Grants for non-apps user to view APIs in oracle application module browser

Hi,
Im trying to make a connection with E-Business Suite using the Oracle Applications Adapter and the Enterprise Service Bus. I follow all the steps for creating the connection pools, connection data sources and connection factories using the standar apps user. After setting up the environment I can drag the oracle applications adapter to a ESB project and choose from all the modules available the especific functionality I want.
The problem comes when I try to use a user different from apps. When I try to set the connection with other user no E-Business Suite modules are display in the Adapter wizard.
Are there any specific privileges I should set up to this database user (non-apps) to give him acces to API, XML Gateways, Tables/views,Business Events, etc??.

Could you let me know the procedure/steps to assign privileges and/or responsibilities for new oracle apps userI understand this is for an application user.
when I am trying to import a journalAgain, you have to run this as an application user.
Same import is working fine with default Oracle applications 11i "APPS" user.APPS is a database user (NOT an application user). So, the Application user you want to create and assign him responsibilities has nothing to do with the database user. If you assign the same responsibilities which the other user has (the one which you use to import journals) to the new application user, then you should be able to do the task successfully.

Integrate Oracle Applications with local HTML DB to run APIs

Hi,
Iam new to HTML DB. I have few questions in my mind to clarify.
Currently iam working on API testing in one of the Oracle Application module.
During the API testing we call some APIs(usually some packaged procedures) from SQL Plus and check for the business rules and print the results to the SQL terminal using dbms_output.put_line. We have several test cases and for each test case we execute an API from the backend.
Now after going thru the HTML DB forum i got an idea that i will develop a HTML page in my local HTML DB for all these test cases where i will select the test case that needs to be executed and run it and the results are published on the web page.
Question-1: Can i integrate my oracle apps with my local HTML DB so that i can call those APIs ? If yes, how can we do it ?
Question-2: Can i call my plsql procedures from the HTML DB on a button click ?
Thanks,
Raj.

Oracle Applications Adapter responds with error in the API call

Hi,
I am using SOA suite 10.1.3.5.
I have configured the Oracle Applications Adapter to call the payable open import interface (APXIIMPT) concurrent program.
I am passing two mandatory parameters Source and BatchName to it.
Before that i have also correctly inserted data into AP_INVOICES_INTERFACE and AP_LINES_INVOICE_INTERFACE tables.
The invoice is getting created from the oracle apps 11i instance if i try from the front end but my BPEL OA adapter is responding with
following error :-
<REQUEST_ID>0
</REQUEST_ID>
<RETURN_CODE>2
</RETURN_CODE>
<RETURN_MESSAGE>
Cannot find application information for short name
Cannot find rows while selecting for application short name .
Check if the application short name is valid. Contact your System Administrator.
</RETURN_MESSAGE>
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

You are getting customized error as a SOAP Fault from PeopleSoft application.
Regarding 3 responses, your send port might have retry count = 3 set in your send port. Hence you are getting 3 faults on each request you are making.
Now coming to the actual issue, when something goes wrong and you got fault message response, you need to deal with it. Means your orchestration send port will have "Response" and "Fault" response and you will deal with these messages respectively.
You need to assign MessageTypes for Response and Fault accordingly.
If you have done all above and still getting an error, check this
hotfix 978156 which is applicable in case of 2k6R2 and 2009 biztalk versions and happens while dealing with cross object conversion (datetime)

Oracle Application Single Sign-On

Dear All,
We have a requirement that there should be single sign-on for the users to use both the Oracle and non-Oracle Applications. We are using Oracle Application Server 10g at the back end.
How to enable single sign-on. Is there any tool that we need to install.
Pls guide us as we are entirely new to this process.
Regards,
Rajani

Hi,
You need to install and configure Oracle Internet directory and Single Sign On compontents of Oracle Application server 10g in order to have the Single Sign On working with Oracle Applications. After the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure tier installation there is addition integration steps you need to follow to integrate the Single Sign on with Oracle E-business suite. You can use DIP features ( Directory Integration and Provisiotion) to integrate with Third party directory server like Micrososft AD, Sun directory server etc. for Integrating the non oracle based application i think you have to use oracle single sign on API and you need to do bit of coding as well. You can also enble single sign on for database users but this requires advance security option enabled on the Database side and finally you can integrate Single sign on for OS users as well.

XML Publisher in Oracle Applications - Merge PDFs in Templates

Requirement,
I have PDF files stored in Huge Blob columns in a oracle apps tables.
I would like to make a single PDF using the XML publisher template to merge all these PDFs into a single PDF file and show the merged PDF file, when user clicks on view output of the concurrent programme.
I am not interesed in using the Java apis provided as of now. I would like to acheive this using only template builder, without any java coding.
Any help would be appreciated on how to build the template. I have tried displaying images and it worked and i am not sure how i can do the samething with PDF files stored in HUGE BLOB columns.
Oracle XML Publisher Version is 5.6.3 which is being used by our Oracle Applications.
Thanks

SQL types over PLSQL types while using Oracle Applications adapter in BPEL

Use SQL types over PL/SQL types while using Oracle Applications adapter
in BPEL/ ESB
This document will be focusing on Oracle Applications adapter. However Database adapter is much like OA adapter (even OA adapter uses DB Adapter), so the readers who are interested to explore DB adapters, can relate things with this document and go further as well.
Some Guidelines for writing PL/SQL APIs for OA Adapter
As we know when we create a partner link from the OA adapter wizard it sometimes writes some wrapper script supportive to the OA Adapter WSDL which contains below
* Object type for PL/SQL RECORD
* Nested table of the given type for PL/SQL TABLE. For example, the nested table of NUMBER.
* INTEGER substituted for PL/SQL BOOLEAN
* Wrapper Script for converting above three set of data types . (PLSQL to SQL and SQL to PLSQL conversion functions)
In runtime this wrapper script for converting PL/SQL to SQL and SQL to PL/SQL is an extra overhead.
So the first advice would be to avoid the use of the below as parameters of PLSQL API being called by OA Adapter.
* PL/SQL RECORD
* PL/SQL TABLE. For example, the nested table of NUMBER.
* PL/SQL BOOLEAN
In other way we can say we should try to use only SQL data types in arguments if we are planning to call any PL/SQL API from the OA Adapter.
If the requirement is to use a table or record uses the Object type. In place of BOOLEAN better to use VARCHAR or INTEGER what ever fulfills your requirement. Following this guideline we can reduce a huge number of Line of codes to be run each time the adapter being called.
Generally, Oracle E-Biz standard APIs use PL/SQL record types and table types so when there is a requirement to call these API’s from OA Adapter (this is a common requirement in development), and if we directly browse the API in OA Adapter Configuration Wizard and create the partner link, again a huge number of code is written by the wizard in the wrapper script (a number of extra mapping of fields which are not being used in the interface).
In this case better would be to create an Object type with only the required fields which are being used in that call and use them as parameters for the PLSQL API.

How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.

Integration with Oracle Applications from composite applications

Hello all ,
I'm trying to connect to eBusiness Suite via Oracle Applications adapter from the Jdevelopver - all on SOA 11g platform . And I want to insert an purchase order from supply chain business domain .
The problem is the order has and header and more lines and for it I have two different API's exposed from E Business Suite - but in the Oracle Adapter wizard only one API can be add it when the operation is build .
What is the practice or recommendations in this case ? Where I will set the transaction ?
Do you have some samples around this kind of operations ?
Many thanks in advance,
Stefan

I'm not from Oracle, but here is my opinion:
Right now it seems like from what I've seen, the apps and the rest of Oracle
are just getting started in their integration process with Portal.
This means that they are starting to:
1) Certify the apps with 9iAS r2.
2) Build portlets for the apps.
This process is at LEAST 6-12 months away from seeing any
portlet packages out for apps. Again, some apps will happen
before others.

Oracle Pl/Sql and Oracle Application Express for Beginners

Good day,
Have a prodigy that is strongly interested in oracle application express.Haven know that he will only do we in APEX if he is good in pl/sql and have some skills in html and javascripts.
For such person,what are the books that i can recommend for him,that will guide and assist him?Will be highly grateful if anybody can assist.

I think it also falsely gives the impression that one does not need to understand the database at all because Apex can do everything for you...This is why I echo Munky when he says that you need a solid understanding of data models and the database before attempting to build an application.
I absolutely concur with this view. When I first started using ApEx, I was basically given a user guide and told to get on with it :-) Subsequently, for the first 6 months or so, I built probably fairly lousy (but functional) apps until I got a better grasp of Oracle architecture.
That being said, SQL is an absolute must if you are going to work on a database. PL/SQL really should be learned as well because your application will be limited without it. CSS and Javascript and nice to have's, but they can be learned as you go. Since all of the api's are built in pl/sql, it would really hinder what you could do if you didn't know it.One resource I have found very useful is the good old 'Ant' book a.k.a. Oracle PL/SQL Programming by Feuerstein, et al. I have a well-thumbed 4th edition sitting on my desk at the moment - weirdly for a text book, rather a joy to read.
I personally found Jay-Lew's "Cost-based Oracle Fundamentals" a somewhat bitterer pill to swallow - tough on the way down but good for one's constitution!
