Context
Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 was first released in September 2013. It introduced Online Patching to help customers ensure the continuous operation of their key business processes. The underlying technology stack was also overhauled and supplemented with Oracle Fusion Middleware. As a result, all standard and custom objects (customizations) need to undergo numerous code changes to ensure compliance with 12.2 and above. While Oracle provides a standard utility for remediating and migrating standard objects, the utility does not apply to any nonstandard (custom) objects. As a result, customers must make manually remediate and migrate all custom objects to their target R12.2 instance.
