Bill Presentment Architecture, how to Overide Default Rule and ensure the AR Invoice/Transaction Chooses "Customer Transaction Data Source"

Hi Intelligentsia,
we are on 12.2.4 on linux, i have setup external template with supplementary Data source as "Customer Transaction Data Source", when i test it fails, i am not able to debug it , however when i run the BPA Transaction Print Program (Multiple Languages) it always gives me the default layout.
Query is
How do i ensure the Default rule Does not apply to my Invoice and i am able to override it
is there a method to explicitly Ensure the Supplementary Data Source as "Customer Transaction Data Source", when i am creating the AR Invoice/ Transaction? Am i missing some setup in AR Invoice Transaction Flexfield where i need to setup this "Customer Transaction Data Source" as the DFF Context ?
please let me know if you need any more information.
Abdulrahman

Hello,
Thanks for the answer. When you say rule data is that Rule creation date or the "Bill Creation From Date" that we setup while creating the rule? I have created a new invoice after the rule created, but it did not pick the new custom template.
I have another issue. It would be greate if you could help. I have split my logo area into 2 vertically to display logo in one and legal entity and addres on the other one. In the Online Preview I can see the logo and Legal address. But in the print preview , i am not able to see them. It just shows a blank space. Any Idea?
Thanks in advance

Bill Presentment Architecture help please

Hello,
This is the first time that I am using BPA.
We need to add additional information to our Invoice and need to change the format. I have created a custom template for our invoice Print using Bill presentment Architecture. It looks good when I open the document through “Interactive Preview” of the BPA. I have created a rule and assigned the template to the new rule. I queried a transaction and clicked the eyeglass symbol, but it still shows the “Default Invoice Template”. I also ran the seeded program “BPA Transaction Print Program” expecting to see the custom template format. But I still see the default template in the output.
I have an issue with Interactive Preview as well. Online Preview looks good with all the logo and additional information in Logo area. But the Print Preview doesn’t show the logo area at all.
Could somebody please help us to resolve these issues?
Thanks in advance!

How to make a RTF-Template for the Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA)

Hallo,
I search a way to make an external RTF-template for the Oracle Receivables Balance Forward - Detail report in the Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA).
I've never done that.
I don't know how to get a XML-file of this request to use for the creation of the RTF-file.
And so I don't know how to specify in the RTF the LOOPs for the Lines and other If-conditions and so on.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

HI,
Can you please help me in finding XML output for Invoice Print BPA Child Program. I have tried changing the output format to XML but no luck. If you can send me any suggestion to my email address [email protected] would be very helpful.
Also, Did you try adding any conditional formatting (eg. <?if:column_name='value'?>) in RTF template? is it working?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
In the document we found that BPA has seeded 7 templates: Default Invoice Template, Default Oracle Service Contracts Template, Default Credit Memo Template, Default Debit Memo Template, Default Chargeback Template, Default Guarantee Template, Default Deposit Template.
But we able to see only Default Invoice Template, Default Oracle Service Contracts Template. We are not able to figure it out. Can anybody help us in this regard.
And the request "Invoice Print BPA Master Program" there is only Invoice for the transaction class field. If we want credit or debit memo as class or anything relevant what should we do?
Thanks.

You just search on 'Default%' for the Template Name and you should be able to see all.
Also as I understand Invoice Print BPA Master program can be invoked for Chargeback, Credit Memo, Debit Memo, Deposit, Gurantee and Invoice
Seems your settings dont allow you to access everything.
Thanks

Hi,
The events of BDT can be used to default some fields on creating a partner.
For this create a function module for ISDAT. attach that event in BUS7.
In the ISDAT funtion modulethe following code should be used.
For example to set the nationality:
I_BUSDEFAULT-NATIO = 'DE.
CALL FUNCTION 'BUP_BUPA_FIELDVALUES_SET'
EXPORTING
i_busdefault = I_BUSDEFAULT

How to reset junk rules and restart training?

My junk mail system has evidently developed a problem -- won't remember things that should be learned, and so on. How do I reset the junk rules and restart the training process? I think I've read somewhere that there's a file that has to be trashed, but I can't locate a likely candidate.
Thanks,
Steve.

The thing is, what Roger suggested doesn’t reset the junk filter. It just resets the database that stores what the junk filter learns through training, which may accomplish what you want, but is not what you asked.
To fully reset the junk filter, you must proceed as follows:
1. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail, disable junk mail filtering, then enable it again. This resets the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
2. Choose either Training or Automatic mode (it doesn’t matter) and leave the other options checked. Click Advanced to see how the junk filter rule is defined now if you want, but don’t touch anything there unless you really know what you’re doing.
3. Reset the junk filter database (Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset).
4. You may also want to open Window > Previous Recipients and get rid of any addresses that you don’t want Mail to treat as legit.

Earlier, I wrote:

I can't believe this conversation has gone on this long. You keep wanting it to be a bug, but it seems to me the basic problem here is that you haven't accepted the fact that YOU are responsible for getting the image metadata in order before you can use tools like the Ruler to read out in physical units, such as inches or centimeters, accurately.
Photoshop can only know the size of things in your document if you or your workflow provide it an accurate ppi value!
What's the original source of the material? A scanner? If so, some part of the scanning or image preparation process has left you with an inaccurate ppi value.
For the documents you're already working with, use Image - Image Size, then UNcheck the Resample Image checkbox and type in the correct ppi value. Then everything will work.

How to create Default Schema from within the application

Hi friends
I am creating users using the following within my application using this syntax
BEGIN
APEX_UTIL.CREATE_USER
(:P124_USER_ID, :P124_USER_NAME,:P124_USER_FIRST_NAME,:P124_USER_LAST_NAME,' ',:P124_USER_EMAIL_ID,'xxxx');
END;
The default workspace for the user is set as blanks. I would like to set it to be the default workspace as per the current logged in user.
Can you help me with the syntax for this
thank you in advance
Laxmi

Laxmi,
The subject of the post is "How to create Default Schema from within the application".
But your question asks how to set the "default workspace" for a newly created user.
Those are different questions and not the ones I think you need answered.
Let me answer this question "How can you set the default schema for an account when creating the account and set it to the same value used for the default schema attribute of the administrator account used to authenticate to the currently running application?".
In the apex_util.create_user call use named parameter notation and fetch the information about the currently logged-in user first, e.g.,declare
l_workspace               varchar2(256);
l_user_name               varchar2(256);
l_first_name              varchar2(256);
l_last_name               varchar2(256);
l_web_password            varchar2(256);
l_email_address           varchar2(256);
l_start_date              varchar2(256);
l_end_date                varchar2(256);
l_employee_id             varchar2(256);
l_allow_access_to_schemas varchar2(256);
l_person_type             varchar2(256);
l_default_schema          varchar2(256);
l_groups                  varchar2(256);
l_developer_role          varchar2(256);
l_description             varchar2(256);
begin
apex_util.fetch_user (
p_user_id                  => apex_util.get_current_user_id,
p_workspace                => l_workspace,
p_user_name                => l_user_name,

p_start_date               => l_start_date,

How to do sorting/filtering on custom java data source implementation

Hi,
I have an entity driven view object whose data should be retrieved and populated using custom java data source implementation. I've done the same as said in document. I understand that Query mode should be the default one (i.e. database tables) and createRowFromResultSet will be called as many times as it needs based on the no. of data retrieved from service, provided we should write the logic for hasNextForCollection(). Implementation sample code is given below.
protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object qc, Object[] params, int noUserParams) {
Iterator datumItr = retrieveDataFromService(qc, params);
setUserDataForCollection(qc, datumItr);
hasNextForCollection(qc);
super.executeQueryForCollection(qc, params, noUserParams);
protected boolean hasNextForCollection(Object qc) {
Iterator datumItr = (Iterator) getUserDataForCollection(qc);
if (datumItr != null && datumItr.hasNext()){
return true;
setCallService(false);
setFetchCompleteForCollection(qc, true);
return false;
protected ViewRowImpl createRowFromResultSet(Object qc, ResultSet resultSet) {
Iterator datumItr = (Iterator) getUserDataForCollection(qc);
Object datumObj = datumItr.next();
ViewRowImpl r = createNewRowForCollection(qc);
return r;
Everything is working fine include table sorting/filtering. Then i noticed that everytime when user perform sorting/filtering, executeQueryForCollection is called, which in turn calls my service. It is a performance issue. I want to avoid. So i did some modification in the implementation in such a way that, service call will happen only if the callService flag is set to true, followed by executeQuery(). Code is given below.
private boolean callService = false;
public void setCallService(boolean callService){
this.callService = callService;
public boolean isCallService(){
return callService;
protected void executeQueryForCollection(Object qc, Object[] params, int noUserParams){
if (callService)
Iterator datumItr = retrieveDataFromService(qc, params);
setUserDataForCollection(qc, datumItr);
hasNextForCollection(qc);
super.executeQueryForCollection(qc, params, noUserParams);
Issue i have:
When user attempts to use table sort/filter, since i skipped the service call and set null as userDataCollection, createRowFromResultSet is not called and data which i retrieved and populated to view object is totally got vanished!!. I've already retrived data and created row from result set. Why it should get vanished? Don't know why.
Tried solution:
I came to know that query mode should be set to Scan_Entity_Cache for filtering and Scan_View_Rows for sorting. I din't disturb the implementation (i.e. skipping service call) but overrided the executeQuery and did like the following code.
@Override
public void executeQuery(){
setQueryMode(callService ? ViewObject.QUERY_MODE_SCAN_DATABASE_TABLES : ViewObject.QUERY_MODE_SCAN_ENTITY_ROWS);
super.executeQuery();
By doing this, i could able to do table filtering but when i try to use table sorting or programmatic sorting, sorting is not at all applied.
I changed the code like beolw*
@Override
public void executeQuery(){
setQueryMode(callService ? ViewObject.QUERY_MODE_SCAN_DATABASE_TABLES : ViewObject.QUERY_MODE_SCAN_VIEW_ROWS);
super.executeQuery();
Now sorting is working fine but filtering is not working in an expected way because Scan_View_rows will do further filtering of view rows.
Question:
I don't know how to achieve both filtering and sorting as well as skipping of service call too.
Can anyone help on this?? Thanks in advance.

There are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions (deleting an app won't stop it) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098
In terms of a refund, what does it say on the app's description page in the store (a lot say that refunds aren't given) ?

My MacBook Pro hard drive is almost full and I wish to store my Aperture Library on an external drive, how do I do this and is the use of USB2 suitable or do I need to use a Firewire external hard drive?

My MacBook Pro hard drive is almost full and I wish to store my Aperture Library on an external drive, how do I do this and is the use of USB2 suitable or do I need to use a Firewire external hard drive?

You'll get better performance if you use a Firewire hard drive (especially if you buy a 7200 RPM drive). Firewire's IO speed is significantly faster than USB 2. USB 2 has a theoretical max speed of 480 Mbps except that it has extremely high over-head. The fastest speeds you can typically get are about 300 Mbps. Firewire, on the other hand, has very little overhead. The fastest speeds you can get are very nearly 800 Mbps. You will typically be constrained by the maximum read/write speed of the drive, not the speed of the I/O on the Firewire bus. Now if you had one of those nice shiny new Macs with the Thunderbolt I/O and a Thunderbolt drive (Light Peak) ... I think they alter space and time so that your data arrives before you know you want it.
Also... unless you want to buy a solid state drive (very expensive), try to keep your hard drives from becoming much more than about 60% full if you want great performance. A nearly "full" hard drive is, on average, only about half as fast as the same hard drive when nearly empty.
USB 2 will work perfectly fine... just not as fast.
Also... it's much safer to move the entire Aperture library than to "relocate masters". Your images must be managed. You can Aperture manage them, or you can manage them. But someone has to manage them. If you "relocate" them so that they are no longer stored inside the Aperture library then you'll need to work out a system of how you decide to organize things and it's critically important that you don't start moving files around or deleting things without Aperture's knowledge. If you do, you'll break the links to your masters and start having problems with missing masters. If you have Aperture manage the library then you don't need to worry about any of that stuff.... it's safer.
Do make backups (use the Aperture Vault or use some other backup program, but make sure you back up your work if you care about it.) There are only two kinds of hard drives in the world: (1) those that have failed and (2) those that are going to fail. There are no exceptions to this rule. Hard drives are cheap. Backup software is built into Aperture and into your Mac.

When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Please help. My ipod classic could not be recognised by itunes when I connect my ipod to PC. Previously it has been recognised before I updated. This was a while ago now and so I removed all apple files and re installed the latest itunes but am having the same problem.
When I download itunes, it says that Ipod Service failed to start. I checked the services under task manager and when I try to start it, it says access denied. How to I get access and for the ipod service to start and run?

Some anti-virus programs (e.g., McAfee) have this rule that can be invoked under the "maximum protection" settings: PREVENT PROGRAMS REGISTERING AS A SERVICE. If that rule is set to BLOCK, then any attempt to install or upgrade iTunes will fail with an "iPod service failed to start" message.
If you are getting this problem with iTunes, check to see if your anti-virus has this setting and unset it, at least for as long as the iTunes install requires. Exactly how to find the rule and turn it on and off will vary, depending upon your anti-malware software. However, if your anti-virus or anti-malware software produces a log of its activities, examining the log may help you find the problem.
For example, here's the log entry for McAfee:
9/23/2009 3:18:45 PM Blocked by Access Protection rule NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe \REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\iPod Service Common Maximum Protection:Prevent programs registering as a service Action blocked : Create
Note that the log says "Common Maximum Protection: Prevent programs registering as a service". The "Common Maximum Protection" is the location of the rule, "Prevent programs registering as a service" is the rule. I used that information to track down the location in the McAfee VirusScan Console where I could turn the rule off.
After I made the change, iTunes installed without complaint.
