Some questions following our last JRE certification indicated that there's still lingering confusion about which JRE releases are safe to use with E-Business Suite environments. To recap: JRE releases 1.6.0_18 through 1.6.0_22 had issues with mismanaging session cookies that affected some users in some circumstances. The fix for those issues was first included in JRE 1.6.0_23. These fixes will carry forward and continue to be fixed in all future JRE releases. In other...

The E-Business Suite has its own security and user-management capabilities. You can use the E-Business Suite's native features to authenticate users, authorize users (i.e. assign responsibilities to them), and manage your EBS user repository. The majority of E-Business Suite system administrators simply use these built-in capabilities for enabling access to the E-Business Suite. When EBS built-in capabilities aren't enough Some organisations have third-party...

Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 comes with a small number of prebuilt portlets that can be used with Oracle WebCenter and Oracle Portal: Applications Navigator, Favorites, and Worklist. These portlets are JSR-168 and WSRP-compliant and can be used with third-party web development tools. While those portlets do what you'd expect, you might need more options for embedding EBS functionality into your custom corporate websites. That's possible -- you can create your own...
