As a service to the Oracle Applications community Doug Volz has led the Cost Management Group since 2007, helping folks more effectively use Oracle Cost Management and related product areas. In these monthly webinars Doug and other expert presenters give practical advice on using Oracle Cost Management, showcasing new products and collectively, helping each other do more with the Oracle Applications. Oracle Cost Development and Oracle Support also participate in these discussions and actively engage the Cost Management SIG for feedback on product features and directions.
