Excellent effort from you man. Keep it up.
I learnt a lot from users feedback and so will you in the due course. When I started this blog, I started writing papers on some complex solutions that I had implemented, without touching the basics. Then some readers demanded the basics, and obliged.
Hence my advice to you is, tell your readers in BOLD that their Feedback is important. Find out from your readers what are the hindrances that they face to get started. No one can guide you better than your own readers.
You are doing good work for a good cause, so keep it going !
Thanks

Also ideally you should install JDBC Driver 9.2.0.6 for increased stablity of OA Framework[See Metalink Note 164317.1]
There is a very comprehensive & dedicated Metalink Note 275874.1 [Oracle Application Framework Configuration Notes Release 11i (11.5.10)]. This Metalink Note contains all the pre-reqs, interoperability patches & config steps.

The form function name is WF_ADMIN_NOTIFICATIONS
however, to know the MDS document, you can click on Personalize to get the path
Scope Page: /oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/webui/AdminNotificationsPG
Document Name /oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/webui/AdminNotificationsPG
vi $FND_TOP/mds/wf/worklist/webui/AdminNotificationsPG.xml
Here you will see that
^M
Now, you need to go to Java Top to find your classes & XML in below locations
Your Application Module is in
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/server/NotificationsAM.xml
Your controller class is
$JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/webui/NotificationsPageCO.class
You should extend and not customize your OA Framework.
You should be able to FTP all these OAF files to jDev and work directly from jDev

Hi Sri,
Indeed there is no Key Flex on po_headers.
There is no reason that I am aware of I am afraid.
I think this is legacy, during very earlier versions of Oracle Financials, they might have decided to allow KeyFlexfield, to capture Organization Name, PO Type etc as a part of PO-Number itself. Thereafter, Oracle created Composite Unique index on Segment1[po-number],org_id & type_lookup_code. Hence they decided to backtrack from a KFF on PO-Number....
Above is not a statement of facts, but merely my understanding.
THanks,
Anil Passi

Hi Santhos
Indeed you can, but not all reports will work out of the box when switched to XML Publisher.
I think format triggers do not get executed when concurrent manager runs a rdf file for XML output. Understandably oracle expects you to define your formatting inside XML Publisher itself.

Hi Santosh,
I vaguely remember that you will need to create a summary column for page number, reset at appropriate level, and then use format trigger to hid/display.
Its been six year since I did any professional work on developing reports. Hence my statement may not be accurate.

For example, consider from customer placing an order, and finally ending with collecting the payements, receipts,invoice etc.,...Also, what kind of information is stored in what tables and what columns. What are the mostl frequently used tables and columns that are being used. If you can explain with a real time scenario, that would be very useful.

Hi Shell,
You need to become a good Oracle Apps consultant, regardless of TEchnical or Functional Consultant.
I suggest, you pick up a module of your choice, and try to run end to end process. For example from Payables invoice, to invoice payment batches, Accounting, transfer to GL, posting to GL, and seeing those entries in GL balances.
This is just an example. Next you can expand the scope of your steps, and start from purchasing requisition, to approval, to Purchase Order to its receipt and then transferring all to GL. Next you can create an invoice and match the same to Purchasing.
I am trying to say, first step, UNDERSTAND HOW THE ORACLE APPS SYSTEM WORKS.
Once you have done so, then you can take the next step by setting up a new GL Set of Book, new Multi Org Organizations, new responsibility, new setup for that Org and GL SOB. And then setup module specific entities. Once you have done your own setup, try running end to end process again on your config data.
All this is hard work, but so goes life.
Thanks,
Anil Passi

Regular but unauthorized users are trying to sign-on using these generic ids by guessing the password and end up locking them when they exceed sign-on attempts. Is it possible to trace these unauthorized users? (via ip add***s or terminal id?) (We are on 11.5.

User,
Are you changing the value of any database field in Post-Query? If so, you need to use set the record back to Status_query [immediately after assigning values in post-query]. Use set_record_property for this purpose, and use :system.trigger_record for the current record being referenced in post-query

Like many others I am an Oracle developer trying to get in to apps, for that your site is great help. I am sort of trying to get back door entry into apps, as there is not really need for another apps developer in our team. So I am writing Business Objects reports against OLM.
So now question I have is - on a self service screen how to find what table is getting used. E.g. under learning administrator (OLM) if I am creating a new category how can I find out in which table data is going? Is there any thing similar to forms based screen like Record History for Self service page?

Akash,
In answer to your question, you should set the Diagnostics profile to Yes, following which you will find a link named About This Page. When you click on this link, you will see the view object name on which the screen is based. Open the VO file either in jDev or in $JAVA_TOP xml to see the SQL Query used. Please note the VO where clause might be modified with additional conditions in the processRequest of the controller.

The best way to approach the market is to be prepared for most possible skillsets, that which are commonly used in most projects.
Examples are:-
1. Interfaces using API and interface tables
2. Concurrent programs of type pl/sql to create processes
3. Workflow modifications and creating Workflows from scratch
4. CUSTOM.pll
5. Forms Personalizations
6. Self Service personalizations and framework concepts
7. some data migration examples
8. workflow business events
If you can try couple of in each of the categories, then I can say you are prepared for it. It might take you long time to get the job, but then it also means you get long time to learn and experiment these things.
also, look at forums.oracle.com and see the kind of questions people are raising there, its a nice place to learn about practical problems that people face and also their resolution. so do as much reading as possible on the forum
good luck

The valueset name used will depend upon how you wish to validate the parameter selection values.
In case, you want to restrict your user to enter either Yes[Y] or No[N] into a parameter, then the value set attached will be FND_YES_NO

I am using your blog since quite a long time for my knowledge upgradation.
I am working in oracle apps since then 3 years,
Though most of the people i know work in different implementation projects but i have doubt that how a new company which is planning to implement ERP will freeze a particular ERP package i.e whether company should go for oracle apps or SAP, I have never worked in SAP but I suppose that 80-90 % processes of any discreet manufacturing industry can be mapped in either SAP or Oracle apps therefore only thing of prime importance left is money.
How is the cost comparison done of different ERP packages, The cost of implementing any ERP package includes One time & repetitive cost, One time cost is the initial cost incurred in implementation, training etc. Repetitive cost is the license fees, fee for future customizations etc.
Can u suggest me any resource where i can get a detailed idea for parameters of cost comparison for different ERP's.

Please refer to the explanation below:

eselecting a line on Autocreate Form through CUSTOM.pll I have written code to customize the Autocreate form. In this form only the valid lines (validity is checked based on certain conditions) should get selected when I check the checkbox corresponding the requisition line.
For deselecting the line I have written the code:
if (invalidity_condition is TRUE for a line) then
copy('N', 'REQ_LINES.SELECT_LINE');
end if;
But through this code only the checkbox is deselected and not the lines.
The lines remains selected because it remains highlighted in yellow color. Also when I press Autocreate button these lines appear on Purchase Order form.

written by janarthanan , November 16, 2007
you can use the API, PO_CHANGE_API1_S.update_po for updating the quantity and price alone.
And for cancelling the PO, you can use PO_Document_Control_PUB.control_document

thanks for providing useful materials.
i developed a form, o/p shd display empno,ename.

first i have created record grp manually as below:
ITEM:Empno
TRIGGER:When-New-Item-Instance
declare

rg_id recordgroup;
errcode number;
begin

if id_null(rg_id) then
rg_id:=create_group_from_query (rg_name,'select empno from emp');
end if;
ERRCODE:=POPULATE_GROUP (RG_ID);
end;
next i created lov at design time(option:manually)name:lov8.
(i didn't change any property)becouse i'm setting recgrp to lov using set_lov_property
in same above code i changed as
declare
lov_result boolean;
rg_name varchar2(30):='XRECGRP';
rg_id recordgroup;
errcode number;
begin
rg_id:=find_group(rg_name);
if id_null(rg_id) then

I was searching for some info on Shipping execution APIs .
Our company is now working with a logistics system to deliver our finished goods to the customers. So the logistics system will be acting as a warhouse where they would store our finished goods and ship them on demand.
In this process, when they ship the goods, all shipping information will be taken care of by their custom application. They will just send an ASN which holds the shipping info and they want us to send the ASNs to the customers in the customer specific format.
So in the above step, while theysend the ASN, we would like to load all that data into our Oracle ERP using the shipping execution APIs. I would like to know on how this can be implemented.how should I run the APIs , and how can I run all these shipping APIs as as a set and what is the process flow to use each API in this case? I mean in what order these APIs must be run?
Could you please put some light into this?

The lov on supplier name field (QF_VENDORS_BY_NAME) currently has 4 columns(supplier name, number, taxpayerId and tax registration number)
I want to add a new column Inactive on Date.
I tried to doing the following
1.Create record group from query
select vendor_name,segment1,num_1099, vat_registration_num,vendor_id, end_active_date from po_vendors order by upper(vendor_name)
2.Attached new record group to LOV
Now I get an error FRM-41826: cannot replace group; columns don’t match lov.
I modified the query and followed the same steps
1.Create record group from query
select vendor_name,segment1,num_1099, to_char(end_date_active, 'DD-MON-YYYY') vat_registration_num,vendor_id, from po_vendors order by upper(vendor_name)
2.Attached new record group to LOV
Now the LOV looks like this
Supplier NameNumberTaxpayerIDTaxRegistrationNum
Abc12345612-Apr-2005
Xyz88755621-Dec-2002
Questions:
Is there any way I can add an extra column to the LOV using FP?
Is there any way I can change the heading of the existing column (in this case TaxRegistrationNum to InactiveOn)?
Thank you,
Venkat.

I am posting to this section since I can not post to the appropriate blog. My apologies.
Hopefully, you can help me come up with a solution for a problem I'm having. I am trying to create a menu item that 'refreshes' NOTE_BALI.NOTE_BST, the grid under the Note tab on the eBusiness Center form (ASTRCALL). I thought that JTF_GRID.REFRESH('NOTE_BALI.NOTE_BST') would be the appropriate BuiltIn (built in Type Call Custom Library) to use for the menu. I put the "JTF..." procedure as the argument, and this does not work. I also tried using 'Execute a Procedure' instead, but this also did not work.
After failing with using BuiltIn, I tried using the Property type instead of BuiltIn type. My plan was to use two steps: first clear the grid, and then repopulate it. I wanted to see if there was a way I could just set the value of NOTE_BALI.NOTE_BST to NULL, but this did not clear the grid.
This is proving to be very difficult for me, and any advice on this would be appreciated.
written by Amit Goel , July 04, 2008
this is really cool stuff.
Thanks,
Amit
written by Richard D. Chisnick , October 01, 2008
First thing to know - the requirement was to toggle a filter on NOTE_BALI.NOTE_BST. The filter displays only one type of Note. So, I was never supposed to clear this grid. Without looking at the details of the JTF_GRID package, I would imagine there is a simple function there that would do this should you require it.
Elements:
1) 2 menu items that get created on the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger. "Show -specific- notes only" and "Clear -specific- notes filter". I set up two lines in the personalization for these menu items. Each used an Action type of Menu. I used menu entries Special12 and Special14. This was the "shell" of the solution, and the easy part.
2) Here was the tricky part: I edited CUSTOM.pll, adding these two IF statements within the humongous "event" procedure:
-- show specific notes only

The material which u have are really amazing and very useful to many oracle guys.
I have an issue.
We designed many custom forms and in that when two users try to update a single record the screen gets locked for the second user and the system just hangs.
I have not noticed this kind of a behaviour in any of the apps standard forms.
I am creating the block based on the table.But I have seen in standard forms the blocks are based on views.
Will this problem go away if the datablock is created based on a view.
Please advice.
Thanks

One quick way is to open a CURSOR with FOR UPDATE CLAUSE with the WHERE CLAUSE containing a condition to identify the current record via :block.primary_key field.
cursor c1 is select * from po_headers_all where po_header_id = :po_block.po_header_id for update of po_header_id;
Next-open and immediately close the cursor.
If the record was to be locked by some other user, then you will get a LOCK error straightaway
Another option is the lock error with re-try option, as per standard screens. For that option copy paste the code from ON-LOCK trigger of a standard screen

I have actually created a pl/sql program and submitted the fndload program using fnd_request.submit_request.
The program completes successfully and the log file says the ldt file has been created,
But I have checked for the file in the corresponding location the file is not present.
I tried to create the ldt file using the standard method from unix box(ie from Putty) it is getting created .
It would be of a great help if you can suggest something on troubleshooting on this problem.

I am trying to customize the LOV of PAyments Window in Oracle Payables.
I have personalized this form by first using a built-in "Create Record Group from Query"
and then I have attached my Custom Record Group (XXCS_OBJECT_CODE_RG) to the standard LOV.
When I click "Apply Now" I receive the error:
"FRM-41826: Cannot replace group, columns don;t match LOV"
Initially I was using standard Record Group Query and put a condition in the end but it was also not running and
generating the error:
"FRM-40502: Unable to read list of Values"
Later on I decided to write my own custom query. Now I am getting the above mentioned error.
Please help.

When you create a custom record group via personalization, you must ensure the following
1. Number of selectable columns is exactly the same as the record group being replaced
2. Name of selectable columns is exactly the same as the record group being replaced
3. Data type of selectable columns is exactly the same as the record group being replaced
