Auditing in HRMS

Hi Guys,
Could I get few pointers from auditing point of view?
What procedures we can adopt, what reports to run and how to control user access?
There are some concurrent programs which maintain security, I am not sure which ones and how frequently we should run them?
I know some auditors recommending that we should put a profile option in place which would show number of unsuccessful attempts made by user to login, are there any more features?
Your help would be very much appreciated. :-)

Hello,
Here are a few things that I find useful:
System Administrator Reports:
- Active Responsibilities and Users
- Signon Audit Users
- Users of a Responsibility
From the standard documentation sets, I find these highly useful:
- Oracle E-Business Suite System Administrator's Guide - Security
- Oracle HRMS Configuring, Reporting, and System Administration Guide
These are available on My Oracle Support > Knowledge > Online Documentation > E-Business Suite Documentation
If you have specific audit requirements (SOX, DPA, etc.), then it would be helpful to define those and then determine how you can meet those requirements. You can use Audit Trail, but that should be used with caution.
I hope you find this useful.
Best regards,
Mark Pescatrice

What is Audit Trail in Oracle HRMS?

Hi
Plz give me idea about Audit Trail in Oracle HRMS.

Audit trail in HRMS is same as in any other module except the fact there is one extra process needs to be run in HRMS to make sure that it can handle date track data.
Coming to its use, it all depends on what your business requirements are and how much performance hit you are ready to take.

In oracle hrms

would like to know what are the roles of a system administrator in an oracle hrms erp system
thank you for all ur comments in advance!

A System Administrator is a person responsible for controlling access to Oracle Applications and assuring smooth ongoing operation. Each site where Oracle Applications is installed needs a system administrator to perform tasks such as:
• Managing and controlling security
• Setting up new users.
• Auditing user activity.
• Managing concurrent processing.
This is reponsibility is not specific to HRMS and its centerally required to for all ERP products.

Request Tips for Setting up Test Modules (HRMS, AR, AP) in R12

Hi
I am fairly new to Oracle Financials and recently installed R12 on my linux box for trying and testing. My question may sound silly to many but please bear with me. After Installation I could login with SYSADMIN account and I can see Oracle E Business Suite, Oracle Applications Home Page.
On the lefthand side I can see the following options.
Application Developer
Application Diagnostics
Auditing Manager
CRM HTML Administration
CRM HTML Developer
Integrated SOA Gateway
Preferences SSWA
System Administration
System Administrator
User Management
Workflow Administrator Web Applications
Workflow User Web Applications
Now my question is how can I goto the screens of HRMS or Account Receivables etc from where I can customize the module. For example, if I want to define the chart of accounts, form where shall I start since the options listed above dont mention anything related to Accounts or HR or Inventory etc.
Any help will be appreciated.
Please note that I chose almost all the options during the installation time therefore I am 100% sure that these modules must have been installed.
Thank you all in advance.

HRMS Mutating Custom Trigger Error

Hi Gurus! In Oracle 10.7 SC HRMS, the column PERSON_TYPE_ID in table PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F was used to populate the actual person type. In releases 11+, this column was redesigned to hold just the default user_person_type for a given system_person_type. It is not maintained to reflect the true user person type. Only the table person_type_usages_f will give you the true user_person_type. (Note: column PERSON_TYPE_ID in table PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F is ONLY used by non-HR areas, such as Purchasing)
This link explains this:
http://www.aboutoracleapps.com/2008/07/difference-between-perallpeoplefpersont.html
My issue- our client upgraded from 10.7 to R12. The issue is that their custom code (a lot of it) looks at the column PERSON_TYPE_ID in table PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F to determine the actual person type.
Since my client doesnt use Purchasing (or any other modules), and they have LOTS of custom code that looks at the PERSON_TYPE_ID column, it was decided that we would just populate that column with the correct person type.
We created a trigger on the PER_PERSON_TYPE_USAGES_F table. Basically, any time a person type changes, the PERSON_TYPE_ID column is updated in the PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F table. Simple update.
The problem is, we get a mutating table error. Does anyone see why? Or how my logic is not sound? Thank you.
Trigger:
BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON "APPS"."PER_PERSON_TYPE_USAGES_F" FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
     UPDATE PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F
     SET PERSON_TYPE_ID = :new.person_type_id
     WHERE person_id = :NEW.person_id
     AND sysdate BETWEEN effective_start_date AND effective_end_date;

Jason,
you should push to change your custom code.
Direct update over seeded tables is not supported by Oracle.
per_people_f updates are allowed only through front end or API, and I doubt there is an API to update the person_Type_id.
Furthermore it's way a bloody road to have the trigger, maintain it over upgrades and patches, have it firing at the right time (order in which they fire is not predictable), have data the consistent if you eventually upgrade to iREc o Benefits (when the person type could become ex-Employee.Applicant....).
I believe triggers on per_people_f are not recommendable (except for auditing). You should create your custom function and substitute any person_type_id occurrence with your custom function (or use the hr_person_type_usage_info.get_user_person_type or another if suit you well).
If you are upgrading from 10.7 to 12i, a lot of rework should be envisaged, so there should be room to create a business case to stick to oracle standard and adjust your custom code. Indeed you should check wth Oracle if what proposed is actually supported by them, this would eventually make your recomendation accepted.
my 2c.

Managing&Auditing Database Physical files.

Hi all,
Sorry if I posted this issue in this forum.
I have just this problem in monitoring and auditing oracle files and disk spaces in our Windows server.
We have a server farm of around 20 Windows server, for global centralized test servers.
Each server has different versions of Oracle DB, and maybe contain more than 10 database/intance (small test DBs).
So we monitor around 200+ Databases.
We run backup daily for each db using cold backup and maintain at least 1week retention files.
We we have around 5x10x200 backup zip files.
We also monitor all the Physical list of DB_home folders and it corresponding .dbf files and timestamp.
What I did is map all the hardrive from each servers on my laptop to I can read all and audit all the physical files.
I want to have a centralized list of the files associated with the database in spreadsheets and update it periodically.
My question is how can I run a list cascade command that will list all the files and sub-directories and saved in in .csv or excel file?
Is it like "ls -lt">list.log in linux.
Thanks

XML Publisher Report Finished in Warning 11i EBS HRMS

Hi there
I have developed XML Publisher Report using Developer 6i Data Module, this report works fine for specific sets of records. but When I run this report for All Companies This Report Finished in Warning.
Note: XML Data is generated in this report I can see the XML Data in explorer.
This report is for Oracle 11.5.10.2 (HRMS)
Oracle XML Publisher 5.6 Build 45
++++++++++++
AND When I load this XML file into Template at MS Word, I loaded Successfully and When I try to get the PREVIEW, I GET the following ERROR
Font Dir: C:\Program Files\Oracle\XML Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\fonts
Run XDO Start
RTFProcessor setLocale: en-us
FOProcessor setData: M:\ATCO\Disco\Employee Profile Report\Defect\119\XXPEREMPPROFILE4.xml
FOProcessor setLocale: en-us
Regards
ASIM

Is the XML file Complete with all tags closed? Issues with Oracle prevent the completion of the XML file. It truncates in between and hence is not parsed successfully by the XML Template.
Also, try setting the following to 'TRUE' under XML Publisher Administrator>Administration Tab
1) Use XML Publisher's XSLT processor.
2) Enable scalable feature of XSLT processor.
3) Enable XSLT runtime optimization.

Steps to troubleshoot and get past common problems with Audition

When you encounter a problem with Audition, the following steps are often useful for getting past the problem and/or determining the cause of the problem:
1. Hold down SHIFT while you launch Audition
     This overrides the preference files and launches Audition using the default settings.
2. Manually rename or delete the preferences folder
     Step 1 only overrides certain preference files, while others such as Workspace preference files, may be the cause of the problem. Depending on your OS, locate the "5.0" folder in the location below and rename it or delete it.
     Windows XP: C:\Document and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Adobe\Audition\5.0\
     Windows Vista/7: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\5.0\ *
     Mac OS X: ~\Library\Preferences\Adobe\Audition\5.0\ **
          * "AppData" may be a hidden folder. You can type it into the location bar, or enable "Show Hidden Files" in Windows.
          ** This is your user-level Library folder, not the system-level tree.
3. Check your Audition Log.txt file
     To enable a log file with CS 5.5, you must create an empty file in your preferences folder called "Audition Log.txt" using notepad, text edit, or any other editor. After you create this file, launch Audition and if it fails, open and/or share the log file for more specific information about what's happening.
4. Check the Operating System console or error log
     Both OS X and Windows can track application errors, and if the problem is occurring outside of the application code - a driver conflict, for example - then the OS error report may be more informative than what we can get from the application.
     OS X: launch /Applications/Utilities/Console.app   Clear the view, then launch Audition and note any error messages that appear.
     Windows: launch Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Application then launch Audition and note any error messages that appear.
5. Re-install Audition
     If at this point, nothing has resolved the issue or the error logs are inconclusive, it's a good time to uninstall Audition, reboot, and reinstall Audition.
6. Obtain the full crash dump and send it to the Adobe team
     So you've walked through all the above steps, you've disconnected any external hardware interfaces to rule out any device or driver conflicts, and you've exhausted the basic troubleshooting steps. Visit http://forums.adobe.com/thread/900619 and follow the steps for your OS that Charles has documented to best obtain a full crash memory dump for Audition, and send that to [email protected] with a description of the problem and the steps you've taken, and we'll take a look.

Firstly yes these are common problems and secondly hopefully they will be fixed with updated software 2.1 which is due for release this coming Firday!

How to open .AC3 files in Audition CS5.5

As the latest Adobe Audition 5.5 does not have the codec/plugin for opening .AC3 files, I need to download and install the latest QuickTime player for the required codec/plugin.
However, after installing the QuickTime Player, Audition 5.5 seemed to open the .AC3 file I've selected but the whole duration of the AC3 file is blank and has nothing in the waveform. I could not hear anything during the playback.
The fact is that when the AC3 file is playing through the Windows Media Player 12 with AC3Filter, the file can be heard and has no error.
Does anyone know the solution to this issue?

5.1 Surround Export from Audition Gives "Header Error" in Premiere

Hello - I have a finished surround mix that has been exported to 5 mono stems that I need to use for a DVD. In Audition CC 2014 I created a new multitrack session and selected the, "Surround Stems for Video Master" template. I verified that all stems are playing on the audio meter and then selected Export / Multitrack Mixdown / Entire Session. In the export window I selected Wave PCM, 48000 Hz, 5.1, 16 Bit. The resulting file for the 2:15:00 project is 4.8 GB. It plays fine in Finder and VLC. When I try to import the 5.1 Wave file into Premiere CC 2014 I get an error that says, "The file cannot be opened because of a header error."
In Audition I have RF64 support selected. Is this possibly a file size issue being over 4 GB? If I set in and out points in Audition and use the same export settings the file imports into Premiere successfully. I need to use the full quality of the audio file when I export the Dolby AC3 file from Premiere so I do not want to compress this. Is there any setting that I can change in Premiere? Has anyone else had success importing a surround file that is larger than 4GB on a Mac?
Thank you!
Specs: iMac, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, latest OS, latest versions of Adobe CC (PP 8.0, Audition 7.0)

I've had the same issue. Export audio to a MOV or AVI file format in Audition or audacity. They are movie containers, but hold audio as well, and will get past the 4gb file size limit.
Unfortunately, you cannot export back out of Premiere to audition straight out. You will have to do one of the following to get it to work how you want:
1. Blade at several points along your initial clips, and then edit in audition (the new spare files will be in place and will work just fine).
2. Use the MOV or AVI audio to replace the audio in the session once you get there.
On the send back to premiere, you'll have to conform to MOV or AVI audio PCM. Its a bit more work than most are used to, as you'd expect it to "know" the file is too big, but it really cannot tell from the container. If a limit of a file is about an hour of audio at 96k32bit float, then they could hard limit that by seconds count, and switch to using MOV instead, which would still function normally, and they wouldn't have to do anything else. Or they could add support for W64 and larger formats.

Adobe Audition has encountered a problem and needs to close.

I have been using Audition 2.0 on this computer for quite some time and suddenly now when I open it, I get the cryptic error dialogue:
"Adobe Audition has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. For more information about this error, click here."
When I click for more information, it's something useless like:
AppName: audition.exe AppVer: 2.0.5306.2 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 65726168
Nothing on my computer has changed. There are no viruses. I have not added any new audio plug-ins. I am completely up to date with all critical Windows XP SP3 updates and none have been downloaded and installed recently anyway.
I searched the knowledgebase and found a document that suggesting many things to try. I tried them all, including running the Windows hard disk "check disk" tool with options to fix file system errors and recover bad sectors. I also defragmented the hard drive. Lastly, I completely uninstalled Audition, then manually deleted any remaining files, including registry entries as suggested in another knowledgebase article.
I then re-installed Audition 2.0 and it did exactly the same thing! This it maddening. Now it gets even more interesting. I discovered that if I start up the
Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit that Adobe Audition installed also, then try to launch Audition from the toolkit, IT STARTS CORRECTLY! I can then close the toolkit and use it like normal. Weird work-around.
What the heck could possibly be going on? Anyone have any ideas? I've attached the error log file that is generated by the error but I doubt it will be of much help.
Thanks!
Steve in Chicago

stevefoobar2: I may have found a solution for you.
I had the same thing happen to me today. I was using Audition 2 this morning without any problems. But this afternoon, it started giving me the exact same error with no apparent reason. Nothing on my system had changed.
So I uninstalled it and installed Audition 3 in its place. Audition 3 continued to have the same problem that Audition 2 had, so we can assume that this is not something that was changed between versions.
But my attention was brought to the fact that you and I are both running Windows XP SP3 fully up-to-date. So I thought I'd try seeing it from the angle of a problem with Windows instead of Audition, and see if I didn't get a better result -
First, I logged on to Windows as Administrator. This may or may not be required, but you'll probably want to do it just in case (you'll see what I mean later). At this point, Audition still crashed the same way when I opened it, so I moved on to my next troubleshooting strategy -
Instead of opening Audition directly, I right-clicked the Audition icon and selected "Run as..." This may seem odd since I was already logged in as Administrator, but it proved to be the solution in my case.
In the "Run As" diolog, there are two main options: run as current user, or run as another user.
Since I was already logged in as Administrator, I could safely select the first option (run as current user). But here's the catch: selecting the first option allowed me to UNcheck the box underneath that says "Protect my computer and data from unauthorized program activity" (see the attached picture)
Audition opened without any problems when I did this.
This makes me think that one of the Windows security features suddenly decided to block something that Audition was trying to do, crashing the program in the process. By turning off this security feature, the problem was solved. And I only had to do it once. Every time afterwards, Audition has opened without any problems when I simply open it from my desktop. Perhaps Windows now remembers not to block Audition in the future.
However, I have not restarted my computer yet, or logged off as Administrator. You may need to tweak this solution if you plan to do either of these things. You may end up having to "Run as" Audition every time you restart your computer or log off. You may even need to select the SECOND option, and run the program as Administrator with the appropriate password.
Anyway, this was the only post I could find on Adobe.com concerning this problem, so I thought I'd post my solution in case it helped someone else.
