Is Install Of FPI Patchsets for TCA and HR Required For iSupplier Portal Release 12.1?

APPLIES TO:

Oracle iSupplier Portal - Version: 12.1 to 12.1.2 - Release: 12.1 to 12.1
Information in this document applies to any platform.
GOAL

The implementation guide for Release 12.1 iSupplier Portal mentions installing TCA and HR patches for Patchset FPI.  Is this required?

Specifically for these documents:

Oracle� iSupplier Portal Implementation Guide Release 12.1 Part No. B31600-03 April 2009
Oracle� iSupplier Portal Implementation Guide Release 12.1 Part No. E16345-01 December 2009,

In Chapter 4,  under  section "Implementing Prospective Vendor Registration (Optional)"  on page 4-18 it states:


Step 1: Install FPI Patchset (Required)

To implement the Prospective Vendor Registration feature, you must first apply the
TCA and HR patches for FPI.



SOLUTION


This is a documentation Bug:

Bug 9394316 - INSTALL FPI PATCHSET STILL IN 12.1.2 DOCUMENTATION

The 'FPI' references 'Procurement Family Pack I' which is seeded with Release 11.5.9.

The TCA and HR patches are likely to have been superseded and already applied as part of Release 12 installation, so this step can be ignored
