The audit trigger names contain the first 26 characters of the audited table name plus _AI, _AU or _AD, where I, U or D indicates Insert, Update or Delete, respectively. The audit procedure names use the first 26 characters of the table name plus _AIP, _AUP or _ADP.
Why Concurrent Processing Does not interfere with the interactive work you perform at your computer Use the Standard Request Submission (SRS) interface to run reports and programs View the Status / Output / Log information Schedule reports and programs Control access to different reports and programs Alert on completion Fully use the capacity of your hardware by executing many application tasks at once.

Administering Concurrent Managers
Define Managers and their work shifts Specialize managers to run only certain programs Classify a program as a request type Monitor concurrent processing using Oracle Enterprise Manager
Balancing Process Workload Over Time

12 AM 00:00 Day work shift three processes 6 AM 06:00 12 PM 12:00 6 PM 18:00 11:59 23:59
Night work shift six processes
Graveyard work shift six processes
Defining a Concurrent Manager

Concurrent Manager Definition Specialization Rules Run Program A Run Program B Target Processes Specialization Rules For each work shift, define which requests Target Processes is a manager can read. the maximum number of programs the manager can run simultaneously. Work shifts define when a manager reads requests (is enabled). Work Shifts
Request Type
Define a request type.
Assign the request type to the appropriate concurrent programs.
Use the request type in a specialization rule.
Management Pack for Oracle Applications

The Oracle Applications Manager applet allows administrators to perform all Concurrent Manager administration tasks from the Enterprise Manager console. Applications Manager features the same tree and detail view as other Enterprise Manager tools.
Oracle Performance Manager
Oracle Performance Manager allows administrators to monitor performance statistics for Oracle Applications Concurrent Managers and host operating systems. Administrators can display this data in different chart formats.
Oracle Capacity Planner
Oracle Capacity Planner allows administrators to collect and analyze historical performance statistics from Oracle Applications Concurrent Managers and host operating systems to estimate future capacity requirements.

Workflow
Workflow Engine
Is embedded in the Oracle8i server Uses the process definition created with Oracle Workflow Builder to coordinate the routing of activities for the process Monitors the state of each activity in a workflow process Signals any changes in the workflow state to the engine using calls to PL/SQL or Java APIs Guarantees consistency between the application and the workflow state because of Oracle8i transactional integrity
Workflow
Directory Services
WF_USERS o Contains information on the user names, display names for the users, their notification preference and their e-mail addresses WF_USER_ROLES o Contains information on the association of the users to the roles WF_ROLES o Contains information on the roles of which users can be members
