Unit 2: Navigation
The Navigation Unit is highly recommended for all who request access to AIS. Navigation is the process of moving to a specific location within Oracle/AIS windows in order to accomplish a specific objective. It encompasses the following:
• Accessing and exiting the Administrative Information System (AIS).
• Selecting and displaying desired forms.
• Moving between windows within a form.
• Moving between fields within a window.
• Utilizing basic Oracle functionality.
A number of the Oracle Applications and several different Responsibilities will be used to demonstrate Navigation in AIS. You may or may not have access to all the applications and responsibilities used, but the functionality works the same, regardless the application or responsibility.
