Jeffrey,

See below...I provided the URL to this in my original response which is directly from Steve Chan's blog. Your best bet is to call your Oracle account rep to be 100% certain.

Hope it helps.

Hi, Bob,

Licencing terms are covered in the EBS Price List Supplement; please refer to that for the authoritative list of licencing conditions or check with your Oracle account manager. I am not a licencing specialist and cannot provide authoritative guidance on licencing.

EBS 12.2 uses Oracle WebLogic Server (WLS) instead of Oracle Containers for Java (OC4J). Customers' existing E-Business Suite licences will cover these requirements. Existing E-Business Suite licences include iAS EE, which in turn includes WLS Basic.

In other words, WLS Basic covers the use of WLS in EBS 12.2 for standard uncustomized EBS environments. No additional licencing is required for EBS 12.2's use of WLS in uncustomized environments.

Regards,

Steven
