  • Profile Options
  • User-defined fields (Flexfield)
  • Function Security Setup
  • Data Security Setup
  • and a lot more….
Personalization enables you to declaratively tailor the UI look-and-feel, layout or visibility of page content to suit a business need or a user preference. Some personalization examples include:
  • Tailor the order in which table columns are displayed.
  • Tailor a query result.
  • Tailor the color scheme of the UI.
  • Folder Forms
  • Forms Personalization

Extensibility is about extending the functionality of an application beyond what can be done through personalization. Some extensibility examples include:
