others (e.g., A-Z).

Example: Local Content Exclusion and Inclusion Rules

iProcurement Content Security
Whats New?
Include specific suppliers
Include specific categories
Make content accessible to
specific user groups
Lets Look at how category rules are defined:

iProcurement Content Security
Whats New?
Create Category Specific
Stores (e.g., Legal Forms
and Services) by creating
one or more category
specific Content Zones
Include content for some
users (e.g., Buyers) that
should not be available to
the general public (e.g.,
Novice Requesters).
Example: Include Specific Categories (local content):

suppliers
Include specific categories
Make content accessible to
specific user groups
Lets Look at how supplier rules are defined:

iProcurement Content Security
Whats New?
Include items on GBPA,
BPA, Quotation, Requisition
Templates from specific
suppliers.
Segregate Inventory and
Externally Sourced content
into separate Stores by
creating multiple Content
Zones with different
inclusion settings.
Example: Include Specific Suppliers (local content):

iProcurement Content Security
Whats New?

Include specific categories
Make content accessible
to specific user groups
Once content rules have been completed, the Content Zone
may be assigned to all, or some, users:

iProcurement Content Security
Whats New?
Assign Content Zone to specific
Responsibilities, Operating Units,
or all Users.
Increase Security
Inclusion and Exclusion rules provide more control over
content.
Responsibility and Operating Unit assignments enable
specific user sets to access specific catalog content.

Document Styles
Implementation Considerations
Document Styles is a new concept in Release 12. It is a configuration tool that reduces the
complexity of the application by allowing procurement managers to control the available
functionality and the display of PO documents.
A document style is mandatory on a PO document. The style setting controls the document
display on the HTML UI for document creation, update, and viewing of individual document, as
well as the allowable values during the document creation and update.
A style can only be applied at the start of document creation. It cannot be replaced with
another style or removed from a document.
Standard Style: This will be the only seeded style and will be used for upgrade of the documents created
prior to R12.
Non-standard style:
Any new styles created in R12 are considered non-standard.
Purchasing documents with these styles can only be created and
processed through the Work Center.

Implementation Considerations
New Profile Options
Entire Purchasing functionality requires the Multi Org Access
Control (MOAC) setups to be configured correctly. The following
new profile options need to be set for MOAC
MO: Security Profile - the group of operating units that
can be accessed in HTML Orders
MO: Default Operating Unit - the default OU that should
be used when creating new POs.
If customer is not leveraging MOAC, they can continue to use R11i
profile option MO: Operating Unit.

Advanced Approvals Support for
Requisitions
Description
Parallel Approvals
Notifications are sent out to multiple people simultaneously
to speed up the approval process
Position Hierarchy Support
Advanced Approvals Support for
Requisitions
Parallel Approvals
In 11.5.10, approvers for a given requisition are
notified sequentially
To satisfy regulatory requirements (e.g. Sarbanes-
Oxley Act), organizations may need to involve more
approvers
With parallel approvals, several approvers can be
simultaneously notified for a given requisition, thus
speeding up the requisition approval process
Parallel approvals can be setup within an approval
group or for individuals

Advanced Approvals Support for
Requisitions
Voting Method
A Voting Method is a way of sequencing the
approvers within an approval group/chain of authority
Types of voting methods
Consensus
All approvers must respond. Approvers will receive
notifications in parallel
First Responder Wins
Approvers will receive notifications in parallel, but only the
action of the first approver to respond will be recorded
Advanced Approvals Support for
Requisitions
Position Hierarchy Support
In addition to the Employee/Supervisor Hierarchy
support, the integration with Oracle Approval
Management (AME) also supports Position Hierarchy
Approval routing structures using positions and
position hierarchies remain stable, even if individual
employees leave their organization, or transfer within
it
Advanced Approvals Support
Example
Business Rules:
If requisition < $5,000, then requires approvals up to first
two positions up based on position hierarchy
If the items category is [IT.EQUIPMENT] then require
approval from IT Approval Group
IT Approval Group is in parallel to position hierarchy
approval chain
Advanced Approvals Support
Example Approval List
A requisition for computers totaling $4,500 is created. The req will need to
be approved by the position hierarchy chain and the IT Approval Group.

Since req total is between 0 and 5000, the first 2
positions up (based on the Position Hierarchy
Rule) is generated
Approval Group returned in
Approval List since Item Category
is [IT.EQUIPMENT]
Advanced Approvals Support
Example Approval List
A requisition for computers totaling $4,500 is created. The req will need to
be approved by the position hierarchy chain and the IT Approval Group.
