Session #10494: Going From Public to Private – The Oracle E-Business Suite Challenges

The Search for the Single Source of Truth: Eliminating a Multi-Instance Environment
Presented by Helene Abrams, CEO
Changes in financial reporting requirements have transformed the fixed asset accounting framework.

So what’s the difference, and when should you use each? This session will address fixed asset accounting and reporting under both models and how each is accounted for in Release 12.
