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.
