Oracle Certified Professional Financial Applications Consultant Exam Guide (Book/CD-ROM package)
Oracle Financials play a big role in the information infrastructures of  many companies, and a solid understanding of that environment can pay very large  dividends in consulting work.Oracle Certified Professional Financial  Applications Consultant Exam Guidereadies you for the four exams (two core  and two elective) that make up the Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) Financial  Applications Consultant track. The book tackles the exams one at a time,  explaining what you need to know--conceptually, as well as in terms of software  details--about the Oracle Financials environment. The exercises help drive  information into your long-term memory, and each chapter is peppered with review  questions that help prepare you for what's on the exams.This is more than a test-prep book, however, and it's likely that you'll be happy  with it even if you have no plans to pursue a formal Oracle certification. The  large and complicated concepts that underlie Oracle Financials are explained, a  difficult job that the book does well. It's also careful to maintain a focus on  business objectives, instead of on characteristics of the software itself. One  section explains the process of creating a blanket purchase order, properly  accounting for the purchases that are made against it, and then releasing  individual purchase authorizations under the order's terms. The index is  extensive and detailed, so finding the documentation that you need is rather  easy.--David WallTopics covered:The Oracle Financials suite of applications, with a bit  of a bias toward the four Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) Financial  Applications Consultant tests. The details of the material that's on the  Financial Management, Applied Technology, Procurement, and Order Fulfillment  exams all appear here, which means that you can use this as a general-purpose  Oracle Financials reference, and not only as a study helper.
