How many modules are there in the current eBusiness Suite ? [message #119110]

Hello Everyone,

I guess this seems like an easy to answer question but unfortunately I haven't been able yet to really answer it ...
We are looking at 11.5.10 and how many separate, single modules there really are for this release ?
Which do only exist on paper but not in reality and which are part of another module and not a real, separate module all on its own ?
I already searched Metalink but wasn't able to gather enough information there.
Any other ideas or maybe even the answer ?

All input will be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Claudia

What about querying the FND_APPLICATION table?

SELECT COUNT(1)
  FROM fnd_application
 WHERE application_short_name NOT LIKE 'XX%';

The where clause is in order to exclude non-Oracle applications. Convention has it that theses should have a name starting with 'XX'.

If you do not like SQL, you could do this within the application.

Go to the Application Developer responsibility.
Choose Application>Register from the Navigator.
Query all applications (Ctrl+F11).
Count them manually, excluding any custom applications.

Hi Aleksander,

thanks for your reply and good hint. I ran the sql and got back 195 different applications, but I am not sure that all of these are real, actual modules.
Like for example:
Applications Shared Technology
Asia/Pacific Localizations
Application Implementation
Application Utilities

and so on. But maybe my definition of a module is insufficient. For me a module can be one or more applications which a business or technical user can actually access via a log in in HTML (most CRM modules) or Forms (most Back-end modules).

I fear that only Oracle (maybe their Sales or Marketing department) could give a real answer ... but on the other hand I somehow doubt that (knowing this company just a little bit ...) Wink

Would like to get your ideas on the above module "definition".

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Claudia

How about counting the different user guides on the documentation CD? That should give you a pretty good idea of the number of modules.

I am curious, why do you need to know the number of modules?

Core Apps:
Grants Accounting
Receivables
Purchasing/Procurement
Payables
Human Resources (with or without payroll extension)
GL
Inventory

Second Tier:
Order Management
Assets
OIT
etc
etc
etc.
This is a very extensive list to my understanding.

edit - That's Order Management, not Order Manufacturing...

Steve, I do not agree with you that Grants Accounting is one of the more important applications in the Oracle E-Business Suite. It is more of a public sector add-on to Oracle Projects.

I think it originally was an Oracle Consulting project that later morphed into an application. That would account for the rather interesting choice of data model. I seem to recall you having some issues with it. Wink
