1) Development of New ERP : It may be developed by using software such as C, C++, Java, .Net, Oracle and etc. Development of new ERP involves high risk i.e complete SDLC is to be followed. It Involves Complete SDLC such as 1)Gathering Specs, 2) System Analysis 3) Designing 4) Architecture 5) Development 6) Testing 7) Sign Off Disadvantage in Development of New ERP 1) Time taken ( long time ) 2) Project Cost is an expensive 3) Vendor Dependent ( Supplier )
4) Weather it may be succeeded or failed

5) Lot of Resources are required 6) Enhancement of the project 7) Chance of raising lot of Bugs. 8) Not is to maintain the project. 2) Existing ERP Eg : Oracle Apps and SAP Oracle Apps from the Oracle Corp. SAP form SAP Labs Development is not necessary. Simply purchasing, Simple modifications ( Customization ), Enhancement and Implementation Advantages 1) Time will be reduced 2) Minimization of Cost. 3) Vendor independent. 4) Already Successfully implemented. 5) Much enhancements and modifications not necessary 6) Enhancement and Maintenance will be look after by the Supplier ( vendor) 7) Minimization of Resources. With an existing ERPs 60 to 70 % of time will be reduced. Only 30 to 40 % modifications are required to implement the existing ERP. Generally any industry will spend only 10% of their turnover on the software. Hence clients will prefer the exiting ERPs.
Existing ERPs in the Market
1) SAP 2) Oracle Apps, 3) Seibel 4) People Soft 5) JD Edwards 6) Baan

SAP Best suitable for Manufacturing Oracle Apps Best suitable for Financials SEIBEL Best suitable for CRM ( Customer Relationship Management ) People Soft Best suitable for HRMS ( Human Resources Management System ) JD Edwards Best suitable for Manufacturing, Operations and Sales. Baan Best suitable for Manufacturing Recently the ERPs such as SEIBEL, People Soft, and JD Edwards were adapted by the ORACLE Corp and Developed as Oracle Fusion. Hence with oracle apps we can handle the Financials, CRM, HRMS and Manufacturing Comparison between SAP and Oracle Apps SAP 1) SAP is suitable for Manufacturing Modules 2) SAP uses the Oracle database and uses the Sun Soft servers. 3) Client has to depend on the No.of Vendors 4) Implementation cost is more 5) Resources expensive 6) Only Large Scale industries can afford 7) Not Easy to develop and maintain the applications 8) It is an old ERP and having no. of customers ORACLE APPS 1) ORACLE APPS suitable for Financials, CRM, HRMS 2) Its Own Data base. Since Sun micro system has been taken over by Oracle Corp, Sun servers can be used directly. 3) Oracle Corp is responsible for all and need not to depend on No.of vendors. 4) Implementation cost is less 5) Resources are economic 6) Small Scale Industries can also afford 7)Easy to develop and maintain the applications 8) New ERP having less No.of customers.

1) Installation Process : Installation stages are four 1) development 2) testing 3) production and 4) Quality.
When A form or a report is moving form one instance to other instance, after it has been developed, its all associated components are also to be moved. It will be done by the DBA.
2) Execution Process: It will be developed by the Technical Consultant. It has to be developed by specifying
the logic implemented and functionality of an application. CR Document : It tells about the request made by the client, It could be minor changes such as some fields are to be added / deleted to the existing form or may be deletion of procedure. To implement any Oracle ERP the following Human Resources are required.
1) DBA ( Database Administrator )

2) Functional Consultant 3) Technical Consultant The ratio between Functional Consultant and Technical Consultant is 1 : 4 The No.of DBAs depends the servers using in the Application development. Role of Data Base Administrator
1) Installing the oracle Application

2) Define the securities 3) Provide the user access to the front end and back end of the application 4) Database Support/ cleaning / back ups
5) Applying patches ( Scripts ) Scripts are provided by the Oracle Corporation Eg: bug fixing, additional support. ( www.metalinks.oracle.com is a contact site to fix the bugs )
6) Define multiple instances ( Development, Testing, Quality, Production ( client test ) )

Role of Functional consultant 1) Interaction with the client 2) Gathering specs from the client for development / customization 3) Should explain about the product to the client Ex: Financial, Manufacturing, CRM, HRMS. As is document present feature of the product To be document the features, which will be implemented in the future 4) Testing of the product Functional consultant is the real tester for the ERP applications Should not be tested by using automation tools. It is a purely manual testing. 5) Define the setups Ex: report generation ( inr India, Dollar US ) 6) Preparation of Functional Design Document While interacting with the client, if task is concerned to DBA, then he should introduce the DBA to the client, if task is concerned to Technical Consultant, then he should introduce the Technical Consultant to the client, Function consultant must have following skills
a) Expertise in Domino knowledge ( field working )

b) High communication skills c) Presentation skills d) Documentation skills e) Leader ship quality f) Interaction with new people Role of Technical Consultant 1) Receives the document ( FDD ) form the Functional consultant 2) Should go through the document thoroughly 3) Analyze the FDD
4) Prepare the Technical Design Document ( TDD ) Ex : Tables, procedures, Forms, Reports, SQL Queries, PL/SQL Coding, Logic and functionality of particular module These document are :Procedure / Function level, 2) From Level, 3) Report Level, 4) Unit Level 5) Module Level 5) Project level. 5) Development of Components / Objects 6) Testing the Components / Objects 7) Deliver the object to Testing Department 8) Support the testers 9) Interaction with DBA, Functional Consultant and some times with client. Types of Objects used in the Oracle Apps The objects/components, which are involved in Oracle apps are 1) RICE Components and 2) Functional Components RICE Components are

Oracle Applications architecture

Oracle Applications architecture is a framework for multi-tiered, distributed computing, that supports Oracle Applications products. In this model, various services are distributed among multiple levels, or tiers.

SERVICE
14
A Service is a process or group of processes running on a single machine that provides a particular functionality. The HTTP service, for example, is a process that listens for and processes HTTP requests, and the Forms service is a process that listens for and processes requests for Oracle Forms.
TIER A tier is a grouping of services, potentially across physical machines. desktop tier, which provides the user interface display. Only the presentation layer of Oracle Applications is on the desktop tier in the form of a plug-in to a standard Internet browser. The application tier, which manages Oracle Applications and other tools; The tiers that, manages the Oracle database is a Database-Tier;
Clients are generally windows Application and Data base on Linux/Sun Solaris
15
The Desktop Tier

The client interface is provided through HTML for the Self-Service interface, and a Java applet for the professional, forms-based interface using a Java-enabled Web browser. The desktop client with Oracle JInitiator downloads the applet on demand and the applet is cached locally for future use.
Forms Client Applet

The forms client applet is a general-purpose presentation applet that supports all Oracle Applications forms-based products, including those with customizations and extensions. The Forms client applet is packaged as Java archive (JAR) files. The JAR files contain all Java classes required to run the presentation layer of Oracle Applications forms. The Forms client applet and commonly used JAR files are downloaded from the Web server at the beginning of the clients first session. Other less commonly used JAR files are downloaded as needed. The JAR files remain in the disk cache on the desktop, ready for future sessions, minimizing network traffic. All updates are installed on the application tier and downloaded to the client automatically through the use of the JInitiatorenabled Web browser.
Oracle JInitiator
16
The forms client applet must run within a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) on the desktop. For Oracle Applications, the JVM is supplied by Oracle JInitiator. Oracle JInitiator works in conjunction with the Web browser. It is implemented on the desktop client as a plug-in (Netscape Communicator/ Mozilla Browser) or ActiveX component (Microsoft Internet Explorer). When a user enters the desired Oracle Applications signon URL within the Web browser, Oracle JInitiator is executed. If Oracle JInitiator has not been installed, the Web browser prompts the user to download the necessary installation executable to the desktop client. Once installed, Oracle JInitiator runs the Forms client applet and starts an Oracle Applications session.
The Application Tier

The application tier hosts the servers that process the business logic and provides the communication between the desktop tier and the database tier. This tier is also referred to as the middle tier. Oracle 9i Application Server (9iAS) provides the technology stack used on the application tier. Six servers comprise the application tier for Oracle Applications: Web server Forms server Concurrent Processing server Reports server Discoverer server Admin server
Load Balancing
The application tier supports load balancing among many of its servers to provide higher availability, fault tolerance, reliability, and optimal scalability. Load balancing occurs when there are multiple installations of the following: Web server Forms server Reports server Concurrent Processing server Discoverer server
The Database Tier

The database tier contains the database server, which stores all the data maintained by Oracle Applications. It also contains some processing code that is stored in the database to optimize performance. In Release 11i, the
17
database includes the Oracle Applications online help information as well. More specifically, the database tier contains the Oracle data server files and Oracle Applications database executables that physically store the tables, indexes, and other database objects for your system. In general, the database server does not communicate directly with the desktop clients, but rather with the servers on the application tier, which mediate the communications between the database server and the client.

Applications Directory and File Types Subdirectory Name Forms
Description Contains Oracle Forms generated runtime (.fmx) files (Oracle Forms form files). Contains Oracle Reports .rdf files for each product, which are platform-specific binary report files. Reports for each language are stored in subdirectories of the reports directory.
Reports
Sql
Contains SQL*Plus scripts used to upgrade data, and .pkh, .pkb, and .pls scripts to create PL/SQL stored procedures.
Plsql
Location where .pll files (PL/SQL library files for Oracle Reports) are unloaded, later in the installation they are moved to the plsql subdirectory in the AU_TOP directory. Contains output files for concurrent programs: .mgr (master log file for concurrent manager)
log and out
.req (log file for a concurrent process) Note: Log and out subdirectories under a product directory are not used if you set up a common directory for log and output files (except in FND_TOP).
Forms display messages at the bottom of the screen and in popup boxes. Concurrent programs also Mesg print messages in the log and output files. These messages are translated and stored in message files separate from the forms and concurrent programs. This directory contains the .msb files (binary message files used at runtime), and language-specific message files (such as a US.msb file for American English and a D.msb file for German.) PROD_TOP/admin contains files used by Auto Upgrade to upgrade each product. Note that this Admin directory is not the APPL_TOP/admin directory. The APPL_TOP/admin directory contains upgraderelated files for all products. This PROD_TOP/admin directory contains product-specific upgrade files. Bin Driver Contains concurrent program Contains .drv files (driver files). Auto Upgrade processes in several phases, and each phase is controlled by a driver file.
20
Import
Contains DataMerge files used to upgrade seed data. Contains object description files (.odf files) used to create tables and other database objects.
Odf
Help Html
Contains the online help source files. Within this directory are subdirectories for each language you choose to install. HTML, Javascript, and Java Serve Page files, primarily for Self-Service Applications products. Contains C language header (.h) files that my be linked with files in the lib directory. Not all products require this directory. Contains files used to relink concurrent programs with the Oracle server libraries. These files include:
Include
Lib
object files (.o) with compiled code specific to one of the products programs; a library file (.a) with compiled code common to the products programs; a makefile (.mk) that specifies how to link executables. Contains JAR files (Java Archive files) and Java dependency files. Copies of JAR files are also located in JAVA_TOP. The desktop client displays text and graphics from the .gif files in this directory.
Java
Media
Patch resource Custom Top :
Updates to the data or data model use this directory to store the patch files. Contains .pll files (PL/SQL library files for Oracle Forms), which, like the plsql directory files, are later copied to AU_TOP. This module is to support customer new requirements other than provided by oracle Corp. Custom Top is used
to create the customer ( client ) own forms / reports / or other data base objects as per the requirement of the customer. It will be created by the customer. DBA is the responsible to create this module. At least on custom top is required for every client. Multiple custom tops can also be created as per the demand. Client need not to develop the modules such AP, PO, INV, AR, GL and etc. These will be provide by the oracle corp. If any customer developed the database objects like forms/reports/ or any other objects inside the modules provided by the Oracle Corp., these will be over written when the patches are applied to the oracle application.
21
Custom Top module can be uploaded and down loaded from the server where as other modules can only be down loaded from the server but can not be uploaded to the server. US folder : This folder is a language specific. Default language is American English. Regional languages such as Japanese, German, Hindi, Chinese and etc can be used for better under standing of the end users. This folder is applicable only for Forms and Reports as they contain G.U.I components. To display the available languages use the following query. Select * from FND_LANGUAGES Select * from FND_LANGUAGES where installed_flag in (B, D); B Base languages, D Disabled languages, I Installed languages. 11.5.0 folder : It depends version of Oracle Application. Functional consultant must have the clear idea about the version of the Oracle Application and its features Most of the applications are being developed with 11.5.0 and R-12.

The basic things which are required in development of Oracle apps 1) Schema Schema 2) Synonym
22
Schema is an area in the oracle database, where we can create database objects. One schema or more than one schema can be created in one database as per the client requirement. Schema contains database objects such as Tables, procedures, functions, triggers, views, indexes, synonyms, packages. One schema is required for every module. Synonym is an alternative name for any database object. If any user logged into any schema he can access concerned objects only. He can not have the access to other schema objects. To other schemas user must have privileges. Eg: There are two schemas called X and Y . if user logged into schema X then he can access the objects of schema X only . He can not have the access to Schema Y. If user wants access the Schema Y, then user must be granted permissions by the Schema Y. There is no integration between schemas. To integrate the all schemas in a database oracle provides Apps Schema. APPS schema: Oracle provides Apps Schema, which enable the user to access all schemas in a database. Apps schema integrate all the schemas in a database. The APPS schema has access to the complete Oracle E-Business Suite datamodel. It is analogous to the SYSTEM schema, which has access to the entire database. Oracle Applications responsibilities connect to an APPS schema and the environment variable FNDNAM is set to the name of the APPS schema. APPS schema contains only synonyms to the database objects in other schemas. Every object in the base product schema will have a synonym in the APPS schema.
APPS and Base Product Schemas

There is one schema for each producta base product schemathat owns the data objects for that product. There is one schemaAPPSthat owns all the code objects for the E-Business Suite and has access to all data objects.
23
There is one APPS schema for every product installation group. The following code objects are installed in the APPS schema: Views Packages Procedures Functions Triggers The following objects are installed in the base product schemas: Tables Sequences Indexes Constraints In addition, there are grants from the tables and sequences to the APPS schema, as well as synonyms from the APPS schema to those objects. Integration of base product schema by using APPS schema
PO Schem a AP Schem a Apps Schem a
INV Schem a

Employee details will be Cheque obtained from emp table ( HRMS schema )
details

be
inventory table ( Inventory Schema )
obtained form cheque table ( A.P Schema )
( P.O Shcema )
We have to select the data from four tables. Apps Schema provides corresponding synonym for every table in other Schemas, so as to enable the user to access the data from tables of different schemas. Eg: A.P Schema is having 50 objects P.O Schema is having 100 objects INV schema is having 100 objects A.R Schema is having 50 objects HRMS Schema is having 100 objects Then apps Schema will maintain 350 ( A.P + P.O + INV + A.R + HRMS ) synonyms. For convenient name of the synonym and database object will be the same. Select * form emp, item, supplier where emp, item, supplier are synonyms available in the Apps Schema Emp HRMS.emp, item INV.item, supplierPO.supplier ,
Difference between Apps Schema and base product schemas Apps Schema 1) It will not maintain any data 2) only synonyms and few of Multi Org views 3) User will always be connected to Apps schema 4) Apps is having grants to other schemas Base Product Schemas 1) It will maintain data in the form of tables 2) all Database Objects 3) User will never be connected. Some times may be connected to particular schema only. 4) Do not have the grants.
In development of oracle applications, we use 95 % DML and TCL commands and 5 % DDL commands.
25
If customer want to add own custom schema, then we have create the custom schema and grant the privileges to Apps schema. It is a job of DBA. The Technical consultant must have idea of all important tables, which are used in the application. Connection to Apps Schema User id : apps Password : apps SID : vis Sql > conn apps/apps@vis Sql > select count (*) from tab; 62561 Sql > conn po/po@vis; Sql > select count (*) from tab; 124 Sql > conn ap/ap@vis; Sql > select count (*) from tab; 213 Sql> desc AP_CHECKS_ALL; Sql> conn apps/apps@vis Sql> desc AP_CHECKS_ALL; Utilities used in the development of Oracle Application are 1) TOAD 2) FTP 3) Win SCP

Once the above programs have been transferred to oracle application, then these are called as concurrent programs. concurrent program : Instance of executable file along with input parameters and incompatible programs. Development of sample report and Move to oracle apps and execution
Report Registration Steps: 1) Develop the report (.rdf) as per client requirement by using Reports 6i Builder 2) Move the report from the local machine in to the server a. CUS_TOP\11.5.0\reports\US .rdf (or) b. PO_TOP\11.5.0\reports\US .rdf 3) Select System Administrator a. Create Executable b. Executable name c. Application Name d. Execution Method e. Report (.rdf) file name 4) Create Concurrent Program and attach a. Executable b. Parameters c. Incompatibilities 5) Create Request group and attach Concurrent Programe 6) Create Responsibility a. Request Group Collection of Concurrent Programs b. Data Group Collection of User IDs c. Menu Collection of forms 7) Create user attach Responsibility to the user 8) Switch responsibility and go to SRS (Standard Request Submission) window submit the request Executable => Concurrent Program => Request Group => User=> SRS
Development and execution of Sample Report Requirement : First Page : Users Information Report Second Page : UserId Last Page : Total No.of Users : 2836 UserName CreationDate
33
Step 1 : Develop the report using report builder 1) Data Model : Query : SELECT USER_ID, USER_NAME, CREATION_DATE FROM FND_USER Summary Column for total no of users 2 ) Layout Model Header Section Main Section Trailer Section 3) Save and test it ( eg : saved as C:\MyApps\user.rdf )
STEP 2 : Move the report from Local machine into Server
D:\oracle \VIS \apps \apps_st \appl \po \12.0.0 \reports \US

Different Types of Tables in Oracle Apps 1) Interface Tables 2) Base Tables 1) Global Tables 2) Org Specific Tables 3) Language Specific Tables Interface Tables : These are intermediate tables between apps base tables and external tables. Oracle Program is used to transfer data from other tables to Apps Interface tables. Apps interface program is used to transfer data from Interface tables to Base tables.
46
Eg: AP_INVOICE_HEADER_INTERFACE AP_INVOICE_LINES_INTERFACE Base Tables : These are actual tables where the data will be stored. These tables will not be updated from the back end . A from is dependent on one or more tables. Eg: AP_INVOICE_ALL Based on storage of data, base tables are divided into following 1) Global Tables 2) Org Specific Tables 3) Language Specific Tables Global Tables : The data in this tables is not specific to any organization of a business. This data can be shared across all the organizations of business group. Eg: Employs data, Suppliers data, Accounting data, Bank Transactions data
Org specific Tables : The data stored in this tables are specific to particular organization. Eg: Invoice Details Org Specific tables will have ALL as their suffix AP_INVOICE_ALL Language Tables : Apps supports the multiple languages. These tables will maintain the language specific data. These table will have TL as its suffix Different Types Columns in a table : Eg :
MTL_SYSTEM_ITEMS_B
1) Data Columns : These columns contains base transactional data, which is entered from the apps form. USER_NAME, DESCRIPTION, EMPLOYEE_ID, EMAIL_ADDRESS 2) Derived Columns : These are primary key columns. This data will be generated from oracle database sequence. USER_ID
47
3) Who Columns : These are called as history columns. This data will be gerated automatically by the oracle application form. These columns are 1) CREATED_BY 2) CREATION_DATE 3) LAST_UPDATED_BY 4) LAST_UPDATE_DATE 5) LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN Every apps table has the above columns 4) Global Attribute Columns : These columns will maintain the functionality information, which is provided by the ORACLE Corp. GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE1 GLOBAL_ATTRIBUTE2, . 10. 5) Additional Cols : These columns are used to store the data, which is from additional fields added to the existing form during the customization of a form. ATTRIBUTE1, ATTRIBUTE2, ATTRIBUTE3.. 15 6) Key Columns : These are called as segment columns. Used to maintain the key flex field data. A field will have subfields Eg: Account Num : COMPANY-COUNTRY-DEPARTMENT-ACCOUNT LG-IND-SALES-4523 SEGMENT1, SEGMENT2, . SEGMENT20. Developing one more report and to application and execute Eg: Employees information report EmpId EmpName Startdate

Change in the above report

Lay out Model : Header Section : Default Title : if user input is null it should be displayed Select the label and place on the canvas ( user information report ) Write the trigger ( right click ) PL/SQL Editor : function B_5FormatTrigger return boolean is begin if( :P_TITLE is null )then return (TRUE); else return false; end if; end; Trailer Section : Default label : No data found ( it total no.of records are zero ) Select the label and place on the canvas (No data found ) Write the trigger ( right click ) PL/SQL Editor : function B_6FormatTrigger return boolean is begin if ( :USER_COUNT <=0 )THEN return (TRUE); else return false ;
51
end if ; end; Text field its lable : disable if no records PL/SQL Editor : ( for both same code ) if ( :USER_COUNT <=0 )THEN return false; else return true ; end if ;
Again Change in the above report Using lexical parameters dynamically

If input for both From Id and To Id is null where clause should be obtained dynamically 1) Create lexical parameter : P_WHERE
2)
Query : SELECT USER_ID, USER_NAME, CREATION_DATE FROM FND_USER &P_WHERE
Here lexical parameter is not reading form the user. Its value populated dynamically. Hence it is not required to map with the application parameters To populate dynamical write PL/CODE in the after parameter form trigger function AfterPForm return boolean is begin if ( :P_FROM is null and :P_TO is null ) then :P_WHERE:=''; else :P_WHERE:='where USER_ID between :P_FROM and P_TO'; end if ; return (TRUE); end; CHECKING THE REQUIRED OPTION : enable ( mandatory field ) Go to Create concurrent program parameters enable the fields
52
Working with date : Requirement Input : From Date : To Date : UserId Total Users : Step1: Develop the report 1) Create Parameters P_FROM : P_TO 2) Data Model Query SELECT USER_ID, USER_NAME, CREATION_DATE FROM FND_USER WHERE CREATION_DATE BETWEEN :P_FROM AND :P_TO create a summary column : TOTAL_COUNT : Date type : date, input mask : YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS Date type : date, input mask : YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS UserName CreationDate

53
5) Users 6) SRS Here the question is why not use executable directly with users ? What is the advantage in using Concurrent program ? Purpose : single exe can be created with multiple Concurrent Programs with different input parameters with different output forms with different applications different input parameters eg: Client1 requires : only one parameter ( From Date) Client2 requires : two parameters ( From Date ) ( To Date ) different output forms: eg: Client1 requires in PDF format Client2 requires in XML format Other client requires in excel sheet format What is the advantage in using Request group ? To group the multiple programs What is the advantage in using Responsibility group ? Menu we can add different menus with different Concurrent Program and Form can also be attached Request Group : Nothing Data Group : Nothing Default Types 1) Constant 2) SQL Statement 3) Segment 4) Current Date 5) Current Time 6) Profile
54
Constant To pass the constant values such as numbers, chars, String , Date. Enter From Id Enter To Id Enter Tile : Eg: Enter Tile : Default Type : constant SQL Statement Enter From Id Enter To Id Enter Tile : Enter From Id : Default Type : sql statement change data type as 15 char Enter To Id : Default Type : sql statement Segment : This is to get previous parameter value to the next parameter Enter From Id: Enter To Id : Default Type: segment Value Sets : Default Value : Enter From Id System provides built-in ( pre-defined ) value sets Value set is a list of values with validations which will be used to restrict the user without entering the invalid data in the Parameters value sets are used in two scenarios. 1)Concurrent Program parameters 2)Flex fields These are of 8 types of Validation types 1) NONE Default Value : select max(user_id) from fnd_user Default Value : select min(user_id) from fnd_user The above select query returns user_id : -1, -ve value will not be considered for 10/number, we have to Default Value : Users Information Report

Multiple Organizations in Oracle Applications

The Oracle Applications organization models define organizations and the relationships among them in arbitrarily complex enterprises. This organization model serves as the cornerstone for all of the Oracle Applications products. It dictates how transactions flow through different organizations and how those organizations interact with each other. Generally, a complex enterprise has several organization structures, such as Internal, Accounting, and Human Resources. You are able to define different structures to customize Oracle Applications according to your business needs. Organization can be a Company / Branch / Dept / Area / Unit Basic Business Needs Oracle Applications provides you with the features you need to satisfy the following basic business needs: Use a single installation of any Oracle Applications product to support any number of organizations, even if those organizations use different sets of books. Define different organization models Support any number of legal entities within a single installation of Oracle Applications. Secure access to data so that users can access only the information that is relevant to them. Sell products from a legal entity that uses one set of books and ship them from another legal entity using a different set of books, and automatically record the appropriate intercompany sales by posting intercompany accounts payable and accounts receivable invoices. Purchase products through one legal entity and receive them in another legal entity.
Major Features Compiled and Developed by M.Nageswar Rao, B.Tech, MBA 75
Multiple Organizations in a Single Installation You can define multiple organizations and the relationships among them in a single installation of Oracle Applications. These organizations can be sets of books, business groups, legal entities, operating units, or inventory organizations. Secure Access You can assign users to particular organizations. This ensures accurate transactions in the correct operating unit. Sell And Ship Products From Different Legal Entities You can sell from one legal entity and ship from another, posting to each organizations set of books. Receive Goods Into Any Inventory Organization You can enter purchase orders and assign for receipt any inventory organization that uses the same set of books. Your purchase order operating unit and receiving inventory organization must share the same set of books to receive against a purchase order. Automatic Accounting for Internal Requisitions You can create an internal requisition (sales order) in one organization, then ship from another organization, with correct intercompany invoicing. Multiple Organizations Reporting You can set up your Oracle Applications implementation to allow reporting across operating units by setting up the top reporting level. You can run your reports at the set of books level, legal entity level, or operating unit level Multiple Organizations in a Single Installation: You can support multiple organizations running any Oracle Applications product with a single installation. When you run any Oracle Applications product, you first choose an organizationeither implicitly by choosing a responsibility, or explicitly in a Choose Organization window. Each window and report then displays information for your organization only. Organizations that share the same functional currency, Accounting Flexfield structure, and calendar can post to the same set of books. It is in seven levels.

Business Group The business group represents the highest level in the organization structure, such as the consolidated enterprise, a major division, or an operation company. The business group secures human resources information. For example, when you request a list of employees, you see all employees assigned to the business group of which your organization is a part. Employment will also be created. Eg : Head Office , Regional Level Head Quarter Note: This is true in all applications except the HR applications, which support more granular security by a lowerlevel organization unit, the security profile. Multiple sets of books can share the same business group if they share the same business group attributes, including HR flexfield structures.
Set of Books

It is a logical entity. A financial reporting entity that uses a particular chart of accounts, functional currency, and accounting calendar. Oracle General Ledger secures transaction information (such as journal entries and balances) by set of books. When you use Oracle General Ledger, you choose a responsibility that specifies a set of books. You then see information for that set of books only. Legal Entity A legal company for which you prepare fiscal or tax reports and submitted to the government. You assign tax identifiers and other legal entity information to this type of organization. Operating Unit An organization that uses Oracle Cash Management, Order Management and Shipping Execution, Oracle Payables, Oracle Purchasing, and Oracle Receivables. It may be a sales office, a division, or a department. An operating unit is associated with a legal entity. Information is secured by operating unit for these applications. Each user sees information only for their operating unit. To run any of these applications, you choose a responsibility associated with an organization classified as an operating unit. Inventory Organization An organization for which you track inventory transactions and balances, and/or an organization that manufactures or distributes products. Examples include (but are not limited to) manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and sales offices. The following applications secure information by inventory organization: Oracle Inventory, Bills of Material, Engineering, Work in Process, Master Scheduling/MRP, Capacity, and Purchasing receiving functions. To run any of these applications, you must choose an organization that has been classified as an inventory organization. Business group at the top of each hierarchy. When you define new organizations, they are automatically assigned to the business group associated with your current session. Each organization is part of a business group. The business group is usually the top box on an enterprise organization chart.
78
The business group is the largest organization unit you set up in Human Resources to represent your enterprises as an employer. After defining one or more business groups for your enterprise, you set up one or more government reporting entities (GREs) within each business group. The GRE is the organization that federal, state, and local governments recognize as the employer. Below this level, you represent the groupings in which employees work, such as branches, departments, or sections, by means of internal organizations. To enable the assignment of employees to an internal organization, you classify the internal organization as an HR organization. You can define external organizations in the same way as internal organizations, so that you can represent organizations that are not part of your enterprise (such as training vendors or tax offices). The major difference between internal and external organizations is that you cannot assign people to an external organization.
Accounting / Distribution / Materials Management Organization Model

Using the accounting, distribution, and materials management functions in Oracle Applications, you define the relationships among inventory organizations, operating units, legal entities, and sets of books to create a multilevel company structure, as shown in Figure
79
Multilevel Company Structure Example
Legal Entities Post to a Set of Books Each organization classified as a legal entity identifies a set of books to post accounting transactions. Operating Units Are Part of a Legal Entity Each organization classified as an operating unit is associated with a legal entity. Inventory Organizations are Part of an Operating Unit Each organization classified as an inventory organization references an operating unit. Inventory Organization Determines Items Available to Order Management The Item Validation Organization parameter specifies which Oracle Manufacturing organization is used to validate inventory items. You must define all transactable items in this organization. Some inventory item attributes for Receivables and Order Management, including Tax Code and Sales Account, are specific to an operating unit or an accounting flexfield structure. Therefore, you should define an item validation organization for each operating unit. Inventory Organization Determines Items Available to Purchasing The inventory organization you specify in the financial options for each operating unit determines the items available in Purchasing. You can only choose an inventory organization that uses the same set of books as your operating unit.

It can be from approved supplier or from the local suppliers . If goods are not available at approved supplier, then it will be purchased from local suppliers . if purchase form the local suppliers, then buyer should purchase the goods with in the cost of certain limit. If cost is more than the certain limit , the it should be approved by the Top Management . Updating Banks

Purchase form Approved Suppliers If the purchase from Approved Supplier then, then it involves the following steps. 2) RFQ 3) Quotations 4) PO 5) Receipts RFQ ( Request for quotation ) Quotations call for to different suppliers in market. It is through the advertisement. Quotation : Quotations will be received from suppliers such IBM, TVS, WIPRO, ACEL Quotations from the suppliers will be received through E-Mail, FAX, Courier, of by Hand On receiving quotations. These will be analyzed by the purchasing committee. ( quotation analysis ). The purchasing committee will decide the supplier. Once quotation has been approved, the supplier will be an approved supplier of that company. The approved supplied has to supply the goods through out the year as per the requirement. Once quotation has been Approved, the confirmation document will be sent supplier. Confirmation document consists of terms and conditions such Price, quality of the goods, payment terms, 1) AP Interface 2) Inventory Interface
Purchase Order : The Order requisition will be placed by the concerned person ( Stores Manager ) Quotation is only once and it is valid for one year. Order can be placed at any time in the year with out any prior intimation to the supplier . Supplying the Material : Supplier supplies the material as per the quality sample mentioned in the quotation. If not meet the quality, then goods will be treated as inferior quality and it will be rejected. Once goods have been received, the stores manger will issue the receipt of the goods. Requisition Types 1) Benefits of Online Requisitions : You can save time, money, and paper by processing requisitions online. With a paper system, you must provide forms to the requestor, the requestor must send the form to someone else to be approved, and the buyer must manually consolidate requisitions to place on a purchase order. Throughout all of these transactions, you Requisitions 3 7 may
119
generate a number of errors, waste time, and lose money. Some of the many problems you may incur with paper requisitions include: The requestor may not fill in the requisition completely or accurately. The requestors handwriting may be illegible. Someone without proper authority can potentially approve a requisition. The requestor might have to mail the requisition to an approver at a different location and wait a number of days to get it back. The approver or buyer may lose or damage the requisition . The buyer may translate the information from the requisition to the purchase order incorrectly. You may lose significant quantity discounts if the buyer cannot locate all the requisitions that reference a particular item.
Implementing Online Requisitions Many companies want to provide online requisitions to everyone in the company. Others want to limit the number of users who have access to the system. Purchasing is flexible enough to meet the needs of your company. To give everyone access to the system, simply create a user name for each employee in the company and assign the employee the appropriate responsibilities. You can easily designate a smaller group of individuals as requisition preparers if you want to limit the number of requestors on the system. These people can create requisitions for anyone in the company by identifying the appropriate requestor directly on the requisition line. You might also want to limit some preparers to internal requisitions and others to purchase requisitions. You can also print requisitions to obtain signature approvals if some of the approvers do not have access to the system. You can then assign an individual to update the authorization status for these requisitions.
Purchase Requisitions Use the Requisitions window to create requisitions. You must choose the requisition type (internal or purchase). You can also provide a description, unlimited notes, and defaults for requisition lines. For each requisition line, you choose the item you want to order along with the quantity and delivery location. You can get sourced pricing from catalog quotations or open blanket purchase agreements. You can also choose a price from a list of historical purchase order prices. In the Distributions window, you can charge the item to the appropriate 3 8 Oracle Purchasing Users Guide accounts, or you can let the Account Generator create the accounts for you. Once you complete the requisition, you send it through the approval process.
120
Internal Requisitions Unlike purchase requisitions, which are supplied from purchase orders, internal requisitions are supplied from internal sales orders. Internal requisitions are not picked up when you AutoCreate RFQs or purchase orders, nor can they be assigned to a buyer in the Assign Requisitions window. Requisition Templates Use the Requisition Templates window to define requisition templates for items you purchase frequently. For example, if you frequently buy certain office supplies, you can set up an office supplies template for your requestors. This template consists of a list of all items, prices, and sourcing information you want available to the requestor. When you want to order items from this template, use the Supplier Item Catalog, choose the office supplies template, and indicate the quantity you want to order. Purchasing supplies default sourcing and delivery information. Imported Requisitions Purchasing lets you import or reschedule requisitions from other Oracle or nonOracle systems. For example, Work in Process uses Requisition Import to create requisitions for outside processing. Similarly, Master Scheduling/MRP automatically creates requisitions using Requisition Import when you mass load purchase requisitions. Master Scheduling/MRP also automatically reschedules existing requisitions by updating the needby date during this process. If you are using Inventory, you can send a requisition requirement to Purchasing and then run Requisition Import in Purchasing to create the requisition. Paper Requisitions You do not need to create a requisition online to purchase an item. Instead, you can reference a paper requisition number directly on the Requisitions 3 9 purchase order Distribution Details.

User Profiles
A user profile is a set of changeable options, which will be used to change the way of applications execution. Oracle Application Object Library establishes a value for each option in a users profile when the user logs on or changes responsibility. Your user can change the value of profile options at any time. Oracle Application Object Library provides many options that your users can set to alter the user interface of your applications to satisfy their individual preferences. Purpose of change of execution Eg: There is a company called Reliance, for which Oracle Application has been installed Different authority at different levels are working on the same Application For example, login are CLERK SUPERVISOR MANAGER GENERAL MANAGER MANAGING DIRECTOR CEO The above all authorities will not have same limits, every authority will have their own limits For example CLERK can purchase items for max value of $1000 SUPERVISOR $2000 MANAGER..$3000 Hence based their limits way of applications execution should be changed. Based on profile of the employee application is to executed Here profile means employee personal details such as clerk limits, branch of working, dept of working, position of working. Every module consists of 40 to 50 profiles.
243
User Profile Levels 1) User Level 2) Responsibility Level 3) Application Level 4) Site Level
Oracle Application Object Library treats user profile levels as a hierarchy, where User is the highest level of the hierarchy, followed by Responsibility, Application and at the lowest level, Site. Higherlevel option values override lowerlevel option values. Each user profile option ordinarily exists at each level. For example, Oracle Application Object Library provides a sitelevel Printer option, an applicationlevel Printer option, and so on. Oracle Application Object Library enforces the level hierarchy to ensure that higherlevel option values override lowerlevel values. As a result, if your Sitelevel Printer value is Printer1, but your Userlevel Printer value is Printer2, your reports print on the printer2. User Level : User is the highest user profile level and is immediately above Responsibility. Userlevel option values affect the way applications run for an application user. Responsibility Level : Responsibility is the user profile level immediately above Application. Responsibilitylevel option values affect the way applications run for all users of a responsibility. Application Level : Application is the user profile level immediately above Site. Applicationlevel option values affect the way a particular application runs. Site Level : Site is the lowest user profile level. Sitelevel option values affect the way all applications run at a given installation. Note : Default is site level If we assign profile value at Site Level, then it is applicable for all users. If we assign profile for more than on level then top level value will be given more priority Application level profile overwrites the profile value at the SITE LEVEL Responsibility level profile overwrites the profile value at the SITE LEVEL and APPLICATION LEVEL User level profile overwrites the profile value at the SITE LEVEL , RESPONSIBILITY LEVEL. APPLICATION LEVEL , and

Latest Version Provides two more 1) SERVER LEVEL 2) ORGANISATION These two are for future purpose. Note : Most of the responsibilities will be assigned at the RESPONSIBILITY LEVEL. Responsibility is a group of FORMS, REPORTS and PROGRAMS . It is for specific position in the organization Application is also a group of FORMS, REPORTS and PROGRAMS . It is for specific buisiness in the organization Application will be divided into responsibilities and the responsibilities will given to employees Same forms will be grouped and named as responsibility and assigned user. Diff between Application and Responsibility: ============================================ Both are Group of Forms(Menu) Group of Concurrent Programs(Request Group) Group of Users (Data group) But Application as per the Business functionality requirement Responsibility will group as per the position requirement.

Adding Total PO to existing form Go to form layout and add label and text filed Text filed Properties : Name : TOTALPO Sub Class Property : Property Class : TEXT_ITEM. Write the trigger on the above text filed For non data base item edit the Block trigger called POST-QUERY ( block level ) begin select count(segment1) into :TOTALPO from PO_HEADERS_ALL where vendor_id=:vendor_id; end; Q. What is the reason to down load the existing TEMPLATE.fmb file and customize it Ans : to acquire AOL features into the new form such as open form, querying ( f11 ) and ctrl+f11 TEMPLATE.fmb is pre defined file which was developed to get the actions such as open form, querying ( f11 ) and ctrl+f11 . TEMPLATE.fmb was developed with triggers and packages to achieve the actions. Creation of New Tables ( User Own tables ) Steps 1) New Table
1) First connect to Schema ( INV ) and create the table Compiled and Developed by M.Nageswar Rao, B.Tech, MBA 264
2) Grants to APPS 3) Create Synonym 2) Register table Using buil-in package AD_DD we can register the table 1) New Table connect to Schema ( INV ) and create the table go to SQL * PLUS User name : inv/inv@vis Or SQL> conn inv/inv@vis ; SQL> show user ; USER is "INV" Create table SQL> create table item_test ( item varchar2(100), item_desc varchar2(100), item_date date, item_price number(9,2) ) ; Grants SQL> grant all on item_test to apps ; SQL> CONN APPS/APPS@VIS SQL> show user ; USER is "APPS" SQL> CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM ITEM_TEST FOR INV.ITEM_TEST ; 2) Registration of table Using AD_DD package we can register the table To see the contents of above package go to TOAD tool and AD_DD ( f4 ) AD_DD package provides register_table procedure to register the table register_column procedure to register the table columns go sql command prompt and register SQL> EXEC AD_DD.REGISTER_TABLE('INV', 'ITEM_TEST', 'T'); SQL>EXEC AD_DD.REGISTER_COLUMN('INV','ITEM_TEST','ITEM',1,'VARCHAR2',100,'N','Y'); SQL> EXEC AD_DD.REGISTER_COLUMN('INV','ITEM_TEST','ITEM_DESC',2,'VARCHAR2',100,'N','Y'); SQL> EXEC AD_DD.REGISTER_COLUMN('INV','ITEM_TEST','ITEM_DATE',3,'DATE',11,'N','Y');

FLEX FIELDS ==========
293
Flexfield are made up with Attribute columns or Segment columns . which are more flexible than the normal fields. Flex fields are two types 1)DFF (Descriptive Flex Field) 2)KFF (Key Flex Field) DFF: It will be used to capture the Additional information from the end user without change the code in the form and without Alter the DB object. ATTRIBUTE Columns will be used to Capture the DFF data. Eg : EMP Form(old ) Emp No : Emp Name : Sal : Additional fields Project : Designation : Loc : [ ] called as flex fields Additional fields will be stored into attribute columns ( attr1, attr2, ..attr15) Data Type of attribute columns is varchar2 If DFF is available then need not down load the form and customize the form Pre-Requisite to create DFF: 1) Application Name 2) Form Name Purchasing Vision Operations ( USA ) Items Master Item M1 Help Diagnostics Examine Password : apps Block : $DESCRIPTIVE_FLEXFIELD$ Filed : mtl_system_items.DF Value : Items (Inventory) Here Item is a title Inventory Application Copy the Value = Items (Inventory) into some notepad System Administrator Application Flex Fields Descriptive Segments Emp Table empno ename sal

The trigger which are used in Customization of a from by using CUSTOM.PLL WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD ZOOM SPECIAL TRIGGERS Zoom Trigger will be used to call the another forms from the standard forms. Special triggers will be used to attach the menu options. CUSTOM.pll will be located in AU_TOP/11.5.0/Resource/ To work with the CUSTOM.pll the following are required
300
1) Form Name 2) Block Name 3) Field Name 4) What customization 5) When customization will be executed Eg: When the form is opened : WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE Steps to Customization of a from by using CUSTOM.PLL 1) down load the CUSTOM.PLL from the location AU_TOP/11.5.0/Resource/ 2) Open the CUSTOM.PLL with forms 6i 3) Go to PL/SQL Libraries CUSTOM Program units CUSTOM ( package body ) Goto Event Procedure Write the Following Code in the place of 'Real Code Starts Here' form_name block_name begin if (event_name = 'WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE') then if (form_name = 'APXWCARD' and block_name = 'CARDS') then APP_ITEM_PROPERTY2.SET_PROPERTY('CARDS.DEPARTMENT_NAME', -BlockName.FieldName DISPLAYED, PROPERTY_OFF); APP_ITEM_PROPERTY2.SET_PROPERTY('PO_HEADERS.SEGMENT1', PROMPT_TEXT, 'PO Number'); APP_ITEM_PROPERTY2.SET_PROPERTY('REGIONS.REGION_LONG_NAME', CASE_RESTRICTION, UPPERCASE); end if; end if; (attach the Library called APPCORE2.pll) as the APP_ITEM_PROPERTY2 is package form APPCORE2.pll SET_PROPERTY is a procedure from package called APP_ITEM_PROPERTY2 varchar2(30) := name_in('system.current_form'); varchar2(30) := name_in('system.cursor_block');
301
4)
Compile the Library we can get .pll
(Program link Library)
Execute the Library we will get .plx (Program Link Executable) (File ->Administration->Compile File) 5)Transfer both .pll and .plx files into the Resource folder in the AU top. (D:\oracle\visappl\au\11.5.0\resource ) (Note: before going to copy into the server close the complete Application) ZOOM Option : ZOOM Icon is used to To open a form from another from ZOOM Icon can not be used in the form personalization. ZOOM Trigger is similar to the Button It is a global to the Oracle Application, Using this any form can be invoked It is a global. It can be used for all forms. ZOOM Triggers are 1) Enable Enabling ZOOM Trigger Custom ( package body ) function zoom_available return boolean is form_name varchar2(30) := name_in('system.current_form'); begin if (form_name = 'POXPOEPO' ) then return TRUE; end if; return FALSE; end zoom_available; Execute Custom ( package body ) Go to vent procedure and write the following code if (event_name = 'ZOOM') then if (form_name = 'POXPOEPO' ) then fnd_function.execute(FUNCTION_NAME=>'PO_POXPOEPO', OPEN_FLAG=>'Y', 2) Executable
302
SESSION_FLAG=>'Y' ); end if; end if; Note: When we are copying the custom.PLL in to the Resource folder we have to close the application because If application is opened CUSTOM.pll being used , All the forms in oracle applications developed with TEMPLETE.fmb contains CUSTOM.pll If file is being used by other program we can not Update the file. thats why we will close the application. When we are working in the project all the Users will be connected to Oracle apps we can not ask every one to close the application. for that we will get the Alternative Path(Link File Path), which will be provided by DBA, we will place the CUSTOM.pll in that folder only we have to reLogin we can find the Customization Other users no need to Logout

XML Publisher
Oracle Reporting Tools are 1) SQL 2) PL/SQL 3) RDF 4) Discoverer 5) XML Publisher 6) BI Publisher 7) OBIEE Other Reporting Tools are Dataware Housing Tools 1) COGNOS 2) INFORMATICA Microsoft SQL Server MS-BI Oracle Reporting Tools SQL : Using SQL we can generate report in a ASCII format. We can not in a GUI format. Images can not be displayed as it is ASCII output SELECT statement is used to generate the report PL/SQL : Using SQL we can generate report in a ASCII format. We can not in a GUI format. Images can not be displayed as it is ASCII output Cursors are used to generate the report. RDF : We can display out put in GUI format. Images can also be displayed.
304
We can not display the output at a time in multiple formats such as PDF, HTML, TEXT, EXCEL Layout designing is very complicated.
Discoverer :- Older one . it is not being used with current version Oracle Apps. XML Publisher : It is a mostly used one in the current version of Oracle Apps. It is an extension to RDF. Easy to design the layout BI Publisher and OBIEE: It is an extension to XML Publisher. XML is used to develop the reports. Working with XML Publisher Softwares used in XML Publisher 1) MS-WORD 2) MS-Excel Features of XML Publisher 1) Good Look and Feel 2) Easy to design Layout Designing 3) Layout can be designed in a short time 4) Multiple Outputs Can be Generated 5) Sending Report as E-Mail is a Dynamic. 6) Less development time. 7) Platform Independent platforms such as Reports-6i, Discoverer, OBIEE and any one which can generate the XML files ) 8) Tool Independent ( MS-Word, MS-Excel, PDF ) 3) PDF 4) RDF
9) XML Bursting Can handle E-Mail, FAX and FTP

FTP through FTP Report can be sent to Server, that can be viewed by multiple users 10) Language Translation English text into local language by using XLIFF technology Just Mapping between English and local language. It will done at the on site by the language translator
305
in Oracle reports there is a option called CLSF ( Customer Language Specific Format ) to generate the language specific report. Disadvantages : XML Coding required. Development of Simple Report : Eg :
Empno TOTAL : 14
Steps : 1) Data Model Query
Ename

INTERFACES Interface is a Connector or Bridge between two Applications. It is used to transfer data from Legacy Applications to Oracle Application and vice-versa Legacy Systems could be SAP, Main Frame, SIEBEL, JD Edwerds, BANN, People Soft Interface is one of the Program which is used to transfer the data from Oracle database tables in to flat file (or) Flat files into Database tables
There are two types of Interfaces. 1)Inbound Interface 2)Outbound Interface Inbound Interface : Inbound Interface is used to upload the data from legacy system (Flat files) into Oracle Applications base tables. If it is Only one time of time data transfer, then it is called Conversion / Migration If it is Multiple times of data transfer ( i.e every day / week / month ), then it is inbound interface Outbound Interface: Outbound Interface is used to extract the data from oracle Database tables into the flat files. While developing the outbound Interface we use UTL_File to Extract the data. While Developing the Inbound interface we use SQL * loader to import the data into base tables. UTL_FILE Package : ================== This is One of the PL/SQL Package which will be used to transfer the data from table to files and from files to tables But when we are transferring data from file to table SQL *Loader can also be used. It is recommended.
314
To transfer from table to file we dont have alternative, we have to use only UTL_FILE.
We use following three functions to generate the file. 1)Utl_File.fopen 3)Utl_File.fclose = To open (or) Create the file = To close the File after Data transfer.
2)Utl_File.Put_line = To Transfer the data into the File.
Outbound Interface Process: ============================= 1)Develop the PL/SQL Program (Either Procedure or Package) . 2) Register the Procedure or Package as Concurrent Program and submit from SRS Window. 1)Develop the PL/SQL Program (Either Procedure or Package) with the following statements 1)Write the Cursor to retrieve the data from database tables. 2)Create file or Open the File by using UTL_File.fopen(). 3)Open the Cursor 4)If any validations are there write the validations 5)Transfer the Data into File by using UTL_File.Put_Line(). 6)Close the Cursor. 7)Close the File by using UTL_File.fclose(); Eg : create or replace procedure test_proc (errbuf out varchar2, retcode out varchar2) as cursor c1 is select vendor_id, segment1, vendor_name from po_vendors; l_po number(9); l_inv number(9); l_sites number(9); l_id begin utl_file.file_type ; l_timeStamp varchar2(15);
315
select to_char(sysdate, 'dd-MON-yyyy') into l_timeStamp from dual; l_id:= utl_file.fopen('D:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\plsql\temp', l_timeStamp ||'.txt', 'w'); for x1 in c1 loop into l_po from po_headers_all where vendor_id=x1.vendor_id; select count(*) into l_inv from ap_invoices_all where vendor_id=x1.vendor_id; select count(*) into l_sites from po_vendor_sites_all where vendor_id=x1.vendor_id; utl_file.put_line( l_id, x1.segment1 || '#' || x1.vendor_name || '#' || l_po || '#' || l_inv ||'#' || l_sites ); end loop; utl_file.fclose(l_id); end ; / 2)Register the Procedure or Package as Concurrent Program and submit from SRS Window. 3) go to D:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\plsql\temp' and check the data in the file called : 13-APR-2001.txt 4) Opening with excel Start excel file open brows for D:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\plsql\temp and open 13-APR-2001.txt file Select delimiter next Others specify ( # ) next finish. One more example create or replace procedure user_proc( errBuff OUT varchar2, retCode OUT number, From_Uid number, To_Uid ) as cursor c1 is number select count(*)
316
select USER_ID, USER_NAME, CREATION_DATE, DESCRIPTION from fnd_user where USER_ID between From_Uid and To_Uid; File_Handler begin File_Handler=UTL_FILE.fopen('D:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\plsql\temp','users.txt','w'); for X in C1 loop UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE(File_Handler, X.USER_ID ||'#'|| X.USER_NAME ||'#'|| X.CREATION_DATE ||'#'||' X.DESCRIPTION ); l_rCount:=l_rCount+1; end loop; UTL_FILE.fclose(File_Handler); fnd_file.put_line("No of Records Written to the File :'||l_rCount); retCode:=0; UTL_FILE.file_type;
l_rCount number default 0;
exception when utl_file.invalid_filehandle then fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.log,'Invalid File Handler'); UTL_FILE.fclose_all; retCode:=2; when utl_file.invalid_path then fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.log,'Invalid File Path');

It is process of Loading data form legacy systems ( other applications : flat files) into oracle applications
320
It can be in methods 1) Using SQL * LOADER ( recommended ) 2) UTL FILE Package 3) Data Loader ( External / Third party tool ) Data Loader : in this Source file will be mapped to table columns. Steps involved in the Inbound Interface :
Flat File
Bad file/ discard file SQL * LOADER ( .ctl file )
Staging Table
Error Tables PL/SQL Program ( Procedure / Package )
Interface Tables
Error tables/ Columns/Reports Standard Program
Base Tables
Staging table : It is a temporary table create by the user. It is called as pre-interface table Purpose of staging table if flat file structure is not similar to the base table, then we need create a table, which is similar to the structure of the Flat File, called as staging table. Eg : Flat file with the following data Empno, ename, deptno, hiredate, sal Table with the following columns Empno, ename, deptno, hiredate, sal, Comm, Tax Here comm and tax columns may be conditional data columns Eg : if sal < 2000 Comm = 250 if sal if sal 2000 to 5000 Comm = 450 5000 to 10000 comm = 600 comm. = 800
if sal > 10000
========================= if sal < 2000 Tax = NIL if sal 2000 to 5000 Tax = 12% of Sal
321
if sal
5000 to 10000 Tax = 15% of Sal Tax = 20% of Sal
if sal > 10000
The control file can not be developed with the controlling statement as above. Hence we can not use directly control file to transfer data from Flat file to oracle applications base table Inter face table : It is a built-in table need not to create by the users. Here data will be stored temporarily. Hence it is called as temporary table. This table is used to store valid data temporarily. SQL * Loader : It is used to load the from Flat file to staging table by using control file
PL/SQL procedure : It is used to read the data form the staging table and validate then insert into the interface table. Standard Program : It performs the post validation such validating users ( i.e whether the using is the correct user or not .) After performing validation it loads the data into the base tables In the above Interface table, Standard program , base tables and error table/ columns / reports are built-in need not to develop by the user. To develop the In-bound interface the following four actions are required 1) Staging table Creation 2) Develop the SQL * LOADER program and register 3) Develop the PL/SQL procedure and register 4) Submit standard program SQL * LOADER It is one of the oracle tools and it is used to load the data from flat file to oracle base table. It is used in the development of Interfaces (
I ) and conversions ( C ) of
the RICE components
There are five types of files are used with SQL * LOADER. 1) Data file 2) Control File 3) Discard File 4) Bad File 5) Log File 1) Data File or Flat file :
322
File contains data in a specific format as per the requirement of the client. It will be received from the client. Extension is( .dat , .txt, .csv) .csv is an excel file csv common separated value. If data is available in excel file with extension .xls then save it as .cvs file before going to load into database table. Mostly data in the form of excel files. 2) Control file : It is SQL * LOADER program. It provides syntax to load the data form flat file to database table. This file has to be developed and executed by the Technical Consultant. It will be developed in the notepad and saved with extension ( .ctl ) 3) Bad File : It will be generated automatically by the SQL * LOADER. Bad file contains the records, which are rejected by the SQL * LOADER SQL * LOADER rejects the records in the following scenario 1) Any Data Type mismatch, 2) No. of fields mismatched 3) Internal Errors, 3) Data file Format problem . Extension of this file is ( .bad ) 4)Discard File: It will be generated automatically by the SQL * LOADER. It contains the records, which are rejected by the Control file. Control file rejects the record, when the record is not as per the specified format in the Control file. Discard File Extension is ( .dis) 5)Log File : It contains the Log information like Program Time of start, Time of end, No of records, which are successfully uploaded into the database table. Rejected Records which are sent to the Bad file and Discard file. Error Message during the execution of Control file. Extension is ( .log ) Steps in loading the flat file data into the database table 1) Received the flat file form the client and check the file format. 2) Identify the data base table name and database 3) Develop the control file using notepad and save it. Syntax to develop the control file. LOAD DATA INFILE Data File Path with file name INSERT INTO TABLE TRAILING NULLCOLS <Table Name> OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY ' " ' FIELDS TERMINATED by ','

Diff Between Inbound Interface and Conversion: Interface 1) Interface will be used to upload the data multiple times. Regularly every week or month or day 2) Client may be using Legacy system and also Oracle Applications 3) We will not be knowing the Data file volume. 4) Interface we will be used in Customization and as well as implementation Projects. 5) Interface will be used to load the current data. 5) Conversions are used to load old or historical data. 2) Client will use Only Oracle Applications. once data has been uploaded from legacy then legacy system will be closed. 3) Here we will be knowing the data file volume exactly. 4) conversions will be used in the Implementation Projects Conversion 1) Conversion is one-Time Data Transfer
