Business Challenge Oracle E-Business Suite is the ‘System of Record’ for thousands of businesses around the globe but rarely exists in isolation. The business processes it supports span multiple applications and data sources across the enterprise. The addition of SaaS based applications has added a new dimension to this equation. Existing automation approaches have been ad hoc and opportunistic in nature. While custom code has been created to execute individual processes, the lack of dependencies between processes creates the need for manual user intervention. This equates to highly skilled staff being tied up as they attempt to bridge the gaps between various application siloes – while costly delays and errors continue to hold the business back.
