Hello, I'm in IT infrastructure and my division is converting to
Oracle. The folks at corporate HQ have claimed that the following two
things are not possible in Oracle 11i.
Can anyone comment?
- Date field on interface: We don't care how the data is stored on
the backend; the concern in that the order entry process will be
significantly slowed if our reps have to enter all dates as 15-AUG-07
on the front end. Adhering to the day/month/year format is not a
problem; the problem is that our entry people are so fast that they
want to enter all orders as 15-08-2007. Can the front end be
customized to accomodate this, and if so, how much work is it?
- Case sensitivity issues: One of our problems is that our customer
identifier is currently case sensitive - can this be changed so that
Samsung and SAMSUNG are seen as the same customer, and the back end
fields are identical? Also, can the invoices and packing lists be
generated so that they look nice? Currently all packing slips and
invoices are generated as SAMSUNG, in all caps. We'd like it to
appear as Samsung - is this a huge project to make this happen?
Thank you in advance for your expertise.
Regards,
J.F.
