HIDING what this organisation does not use — the single highest-value change available, because a form with forty irrelevant fields is a form people fill in wrongly. RELABELLING so the screen uses the client's vocabulary rather than Oracle's. And ADDING SIMPLE FIELDS, which in practice means surfacing a flexfield you defined elsewhere. THE CHANGES THAT LOOK AVAILABLE AND ARE NOT are where an afternoon goes. Moving a field between regions that belong to different underlying structures. Changing the behaviour of a control rather than its appearance. Making a delivered required field optional, or the reverse. Restructuring a page into a layout the framework does not offer. The tell is that you are trying to change what the page DOES rather than what
