Explain Request Groups and Request Sets in Concurrent Programs?

Grouping concurrent programs and other requests together allows you to control access and streamline processing. In Oracle Applications, you group programs and requests into request groups and request sets.

Request Groups
A request group is a collection of reports and other concurrent programs. You use request groups to implement security at the responsibility level. Request groups are normally associated with a responsibility, in which case they are referred to as request security groups. Any user of a responsibility has access to the reports in that responsibility’s request security group. Additionally, you can define a request group to have an access code. You can then define the form so that it allows users to select only those reports or concurrent programs belonging to a request group with an assigned code.


Request Sets
A request set is a collection of concurrent programs set up to run in a specified sequence from a single transaction. Request sets can also have run and/or print options, which apply to everymember of the set. Programs in a request set can share parameters; therefore a parameter value needs to be entered only once for multiple programs. Any user can create a request set.
