Oracle E-Business Suite Reviews

It's our ERP system, so we house our financials in it. We use it for supply chain management and operational reporting. We manage our payroll, accounts payable, and accounts receivable through it. Basic ERP functions in our organization are all managed through it.

It provides us with a centralized location to have an enterprise-wide GL and other module solutions. It allows us to normalize all of our systems into a single database. We did achieve some improvements, though I don't have those numbers.

In the past, I used Oracle E-Business Suite for reporting purposes and application development for business purposes, such as fulfilling business requirements like order processing, procurement process, cash management, and general ledger. As part of the BI team, I used it as a data source to file, summarize, aggregate, and pull historical data into the data warehouse system, then created data reports on top of that.

For business purposes, the main feature is the drill-down functionality. We can drill down from the sales order line to the invoice and payment at the detailed level. Another feature is the ability to dynamically add or hide columns based on business needs. We also have reporting features that allow submission of concurrent programs for reports, which is useful. Oracle E-Business Suite provides standard APIs for integrating with custom applications, which is another valuable feature.

It's for governments, as an integrated financial management suite. We deploy, customize and configure it to fit their needs.

Oracle is a decent, robust solution that has been tested and used for many years. It can do everything, but the problem is that in the past few years, even on the database side, there are more cost-effective options that perform equally well. That's the biggest challenge we face as system integrators working with Oracle systems.

At this time, it matched our requirements, and I believe it helps our operation to be more efficient.

The challenge is figuring out how to adapt operations to fit the software because the software cannot do everything. Sometimes you have to change the way you're doing things and adjust. That's difficult because it involves people in the organization. At first, they think the server can do everything, but it's the opposite. You have to work with the server to achieve your goals. That's the challenge.

The solution itself is okay. Before we used the cloud, we faced issues with data input and retrieval. But with the cloud, the infrastructure and software are stable. We don't have any issues with the software itself. That's one advantage.

Another advantage is that the people who need to support the back end of the application are no longer required. The ability to access the platform anywhere is also a benefit, especially with remote work.

We are using Oracle E-Business Suite for end-to-end application of the Oracle procurement management. It gives me a complete picture and the cost of production of goods. Additionally, we use it for our application database server, along with storage and the tape.

It's a tightly integrated solution. We could roll out other operating units very quickly without depending on the developer. There's a lot of leverage for Oracle E-Business Suite in the market.

I use the solution at an entry-level in my company because it's not fully implemented. I am an internal auditor in my company, so I have limited access here, and I just take care of the reporting views and displays. I have no rights to entry or other posting-related functions. I can just talk about the reporting experience associated with the tool.

I do internal audits in my company. On a daily basis, I have to extract many reports, like general ledgers, procurement-related registers, invoices reports, sales reports, receivable reports, and accounts receivable aging reports. During my review of the reports mentioned above, I found Oracle E-Business Suite very good. I have already used SAP Business One software. Compared to SAP Business One software, Oracle E-Business Suite's reporting is very wide and clear.

With the limited scope of the tool, I cannot enlist the product's overall advantages and disadvantages. Compared to SAP Business One, Oracle E-Business Suite is much better in terms of reporting views.

Our primary use case for Oracle E-Business Suite is finance, procurement, and property management in the retail sector.

It helps the finance team by facilitating financial processes and supports the procurement team through its batching capabilities.
