    The Oracle User Productivity Kit (UPK) is a comprehensive, cost-effective, customizable solution that helps organizations quickly create the critical documentation, training, and support materials they need to drive project team and user productivity throughout the lifecycle of your software. We have already presented this fantastic solution (in french) on this blog here.

    I have directed a short video in SWF format. It’s addressed to Oracle E-Business Suite customers, prospects and partners. The Content of the video (with sound!) is the following:

    • What’s UPK?
    • An example of UPK Content
    • How to download and install UPK Developer
    • How to create your first UPK content
    • How to integrate your first UPK content with Oracle E-Business Suite Help

    UPK provides content and software tools to capture and play back the exact steps a user would use to enter data in a formal business application. System transaction documentation, job aids, user acceptance test scripts, instructor led and online training, and online performance support are valuable content pieces that can all be created from one recording. As part of online training, users can use the simulation playback to be trained and tested on their understanding of how to complete activities that are part of their daily job.

      I just wrote a book on UPK, which you may find useful. It is called “Oracle User Productivity Kit 3.5″ and is available from packtpub.com or amazon.com (amongst other places). ISBN is 978-1849680165.

      Hope this helps (and apologies for the blatant ad: I’m just one UPK developer trying to share some knowledge and best practices). Dirk
