Go with the online documentation
After comparing a sample chapter of this book (chapter 5, Managing the Financials Environment) with the free "Maintaining Oracle Applications" PDF in the 11i documentation set, I must agree with most of the other reviewers here. Chapter 5 of this book parallels the PDF *very* closely -- except that the PDF has a more thorough treatment of the subject!

I had hoped that this book would provide extra, real-world, practical insights that went beyond the product documentation. It appears to do nothing of the kind. Looks like I'll be printing the PDF's on our high-speed laser printer and sticking them in a 3-ring binder....

Dont get into any tussle trying to get your hands on it.
First thought that this book was worht enough to get a copy of regardless of whatever means were used, but to my dissapointment the book turned out to be just another one of those also rans. 90 % Contents are from Oracle Applications Documentation.

Book Disappoints
It really does not discuss financials specific issues - a lot of it is discussing Oracle tuning etc.

No screen shots are available either .

Most topics are not covered in any depth- Ex Chapter on Open Interfaces mostly explains autonomous transactions, bulk binds and invokers rights - not really open interfaces
