If you've been thinking about installing or upgrading to Release 12 but need to understand more about why you should do so, this is the book for you. For functional users, The Release 12 Primer highlights the modules that have changed the most. Read about Oracle's Global Business Release, Master Data Management, MOAC and the Swan Interface. Then see how it all comes together for the Financials and Procurement product families, Supply Chain Management, CRM, and Projects. And if you've always wanted to understand more about the underlying technology, but found all the terminology too complex to sort through, this book covers the technical architecture, security issues, and even Fusion, targeting both functional and technical readers. "The Release 12 Primer provides the real story on the latest version of the Oracle E-Business Suite and its technical underpinnings. If you only buy one book on Oracle E-Business Release 12, buy this one." - Floyd M. Teter, Systems Engineer, JPL
