OPM and SLA

This week's task is tryng to get my hands completely around how to switch from using the OPM MAC to the Oracle SLA module. I hoped that since we were upgrading from 11 to 12 that maybe our business logic would migrate over for cost accounting but unfortunately that wasn't quite the case (some of the logic did migrate but most of it did not).

Now comes the fun part of trying to get the SLA up and running in a way that will jive with our cost accounting department. While there's plenty of documentation out there on how to implement SLA, there isn't quite as much about what needs to be done in order for SLA to function properly with OPM. However, today I did find a jewel on metalink that helps quite a bit, its Doc ID 822303.1. This doc goes through a step by step setup process, including screen shots, of how to get the SLA correctly configured to function with OPM.

The other helpful document I found last week dealing with this topic is a case study done by Satyam Computer Services which outlines a migration from MAC to SLA in R12 for an OPM company. You can also find this on metalink under Doc Id 562601.1.

Hopefully by the end of this week I'll be an expert on OPM and SLA.
