The number of Oracle users is immaterial when you are talking about =
licensing. The metric is the number of physical users (or automated =
applications, the rules here get interesting). The metric also does not =
consider simultaneous users, every user that can access the system must =
be licensed. If there are 10 employees that need to use an application =
at some point, whether they connect as a single Oracle user or 10 Oracle =
users, regardless of how many are actually using the application at the =
same time, you need 10 named user licenses (or you can get CPU license =
for the server and allow an unlimited number of users).
http://store.oracle.com is down at the moment, but it has a good =
explanation of the licensing terms.

Is this 5 users exclude/include sys and system. ?
We are actually planning to design the application to use a single user.
This is going to be like APPS user in oracle applications, rest of the =
users going to be like other product users (gl, ar, ap. .... etc.)

There generally won't be a technical limit, but you may violate your =3D =
licensing agreement. 5 users is 5 named users (or applications), not 5 =
=3D Oracle users. If each physical database user has 2 simultaneous =3D =
sessions, 5 named users could have 10 concurrent sessions, but that =3D =
would seem to be an odd design.
