During implementation, administrators use the collections checklist to set a value for most of the Oracle Advanced Collections system profile options. These profile options are set at the site level and specify how Advanced Collections controls access to and processes data. Other profile options can be set by individual users. These profiles can be changed later in the Setup module, if needed.
