Types of Customization

Oracle BPM WorkSpace supports different types of customizations. Depending on your needs you may need to apply all of them or just a subset that fulfills your requirements.

The following list shows the available types of customizations:

Look and Feel Customization

You can change the color scheme, fonts, icons and messages Oracle BPM WorkSpace uses. This is the most basic type of customization. Typically it will satisfy your requirements.

To customize color schemes and fonts you have to define your own Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). To change icons, labels and text messages you have to create a properties file and configure Oracle BPM WorkSpace to use it.

Layout Customization
