iPhone is now definitely ready for enterprise and Oracle knows that. Hence the enterprise software maker has announced Oracle Business Approvals for Apple’s handset.
The application includes two Oracle’s apps — Oracle Business Approvals for Managers and Oracle Business Approvals for Sales Managers — that deliver “targeted and task-oriented information to help managers make informed decisions.” The first of the two applications enables managers to view pending actions related to expenses, purchase requisitions, as well as HR vacancies and job offers. On the other hand, Oracle Business Approvals for Sales Managers gives executives the power to evaluate and approve pending sales quotes from their iPhone.
Oracle Business Approvals applications consist of a native iPhone app and a connector, licensed on a per-user model from Oracle, which integrates with the ERP and CRM applications using Oracle SOA Suite and optional OBIEE technologies for scalability and deep integration. Secure mobile flexibility and performance are delivered via the SSL encryption protocol and Oracle’s Identity Management.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
