18 Practices for Lesson 3: Getting Started


Practice 3-1: Enable an Offering

Goals
• Explore a disabled offering
• Explore an enabled offering
• Explore the tasks associated with an enabled offering

Time
5 - 10 minutes

Overview
In this practice, you will explore both a disabled and an enabled offering to understand the
differences. You will examine the enabled offering in more detail to determine that the offering
contains all of the tasks you might need to implement the offering.
Due to the nature of the shared environment, you will not be modifying the offering, nor enabling
other offerings.

Tasks
1. Sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Examine a disabled offering.

three possible states are:
• "Not Provisioned" (unavailable to you)
• "Provisioned" (available, but not yet enabled)
• "Provisioned, Enabled"
You will explore a provisioned, enabled offering in a subsequent step.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Practices for Lesson 4: Security Overview 29


i. Notice that Lisa Jones is associated with the NA Products - West organization.
Caveat: While this does not guarantee that she is not associated with a central
territory, for this practice it is safe to make this assumption. You will learn more about
territories in another lesson.
j. Select the checkbox to the left of the Lisa Jones record.
k. Click OK.
l. Verify that Lisa Jones has been added as team member, but that your user is the
owner.

m. Click Save and Close.


n. Verify that the OSC Visibility Account nn still appears in the My Accounts list.
This list shows the accounts for which the user is the owner.
o. Apply the "My Territory" filter.
1) Open the List list and select Create or Edit Lists.
2) Set Record Set Equals My Territory.
3) Click Search.
4) Verify that no results are found.
The student accounts are not assigned to any territories, hence will never see any
results for this query.
3. Sign out of the application.
4. Sign into the application as Lisa Jones (User ID = lisa.jones).
The password for Lisa Jones is the same as your assigned user.
5. Examine the accounts.
a. Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
b. Search for Lisa's owned accounts.
1) To the right of the List field, click the Show Advanced Search icon .
2) If the Record Set field does not appear, then open the Add list (this looks like a
button at the bottom of the Advanced Search pane) and select Record Set.
3) Set Record Set Equals I own.
4) Set Name Starts with OSC.
5) Click Search.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

30 Practices for Lesson 4: Security Overview


6) Observe that OSC Visibility Account nn account does not appear in the search
results.
This occurs because Lisa is not the owner of the account.
c. Verify the My Team filter.
1) In the Advanced Search pane, set Record Set Equals I am on the team.
2) Set Name Starts with OSC.
3) Click Search.
4) Verify that OSC Visibility Account nn is shown in the right pane.
This occurs because Lisa is on the account team.
Note that because multiple students are performing this practice, you should see
multiple OSC Visibility Accounts.
d. Explore the remaining filters.
1) Verify that no OSC records are returned by the "My territory" record set. (Set
record set = My territory and perform the query.)
As noted, the OSC accounts are not in Lisa Jones' territory.
2) Verify that no OSC records are returned by the "My subordinates own" record set.
Your user is the owner, and does not report to Lisa Jones.
3) Verify that the OSC records are retuned by the "My subordinates are on the team"
record set.
This may seem counterintuitive, but recall that Lisa counts as her own subordinate.
4) Verify that no OSC records are returned by the "My territory hierarchy" record set.
As noted, the OSC accounts are not in Lisa Jones' territory, nor her territory
hierarchy.
5) Verify that the OSC records are returned by the "I am on the team or territory"
record set.

Goals
• Modify a profile option value and verify the results

Time
10 - 15 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will modify the default close date for new opportunities that you create.

Conflict Note
Because profile changes are usually application-wide, you will first verify that user-level
customization of the profile in question is enabled. This would not normally be required, but is
required in the classroom to prevent conflict between users.

72 Practices for Lesson 11: Search


Practice 11-1: Configure Global Search

Goals
• Explore global search functionality
• Configure global search

Time
10 - 15 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will first test the existing configuration of global search. You will then
examine global search configuration settings to better understand how global search is
configured.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. If necessary, click Home to return to the home page of the application.
3. Explore global search.
a. At the top of the page in the Search field, enter Pin.
b. Wait for a moment as top suggestions are fetched.
c. Notice that no suggestions are returned, as you have not yet used Global Search.
If there are any results, it indicates that you or another student performed a global
search using this login. This is not an issue.

e. Wait a few moments for the search to complete.
If this is the first global search you have performed, it may take up to 1-2 minutes to
perform the search.
f. Notice that the search results are presented in a separate pop-up window rather than
on the application page itself.
g. Notice that the search results include a contact and an account.
This indicates that global search is indeed global in scope.
If there are other records, it indicates that other users are performing searches and
configurations that increase the number of results.
h. Filter the search results.
1) At the top of the pop-up window, click Show Filters.
2) In the left pane, next to Categories, deselect the All checkbox to deselect all

b. Query for Manage Administrator Profile Values.
c. Drill down on the result.
d. Query for Profile Option Code = FUSION_APPS_SEARCH_ENABLED.
e. Verify that at the Site level, the Profile Value = Yes.
This indicates that global search is enabled.
f. In the Profile Values section, click New.
g. In the Profile Level list, verify that User is available.
You can disable global search for individual users.
h. At the upper right, click Cancel.
5. Examine global search view objects.
a. Query for Manage Search View Objects.
b. Drill down on the result.
c. Notice the list of available search view objects and some important features:
• Many objects, such as Customer Center Tools, have Status = Inactive, and are not
being indexed for nor included in Global Search
• Custom objects, such as EXT Child and EXT SalesParent, are inactive by default,
but can be indexed and included in Global Search if you activate them
You may need to scroll down to see these objects.
• Active objects, such as Leads, may have either manual indexes (an administrator
must run the indexing process manually) or automatically-scheduled indexes
In the classroom image, many enabled objects have all been set to be indexed
manually for performance reasons
• You may determine whether or not to allow drill-down from the search results to
the object pages

Sales Cloud. If you want to customize the configuration, you must duplicate this
configuration and modify the duplicate; you cannot edit as-delivered configurations
• The DEFAULT search configuration is used by all other applications
d. Under Manage Global Search Configurations, drill down on Oracle Sales Cloud Default
Global Search Configuration.
e. Review the default settings for the Oracle Sales Cloud search configuration:
1) Under Autosuggest, notice that:
• Personalization of search groups is enabled
• Recent Items and Recent Searches will be suggested by autosuggest, but
Saved Searches will not
Since Recent Searches is enabled but Last Search is not, autosuggest will not
have a separate "Last Search" section, but will instead include the most recent
search in the Recent Searches list
• Suggestion group headings are enabled, so the suggestions are grouped in
the Suggestion list
• Autosuggestions won't be shown until at least 3 characters are typed, and at
most 10 suggestions will be shown
2) Select the Search Field tab.
3) Notice that the user may search on anywhere from 2-100 characters, and the field
is cleared after each search.
4) Select the Search Results tab.
5) Notice that filters are enabled to allow personalization of search categories.

76 Practices for Lesson 11: Search


Practice 11-2: Explore Work Area Search

Goals
• Explore work area searches
• Configure a saved search

Time
15 - 20 minutes

Overview
In this practice, you will examine work area search and saved searches.

Tasks
1. Explore work area search.
a. Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
b. Notice that List defaults to My Accounts.
This is an application-wide saved search that is configured to be the default saved
search for the Account landing page. Both the search and the default setting are part of
the as-delivered application.
c. Create a new account with name = OSC Search Account nn, where nn is your
student number.
d. Set Find = OSC%.
While a trailing wildcard is automatically appended to work area searches, explicitly
adding the wildcard is a helpful reminder when first getting accustomed to searching in
Oracle Sales Cloud.

e. Click Search .
You have performed a work area search.
f. Notice that several records are returned.
Although the default filter when you first navigate to the Accounts page is "My
Accounts", that filter is not applied when you conduct a work area search. Thus, a work
area search for OSC% can be thought of, "Search for Accounts starting with OSC
among all the Accounts I can see."
g. Perform an advanced work area search.
1) Click "Show Advanced Search".

2) In the Advanced Search region, select Add > Record Set.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Practices for Lesson 11: Search 77


3) Set:
Record Set Equals I own
Name Starts with OSC
4) Click Search.
You have performed an "advanced" search.
5) Notice that this search yields fewer results, because you explicitly restricted the
search to accounts you own.
h. Drill down on OSC Search Account nn, where nn is your student number, to navigate
to the record.
i. Click Cancel.
j. Click in the Find box and leave the mouse still for a moment.
k. Notice the Recent Items pop-up that shows you your most recent accounts.
l. Select OSC Search Account nn where nn is your student number and confirm you are
navigated back to the record's Edit Account page.
m. Click Cancel to return to the Account list page.
2. Configure a saved work area search.
a. If the Advanced Search region is not visible, click "Show Advanced Search".
b. Set Record Set = All records I can see.
c. Open the Add list.
d. Notice that both Address (Address Line 1) and City are configured as searchable fields
(they appear in the list).
e. Select City.
f. Set City Equals Seattle.
If you want to perform a single search using multiple fields, add the fields to the
Advanced Search, populate them appropriately, and click Search.
g. Click Save.
If you want to use the same search multiple times, save it as a saved search.
h. Set Name = All Seattle Accounts nn, where nn is your student number.
i. Deselect Set as Default.
j. Click OK.
k. Notice that Saved Search = All Seattle Accounts nn.
l. Verify that Pinnacle Technologies is included in the result set.
You have explored creating and saving work area searches, and including additional
fields in a work area search. Note that not all object fields are available for work area
search.
m. Sign out of the application.
n. Sign in as Lisa Jones. (Username = lisa.jones, password = the same password as
your assigned login).

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

78 Practices for Lesson 11: Search


o. Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
p. Open the List field and notice that All Seattle Accounts nn is not available.
q. By creating the saved search on the object page, the search is only visible to the user
who created it.
r. Sign out of the application and sign in using your assigned login.
3. Create a globally-available saved search.
For this step, one student should create a sandbox and all other students should use that
sandbox. The steps are written so that any student might be the first. However, it would be
best to cooperate with your fellow students to decide who is going to create the sandbox
before proceeding.
a. Activate the communal sandbox.
Recommended practice is to have only one user per sandbox. For this practice, in
order to see a globally saved search without it being published to the mainline, you
must be in the same sandbox as the user who created the search. Therefore, all of you
will be in the same sandbox, so that all of you can see each other's saved searches.
1) Open the list below your username and select Manage Sandboxes.
2) Query for Sandbox Name = Communal.
3) FIRST STUDENT ONLY: If no results are found:
a) Click New.
b) Set Sandbox Name = ApplCoreLongSB_OSC_Communal.
c) Click Save and Close.
d) In the Confirmation dialog, click OK.
4) ALL STUDENTS: Re-query for Sandbox Name = Communal.
5) Select ApplCoreLongSB_OSC_Communal.
Be careful to select the record, rather than drilling down on it.
6) Click Set as Active.
7) Notice the banner across the top of the page indicating that you are in a sandbox.
b. Create a saved search for Accounts.
1) Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
2) Open the list below your username and select Customize Pages.
This starts Page Composer, one of the customization tools available in Oracle
Sales Cloud.
3) Select Site and click OK.
4) If necessary, open the Advanced Search pane.
5) Set Record Set = All records I can see.
6) Open the Add list.
7) Select City.
8) Set City Equals San Francisco.
9) Click Save.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Practices for Lesson 11: Search 79


10) Set Name = All San Francisco Accounts nn, where nn is your student number.
11) Deselect Set as Default.
12) Click OK.
13) Close the Advanced Search pane.
c. Verify the results.
1) Open the List list.
2) Verify that multiple "All San Francisco Accounts" saved searches are available.
If not, you are most likely the first student to get to this point. Wait a few moments
and try again. Once you see multiple records, you are confirming that your can see
other users' global saved searches. This is why only administrators are allowed to
create global saved searches.
3) At the upper right of the page, click Close.
d. Once you have verified that you can see multiple saved searches, exit the sandbox.
1) In the bar at the top of the page, click ApplCoreLongSB_OSC_Communal.
2) In the pop-up, click Exit Sandbox.
3) Click Yes to continue.
e. Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
f. Verify that the only visible saved search is All Seattle Accounts nn.
Changes made in a sandbox are not visible outside the sandbox.

82 Practices for Lesson 12: Classification Categories


Practice 12-1: Create a Classification Category

Goals
• Examine available classification groups
• Create a classification category

Time
10 - 15 minutes

Overview
In this practice, you will first examine the available classification groups. You will then create a
classification category

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Examine classification groups.
a. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance.
b. Query for Manage Classification.
This allows you to have both tasks ready to run.
c. Drill down on Manage Classification Groups.
d. Click Search.
e. Notice that there are five as-delivered classification groups:

households. It is also the classification group used for customized dimensions
(auxiliary dimensions) in territory-based assignment.
• GROUP_PARTY_GROUP is used for classifications that may also be groups,
such as accounts (if the account is a company) or households.
• INDUSTRIAL_GROUP is used to classify industries.
• ORG_GROUP is used to classify organizations. You will be using this group to
create an organization type classification category.
• PERSON_GROUP is used for classifications that may be individuals, such as
contacts or accounts (if the account is an individual).
Although Oracle Sales Cloud provides functionality to create new classification groups,
only these five groups are used by Oracle's internal systems (for example, to provide
classification category lookups on the Account page or for territory-based assignment).
f. Click Done.
3. Create a new classification category and assign it to the industry group.
a. Drill down on Manage Classification Categories.
b. In the Search Results section, click Create.

explore visibility by changing your user's business unit, and then changing it back.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Verify that multiple business units are enabled in the classroom environment.
a. If necessary, navigate to Setup and Maintenance.
b. Query for Manage Administrator Profile Values.
c. Drill down on the result.
d. Query for Profile Option Code = HZ_ENABLE_MULTIPLE_BU_CRM.
This is the profile option to enable multiple business units.

Practices for Lesson 13: Multiple Business Units 91


To select other business units, you must use the offering rather than searching for the
task directly. This is an excellent example of a situation where searching for the task
directly, rather than using an offering, limited your access to the functionality. If you
encounter such situations, a best first step is to try running the task from within the
offering instead of from the Setup and Maintenance home page. These practices
usually skip that step in the interest of time, but in certain circumstances the step is
necessary.
d. Click Cancel.
e. Click Done.
f. Use the Sales offering to start the task.
1) In the offerings carousel, select Sales.
2) Click Setup.
3) On the Setup: Sales page, query for Specify Sales Business Function
Properties.
4) Notice that in the Organization Structures section, you can specify the scope for
the task.
5) Click Select to select the scope; in this case, the business unit in which you are
interested.
6) Set Business Unit = Select and Add.
7) Click Apply and Go to Task.
8) On the Manage Business Units pop-up, query for US1 Business Unit.
9) In the Search Results section, select US1 Business Unit.
Be sure not to drill down on the name, rather simply select the row.
10) Click Save and Close.
11) Notice that you are now on the Specify Sales Business Functions Properties page
once again, but this time you were able to select the business unit.
g. Notice that the profile options are in a convenient user-readable format.
For example, you can select a Sales Method using the list rather than manually setting
MOO_DEFAULT_SALES_METHOD.
h. Explore the options available that you can specify for a particular business unit:
• Sales Method
• Opportunity close behavior
• Opportunity assignment behavior
• Lead search behavior
• Lead assignment behavior
• Lead templates
• Partner lead registration and approval administrator
• Object mapping from lead or partner lead to opportunity
i. Click Cancel.
j. Select Actions > Go to Offerings to return to the Setup and Maintenance page.

4. Determine the Set ID for your business unit (US1 Business Unit).
a. Query for Manage Reference Data Sets.
b. Drill down on the result.
c. Search for Set Name = US1.
d. Verify that one result is returned, with Set Code = US1BUSET (this is the Set Id) and
Set Name = US1 BU Set (you need this to manage set-enabled lookups).
e. Click Cancel.
5. Examine multi-BU lookups.
a. Query for Manage Set Enabled Lookups.
b. Drill down on the result.
c. Search for Lookup Type = MOO_SETID_WIN_LOSS_REASON.
This is the Win/Loss reason lookup. Notice the "SETID" in the type, indicating that this
is a set-enabled lookup.
d. Notice that most of the codes are for the "Common Set" reference data set, and hence
are visible across all BUs.
e. Create a record with:
Lookup Code OSC_Reason_nn
where nn is your student number
Reference Data Set US1 BU Set
Start Date <Yesterday's Date>
Meaning Student nn's Lookup Value
It is sufficient for a single student to add a single lookup value here, so consider
working with your colleagues to create only one or two additional lookup values, rather
than an entire classroom's worth.
f. At the top of the page, click Save and Close.
g. Click Done.
h. Navigate to Sales > Opportunities.
i. Create OSC Opportunity nn, where nn is your student number.
Because you are a member of the US1 Business Unit, this opportunity will be
associated with that business unit, and therefore you should be able to see the lookup

Practices for Lesson 14

Overview
In these practices, you will explore creating provisioning rules and sales users.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

98 Practices for Lesson 14: Sales Users


Practice 14-1: Create a New Resource Role, Provisioning Rule, and
User

Goals
• Review the resource role for sales representatives
• Create a resource for custom sales representatives
• Review the provisioning rule for sales representatives
• Set up a provisioning rule for custom sales representatives
• Create a new sales representative using this provisioning rule
• Review the resource organization for this new sales representative

Time
20 - 30 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will first examine an existing resource role before creating your own. You will
then explore two provisioning rules to familiarize yourself with the format of a provisioning rule.
You will set up a custom provisioning rule for your own sales representatives. To verify your
work, you will create a sales representative user and verify that the provisioning rule works
correctly. You will also check the resource directory to check the new user’s resource
organizations. Finally, you will set the user's password and test logging in as the new user.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Review the resource role for sales representatives.
a. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance.
b. Query for Manage Resource Roles.
c. Drill down on the result.
d. Query for Role Name = Salesperson.
e. Drill down on the Salesperson result.
f. Notice:
• This is a System role
You should not modify System roles
• The Member checkbox is selected, but not Lead, Manager, or Administrator
Sales representatives are application users, not managers or administrators
• You can see the list of resources (users) assigned to the role
• There are no job mappings for the role
Job mappings are not used for provisioning users in Oracle Sales Cloud, but are
used in other applications

Practices for Lesson 15:
Security Console
Practices for Lesson 15

Overview
In these practices, you will explore managing users, notifications, and roles from within the
security console.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

106 Practices for Lesson 15: Security Console


Practice 15-1: Explore the Security Console

Goals
• Use the security console to:
− Manage users
− Manage notifications
− Explore the security role hierarchy
− Create a custom security role

Time
30 - 40 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will explore the various features of the security console, including user
management, notification management, and security role administration.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Explore user management in the security console.
a. Navigate to Tools > Security Console.
b. If necessary, dismiss any warnings.
c. On the left, click the Users tab.
d. Query for CRM.Student.
e. Notice that all of the CRM Student accounts are listed, along with pertinent
administrative information:
• The user login, first name, and last name
• Whether the user is active, whether the user's password is locked, and the user's
password expiration date
• The person number, manager, job, and business unit
Note that the Job field is blank for all CRM Students, as Oracle Sales Cloud uses
Resource Roles rather than Jobs
• Associated party information, if any
f. Notice the Add User Account button.
For Oracle Sales Cloud, due to the provisioning rules and the Resource security role,
recommended practice is not to create users here, but rather to use the Manage Users
task and provisioning rules. Other applications such as Human Resource Management
use this page to create new users.
g. Locate your User, and open the Action list.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Practices for Lesson 15: Security Console 107


h. Notice that you could lock the account (preventing the user from logging in until you
unlock it), reset the user's password, or delete the user.
Recommended practice is to use the Manage Users task to lock or delete a user, and
the Security Console to reset the user's password.
3. Explore username and password management in the security console.
a. On the left, click the Administration tab.
b. Under the User Preferences, examine available formats for how usernames are
generated:
• FirstName.LastName uses the user's given name to generate a username; for
example, Scott Tiger becomes Scott.Tiger
• E-Mail uses the user's e-mail address with the domain omitted; for example,
sktiger4895@invalid.com becomes sktiger4895
• FLastname uses only the first initial, so Scott Tiger becomes STiger
• Person or party number uses the party number you saw on the user list
• The "Generate system user name when generation rule fails" generates a
username, typically the person number, when the selected rule cannot generate a
username; for example, if the rule is FirstName.LastName and the user's first
name has not been specified
c. Under Password Policy, examine the available password policies:
• The "Days Before Password Expiration" and "Days Before Password Expiry
Warning" are self-explanatory
− Set these both to 0 to turn off password expiration
• The "Hours Before Password Reset Token Expiration" is used when a user clicks
the "Forgot Password" link
− The user receives an e-mail with a password reset link
− The user has the number of hours specified here to click that link before it
expires
• The Password Complexity section allows you to specify the required complexity of
your passwords, whether to disallow the last password, and whether the
administrator can reset passwords manually
4. Explore notifications in the security console.
a. On the Administration page, click the Notifications tab.
b. Notice the Enable Notifications checkbox.
When you are performing initial implementations, you may want to disable notifications
to avoid spurious messages being sent to test users.
c. Drill down on the Password Expiry Warning Template.
d. Notice:
• You can disable individual notifications
• The template has a name, description, associated event, subject, and body

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

• The message body includes special fields enclosed in ${ } notation
− These fields are automatically populated in the template when you select an
event type
e. Click Cancel.
f. Click Add Template.
g. Open the Event list.
h. Notice the available events.
All available events already have associated templates, but you can create additional
templates and choose which template to use for a particular event by
enabling/disabling the associated templates.
i. Click Cancel.
5. Explore the role hierarchy in the security console.
a. On the left, click the Roles tab.
b. Set Search = Sales Representative.
As you type, notice that a list of matching roles is displayed, including job roles (roles
associated with users' jobs), duty roles (roles representing individual areas, such as
opportunity management), and privileges (specific access, such as the ability to click a
button or create a record).
c. Under Job Roles, click Sales Representative.
d. In the left pane, notice that the details of the role are shown, including the internal
name.
e. In the right pane, notice that a list of child roles is shown.

4) Notice the large number of users associated with this role.
For the classroom environment, the implementers chose to create a custom role
for sales representatives and associate it with users instead of using the default
Sales Representative role.
5) Use the + button to zoom in until you can see the name of the role within its circle.
6) Scroll to any edge of the circle and verify you can see various user names
associated with the Sales Representative enterprise role.
7) Click View as Table.
8) Notice that by default it shows you the roles associated with your role.
9) In the upper right, select Show > Users to see a list of users associated with the
role.
This is a convenient way to determine all users associated with a role.
10) Select Expand toward = Privileges.
11) Verify you are returned to the default view for the role.
6. Copy and edit a role.
a. In the regional area, right-click Sales Representative and select Copy Role.
You cannot edit seeded roles, so it is necessary to create a copy to explore editing.
b. Select "Copy top role".

Territories
Practices for Lesson 22

Overview
In these practices, you will first explore territory assignment in the classroom environment. You
will then examine the territories and territory assignment settings to verify this behavior. Next,
you will create a territory proposal and create a new territory within that proposal. Finally, you
will explore additional territory configuration options.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

168 Practices for Lesson 22: Territories


Practice 22-1: Explore Territory Assignment

Goals
• Examine territories in the classroom environment
• Create an account and test territory assignment

Time
20 - 25 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will first examine some of the territories that have been set up for the
classroom environment. You will then create an account and test the territories to which it is
assigned. You will make some modifications to the account and observe how the assigned
territories change.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Examine the root (top level) territory.
The territory hierarchy you will examine in this practice was set up for the classroom
environment, and is not part of the as-delivered application.
a. Navigate to Sales > Territories.
b. Perform an advanced search to locate the root territory.
1) To the right of the List field, click the Advanced Search icon.

2) Set Name Starts with Global Sales.


3) Click Search.
c. On the right, drill down on Global Sales.
d. Notice:
• Owner = William Taylor. Every territory must have an owner.
• Type = Prime. The root territory is typically a Prime territory.
• Parent = <blank>. The root territory does not have a parent.
e. Also notice that you are allowed to change the territory type here.
This indicates that user-level editing is enabled for the classroom image.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Practices for Lesson 22: Territories 169


f. On the left, click the Coverage tab.
g. Notice that all of the dimensions have Coverage = Any.
This indicates that Global Sales covers all dimensions.
h. Notice that there are no additional included customers.
i. Notice that there is an edit button that allows you to edit the dimension coverages.

Once again, this is available because user-level editing is enabled.


j. On the left, click the Team Members tab.
k. Notice that only the owner is a team member.
Typically the root territory has only a single team member, as records assigned to the
root territory are "outliers" that are not assigned to any other territory. Thus, this team
member is a manager or administrator whose job is to notice when records are
assigned to him or her, and react accordingly to find out why the record was not
assigned to any other territories.
l. On the left, click the Child Territories tab.
m. Notice the large number of child territories, all with Type = Prime.
Different territory types tend to have their own hierarchies, so it is unsurprising that all
of a prime territory's children are also prime territories.
n. Drill down on Global High Tech Sales.
o. On the left, click the Child Territories tab.
p. Notice that this interface allows you to navigate the territories one "layer" at a time, but
does not give you an overall view of the hierarchy.
q. At the top of the applet, expand the Actions list and select Return to List
r. This returns you to your original search.
3. Compare the dimensions for several territories.

a. At the top of the page, click the More Details button .


This navigates you to the territory management page. It may take 1-2 minutes for this
page to load.
b. Notice that the active territories are now displayed in a more convenient hierarchy, but
this display takes more screen space than the previous page.

Copyright © 2017, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

170 Practices for Lesson 22: Territories


c. At the top of the top applet, click Dimensions to see the dimensions associated with
each territory.
d. Expand Global Sales > Global High Tech Sales > NA Direct Sales > NA Business
Sales, scrolling down as necessary.
e. Arrange the page so you can easily compare the dimension settings for NA Business
Sales, Key Accounts, NA Business Sales - Products, NA Business Sales - Services,
NA Inside Sales, and NA Sales Consulting.

f. Notice:
• Type = Prime for all the territories except NA Inside Sales and NA Sales
Consulting.
This means that each child Prime territory should differ in at least one dimension
from the parent and from each other. The Overlay territory need not differ from the
other territories.
• For every territory, Geography = North America.
• While 3 of the territories (NA Business Sales, NA Inside Sales, and NA Sales
Consulting) all have Product = Business Products and Business Services, the NA
Business Sales - Products territory has only Business Products and NA Business
Sales - Services territory has only Business Services.
This is sufficient to separate these two territories.
• For every territory, both Industry and Organization Type = Any. This indicates that
industry and organization type are unused dimensions in this part of the hierarchy.
• In the Customer Size column, if you click the "4 more" link, you will see that size =
Very Large, Large, Medium, Small, and Very Small for all the territories except Key
Accounts (Size = Any).
• For every territory, Sales Channel = Direct and Business Unit = Any.
• For Key Accounts, Account Type = Named, while for NA Business Sales -
Products and NA Business Sales - Services, Account Type = Not Named.
This is sufficient to separate Key Accounts from the products and services
territories.
• For all the territories, Customer Type (an auxiliary dimension) = Business.
Conclusions:
• NA Business Sales, NA Inside Sales, and NA Sales Consulting all have the same
dimensions and therefore the same coverage. Thus whenever you create an
account in North America and specify its size, with Sales Channel = Direct and
Customer Type = Business, you should see a sales, an inside sales, and a
consulting territory assigned.

Practices for Lesson 22: Territories 171


• Because the Product dimension is not used for accounts (it is used for
opportunities and leads), both the products and services territories will be assigned
as long as the account type is Not Named.
g. Expand NA Business Sales - Products.
h. Notice that there are three child territories.
i. Notice that the three child territories have different values for the geography dimension.
j. Verify that this is also true for NA Business Sales - Services, NA Inside Sales, and NA
Sales Consulting.
You may conclude that account created in Chicago should have four territories
assigned to it: NA Products - Central, NA Services - Central, NA Inside Sales - Central,
and NA Sales Consulting - Central. You will next verify this result.
4. Create an account and observe the territories to which it is assigned using the Geography
dimension.
a. Navigate to Sales > Accounts.
b. Create an account with:
Name OSC Account nn
where nn is your student number
Type Customer
Country United States
Postal Code 60606
By entering the postal code first you are be presented with
city/state/county options to choose from. Select Chicago,
Cook, IL.
Address Line 1 100 Madison Street
City Chicago
State IL
c. Click Save and Close.
This forces assignment to run.
If you are presented with a "Possible Duplicate" warning, click "Continue with Create".
d. Drill down on OSC Account nn.
e. On the left side of the page, click the Team tab.
f. Open the Show list and select Territories.
g. Verify that four territories have been assigned, including an inside sales territory, a
services prime territory, a products prime territory, and a consulting overlay territory.
In addition to confirming your observations on the territory dimensions, this confirms
that automatic assignment is running for accounts, so accounts are assigned as soon
as they are created.

172 Practices for Lesson 22: Territories


If you do not see any territories, select Actions > Run Assignment to perform the
assignment.
5. Edit the account address and observe the changes to the assigned territories.
a. On the left side of the page, click the Profile tab.
b. In the Addresses section, drill-down on the current address.
c. Modify the address by setting (in order):
State CO
City Denver
Postal Code 80201
d. Click OK to accept the updated address.
e. Click Save.
f. Click the Team tab.
g. Open the Show list and select Territories.
h. Notice that the territories are similar, but are now for the west rather than central U.S.
If the territories do not change from central to west, select Actions > Run Assignment to
perform the assignment.
You should then see the west territories assigned.
i. Click Cancel.

Practice 24-1: Create a Rule-Based Assignment Rule

Goals
• Create a rule that assigns a resource to an opportunity

Time
5 - 10 minutes

Overview
In this practice you will create a rule that assigns your user to the sales team for all opportunities
where the opportunity revenue is greater than $100,000. Configuring the rule requires setting a
profile option to reference the new rule. While you can set this profile option at the user level,
setting the option that determines whether to use territory- or rule-based assignment is only
available at the site level, so you will have to cooperate with other students when setting it.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Start the task.
a. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance.
b. Query for Manage Sales Assignment Manager Rules.
c. Drill down on the result.
3. Create a rule set.
a. In the Rule Sets section, set Category = Sales Team Member Recommendation
Default Rule Category.
b. In the Rule Sets section, click Add Row.

c. In the Rule Sets applet, set Name = OSC Rule Set nn, where nn is your student
number.
d. Click Save.
Saving frequently ensures you will not accidentally lose your work.

Concurrency Issue: This profile option must be set at the Site level, so multiple
students cannot set it. The first student will likely set this value, and the remaining
students will verify it. If you encounter unusual behavior, wait a few moments for other
students to finish, re-query for the profile option, and verify it has been set correctly.
The error you may see is:

This error is harmless, and means another user already set the value.
1) In the Search: Profile Option section, set Profile Option Code =
MOO_OPTY_DEFAULT_ASGN_MODE.
2) Click Search.
3) Verify that the search returns the desired profile option.

200 Practices for Lesson 25: Forecasting


Practice 25-1: Explore Forecasting

Goals
• Explore forecasting options

Time
5 - 10 minutes

Overview
In this practice you explore the forecasting options.

Tasks
1. If necessary, sign in to the application using your assigned login.
2. Start the task.
a. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance.
b. Query for Select Forecasting Options.
c. Drill down on the result.
3. Examine Forecast Period Parameters.
a. Notice the Forecast period is set to a quarter which is typical.
b. The Adjustment Period is a read-only field and displays the period type that was
selected when the accounting calendar was set up.
c. The Forecast Frequency is 4 which generates 4 submission windows. This supports
holding forecasting once every 3 weeks or so in the quarter (4 times in a quarter).
d. The First Forecast Due Date is set to 5 days after the forecast period start date so the
submission window ends very early in the period; probably for a preliminary forecast.
e. The Territory Freeze Date is set to 5 days before the forecast due date because we
want the forecast submission windows to start at the beginning of each period.
f. The Number of Scheduled Periods is set to 5 because we want to view forecasts for 4
quarters, plus a fifth period, most likely for adjustments.
4. Examine Unadjusted Forecast Criteria region.

a. Enable nonrevenue forecasting is checked to generate separate forecasts for overlay


territories.

Practices for Lesson 25: Forecasting 201


b. Enable Forecast Criteria Override is checked which allows salespeople or their
managers to include or exclude an opportunity from a forecast regardless of its win
probability.
The selection is made in the opportunity. The screenshot is an opportunity being
edited.

c. The inclusion of opportunities in a forecast is set to win Probability Greater than or


equal to 70.
That means if you are using the Standard Sales Method, all opportunities in the
Agreement or later stages is included.
5. Examine the Product Tab region.
