Implementation Process
What is Implementation ?
Once a Client purchase the Licenses of Oracle E-Business Suite, they will be
delivered a Standard Application Package. In the Standard Application Package
(Production Instance), they need to configure their Business Requirements as per the
Standard Business Procedures and their business practices. As a summary
Implementation is a process of configuring the application where their business needs is
working and their accounting structure is deriving the necessary accounting entries and
system is generating the Reporting as per the daily business needs, statutory requirements
and MIS reporting is generated in the Oracle E-Business Suite system
Types of Implementation
 Vanilla Implementation Approach – Vanilla Implementation is Configure the Standard

Application as per the Standard Business Process without customizing any of the
components. The clients are very much flexible on utilization of the software features and
go accordingly as per the standards available in the E-Business Suite. So that they will be
benefits on Cost, Implementation time frame is reduced, Maximum utilization of
application features and minimum training needs. It’s a good approach for the customers
to start up there ERP practice with this implementation on the initial period, so that by
using the application for a period of time course of 6 Months to 1 Year for better
understanding the Oracle Application functionalities and features. Later if required if any
of the process needs to changed from the standard procedure they can plan for the
Customize Components where ever is required. In vanilla Implementation we can also do
a little bit of customization as a Cosmetic Changes.
 Process Customization Approach – After a deep study of the business process and their
requirements, if the client wants to change Minor or Major application standard features,
then they can do a Customization in the E-Business Suite. Basically if there business
approach needs some more additional functionalities and more reporting needs which is
not delivered In the standard application as per the client required formats, then the
application will be modified, Customized and extended.

 Business Process Architecture (BP)

 Business Requirement Definition (RD)
 Business Requirement Mapping (BR)
 Application and Technical Architecture (TA)
 Build and Module Design (MD)
 Data Conversion (CV)
 Documentation (DO)
 Business System Testing (TE)
 Performance Testing (PT)
 Adoption and Learning (AP)
 Production Migration (PM)
Each Company has its own Implementation strategy and process on how to Start and End up
with a successful implementation which is derived from the AIM standards. As per my
Understanding the Implementation is divided into Different Phases. Below are the detailed steps
on How to Configure a Successful Implementation
Customer Activity
 Procurement of E-Business Suite Licenses from Oracle or Oracle Partners

 Get the Customer Support Identification Number (CSI) Number
 Identify the Implementation Partners or Team
Phase I – Project Manager / Delivery Manager / Senior Functional Team / Customer

Managers
 Identify Business Process Definition of Procure to Pay and Order to Cash Process
 Identify the Organization Structure of the Customer and which Operating Units comes
under Oracle E-Business Suite Practice
1. One Organization operates in One Country

2. One Organization Operates in Multiple Country
3. Multiple Organization operates in One Country
4. Multiple Organization operates in Multiple Country
As an Implementation process, where they required E-Business Suite Practice, so that

plan and provide the Oracle Multi Organization Standards
Phase II - Project Manager / Delivery Manager / Senior Functional Team / Customer

Managers
 Business Requirement Definition – Discuss and get Sign-Off from the Customer on what
is expected from Oracle E-Business Suite as Deliverables. It good if all the aspects are
discussed in detail to under the customer needs
 Requirement Gathering on Business Process Model

 Requirement Gathering on Financials Reporting
 Requirement Gathering on Day to Day Task and Daily Reporting
 Requirement Gathering on Auditing and Statutory Taxation Reporting
 Requirement Gathering on Management Information System (MIS) Reporting
 Fix a Time Line for the Deliverables and the Team who needs to Sing-off and Freeze
the Requirements
 Data Conversion - Data Migration (If any data’s needs to be imported to Oracle E-
Business suite from Legacy System)
Phase III – Implementation Team / Functional Consultants / Associate Consultants /

Technical Team
 Configure the CRP1 Instance mapping the applications as per the requirements
 Identify the GAP between Application and Business Model
 If any GAP is Analyzed Plan for the Customization Components (if Any GAP)
Phase IV – Technical Team and DBA Team
 Build and Customization the Application for Indentified GAP between Application and
Business
 Data Interface and Data Conversion – Legacy System Data’s
 Patching and Cloning - Clone the CRP1 and CRP2 Instance to a GOLD and UAT
Instance
 Plan for the Required Hardware and Software Supports
 Prepare a Plan for Cloning / Back Up / Security Issues / Connectivity Issues
 Prepare for Delivery to the Customers
 Performance Testing by Implementation Team
Phase V - Implementation Team and Customer Team
 User Acceptance Testing - Business Users Test the application as per the Business Needs
are configured as per the requirements sign-off Document
 Minor Change Requests - Modify the Setup Configuration in the UAT and GOLD as per
the Business Team flexibility in case of any Minor Modification
 Deliverables - Sign Off from the Clients on the Business Process Models
