Oracle E-Business Suite Primary Use Case

SB
Senior Manager for IT Strategy and Planning at a comms service provider with 10,001+ employees

Our use case is primarily finance and procurement. We have a procurement team, a finance department, and some managers responsible for approving a procurement request. We also have users who build and customize reports for board members, senior management, or auditors.

We plan to adapt Oracle EBS to integrate with our CRM, HR, and other applications. It provides financial insights and covers payroll, so it needs to be combined with the project portfolio management solution or the CRM. We have many changes ready for when we go live with the CRM.

Sr. Project manager at Department of National Defence

I use this solution for human capital management. It's all been mingled into one product called Oracle HCM Cloud. It manages all your HR requirements from hiring, onboarding, and managing your payrolls. It has over 10 different models inside. Oracle expects clients to have that product, which is the basis for your financials, sales and distribution, procurement, etc. If you have HCM, you basically set up the structure of the enterprise.

Most of their applications have been moved to cloud enterprise. It's SaaS, and they have a patch where they provide the database and application so you can work on it. There's another one where they provide everything and you have your own infrastructure of hardware as well.

Senior Manager at Genpact - Headstrong

Most companies use Oracle E-Business Suite for finance and supply chain management, but we mainly use it for payroll in the current scenario. We also use it for the core HRSCM compensation benefits as part of Oracle Fusion.

The company has been working with Oracle E-Business Suite for a while, but now they are gradually moving into Oracle Fusion SCM, so they have acquired some product offerings for Oracle Fusion SCM. They want to run it on Oracle SCM, but their core system is still Oracle E-Business Suite. They have adopted a different type of solution for core HR and recruitment. We use another organizational tool for the recruitment part, so we have to build code systems to integrate Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Fusion.

That's another general use case for Oracle E-Business Suite, but it varies among organizations. If they want to run HR and finance separately, a lot of integration is necessary to get the employee details into Oracle Finance. We have to pass payroll information into the GL and finance side, so the company would prefer to keep everything in the ecosystem where payroll is happening. They generally use Oracle Finance Payroll. Core HR is part of the Oracle E-Business Suite model they have. Now, they're looking for that functionality on a different SaaS-based solution. It can be Oracle Fusion or SuccessFactors. 

It is a hybrid office approach because no single solution will work because of all the regulations. Some departments of a financial institution have specific policies for their data centers. They generally need to use an on-premise solution, but some want to move to the cloud environment, but there are content restrictions. 

They are already using the on-premise Oracle E-Business Suite solution, so we need to implement it and one other thing. That Oracle E-Business Suite has a lot of customization options that aren't possible in a SaaS-based solution. It varies from process to process and industry to industry.

PW
Supplier Core Data Management Program Leader at a wholesaler/distributor with 10,001+ employees

One of the best use cases is centralizing supplier and customer data into our finance system. We identified that there were many duplicate suppliers and customers and so a lot of time was spent reporting.

When the tsunami happened in 2009, our top management asked us how many suppliers were impacted in that particular area and how it would impact our supply chain cycle. When we tried to answer this question we thought that it would take one or two weeks, but it took our entire team three to four months to identify how many suppliers were impacted. That showed how important it is to remove the master data from our financial system and start maintaining it separately.

I implement the solution for customers in Saudi Arabia who prefer on-premises solutions.

E-Business Suite is an on-premises solution but you have the option to deploy its infrastructure as a service. For example, we have already implemented Amazon, Google, and Oracle on the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. With the infrastructure, you don't need to have your own data center but you need to have ownership of your database and more. You have options with the solution. You can install it on-premises, host it elsewhere, or place it in a cloud solution like Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as a service.

Based on my technical background on Oracle EBS, I can tell that the primary use case of this solution is having a sophisticated software, an ERP, in the environment. It is to have a software system that consists of global business applications with built-in integrity. Generally, my customers use it for their business applications: CRM, Financials, Human Capital Management, Procurement, Supply Chain and more. There are also some seperate applications outside these ERP systems, but mostly, they are also tightly integrated with EBS.

Oracle E-Business Suite is a corporate business product. It has financial, logistics, HR modules, et cetera. It contains lots of modules. Thanks to this, our clients can track all of their business needs with one platform. They can also design their own business needs using this product.

Within our organization, we also use Oracle E-Business Suite. However, we are only using a small part of it, mainly for financial purposes. We don't have any logistics issues. We are consultants: we don't buy and sell products, we don't have a warehouse, et cetera. Actually, all our call centers are onsite. From a company perspective, we have only five or six users, E-Business users. It's hard to give an exact number of how many clients of ours are using this solution, but if I had to estimate, I'd say roughly 10,000 users.

Go To Market Executive at #Liferocks Consulting

The business case around using the different Oracle products in this category generally comes down to the discussion regarding migration to the cloud. Specifically, Fusion would be migrating away from an on-premise-heavy environment to a subscription cloud environment. People are generally not looking at E-Business at the moment because of the push to the cloud. In certain countries where there are public sector rules regarding data sovereignty and data storage, they would look at E-Business as their solution because it can base critical data on-premises. From my vantage, everybody is moving to Fusion or should have moved to Fusion, but the fact is that some people still can not. Those who can not will use E-Business.
