I would like to thank my parents, my wife Buaphan and three children, Sangrung, James, and Jack for their support. I would also like to thank my colleagues for their help in reviewing and commenting on the material in the book. I would also like to thank my fellow colleagues, and in particular, Brian Badenhorst, Phill Davey, Andy Collins, and Dermot Moloney who have all helped me in some way to produce this book.
About the Reviewers

She has gained thorough knowledge and rich experience supporting Oracle RDBMS (rel. 11g/10g/9i/8i/8/7/5) on a wide range of platforms: AIX, HP UX, Sun Solaris, Linux, Digital VMS, Windows, and also Oracle Applications environments (R11.5.10/11.5.9/11.5.8/11.5.3) including installation, implementations, upgrades, and system assessments.
Reuben Filius has worked in the IT industry since 1995. He has worked as a technical manager, technical team lead, analyst, auditor, and technical consultant/developer on a large number of (international) E-Business Suite projects. Reuben has experience in various market segments and can use business knowledge together with technical knowledge to enable him to build a much needed bridge between technology and business users and be a liaison for customer senior management levels.
Reuben has worked for Oracle Netherlands for nine years and six years in other consulting organizations specialized in Oracle E-Business Suite. In early 2011 Reuben started Distinct Consulting, a company that focuses on bringing more added value and more focus on business processes for customers using E-Business Suite, having the technology be a vehicle to support the business rather than it becoming the main focus.
