Microsoft Office 2013 Certified with E-Business Suite 11i - admin - 08-05-2014

Latest news from Steven Chan blog on July 31, 2014:
Microsoft Office 2013 was previously certified with Oracle E-Business Suite
Releases 12.0.6
and 12.1.3.


Oracle are pleased to announce that Office 2013 is now certified with EBS
11.5.10.2. For details, see:

EBS 11.5.10.2 + Microsoft Office 2013 (32-bit)

Microsoft Office 2013 32-bit desktop version is certified for integration
with Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 for the following desktop client
operating systems:

  • Windows Vista 32-bit
  • Windows 7 32-bit & 64-bit
This certification covers Office 2013 in 32-bit mode only. There are no
plans to certify Office 2013 64-bit with EBS 11i.

What about EBS 12.2?

The certification of Microsoft Office 2013 32-bit and 64-bit for Oracle
E-Business Suite 12.2.x is still in progress.
When will the remaining
combination be certified?

Oracle's Revenue Recognition rules prohibit us from discussing certification
and release dates, but you're welcome to monitor or subscribe to this blog. I'll
post updates here as soon as soon as they're available.

How does the E-Business Suite work with Microsoft Office?

The
Oracle E-Business Suite is comprised of several product families such as
Financials, Supply Chain Management, Human Resources, and so on. These product
families group together collections of individual products. Some of these
products may be optionally integrated with one or more Microsoft Office
components such as Excel, Word, and Projects.

Individual E-Business Suite
product teams have the option of building integrations between their products
and one or more Microsoft Office components. This is not mandatory. Over forty
E-Business Suite teams offer these kinds of Office integrations
today.

Examples of these integrations include:

  • HRMS Payroll integrations with Microsoft Excel
  • Supply Chain Management Contracts Core integration with Microsoft Word
  • Financials General Ledger (GL) integration with Microsoft Excel
  • Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Proposals integration with Microsoft
    Word
  • Web Application Desktop Integrator (Web ADI)
  • Desktop Integration Framework
Which Office versions are
certified?


We will explicitly test the Office 2013 Professional
edition with Oracle E-Business Suite. We expect that the results of these
certification tests apply equally to the following desktop-installed
editions:
  • Home & Student 2013

  • Home & Business 2013
  • Standard 2013
  • Professional 2013

  • Professional Plus 2013
We do not currently plan to certify the
following editions with Oracle E-Business Suite:
  • SkyDrive-based documents
  • Office On Demand
  • Office Web Apps

  • Office 365
  • Office Home & Student RT
What about OpenOffice, StarOffice, LibreOffice?

We have no
plans to certify the E-Business Suite with versions of OpenOffice, StarOffice,
LibreOffice, or other equivalents.
