Additional customization is required for HR WF (HR trans Event trigger)?

Hi Friends,
I am trying to raise one event from one HR transaction (Create Appraisal). But same event id is being generated always in the standard program. So I tried creating one Z program and called the function module SWE_EVENT_CREATE and commit work. Still it is generating the same Event id always (00000000000000001). I tried to trace the event but it is not tracing anything, I am just getting one ON and one OFF. Can anyone please suggest me any additional customization is required for HR transactions workflow triggering.
Thanks & Regards
Sujith

That's slightly misleading I would say.
SWEHR1 tells you which object types and infotypes it is possible to have events created for. It is SAP data and you should definitely not modify it.
SWEHR2 tells you which event creations SAP have set up already. It is SAP data and you should preferrably not modify it.
SWEHR3 is your customer event linkages. If you want to have events created for an object type/infotype combination SAP hasn't defined, or you want additional events or other events for a combination SAP has defined, this is where you should perform your customizing.

"Additional software is required for Quick Time to playback this media"

I am trying to view the footage shot in DVCproHD. I can hear people talking, but all I can see is a black screen.
When I try to open a clip, I get the message "additional software is required for QuickTime to playback this media. It may be available from the QuickTime Components page."
When I click on "continue," it takes me to a page with 11 different components listed, but no hint as to which component will help me view the .mov files.
Any idea what additional software I need to view these Hi Def files?

A friend of mine let me know that for $80 I could get 'Calibrated{Q} XD Decode'. That software requires Mac intel -- but I have access to such a machine in my office so I am good to go. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me.

"Additional software is required for quicktime to playback this media."

I am trying to open a .mov file with QuickTime, but every time I try, I get the message that additional software is needed to play it. A pop-up window then directs me to a page where I can download a handful of different components. I have no idea which one, if any, would help me to play the movie.
I can press the "play" button, but I only see a black screen, and there is no audio.
I am not very tech savvy at all, so I'm not sure what informatin would be necessary to help answer this question, so I'm just going to copy down some of the video's properties:

Thank you so much--if you can help me out I would really appreciate it!

Sorry.
I don't know what else to try.
It's a complicated world with Windows and Apple and media formats. Microsoft ended support for the Mac OS and their proprietary Windows formats when they switched from the AVI container to the WMP container formats.
Apple (QuickTime) hasn't "changed the rules" and offers both Mac and Windows users a version of their product. Backward compatibility (older formats) still works in most cases.
But your file is really WMP (based on the codecs). It may only work on a Mac that also has a software "bridge" know as Flip4Mac.

Additional Extended Withholding Tax for Chile.

Dear Gurus,
I've received a request for an additional WIthholding tax used in chile for Foreigner which are not living at chile.
The description I've received was as follows.
If a Downpayment is applied the Withholding Tax should be set at the Downpayment.
after that when the Invoice is loaded, the remaining WIthholding tax should be calculated.
I've created two Tax types one for invoice and one for payments. with their corresponding Tax Codes.
Take this as an example: Final Invoice 10000   WTh 20%
F-48 Downpayment of 5000 , estimates WTh of 1000 this leaves
5000 Vendor,
1000 to WTh and
4000 to outgoing payment
After that I enter the invoice reducing the WTh ammount to the remaining part (5000)
that leaves the following accounting doc
Expenses 10000
to Vendor 9000
Wth           1000
then I make a compensation at f-54 for the 5000 Downpayment. but when generating the final payment of the invoice the F110 is calculating as follows.
wht         1000
Vendor   9000
to vendor        5000
Wth                  2000
Payment          3000
Doing this it's estimating the nother 1000 of the remaining part of the paymen side of the Wth.
Could anyone let me know if there's a way to make it avoid making this estimation since the whole withholding tax has finished when the invoice arrived.
Thanks in advance for any information you could provide.
Regards

Steps required for cin configuration

hi,
can anybody give me the steps required for cin configuration.

Hi,
CIN Setting:
Check Calculation Procedure
In this activity, you can check and, if necessary, change existing procedures for tax calculation.
Standard settings
Calculation procedures containing the necessary specifications for the calculation and posting of taxes on sales/purchases have already been defined in the standard SAP system for certain countries. Every calculation procedure groups several tax types together into a condition type (for example, output tax or input tax) in the calculation procedure, and determines calculation rules for it.
The calculation procedure determines for which amount the individual condition types are to be calculated. This can be the base amount (total of the expense items and the revenue items) or a subtotal. The entry in column FrmLvl, determines for which amount tax is calculated.
Note
In this activity, the condition types for the check and the possible change provided in the standard system are also displayed. Here, for example, the condition calculation rule, or for which base amount the tax is calculated is determined (= condition type).
Recommendation
If possible, do not change the condition types and calculation procedures provided in the standard system. Only check the standard condition types and calculation procedures regarding whether you can use them for your requirements. If necessary, make changes.
Activities
If you cannot use the standard settings, change the condition types and calculation procedures delivered to meet your requirements.
Procedure (pricing, output control, acct. det., costing,...)
Specifies the conditions that are allowed for a document and defines the sequence in which they are used.
Example
Procedures are used, for example, in the following applications:
· Pricing in sales and distribution
· Applying overhead in Product Costing (costing sheets) and for CO internal orders
· Calculating accrued costs in Profitability Analysis
· Output control (printed confirmations, EDI messages, electronic mail)
· Account determination
· Calculating taxes on sales/purchases
· Calculating accruals in Cost Center Accounting
· Pricing for resource planning
Definition: condition type
Controlling (CO)
A distinction, in overhead calculation, is made between:
· Base condition types, which determine the object for which the overhead is to be calculated
· Overhead condition types, which define the percentage overhead to be applied
In resource planning, a condition type determines the types of resource prices that are stored in the SAP System. These can be absolute or percentage values, for example.
Real Estate Management (RE)
An exact definition of a condition that specifies the amount paid for a specific service.
Condition types include:
· Basic rent
· Advance payment for operating costs
· Pest control
Sales and Distribution (SD)
A characteristic of a condition.
For example, in pricing, different condition types are used to distinguish between a discount that refers to a net price and a discount that refers to a gross price.
Treasury (TR)
A characteristic of a condition used to classify financial transactions.
Typical examples of condition types are interest, dividends, or full repayment upon maturity. The various parameters specified for the individual condition types determine how the flows are calculated in the cash flow.
Return ->
Definition: condition_type
Condition type
The condition type is used for different functions. In pricing, for example, the condition type lets you differentiate between different kinds of discount; in output determination, between different output types such as order confirmation or delivery note; in batch determination, between different strategy types.
Access sequence
With the access sequence you define
· the condition tables used to access the condition records
· the sequence of the condition tables
· which field contents are the criteria for reading the tables
Assign Country to Calculation Procedure
In this activity, you enter the key for the calculation procedure which determines the conditions which are allowed per document and which defines the sequence of the conditions in the document for each country.
Requirements
Each calculation procedure which you enter must contain the necessary specifications for calculating and posting the taxes on sales/purchases. For more information on this, read the chapter "Create calculation procedure".
Activities
1. Assign a procedure for tax calculation to every country with which your company has business dealings.
2. Make sure that the corresponding data for calculating taxes is stored for each calculation procedure which you enter here.
Check and Change Settings for Tax Processing
In this activity you make the necessary specifications for posting taxes. In doing this you specify under a process key the following indicators:
· Tax type
Output tax, input tax, additional taxes, or "not tax-relevant" can be specified as the tax type.
· Nondeductibility of tax amounts
For this, tax amounts are marked as not deductible.
· Posting indicator
Here you specify whether the tax amount is posted separately or distributed to expense or revenue items.
· Tax not relevant to cash discount (Not discount relevant)
This indicator is set only for Canada. If you select it, the system does not take into account the corresponding tax amount when determining the tax base.
Standard settings
Process keys with the most important characteristics for tax amounts have already been set in the standard SAP system.
Recommendation
Do not change the standard settings. Check whether you can use these process keys for your company, making changes only if necessary.
Activities
If you cannot use the standard settings, use new process keys and enter them in your calculation procedure. Do not change the standard SAP process keys.
Note
You must make enhancements to the standard settings if you want to specify a new account key in the "Create calculation procedure" activity. You must create and maintain this key beforehand in the "Settings for tax processing" activity.
Internal processing key
The internal processing keys are used by the system to determine accounts or posting keys for line items which are created automatically.
The processing keys are defined in the system and cannot be changed by the user.
Definition: posting key
Financial Accounting (FI)
A two-digit numerical key that determines the way line items are posted.
This key determines several factors including the:
· Account type
· Type of posting (debit or credit)
· Layout of entry screens

Use
In this IMG activity, you maintain the data relating to your company codes.
Maintain Plant Settings
Use
In this IMG activity, you maintain excise information relating to your plants.

In this IMG activity, you define your excise groups. For each excise group, you can also control how various excise invoice transactions will work.
Definition: excise group
Financial Accounting (FI)
A unit within an excise registration, in India, which keeps its own set of excise records.
Whereas the excise registration reports to the excise authorities, the excise group is a purely internal organizational unit. Each excise group keeps records of all transactions that have to be reported to the excise authorities. When the time comes to present these records to the authorities, the excise registration compiles the information from all of its excise groups.
Return ->
Definition: excise group
Maintain Series Groups
Use
In this IMG activity, you define the different excise series groups within your company. Series groups allow you to maintain multiple number ranges for the outgoing excise documents.
Based on excise regulations and exemptions from the authorities you can maintain multiple number series for outgoing documents. But each of these series has to be declared to the excise authorities.
Activities
· Define excise series groups based on type of outgoing document
· Assign series group to excise registration ID
· If no financial postings are required for an Excise invoice in this seris group then you tick the 'No utilization' indicator.
· If the CENVAT has to be paid immediately and you need not wait for the Fort nightly payment then mark the 'Immediate Utilization' indicator.
Example
You could define two series groups, group 001 for excise invoices, and group 002 for 57 F4 documents.
Maintain Excise Duty Indicators
Use
In this IMG activity, you maintain the excise duty indicators.
Maintain Postal Addresses
Use
In this IMG activity, you maintain the addresses of various customs and excise organizations that your company deals with.
You use these addresses in the ARE Documents functions. When you create an ARE-1 or ARE-3, you enter the address of the excise department and the customs department involved in the export process. The system then prints their names and addresses on the AREs.
You can then define a default local excise department for each excise group and a default customs department for each series group.
Definition: ARE-1 document
Logistics - General (LO)
A form, in India, that companies have to fill out when they remove excisable goods from their manufacturing plants for export.
The form exempts them from paying excise duty when they remove the goods from their premises.
Return ->
Definition: ARE-1 document
Definition: ARE-3 document
Logistics - General (LO)
A form, in India, that allows companies to sell otherwise excisable goods from their premises without paying basic excise duty. The buyer of the goods must be in possession of a deemed export license.
The ARE-3 states what goods are being removed and which deemed excise license covers it.
Return ->
Definition: ARE-3 document
Maintain Subtransaction Type with Text
Sub Transaction Type
Sub transaction type is used for multiple purposes
Subcontracting:
It determines the subcontracting attributes and determines the accounts for the posting while doing a sub contracting transaction.
Excise removals
Sub transaction type is also used for determining the accounts while doing excise removals.
With in CIN the account determination is based on the transaction type. So normally you can have a single set of accounts for Excise utilization. In case you need alternate account determination for handling various scenarios you can define sub transaction types. The sub transaction types and corresponding account assignments needs to be maintained in CIN customization
Select Tax Calculation Procedure
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which tax procedure you want to use for determining excise duties and sales taxes on input materials in India.
· If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINN.
· If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
We strongly recommend that new customers use condition-based excise determination. Note that once you have started using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one, otherwise you will not be able to display old documents.
Definition: condition-based excise determination
Logistics - General (LO
A method that the system uses of determining excise duty in India.
This method requires you to create condition records for each combination of vendor or customer and material (and possibly other conditions).
When you create a purchasing document, the system calls the tax procedure assigned to India. The tax procedure finds all of the condition records that you have created for that combination of vendor and material.
When you create a sales document, the excise duties and sales taxes are determined by the pricing procedure (not the tax procedure).
Return ->
Definition: condition-based excise determination
Definition: formula-based excise determination
Logistics - General (LO)
A method that the system uses of determining excise duty in India.
This method was used in the Country Version India Add-On and requires you to maintain additional data in the Excise Rate Maintenance transaction, J1ID.
When you create a purchasing document, the system calls the tax procedure assigned to India. Each of the excise duties in the tax procedure has its own condition types, and each condition type is assigned to a formula. This formula instructs the system to calculate the excise duty using the data that you have maintained in the Excise Rate Maintenance transaction.
When you create a sales document, the system determines the excise duties and sales taxes using the pricing procedure (not the tax procedure).
Return ->
Definition: formula-based excise determination
Maintain Excise Defaults
Use
In this IMG activity, you define which tax procedure and pricing condition types are used in calculating excise taxes using formula-based excise determination.
Activities
If you use condition-based excise determination, fill out the CVD cond. field and leave all the others blank.

Only carry out this activity if you use condition-based excise determination.
See also
SAP Library -> Logistics -> Country Versions -> Asia-Pacific -> India -> Materials Management (MM) -> Condition-Based Excise Determination
Classify Condition Types
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which condition types you use for which sort of tax. Note that this only applies to condition types that you use with the new excise determination method.
The system uses this information when you create a document from another one. For example, when you enter an incoming excise invoice from a purchase order, or when you create an outgoing excise invoice from a sales order, the system determines the various excise duties in the excise invoice using the information that you have entered here.
In addition, when you create a purchasing document, the system only uses the condition types that you enter here.
· For taxes on purchases, use the condition types contained in the tax procedure.
· For taxes on sales, use the condition types contained in the pricing procedures.
Standard settings
The standard system comes with sample settings for the tax calculation procedures and pricing procedures.
Use these settings as a basis for your own.
Maintain Chapter IDs

Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which excise accounts (for excise duty and CENVAT) are to be posted to for the various transaction types. Enter all the accounts that are affected by each transaction type.
If you use subtransaction types, enter the accounts for each subtransaction type as well.
Activities
Transaction type UTLZ is used for determining accounts only while posting excise JVs and also if the payment of excise duty has to be done fortnightly.
The fortnightly CENVAT payment utility picks up the credit side accounts from the transaction types of GRPO, EWPO, and TR6C for determining the CENVAT and PLA accounts. There is no separate transaction type for fortnightly payment.
Example
Excise TT DC ind Account name
GRPO CR CENVAT clearing account
GRPO CR RG 23 BED account
GRPO DR CENVAT on hold account
Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts.
When you come to execute the various transactions, the system determines which G/L accounts to post to by looking at the:
· Excise group
· Company code
· Chart of accounts
Furthermore, if you want separate account determination settings within an excise group, you can also use sub transaction types.
Requirements
You have already:
· Defined the G/L accounts
· Defined the excise groups
· Maintained the transaction accounts
Activities
For each excise group, assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts. For most businesses, one set of accounts will suffice for alltransactions.
Note
You need not remit the CENVAT to the excise department immediately, so maintain the credit account for transaction type DLFC as an excise duty interim account. This will be set off when you remit the duty.
Define Processing Modes Per Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which processing modes the user can use in the various Incoming Excise Invoice transactions.
This way, you can tailor the transaction to what your users have to do.
Standard settings
The system comes with three standard transactions relating to the Incoming Excise Invoices function (those that are included in the role SAP_CIN). The processing modes available in these transactions are as follows:
· J1IEX_C
This transaction is for excise clerks: users of this transaction can only capture and display excise invoices.
· J1IEX_P
This transaction is for excise supervisors: they can change, display, cancel, and post excise invoices.
· J1IEX
In this transaction, users can capture and post excise invoices, as well as displaying, changing, and canceling them.
Activities
If the standard settings meet your requirements, do not do anything.
Otherwise, you can adjust the standard settings or you can create your own transactions. To do so:
1. In Maintain Transaction, create a new transaction by making a copy of one of the standard transactions. Give the new transaction a transaction code of your choice.
2. In this activity, enter data as follows:
o Tcode: The transaction code that you have just created.
o Proc. mode: Specify what the users of the transaction will do with the excise invoices.
o Active: Select this indicator to activate the setting.
Example
You might want to create a transaction that only allows users to display excise invoices.
Define Reference Documents Per Transaction
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify for each combination of transaction and processing mode which reference documents you want the users to be able to use.
Activities
If the standard settings meet your requirements, you do not have to do anything.
Otherwise, add the entries that you need to the table: For each transaction, make one entry per combination of processing mode and reference document. Activate each entry for it to work.
Definition: excise invoice reference document
Logistics - General (LO)
A document, in India, that you refer to when you enter an incoming excise invoice.
If you have already posted the goods receipt, you can use the goods receipt document as the reference document. Otherwise, you can use the purchase order (or another purchasing document, such as a be a contract or a scheduling agreement).
Example
In the SAP System, you create a purchase order for 100 bags of sand and send the order to your vendor. Two weeks later, the vendor delivers the sand, accompanied by an excise invoice.
When you enter the excise invoice in the system, you specify the number of the original purchase order: this is the reference document.
Return ->
Definition: excise invoice reference document
Maintain Rejection Codes
Use
In this IMG activity, you define the rejection codes that are used in the Incoming Excise Invoices transaction.
Activities
For each rejection code, enter a code and a description. You can also specify whether the excise duty in the invoice is to be posted to the CENVAT on hold account, instead of the CENVAT clearing account.
Specify Which Movement Types Involve Excise InvoicesUse
In this IMG activity, you specify which movement types relating to goods receipts involve excise invoices.
The system uses this information during the goods receipt procedure. When you post a goods receipt using one of the moevement types that you have specified here, the system prompts you to enter the excise invoice number.
Note
This option cannot be used for processing goods receipts without purchase orders.
Maintain Default Excise Groups and Series Groups
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which excise group and series group you want to appear in these fields by default. You can make separate settings for different combinations of sales organization, distribution channel, division, and shipping point.
Activities
This activity is optional, unless you want the system to automatically create outgoing excise invoices when you create a customer invoice.
In this case, you must also make the appropriate setting in Customizing for Excise Duty, by choosing Basic Subcontracting Attributes
Use
The subcontracting attributes help determine conditions for a combination of an excise group, a transaction type, and a subtransaction type.
The conditions such as the number of excise items per subcontracting challan, if the nonexciseable materials have to be filtered or not when the subcontracting challan is created, the movement type groups for issues and receipts and the hierarchy of determining the excise base value are mentioned here.
Requirements
Before you continue with this activity, work through the following activities:
· Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Goods Issue / Transfer Postings -> Define Screen Layout.
For the movement type 541, maintain the field Purchase Order as an optional entry or as a required entry.
· Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Output Determination ->Maintain OutputTypes.
Maintain the output type. On the Default Values tab, maintain the dispatch time and the transmission medium. Maintain the print parameter on the Print tab. This output type has to be maintained in this activity here.
· Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Output Determination ->Assign Forms andPrograms.
Maintain the Program, FORM routine, and the form for the output type.
· Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Output Determination ->Printer Determination -> Printer Determination by Plant / Storage Location.
Enter the output device that you use.
Settings -> Maintain Excise Groups, and selecting Create EI (Create Excise Invoice Automatically).
Maintain Movement Type Groups
Use
In this IMG activity, you group movement types together to form movement type groups.
Definition: movement type
Inventory Management (MM-IM)
A classification key indicating the type of material movement (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, physical stock transfer).
The movement type enables the system to find predefined posting rules determining how the accounts of the financial accounting system (stock and consumption accounts) are to be posted and how the stock fields in the material master record are to be updated.
Return ->
Definition: movement type
Utilization Determination
Use
In this IMG activity, you specify which CENVAT accounts are to be debited by the Fortnight Utilization of CENVAT report: When the report calculates how much excise duty you must remit, it automatically proposes which CENVAT accounts the duty should be debited to. Here, you specify those defaults.
You can either:
· Debit all the excise duty to one account
· Debit the excise duty to more than one account, in which case you specify which percentage is to be debited to each account
Example
If you want 50% of basic excise duty (BED) to be debited to the RG 23A account and the remaining 50% to the RG 23C account, you would make the following settings:
Acct name BED perc.
RG 23A BED account 50
RG 23C BED account 50
Alternatively, to debit all of the BED to the RG 23A account, and then RG 23C account, if there is not enough in the RG 23A account, you would make the following settings:
Acct name BED perc. +
RG 23A BED account X
RG 23C BED account X
When you come to run the report, the system takes the RG 23A account because it is the first one you have entered. If this account does not cover the BED, the system takes the RG 23C account instead.
Maintain Minimum Balances for Excise Accounts
Use
In this IMG activity, you can maintain minimum balances in your excise accounts. When the balance in these accounts during utilization falls below this level, the system automatically utilizes funds in the PLA account.
Activities
Maintain the minimum balance amount for the excise accounts. If you have more than one excise group, you can maintain different minimum balances.
Specify SAPscript Forms
Use
In this IMG activity, for each of your company codes, you specify which SAPscript forms the system prints the excise registers with.
Standard settings
Country Version India includes a number of sample SAPscript forms and printing programs, which you can use as follows:
Reg. name Lay. no. Form Tcode/Prog
RG 23A Part I 1 J_2IRG23A_PART1 J_2IRAP1
RG 23C Part I 1 J_2IRG23C_PART1 J_2IRCP1
RG 23A Part II 1 J_2IRG23A_PART2 J_2IRAP2
RG 23C Part II 1 J_2IRG23C_PART2 J_2IRCP2
PLA 1 J_2I_PLA J_2IPLA
RG 23 D 1 J_2I_RG23D J_2IRG23
RG 1 1 J_2I_RG1 J_2IRRG1
RT 12 1 J_2I_RT12_ABSTRA J_2IRT12
RT 12 1 J_2I_RT12_ABSTRA J_2IRT12
RT 12 1 J_2I_RT12_3 J_2IRT12
The layout description can be left blank or an appropriate description maybe filled in. You may not change the register name. You can have your own layouts and maintain the name here. If the output device and number of copies are maintained it is automatically picked up for printing.
Number Ranges
You can maintain the number ranges for all CIN Number range objects using this transaction
Activities
Please maintain the number ranges for the folllowing objects The no nr has to be '01' for all

List of Manual Setup required for iSetup to work

Hi All,
This is Mugunthan from iSetup development. Based on my interaction with customers and Oracle functional experts, I had documented list of manual setups that are required for smooth loading of selection sets. I am sharing the same. Please let me know if I anyone had to enter some manual setup while using iSetup.
Understanding iSetup
iSetup is a tool to migrate and report on your configuration data. Various engineering teams from Oracle develop the APIs/Programs, which migrates the data across EBS instances. Hence all your data is validated for all business cases and data consistency is guarantied. It requires good amount of setup functional knowledge and bit of technical knowledge to use this tool.
Prerequisite setup for Instance Mapping to work
·     ATG patch set level should be same across all EBS instances.
·     Copy DBC files of each other EBS instances participating in migration under $FND_SECURE directory (refer note below for details).
·     Edit sqlnet.ora to allow connection between DB instacnes(tcp.invited_nodes=(<source>,<central>))
·     Make sure that same user name with iSetup responsibility exists in all EBS instances participating in migration.
Note:- iSetup tool is capable of connecting to multiple EBS instances. To do so, it uses dbc file information available under $FND_SECURE directory. Let us consider three instances A, B & C, where A is central instance, B is source instance and C is target instances. After copying the dbc file on all nodes, $FND_SECURE directory would look like this on each machine.
A => A.dbc, B.dbc, C.dbc
B => A.dbc, B.dbc
C => A.dbc, C.dbc
Prerequisite for registering Interface and creating Custom Selection Set
iSetup super role is mandatory to register and create custom selection set. It is not sufficient if you register API on central/source instance alone. You must register the API on all instances participating in migration/reporting.
Understanding how to access/share extracts across instances
Sharing iSetup artifacts
·     Only the exact same user can access extracts, transforms, or reports across different instances.
·     The “Download” capability offers a way to share extracts, transforms, and loads.
Implications for Extract/Load Management
·     Option 1: Same owner across all instances
·     Option 2: Same owner in Dev, Test, UAT, etc – but not Production
o     Extract/Load operations in non-Production instances
o     Once thoroughly tested and ready to load into Production, download to desktop and upload into Production
·     Option 3: Download and upload into each instance
Security Considerations
·     iSetup does not use SSH to connect between instances. It uses Concurrent Manager framework to lunch concurrent programs on source and target instances.
·     iSetup does not write password to any files or tables.
·     It uses JDBC connectivity obtained through standard AOL security layer
Common Incorrect Setups
·     Failure to complete/verify all of the steps in “Mapping instances”
·     DBC file should be copied again if EBS instance has been refreshed or autoconfig is run.
·     Custom interfaces should be registered in all EBS instances. Registering it on Central/Source is not sufficient.
·     Standard Concurrent Manager should up for picking up iSetup concurrent requests.
·     iSetup financial and SCM modules are supported from 12.0.4 onwards.
·     iSetup is not certified on RAC. However, you may still work with iSetup if you could copy the DBC file on all nodes with the same name as it had been registered through Instance Mapping screen.
Installed Languages
iSetup has limitations where it cannot Load or Report if the number and type of installed languages and DB Charset are different between Central, Source and Target instances. If your case is so, there is a workaround. Download the extract zip file to desktop and unzip it. Edit AZ_Prevalidator_1.xml to match your target instance language and DB Charset. Zip it back and upload to iSetup repository. Now, you would be able to load to target instance. You must ensure that this would not corrupt data in DB. This is considered as customization and any data issue coming out this modification is not supported.
Custom Applications
Application data is the prerequisite for the most of the Application Object Library setups such as Menus, Responsibility, and Concurrent programs. iSetup does not migrate Custom Applications as of now. So, if you have created any custom application on source instance, please manually create them on the target instance before moving Application Object Library (AOL) data.
General Foundation Selection Set
Setup objects in General foundation selection set supports filtering i.e. ability to extract specific setups. Since most of the AOL setup data such as Menus, Responsibilities and Request Groups are shipped by Oracle itself, it does not make sense to migrate all of them to target instance since they would be available on target instance. Hence, it is strongly recommended to extract only those setup objects, which are edited/added, by you to target instance. This improves the performance. iSetup uses FNDLOAD (seed data loader) to migrate most of the AOL Setups. The default behavior of FNDLOAD is given below.
Case 1 – Shipped by Oracle (Seed Data)
FNDLOAD checks last_update_date and last_updated_by columns to update a record. If it is shipped by Oracle, the default owner of the record would be Oracle and it would skip these records, which are identical. So, it won’t change last_update_by or last_updated_date columns.
Case 2 – Shipped by Oracle and customized by you
If a record were customized in source instance, then it would update the record based on last_update_date column. If the last_update_date in the target were more recent, then FNDLOAD would not update the record. So, it won’t change last_update_by column. Otherwise, it would update the records with user who customized the records in source instance.
Case 3 – Created and maintained by customers
If a record were newly added/edited in source instance by you, then it would update the record based on last_update_date column. If the last_update_date of the record in the target were more recent, then FNDLOAD would not update the record. So, it won’t change last_update_by column. Otherwise, it would update the records with user who customized the records in source instance.
Profiles
HR: Business Group => Set the name of the Business Group for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Business Group onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set appropriately.
HR: Security Profile => Set the name of the Business Group for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Business Group onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set appropriately.
MO: Operating Unit => Set the Operating Unit name for which you would like to extract data from source instance. After loading Operating Unit onto the target instance, make sure that this profile option is set if required.
Navigation path to do the above setup:
System Administrator -> Profile -> System.
Query for the above profiles and set the values accordingly.
Descriptive & Key Flex Fields
You must compile and freeze the flex field values before extracting using iSetup.
Otherwise, it would result in partial migration of data. Please verify that all the data been extracted by reporting on your extract before loading to ensure data consistency.
You can load the KFF/DFF data to target instance even the structures in both source as well as target instances are different only in the below cases.
Case 1:
Source => Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, and Loc4
Target=> Loc1, Loc2, Loc3 (Mandate), Loc4, Loc5 and Loc6
If you provide values for Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, Loc4, then locations will be loaded to target instance without any issue. If you do not provide value for Loc3, then API will fail, as Loc3 is a mandatory field.
Case 2:
Source => Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3, and Loc4
Target=> Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2
If you provide values for Loc1 (Mandate), Loc2 (Mandate), Loc3 and Loc4 and load data to target instance, API will fail as Loc3 and Loc4 are not there in target instance.
It is always recommended that KFF/DFF structure should be same for both source as well as target instances.
Concurrent Programs and Request Groups
Concurrent program API migrates the program definition(Definition + Parameters + Executable) only. It does not migrate physical executable files under APPL_TOP. Please use custom solution to migrate executable files. Load Concurrent Programs prior to loading Request Groups. Otherwise, associated concurrent program meta-data will not be moved even through the Request Group extract contains associated Concurrent Program definition.
Locations - Geographies
If you have any custom Geographies, iSetup does not have any API to migrate this setup. Enter them manually before loading Locations API.
Currencies Types
iSetup does not have API to migrate Currency types. Enter them manually on target instance after loading Currency API.
GL Fiscal Super user--> setup--> Currencies --> rates -- > types
Associating an Employee details to an User
The extract process does not capture employee details associated with users. So, after loading the employee data successfully on the target instance, you have to configure them again on target instance.
Accounting Setup
Make sure that all Accounting Setups that you wish to migrate are in status “Complete”. In progress or not-completed Accounting Setups would not be migrated successfully.
Note: Currently iSetup does not migrate Sub-Ledger Accounting methods (SLA). Oracle supports some default SLA methods such as Standard Accrual and Standard Cash. You may make use of these two. If you want to use your own SLA method then you need to manually create it on target instances because iSetup does not have API to migrate SLA. If a Primary Ledger associated with Secondary Ledgers using different Chart of Accounts, then mapping rules should be defined in the target instance manually. Mapping rule name should match with XML tag “SlCoaMappingName”. After that you would be able to load Accounting Setup to target instance.
Organization API - Product Foundation Selection Set
All Organizations which are defined in HR module will be extracted by this API. This API will not extract Inventory Organization, Business Group. To migrate Inventory Organization, you have to use Inventory Organization API under Discrete Mfg. and Distribution Selection Set. To extract Business Group, you should use Business Group API.
Inventory Organization API - Discrete Mfg & Distribution Selection Set
Inventory Organization API will extract Inventory Organization information only. You should use Inventory Parameters API to move parameters such as Accounting Information. Inventory Organization API Supports Update which means that you can update existing header level attributes of Inventory Organization on the target instance. Inventory Parameters API does not support update. To update Inventory Parameters, use Inventory Parameters Update API.
We have a known issue where Inventory Organization API migrates non process enabled organization only. If your inventory organization is process enabled, then you can migrate them by a simple workaround. Download the extract zip file to desktop and unzip it. Navigate to Organization XML and edit the XML tag <ProcessEnabledFlag>Y</ProcessEnabledFlag> to <ProcessEnabledFlag>N</ProcessEnabledFlag>. Zip it back the extract and upload to target instance. You can load the extract now. After successful completion of load, you can manually enable the flag through Form UI. We are working on this issue and update you once patch is released to metalink.
Freight Carriers API - Product Foundation Selection Set
Freight Carriers API in Product Foundation selection set requires Inventory Organization and Organization Parameters as prerequisite setup. These two APIs are available under Discrete Mfg. and Distribution Selection Set. Also,Freight Carriers API is available under Discrete Mfg and Distribution Selection Set with name Carriers, Methods, Carrier-ModeServ,Carrier-Org. So, use Discrete Mfg selection set to load Freight Carriers. In next rollup release Freight Carriers API would be removed from Product Foundation Selection Set.
Organization Structure Selection Set
It is highly recommended to set filter and extract and load data related to one Business Group at a time. For example, setup objects such as Locations, Legal Entities,Operating Units,Organizations and Organization Structure Versions support filter by Business Group. So, set the filter for a specific Business Group and then extract and load the data to target instance.
List of mandatory iSetup Fwk patches*
8352532:R12.AZ.A - 1OFF:12.0.6: Ignore invalid Java identifier or Unicode identifier characters from the extracted data
8424285:R12.AZ.A - 1OFF:12.0.6:Framework Support to validate records from details to master during load

7502698:R12.GL.A - Not able to Load Accounting Setup API Data to target instance.
Appendix_
How to read logs
·     Logs are very important to diagnose and troubleshoot iSetup issues. Logs contain both functional and technical errors.
·     To find the log, navigate to View Detail screens of Extracts/ Transforms/Loads/Standard/Comparison Reports and click on View Log button to view the log.
·     Generic Loader (FNDLOAD or Seed data loader) logs are not printed as a part of main log. To view actual log, you have to take the request_id specified in the concurrent log and search for the same in Forms Request Search Window in the instance where the request was launched.
·     Functional errors are mainly due to
o     Missing prerequisite data – You did not load one more perquisite API before loading the current API. Example, trying to load “Accounting Setup” without loading “Chart of Accounts” would result in this kind of error.
o     Business validation failure – Setup is incorrect as per business rule. Example, Start data cannot be greater than end date.
o     API does not support Update Records – If the there is a matching record in the target instance and If the API does not support update, then you would get this kind of errors.
o     You unselected Update Records while launching load - If the there is a matching record in the target instance and If you do not select Update Records, then you would get this kind of errors.
Example – business validation failure
o     VONAME = Branches PLSQL; KEY = BANKNAME = 'AIBC‘
o     BRANCHNAME = 'AIBC'
o     EXCEPTION = Please provide a unique combination of bank number, bank branch number, and country combination. The 020, 26042, KA combination already exists.
Example – business validation failure
o     Tokens: VONAME = Banks PLSQL
o     BANKNAME = 'OLD_ROYAL BANK OF MY INDIA'
o     EXCEPTION = End date cannot be earlier than the start date
Example – missing prerequisite data.
o     VONAME = Operating Unit; KEY = Name = 'CAN OU'
o     Group Name = 'Setup Business Group'
o     ; EXCEPTION = Message not found. Application: PER, Message Name: HR_ORG_SOB_NOT_FOUND (Set of books not found for ‘Setup Business Group’)
Example – technical or fwk error
o     OAException: System Error: Procedure at Step 40
o     Cause: The procedure has created an error at Step 40.
o     Action: Contact your system administrator quoting the procedure and Step 40.
Example – technical or fwk error
o     Number of installed languages on source and target does not match.

Open Purchase Orders not considered as requirement for MRP Run

Hi ,
We are facing a issue of Open Purchase orders not appeared in Stock requirements list and also it is not considered as requirement for MRP Run against reservation.
As aresult for a reservation demand of 10 units we are ending with Open POs 10 units and a additional planned order 10 units.
Material Type : ERSA
MRP Type : PD (or VB)
Lot size : EX ( HB if MRP Type is VB)
Could you please throw some light to correct our settings to MRP to consider Open POs?
Saravanan

Can you check to see if there is a re-order point set up for this materia? That could be causing the problem too.

Lync 2013 certificate requirements for multiple SIP domains

Hi All,
I am engaged with a client in respect of a Lync 2013 implementation initially as a conferencing platform with a view to enabling EV functions (inc. PSTN conferencing) in the future. They initially need to support 30 SIP domains and eventually
around 100 SIP domains which is proving to be either not possible or severely cost prohibitive. Their current certificate provider, Thawte, can only support up to 25 SANs and have quoted them 5 figures. We tend to use GeoTrust as they are cheaper but they
appear to have a limit of 25 SANs. GoDaddy appear to support up to 100 SANs for a pretty reasonable cost. My questions are as follows:
Is there a way that I’m missing of reducing the number of SANs required on the Edge server?
Use aliases for access edge FQDNs - Supported by desktop client but not by other devices so not really workable
Don’t support XMPP federation therefore removing the need for domain name FQDNs for each SIP domain
Is there a way that I’m missing of reducing the number of SANs required on the Reverse Proxy server?
Friendly URL option 3 from this page:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398287.aspx
Client auto-configuration:
i.
Don’t support mobile client auto-configuration in which case no lyncdiscover.sipdomain1.com DNS records or SANs would be required.
ii.
Support mobile client auto-configuration over HTTP only in which case CNAME records are required for each SIP domain (lyncdiscover.sipdomain1.com, etc. pointing to lyncdiscover.designateddomain.com) but no SANs are required.
iii.
Support mobile client auto-configuration over HTTPS in which case DNS records are required for each SIP domain and a SAN entry for each SIP domains is also required. This is because a DNS CNAME to another domain is not supported over
HTTPS.
If the answer to 1 and/or 2 is no, are there certificate providers that support over 100 SANs?
How do certificate requirements differ when using the Lync 2013 hosting pack? I would think that this issue is something that a hosting provider would need to overcome.
Would the Lync 2013 Hosting Pack work for this customer? The customer uses SPLA licensing so I think is eligible to use the hosting pack but not 100% sure it will work in their environment given that client connections are supposed
to all come through the Edge where their tenants will be internal and also given the requirement for an ACP for PSTN conferencing.
Many thanks,

Many thanks for the response.
I was already planning to use option 3 from the below page for simple URLs to cut down on SAN requirement.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398287.aspx
What are the security concerns for publishing autodiscover over port 80? I.e. Is this only used for the initial download of the discovery record and then HTTPS is used for authentication? This seems to be the case from the following note on the below page:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/hh690030.aspx
Mobile device clients do not support multiple Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates from different domains. Therefore, CNAME redirection to different domains is not supported over HTTPS. For example, a DNS CNAME record for lyncdiscover.contoso.com that redirects
to an address of director.contoso.net is not supported over HTTPS.
In such a topology, a mobile device client needs to use HTTP for the first request, so that the CNAME redirection is resolved over HTTP. Subsequent requests then use HTTPS. To support this scenario, you need to configure your reverse proxy with a web publishing
rule for port 80 (HTTP).
For details, see "To create a web publishing rule for port 80" in Configuring the Reverse Proxy for Mobility. CNAME redirection to the same domain is supported over HTTPS. In this case, the destination domain's certificate covers the originating
domain.”
I don’t think SRV records for additional SIP domain access edge is a workable solution as this is not supported by some devices.
As per the below article:
http://blog.schertz.name/2012/07/lync-edge-server-best-practices/
“The recommended approach for external client Automatic Sign-In when supporting multiple SIP domains is to include a unique Access Edge FQDN for each domain name in the SAN field. This is no longer a requirement (it was in OCS) as it is possible to
create a DNS Service Locator Record (SRV) for each additional SIP domain yet have them all point back to the same original FQDN for the Access Edge service (e.g. sip.mslync.net).
This approach will trigger a security alert in Windows Lync clients which can be accepted by the user, but some other clients and devices are unable to connect when the Automatic Sign-In process returns a pair of SRV and Host (A) records which do not share
the same domain namespace. Thus it is still best practice to define a unique FQDN for each additional SIP domain and include that hostname in the external Edge certificate’s SAN field”.
===================
1. Basically the requirement is to initially provide Lync conferencing services (minus PSTN conferencing) to internal, external, federated and anonymous participants with a view to providing PSTN conferencing and therefore enterprise voice services later.
2. The customer currently supports close to 100 SMTP domains and wants to align their SIP domains with these existing domains. The structure of their business is such that “XXX IT Services” provide the IT infrastructure for a collection of companies who
fall under the XXX umbrella but are very much run as individual entities.
Question:
Would you agree that I’m going to need a SAN for every SIP domain’s access edge FQDN?
Thanks.

Additional customization is required for HR WF (HR trans Event trigger)?
