What is Applsys Schema?

 Applsys schema contains all the tables required for administarative purpose. The default password is apps. All the technical products’ database objects are consolidated into a single schema called Applsys

What is Applsyspub schema?

 Applsyspub schema is responsible for password checking.The default password is pub.Applsyspub is used for authentication by having read only views.

Why should Apps & Applsys passwords always be the same?

The need to have the same password for Apps and Applsys is because when you sign on to apps, intially it connects to a public schema called APPLSYSPUB. This validates AOL username and password that we enter (operations/welcome using guest user account. Once this is verified we select responsibility, this is validated by APPLSYS schema and then it connects to APPS schema.
