Oracle Financial Applications
The following classes are designed for new Oracle users or those who need a refresher course for basic applications in the general ledger and purchasing.
Please note, there is no longer a water cooler at this location.
Module I: Purchasing Requisitions - In this class, users are introduced to the Oracle applications and they will learn how to "navigate" through the various forms and functions. In addition, users will become familiar with basic Oracle terminology, selecting a responsibility, menus, and keyboard short cuts. Once users understand the basics of navigation, they will learn how to place a requisition for items and services purchased from outside suppliers. Users will also learn how to forward a requisition to an approver for reservation and approval of funds. Users will be taught how to view summary screens, view reports, set up preferences and customize data. This class should be attended by anyone who places requisitions for their department.
This session will also include a brief overview of navigating the Oracle program.
