What are the
advantages/disadvantages of Forms Personalization when compared to CUSTOM.pll?
Advantages: Personalizations
are stored in tables rather than files Will not have a bigger impact when you
upgrade or apply patches to the environment Can be moved easily through FNDLOAD
from one instance to other Can be restricted at site/responsibility/user level
Easy to disable/enable with click of a button. Personalization will store who
columns with which we have the ability to track who created/modified it where
as in CUSTOM.PLL we don¿t have that ability. Disadvantages: Not all can be
customized using Personalization.
