In Oracle Planning 2024 Implementation, Forms 2.0 represents an enhanced version of the form design and functionality framework compared to Forms 1.0. To develop forecasts using Forms 2.0, existing forms must be transitioned from the older version to the newer one, as they are not automatically compatible or universally enabled.
D. Migrate the forms you want to work with in Forms 2.0 from Forms 1.0 to Forms 2.0: This is the correct statement. Oracle provides a migration process to convert Forms 1.0 forms to Forms 2.0, enabling users to leverage the advanced features of Forms 2.0 (e.g., improved navigation, dynamic rows/columns, and enhanced usability). This migration is selective, meaning only the forms you choose to use with Forms 2.0 need to be migrated, and it is not a one-time global setup.
A. Set up Forms 2.0 in your environment one time and it will work with all your applications: Forms 2.0 is not a one-time environment-wide setup. It requires specific forms to be migrated or designed for Forms 2.0 compatibility, and not all applications automatically adopt it.
B. Switch between Forms 1.0 and Forms 2.0 by selecting the Forms Version in Application Settings: There is no such toggle in Application Settings to switch between Forms 1.0 and Forms 2.0. The transition to Forms 2.0 involves migration rather than a simple version switch.
C. Redesign forms 1.0 forms so that they are set up to work with Forms 2.0: While redesigning is an option for creating new Forms 2.0-compatible forms, the standard process for existing forms is migration, not a complete redesign from scratch. Migration preserves the form structure while adapting it to Forms 2.0.
The migration process ensures that users can take advantage of Forms 2.0’s capabilities while maintaining continuity with existing form designs, aligning with Oracle’s recommended approach.
