If you are implementing a new instance of the Oracle e-Business Suite and have relatively standard implementation requirements, you can use Oracle iSetup to rapidly configure the following applications:
Oracle General Ledger
Oracle Payables
Oracle Receivables
Oracle Cash Management
Oracle Assets
Oracle Purchasing
Attention: In order to use Oracle iSetup, the source, central, and target instances must be the same patch set level. For more information refer to the Oracle iSetup User Guide.
The following steps may need to be performed to implement Oracle General Ledger. These steps are discussed in detail in the Setting Up sections of other Oracle product user's guides. The following table lists each step with a reference to the various Oracle Application user guides.
During GL setup, you need to complete several steps related to other products:
Performing system-wide setup tasks such as configuring concurrent managers and printers
Managing data security, which includes setting up responsibilities to allow access to a specific set of business data and complete a specific set of transactions, and assigning individual users to one or more of these responsibilities.
