, you can do all things you want in forms, but you will have to calculate the cost. The application server you need does not come cheaply if you need processor licenses.

If you are looking for something cheaper and you have developers with PL/SQL experience, go for Oracle Application Express (Apex). If you have developers with Java experience, go for ADF/JDeveloper.
I would advise that if you start from scratch, you should not use forms. Although Oracle is committed to keep upgrading forms, it is "old" technology for them.

  • Separate Tenants for Project Pro and Non Profit Licensing

    Hi - we have a nonprofit client that is eligible for the E1 donation but cannot add Project Pro to that account. We were told by a Microsoft tech that the client would have to start another account to use Project Pro.  My question is If
    Project Online and Office 365 are separate accounts, will the calendar and user information still work like it should when adding tasks to project? 
    Thanks in advance
    Linda

    Hello Linda,
    This is possible. You can have project online and Project Pro for office 365 on two different tenant. Once you install Project Professional, you need to configure the account in project professional to connect to your project online tenant. Below article
    contains the steps connect to project server from Project Professional. In step 4 user have to enter the URL of Project online tenant and when they try to connect they need enter their Project Online credentials. Everything should work as expected.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/project-help/connect-log-on-to-project-server-HA010373238.aspx
    In fact once you install the Project professional for office 365, you can connect to any PWA instance to which you have access to (on-premise and online).
    Hope this helps!

  • Full version verses Education and/or Non-profit Issues

    I purchased V8 1 Week before V9 was released for the purposes of training a non-profit group. I was told that the educational Version was the same as the full and Non-profit version except that I can not use it commercially (for profit). Since I am an educator and an active part of a non-profit I was told that I could get the Ed. Version.
    What I discovered was that their seems to be extreme limitations to forms that are sent to others. They can not fill them out and send them back filled out.
    Is this a problem that exists in the full licensed version? If so why?
    Did I make a mistake in buying the Ed version as opposed to the Non-profit version?
    As the Non-profit version IS the full version and the Ed version is not?
    What Features does the Full version have that are not present in other respective versions?

    There is nothing different in the educational version. This is a
    limitation of both.
    Adobe take the view that certain form features are "value added" and
    so they are not automatically available. These include saving a
    filled in form and submitting a whole PDF.
    (Note however that the normal way to manage forms is to submit form
    DATA, not to try to send a PDF. Submitting is normally to a web
    server. This is freely available. Commonly, people assume that they
    must submit by email and must submit in PDF form, but this is in the
    long term often a bad choice; but if you must, someone pays.)
    The choices are
    1. Each person using the forms buys Acrobat.
    2. People use Reader, but forms have something extra called "Usage
    rights" added. The choices are
    (a) LiveCycle Reader Extensions is a big ticket server product to add
    these. The price is by negotation according to use.
    (b) Use a licensee of this software to add usage rights on a "pay per
    form" basis. http://www.formrouter.com/
    (c) With strict limitations, Acrobat 8 Professional and above can add
    usage rights. These are contractual limits described in the EULA. It
    is very important to read and understand these as they are a binding
    contract, but to oversimplify, each form is limited to 500 users or
    500 times used.

  • Font licensing for a non-profit company

    Hi. I volunteer for a non-profit company here in South Africa that spreads awareness about Childhood Cancer and also raises funds for children with cancer.
    I need to know what type of licensing is required for fonts that I use in posters and such...
    TIA
    Lisl

    You can find all the information about fonts licensed from Adobe (including fonts bundled with Adobe applications) at:
    Font licensing information, end user licensing agreements | Adobe
    There is no restriction against use of any Adobe-licensed font in any print media (such as posters) to answer your specific question. Obviously, though, you can't “give” the font files to the printer or publisher, but you can embed them in print-ready PDF, EPS, and PostScript files. Furthermore, Adobe font licensing makes no distinction between for-profit and non-profit use.
    Note that for fonts from other font vendors (i.e. not Adobe), other licensing requirements including higher cost licenses or even royalties may apply.

  • I am the founder of a non-profit organization, a donor had just given us her used iBook G4.  What do I need to do to wipe out her "stuff", change username and password, start all over new.  We will use this iBook in our learning center in Saigon, Vietnam

    To good citizens of the MAC world,

I am a 2 years MAC users and I have no intention to return to the Dark side.  Please help. I have the original OS disk.  Thank you so much.

  • I had to G5's 2.2Ghz donated, and they were not wiped clean, and I don't have a Leopard CD. Anyone know what I can do? I am a non profit.

    I would greatly appreciate some help here. I have two PowerPC's that were donated to my community center, and they were not wiped clean. (insert major frowny face) I am at a loss on what to do, being a non profit I don't have much money to spend on having these cleaned off at a local "Authorized Mac Store." I have my figners crossed that someone here might be able to offer me some guideance.
    Thanks in advance,

    Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things.
    Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
    Go after large files that you have created & know what they are.  Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

  • Creative Cloud for Teams (Non-Profit) Renewal Loop

    Every time I open any Creative Cloud app I get this window:
    When I click "Try Again" I get this window:
    When I click "Continue" I get the previous window (above) again.
    If I click on "Have a different Adobe ID?" and input my password via that window it will open the program and everything works fine. However, this loop occurs any time I open an Adobe CC app. Doesn't matter if I have already gone through this procedure on the same program. Once I close the program and reopen I am given these same pop up Renewal notices.
    I have gone through and performed the opm.db file removal. I have signed out and signed back into the CC desktop client. I have done the manual AAM update linked on other threads here. I have also upgraded (just this morning) to the latest CC desktop version. The problem still persists.
    NOTES:
    I have a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription (Non-Profit) purchased through CDW. I have verified that my subscription is in good standing. Though the subscription is nearing its renewal date when i inquired about renewal the representative said that at this time they (Adobe) are still working on procedures and pricing for renewal.
    Running on a Mac Pro early 2009 2 X 2.26 Quad Core Xeon with 16GB RAM and NVIDIA Quadro 4000. I am also experiencing the same issue with my MacbookPro Retina Core i7 with 16GB RAM. Both systems are running the lastest Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated!

  • How do I get Quicken data back for our non-profit

    The best thing to do is get I Bank your Quicken data will import to it really well. I did it months ago and ran parallel. When I installed Lion I knew Quicken would not be supported.

  • Hp Touchsmart Computer Help for a Chicago Non-profit

    Hello All,
    Im wondering if someone can point me in a general direction, I work at a non-profit http://www.associationhouse.org/Main/Services.html  and need help with an HP IQ815 Touchsmart Computer with Vista Home.  We have a couple of said Touchsmart Computers and we are going to utilize them like a kiosk, so people from the community can get information on our various training programs and possibly even sign up for them depending on how robust the software is.  Also it would be helpful to have the program password protected so people cannot change images etc..  Now this might sound premature because I have not even messed around with the computer yet and I have no previous experience doing so, but im on a very tight schedule and if I can hit the ground running it would be ideal.  My question is this, is there onboard software that I can use to achieve this or should we buy something?  We are willing to buy something because we want it to be a in-depth experience.  Any advice comments warning would be very much appreciated, and you will help us give people training they need to make a living.  Thank you so much.

    I would buy a personal kiosk program,and customize it.

    Hope this helps.
    I have more HP devices than you'd expect.
    1 HP TouchPad 32 GB with Android
    2 HP Touchsmarts (310-1000z and IQ527)
    2 HP Printers (J6480 and J5750)

    Have at least some experience in each of those devices, and i'll do my best to help you.

  • Optimal Computer Workcenter Lab Enviornment for a Non-Profit

    We are setting up three 20 station computer work areas  for a non profit that does homeless services. These labs will be places for clients to come in throughout the day and get resumes done, do job searches etc. We have 20 new dell workstations /
    Windows 8 Pro.  We need to set these up where multiple users can come easily sign in and start doing work but we want them to be fixed desktops that cannot be altered (GPO) and easily managed.  Is Desktop Virtualization the best way to go? thanks
    for any input..

    Hello Generating a Unique Transaction Number,
    If my understanding is right, you want to have 20 computer for homeless service, and you want easily sign in and manage.

  • Different segment in same document for leading and non-leading ledger

    Hi,
    Is it possible to have different segments derived in the same document for Leading and Non-leading ledgers.
    Is there an exit where we can substitute the segment originally derived so as to update only in one particular ledger
    Please suggest.

    Thanks Alex for your response.
    But would it be possible to update the segment only in one ledger, the other one carrying the default values coming from profit center?

  • Opening balance upload in Leading and NOn leading ledger.

    Hi All.
    We are in the phase of opening balance upload. We are using Leading and Non leading ledger concept. Our Leading ledger starts on 29th of March 2009 as per UK reporting and Non leading ledger starts from 1st April to 31st of March as per India reporting.
    We were going to upload the opening balance as on 22nd of Nov as per UK reporting. But here We stuck because as per India reporting our 2008 fiscal year has been closed on 31st of march 2009 also financial books has been closed. But due to UK reporting we are carrying 29th to 3st march 2009 P&L balances in Leading ledger which has been considered in the India Balance sheet ( has come in Profit and Loss Account).
    Here I am not able to understand that how I should upload the 29th to 31st march P&L balances in leading ledger because if I will upload these through F-02 or FB50 BDC than these will effect the India balances also. If I am using the FB01l or FB50L to upload the Non leading ledger balances, than system is not allowed me to upload the balances in open item management accounts. System prompt me following message.
    Postings to G/L accounts with open item management are not permitted
    Message no. FAGL_POST_SERVICE012
    Diagnosis
    You use G/L account 213702 in company code 7041 with open item management. However, postings are not permitted to G/L accounts in individual ledgers with open item management.
    Procedure
    If you have not yet made any postings to this account and if the account is to be used for closing processes in non-leading ledgers, deactivate the Open Item Management indicator in the company code data for the G/L account.
    Can any one tell me that how I can Achieve the same with correct P&L affect in Leading Ledger and correct effect in Non leading ledger Profit and loss account.
    Appreciate your immediate response.
    Many thanks

    Hi
    If your problem is solved, can you please let me know the solution for upload of customer, vendor and other open GL items in Non Leading Ledger.
