Oracle E-Business Suite Mobile Applications

 
Oracle E-Business Suite mobile apps enable users to perform needed tasks or take action on Oracle E-Business Suite transactions from mobile devices including iOS and Android smartphones Using EBS mobile apps, users can perform activities such as:
  • Approving workflow requests.
  • Entering and submitting time-cards.
  • Creating and managing purchase orders.
  • Executing warehouse stock movements.
  • Performing inventory counts.
These capabilities allow employees to remain productive while working remotely or travelling.
Oracle E-Business Suite mobile applications can be found by searching “Oracle America EBS” in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.


 
Technical Overview
Oracle EBS mobile applications are developed using the Oracle Mobile Application Framework (MAF). This framework is also available to customers for building custom mobile applications when standard offerings do not fully meet business requirements.
However, Oracle does not support direct customization of the source code for standard mobile applications, except for:
  • Corporate branding configurations
  • Supported flexfield extensions
The mobile applications communicate with Oracle EBS through REST web services. These REST services are delivered as part of the standard Mobile Framework within EBS. For environments running versions earlier than Release 12.2.10, certain server-side patches may be required before the services are fully operational.
From a security perspective, users authenticate using their existing EBS credentials, eliminating the need for separate account management. The default authentication model is username and password–based, with additional options available, including Single Sign-On (SSO). Advanced security configurations can be implemented as needed.

Version Compatibility
Oracle EBS mobile apps are compatible with both Release 12.1.3 and Release 12.2.3 and onwards, as well as iOS 12.3 or later and Android 6.0 or later. EBS mobile apps are available only on the Apple iOS and Google Android platforms.
It is worth noting that there are some minor differences in behaviour when comparing the apps on iOS and Android. When developing these applications Oracle will test the iOS versions on iPhones, iPod Touches and iPads which gives very good device coverage. On the Android platform, Oracle will test on Samsung Galaxy and Google Nexus devices only. Due to the huge variety of Android handsets available, Oracle does not provide device-specific certifications on this platform.
