Step 10. Select product license type

On the Suite Selection screen, the wizard prompts you to indicate the type of licensing agreement you have purchased from Oracle Applications. It then presents the appropriate licensing screen. Completing a licensing screen does not constitute a license agreement. It simply registers your products as active.

Rapid Install installs all products regardless of their licensed status. However, you must register products you have licensed so that they are flagged in the system as active. An active flag marks products for inclusion in patching and other tasks that you will perform to update and maintain your system after the initial installation. You can register products for either the E-Business Suite license model or the Component Applications license model. Complete only one licensing screen. If you clicked the E-Business Suite licensing option on the Suite Selection screen, the Licensing Page for that option appears.

This licensing model allows wide access to Applications functionality. By choosing it, you tell Rapid Install to automatically register all products included in the E-Business Suite price bundle. The products that are checked and grayed are licensed automatically as a part of the suite. The ones that are not must be registered separately as add-on products — they are not part of the E-Business Suite price bundle. Place a check mark next to any add-on products you have licensed and want to register. If you clicked the Component Applications licensing option on the Suite Selection screen, the Licensing Page for that option appears.

Choose this option if your’s licensing agreement is for individual Applications Component products. These products are licensed based on the number of authorized users or on the number of business transactions processed. All individual products are listed on this screen. Products that are grayed out cannot be selected unless the "parent" component is selected.

Complete the appropriate screen. Click Next to continue.

Step 11. Select country-specific functionality

Some systems require the country-specific functionality of a localized Applications product. For example, if your company operates in Canada, products such as Human Resources require additional features to accommodate the Canadian labor laws and codes that differ from those in the United States. You register the name of the region associated with the localized product on the Select Country-specific Functionalities screen.

If your company operates only in the US, you can bypass this screen. If you begin doing business in another country at a later date, you can register the associated region at any time after the initial installation or upgrade by using the OAM License Manager.

All the country-specific functionalities that Oracle supports are listed on this screen, arranged alphabetically. Double-click a region in the Available Regions box to move it into the Selected Regions box or highlight it and click the right arrow (>). To de-select a region, highlight it and double-click or click the left arrow (<) to remove it from the Selected Regions box. For example, if you select Canada, the screen would look like this.

To select or de-select all the regions and move them between boxes in a single action, use the double arrows. Click Next to continue.

Step 12. Select additional languages

American English is installed in your system by default. However, Oracle Applications supports numerous other languages. Use the Select Additional Languages screen to indicate the languages required for your system. You can select any number of languages to run in a single instance.

Prior to Release 11.5.9, the Rapid Install wizard registered additional languages as active - it did not actually install them. In this release, the language files will be installed in the APPL_TOP. The languages you select also determine other NLS-related configuration n parameters, such as base language, territory, and character set, your system requires.

Double-click a language in the Available Languages box to move it into the Selected Languages box or highlight it and click the right arrow (>). Highlight a language in the Selected Languages box and click the left arrow (<) to remove it. The example shows Canadian French selected as an additional language. To select or de-select all languages in a single action, use the double arrows. You cannot remove American English from the Selected Languages box.
