Oracle has released an interesting feature to create some traction and make client want to move to Fusion. This feature is labelled as Actionable Organization Chart, and it is a new and intuitive way of looking at reporting hierarchy. Additionally, actions could be taken directly from the reporting hierarchy, and the availability of these actions can be restricted by setting up security.
The only consideration is that this is a feature from Fusion, and therefore requires a WebLogic server to run. Thus, there will need to be a connection between the WebLogic server and Oracle EBS WebServer for this feature to function.
Further documentation can be found below:
1. Using the Organization Chart Feature in Oracle SSHR [ID 1408355.1]
2. Advisor webcast by Oracle at: DOC#1455851.1> Archived 2012 > Go to the one from May 10, 2012.
Questions/ Unknowns at this point are (as received from Kerry):
a. What technical effort is required
b. What functional effort is required
c. What are the sizing issues
d. What happens to Self Service if the weblogic server goes down.
