BOMs in Oracle DB vs. BW

I would your feedback on the following short term approach to handling BOMS.
Our environment is such that BOMs are in disparate systems. Our approach would be to extracty the BOMs from each system, merge them into a common format, and then load into a table in Oracle. We will incorporate other data, such as demand plan and costs, with the BOM data, in order to arrive at an extended cost. This would all be done in Oracle and not BW.
It is our current thinking that BW would not be able to handle the volumes and calculations needed in an efficient manner. Please comment.
Our next phase would then be to bring the data into BW for reporting purposes.
I am eager to get reposnses to this posting.
Thanks in advance!

Import multi-level BOM into Oracle

We have a client requirement to create BOM based on level using Pl/Sql, Data will be coming in the below format:-
Item Description      BOM LEVEL
a               *1*
aa               *2*
aaa               *3*
aab               *3*
aaba               *4*
aabb               *4*
ab               *2*
aba               *3*
abb               *3*
we want the above data in table to be inserted in below format:
Assembly Item     Component Item
a               Aa
Aa               Aaa
Aa               Aab
Aa               Aac
A               Ab
Ab               Aba
Ab               Abb
Aab               aaba
Please suggest.
Thanks,

When you look at one row in your source data, there is no way to tell what is the parent item for the component you are looking at.
So you will have to write a program that walks thru the data and builds parent=child relationship. It will be a tricky program but once that is done, all you have to do is to insert into bom interface tables and Oracle will take care of the rest.
Oracle BOM interface will take care of building a multi-level structure.

Issues with BOM in Oracle

Hi DBA gurus,
We have Oracle 10g/11g and Operating System : Windows
While inserting XML data in CLOB datatype we are getting *¿<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>* in the data. I suspect this is BOM (Byte Order Mark) related issue.
The settings of NLS in our database are :
NLS_CHARACTERSET WE8MSWIN1252
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16
Is this database related issue ? I have read somewhere that this issue is related to UNICODE. Please advise to get rid of this special character.
Thanks.

Hi!
Try the following
find / -name rman
This command looks for a file called rman. These file should normaly be located in $ORACLE_HOME/bin. If it is not then it may be deleted or something. Try to reinstall it (copy all the files of the bin directory from another oracle installation).
Hope this helps!

BOM Rollup - Oracle 10.2

Hello,
I have a 3 tables that contain data about components that make up a product. Say we have car 1 and car 2 and each car is made up of several components, these components have individual details - serial number, qty, etc. I am displaying them in a Tree control on a JSF page and need to be able to "Roll-up" the cost of the individual subcomponents into their parents.
For example
Mustang - $ 35 - Rollup Piston + Bolts + Tire + RIM
- Engine $25 - Rollup Piston + Bolts
- Piston $15
- Casing $10 - Rollup bolts
- Bolts $10
- Wheels - $10
- Tire - $5
- Rim - $5
So as per the simple example I would like to be able to select a component and display the Rolled up total of its subcomponents. Can someone provide an example in sql that can achieve this task?
Thanks in advance.

OK, I got it to work. Here is the updated SQL. Question does anyone have a shorter more efficient way of doing this?
Hope this helps someone else.
Cheers.

Not able to integrate SOA Suite with EBS using Oracle APPS Adapter

Hi,
We need to listen to outbound business events of Oracle EBS using BES via Oracle APPS Adapter.
We have created a composite containing Oracle Application Adapter and BPEL Process.
In Apps adapter when configured Outbound Business events "oracle.apps.bom.component.modified" using Dequeue Operation,a corresponding subscriber is created in WF_BPEL_Q for respective event selected.
In Oracle EBS
for "oracle.apps.bom.component.modified" status is enabled and in subscription WF_BPEL_QAGENT is there.
When we are changing any BOM component in Oracle EBS Designer and saving it, a record is being created in "WF_BPEL_QTAB".
BPEL Process( Oracle Apps Adapter Partner Link---> Recieve Actvity ) instances are not being created when any BOM component is being changed.
Oracle Apps Adapter is not able to dequeue the data from WF_BPEL_QTAB.
There is not any error/exception in oracle soa suite server logs for Oracle APPS adapter.

We would like to capture a few business events in oracle BOM and PO that are of interest to us. In order to do this,
we deploy oracle SOA composite with BEPL in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Control. The oracle SOA composite is configured for a particular outbound business event. It should listens on a specific queue WF_BPEL_Q or WF_BPEL_QTAB and de-queues the messages from that Oracle Queue or Oracle AQ Table. In jDeveloper 11g we created a SOA project with oracle applications adapter partner link and a receive.
Specifically we are trying to capture the business outbound event oracle.apps.bom.component.modified just to get the event data in this receive.
Partner link configuration: We added the database connection to the oracle EBS instance. Tested it and we
succeded. Chose ANY_SCHEMA in partner link configuration.
We ensured that the JNDI Name here( eis/Apps/Apps ) match the JNDI name provided in the weblogic-->Deployments--
OracleAppsAdapter -->Configuration --> Outbound Connection Pools. For this outbound resource pool, Connection factory interface was javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory. Property name xADataSourceName was mapped to JNDI name of the configured JDBC datasource in the weblogic. When we created the connection pool. We tested and it worked fine. This data source had the connection pool configured to the oracle applications schema with APPS user.
After adding the partner link with the above configuration, we added a receive. We deployed this configuration to the middleware. We went to the oracle EBS modified a BOM component and we expected to having running BPEL instances against the deloyed composite. However, the problem is we are not having any running instance for the composite.
We found that there are entries in the view AQ$WF_BPEL_QTAB with an ENQ_TIME and ENQ_TIMESTAMP but with no DEQ_TIME or DEQ_TIMESTAMP. The ENQ_TIMESTAMP corresponds to the time we modified BOM in oracle BOM forms/Designer
The data is being written in WF_BPEL_QTAB for the BOM changes but not being dequeued by oracle applications adapter/composites deployed in soa server.
Please help me it quite urgent.
Is there anything we are missing on EBS side to be activited. for the events to be dequeued
Any Help is appreciated.

UTF-8 files with BOM chrashes DOMParser?

Hi.
We are storing XML-documents in an 8i databse with UTF-8 encoding (in CLOBS).
Problem: If the Unicode XML-document contains a BOM the oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser's
parse()-method throws an exception.
I get the following output when using the ParseXMLFromURL.java class supplied in JDeveloper 3.2 samples directory:
Sample output >>>>
System Output: XML parse error in file http://localhost/UTF-8_With_BOM.xml
System Output: at line 1, character 1
System Output: Start of root element expected.
<<<<<<< Sample output
If I change the XML-file not to include a BOM the parser works fine.
(I set/unset the BOM using EmEditor from http://www.emurasoft.com/ if you'd like to try for yourselves).
To me it looks like DOMParser interprets the BOM at the start of the XML-file as XML-content instead of a Unicode signature.
IE 5.5 can handle both formats, shouldn't DOMParse also be able to handle that?
Any ideas how I can get DOMParse to work with UTF-8(BOM) XML-files?
Regards,
Jan-Erik
Sample XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding='UTF-8'?>
<newsdoc>
<news>
<newstitle>
Document contains no BOM
</newstitle>
<introduction>

I have the same problem when trying to store UTF-8 encoded XML files with BOM marks in iFS version 1.1.9.0.7.
The database is 8.1.7.1.1 created with UTF-8 charset.
I have loaded the XDK for PLSQL 9.0.2.0.0A into the database and replaced the original %ORACLE_HOME%\lib\xmlparserv2.jar with the one distributed in this XDK.
I get the following error message:

How is a file attachment stored in database?

Hi all~~
I am developping an email application(web based) using Javamail. I need to store the attachment together with the relevant email messages in the database. Is that correct that I add an attribute called ATTACHMENT in the entity which stores the file attachment uploaded by users? If so, is the datatype of ATTACHMENT called OBJECT?
This question confused me for more than a week already. I can send an email with the attachment which I wrote the path of the file in code, but I can't store it in the database.
Your advice is appreciated!! Thank you!

Hi,
Oracle stores the BOM in basically 2 tables BOM_BILL_OF_MATERIALS and BOM_INVENTORY_COMPONENTS.
The simplest way to explode the BOM in Oracle is to use the BOMPEXPL (BOM Exploder) package.
Hope this helps.

Partner link configuration: We added the database connection to the oracle EBS instance. Tested it and we
succeded. Chose ANY_SCHEMA in partner link configuration.
We ensured that the JNDI Name here( eis/Apps/Apps ) match the JNDI name provided in the weblogic-->Deployments--
OracleAppsAdapter -->Configuration --> Outbound Connection Pools. For this outbound resource pool, Connection factory interface was javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory. Property name xADataSourceName was mapped to JNDI name of the configured JDBC datasource in the weblogic. When we created the connection pool. We tested and it worked fine. This data source had the connection pool configured to the oracle applications schema with APPS user.
After adding the partner link with the above configuration, we added a receive. We deployed this configuration to the middleware. We went to the oracle EBS modified a BOM component and we expected to having running BPEL instances against the deloyed composite. However, the problem is we are not having any running instance for the composite.
We found that there are entries in the view AQ$WF_BPEL_QTAB with an ENQ_TIME and ENQ_TIMESTAMP but with no DEQ_TIME or DEQ_TIMESTAMP. The ENQ_TIMESTAMP corresponds to the time we modified BOM in oracle BOM forms/Designer and MSG_STATE is READY
The data is being written in WF_BPEL_QTAB for the BOM changes but not getting dequeued by oracle applications adapter/composites deployed in soa server.
Please help me it quite urgent.
Is there anything we are missing on EBS side to be activited for the events to be dequeued
Any Help is appreciated.

Hi
I am able to dequeue the data using manual event testing button. BPEL instance are being created now.
But now no records are being inserted in WF_BPEL_QTAB if i change any Oracle BOM component using Oracle EBS which was working till yesterday.
In morning there were more than 100 records in WF_BPEL_QTAB as i have tested so many time changing bom component. I used this script
DECLARE
*     po dbms_aqadm.aq$_purge_options_t;*
BEGIN
po.block := FALSE;
DBMS_AQADM.PURGE_QUEUE_TABLE(
queue_table     => 'WF_BPEL_QTAB',
purge_condition => NULL,
purge_options   => po);
END;
after that Records are not gettingin WF_BPEL_QTAB when BOM Changes in Oracle EBS
Problem Description
we need to listen to the outbound business events of Oracle EBS for BOM/PO modules .
we have created a subscription for the oracle.apps.bom.component.modified by using Oracle Apps Adapter in SOA Suite.
1.
When we are testing oracle.apps.bom.component.modified from(Business Events--Events ---TestBusiness Events) by giving
dummy event key , send date, and xml payload and then click on Rainse in Java.
Then a two records are being created in WF_BPEL_QTAB table and are getting polled by Oracle Apps adapter and two BPEL Instances
are being created in SOA Suite showing the dummy payload which we entered while doing Business Event testing sigle time only.
No record is being created in WF_BPEL_QTAB of oracle EBS if we hit Raise in PL/SQL. tab while doing manual event testing.
2.
If we open Oracle BOM form(Responsibilty-Bills of Material -Bills -Bills of Material SV1) and change the component and save it.
No record entry/data is being created in WF_BPEL_QTAB of Oracle EBS .
Why there is no record entry being created when we change any component from Oracle BOM Form.

How to create table with sqlj

String table_name="first_table";
#sql { create table :table_name
as select * from BOM
it shows me ORA-00903 error,invalid table name.
how to do?

I do not know what your issue was.
The following SQLJ code below works find (except that I was copying
from the table EMP and not from BOM).
import oracle.sqlj.runtime.Oracle;
import java.sql.SQLException;
public class s
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException
Oracle.connect("jdbc:oracle:oci:@","scott","tiger");
String prjNo = "s101";
#sql {create table :{"BOM_"+prjNo :: BOM}
as select * from BOM where 1=2 };

Pre-configuration API

Hi,
Would anybody know of Pre-configuration API's ? I want to call the preconfiguration BOM process to create preconfigured BOM in Oracle BOM. This is due to the fact that
we are using the CPQ tool to configure and Quote BOMs.
I want to create the configured BOM Item and their Bills/Routings (manufacturing BOM) in Oracle Inventory and BOM before creating the Sales Order in OM.
I am looking to use API which is used for Preconfiguring Bills in Oracle BOM.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks,
BK

Follow Oracle® Identity Manager Installation and Configuration Guide and go to 'Planning the installation' section where all pre-requisites are mentioned for the IAM setup.

Cataloging Configurations

I am trying to use the configuration item catalog functionality for a new configured item to reflect in its description the catalog descriptive element values based on the options selected. I have setup the item model and option class bills with necessary catalog groups and descriptive elements. Options have beed assigned to a catalog group with descriptive element and element value defined and updated in the description.
I have been unsucessful so far, the new configured item description is reflecting the same description from model that it was configured from.
Need some clarification on this statement from BOM help "Oracle Manufacturing lets you set up rules to automatically assign Item Catalog descriptive element values to assemble to order configurations based on the options selected" - What are these "setup rules"? How do I set up these rules?

Hi,
1. Attach the Item catalog to the model with out any values enabling the description default.
2. Attach the descriptive elements for the model Bills of material (by choosing the element button)
3. Attach the option item with catalog group with descriptive elements that describes that option ( in the item master).
4. Attach the descriptive elements for the option class, which has the above said option item in BOM. ( by choosing the element button in option class bills of material).
Example:
Model
Item - LPC
Catalog group - PC
Descriptive Element - Processor
Values -
Option Item
Item - 386 Processor
Catalog group - Process
Descriptive Element - Processor
Value - Slow
Option Class Bills of Material
Select the Descriptive element has the processor.
So when you order a configuration, BOM automatically creates and assigns the configuration item to the models item catalog group, and assigns values to the descriptive element in the group.
Bye

New features/changes in Oracle R12 BOM/WIP

Does anyone have a document/link which highlights the new features/changes in Oracle R12 BOM/WIP

Hi Damodhar,
Your question is from discrete perspective or process manufacturing perspective?

Can any body send me oracle wip,bom and manufacturing student guide?

Hello all,
can any body share with me oracle WIP,BOM and manufacturing student guide? My mail id is [email protected]
Thanks a lot

Sorry I didn't find anything that is Kanban specific. Trying looking under flow manufacturing and also came up empty in R12. There was a R12 Inventory based class where Kanban resides in the user guide but it didn't look like it is going to be worth your while.
The user guide is actually pretty straight forward and a whole bunch less inexpensive...

Oracle BOM Common Operations

Hi, i'm getting a Note in the routing items, the message says "You can only view common Operations"
I dont undestand this message, what i should to review or what setup must my item have.
I have compare my item with other where the message dont show is, and i already dont see the different.
Any suggest about this?
[email protected]
best regarts.

Hi - my response was based on the assumption that you are issuing component 1A to your job then making your changes to its attributes and then directly adding it to your finished good. I assumed that you had no need to inventory or track the amounts of 1A position 11's, 1A position 21's, or 1A position 31's that were created.
If you need to keep track of how you've altered your 1A's, then perhaps another layer to your BOM would be in order.
How about something like this?
Finished good
..1A position 11, qty = 1
........1A generic component, qty = 1
..1A position 21
........1A generic component, qty = 1
..1A position 32
........1A generic component, qty = 1
..Other components
This would produce 4 jobs. One for the finished good and 3 others for the various 1A configurations.

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody help me providing link to get Oracle Open Interface Tables related to Manufacturing ( PO.INV,BOM,WIP,DRP/MRP ) Suire and their usage details ( i know Oracle Documentation has all these details in Open Interface documents ), i am looking for short white papers or brief notes on the Open Interface tables.
Please help
Regards

Sure there is quite good documetation on Open interface tables for the Oracle Manfacturing suite.... You can explore matalink for getting the latest documentation. or you can browse http://oracletimes.blogspot.com which has the resource links for various documetation.
