That is a good place to start. You might consider adding a little if you have many concurrent transactions or want to increase the undo_retention to a high number. Once you are using AUM, keep a close eye on v$undostat, though there are some known issues with it not populating properly, keep an eye on the begin_time and end_time. However, for estimation purposes it should work.
