Clarity on basics of oracle Install Base

I am not getting clarity over the below mentioned items even after going thru documents. Can anybody please highlight on these...
--> what exactly is an instance in install base and how is it associated to a serial number of an item or product?
--> what is meant by maintaining relationship between instances?
--> At what position specific to Service Contracts / Order Management / Shipping applications, an instance gets created or updated in install base?
--> what is meant by serial control over an item from an shipping organization perspective?
--> what are the other applications that can be a source for an Install Base transaction?
Thanks,
SK

Hi,
Question1.
One oracle block (say a 8k or a 16k block) can contain several rows. Right?
Ans:Yes, In One oracle block there can be more than one row whether it is oracle 10g or 11g doesn't matter.
Question2.
Every row stored in an oracle block is referred to as a Row piece in Oracle terminology. Right?
Ans: Yes ,You are correct.
The below link will answer you better about this question.

Oracle Install Base Interface Error

Error: The source item instance 33604, in Subinventory 4131, for Organization 734 in Oracle Install Base does not exist. Please verify that any receipt transations were successful.
I have checked values by running the following SQL:
select Instance_ID, location_type_code, location_id, INV_ORGANIZATION_ID, INV_SUBINVENTORY_NAME, instance_status_id
from csi_item_instances where Serial_Number = '08112025CWDIND'
INV_ORGANIZATION_ID is 734
INV_SUBINVENTORY_NAME is 4131
But still the transaction is stuck with the above error.
Please help to clear this error.

Please see if the following docs help.

Hi Experts,
I am not able to find "Expire Relationship" button under Configuration Tab while trying to expire parent and child relationship in oracle install base for an intem instance.But for some item instance I am able to find the "Expire Relationship" button under Configuration Tab.
Can any one please let me know why the "Expire Relationship" button is available for some item and not available for some item instances.
Thank you.

How to update item instance in oracle install base?

Hi,
I have a doubt in updating item instance in oracle install base.
I am using a API named csi_item_instance_pub.update_item_instance for this. I want to update Party OWNER, party contacts, Current location,Install location, bill_to address,ship_to address..etc. When i try to update party owner, it is updating in csi_i_parties(col:party_id) as well as updating in csi_item_instance(owner_party_id). In csi_item_instance table,owner_party_id column is updated. but corresponding owner_party_account_id is not changed. I have given party_account_id to update in csi_ip_accounts table. It has changed in csi_ip_accounts table. But in csi_item_instance table(owner_party_account_id) is not changing. Can anybody help on how to change owner_party_account_id in csi_item_instance table please? Thanks in advance.

Out of the box, I don't think that there is any API or program to delete the records from csi_item_instances because deleting IB record affects many modules (like Inventory, Order, Service Contracts etc). IB records should be expired if they are created incorrectly and you can run Transaction History Purge program to delete all history records related to that item.

Oracle Installed Base

Does the Oracle Installed Base system, lend itself to being populated with Install Base data from legacy ERP systems? It's my impression that the Install Base data, starts in inventory and ends at a customer location, but is it a requirement that everything start in inventory?
Thanks

is it a requirement that everything start in inventory?Nope, I usually start from scratch.
Seriously now:
Give us a clear picture, if possible, provide some links or whatever. Anything.

Is Asset Tracking module mandatory for Oracle Install Base implementation?

In the Oracle Install Base implementation guide, it is mentioned that Asset Tracking (previously Enterprise Install Base) Module is mandatory. Our situation does not warrant to implement asset tracking. Do we need to get separate license for Asset tracking if we need to implement Install base? Any insight on this would be highly helpful. Thanks

Oracle Install Base API question

Hi...I need help. I am writing an extension to the Service Fulfillment Manager (SFM) Transactions
Here is a functional background:
For all SFM message types, SFM exposes the PL/SQL code in the iMessage studio. iMessage studio is an Oracle EBS Application tool. The PL/SQL for the following message types will be modified:
·     Sales Order Shipment - CSISOSHP
·     Miscellaneous Receipt - CSIMSRCV
·     Receipt into Inventory – CSIPOINV
The processing logic for each of these transaction types contains a call to an Installed Base package and stores the return status in a variable. For PO Receipt and SO Issue transactions referencing serial numbers prefixed by the Vertical Bar (‘|’) character this call will be bypassed and a successful status placed in the return status variable.
For PO Receipt and Miscellaneous Receipt transactions referencing serial numbers not prefixed by the Vertical Bar (‘|’) character, the processing logic will be extended to extract the IUID value from the serial numbers table in the Oracle Inventory module (MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS) and call the public IB Application Programming Interface (API) (CSI_ITEM_INSTANCE_PUB.UPDATE_ITEM_INSTANCE) to update the associated IB instance with the IUID.
OK, so Question #1:
I get all I need to do is bypass the code in 2 instances if a bar is found at the beginning of the serial number.. And I can do that. But where is this serial number? I assume it is stored in MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS but how do I get it?
The code doesn't have it stored as a variable, and it doesn't seem to have the IB record either. Is there a foreign key? Anyone have imessage studio and can look into that?
Question #2:
To update the IB record with the serial number I need to make a call to the below procedure. The thing is, it seems to require the IB instance record. Again, I don't have that cause the code is creating it! Is there some way to get that created record back and pass it into the update procedure?
PROCEDURE update_item_instance

Oracle Install Base - Where to find Queries related to parties and Loaction

Hi All,
Did anybody looked in Installed Base module, from where the party and location addresses are coming.
for example, when we select a party name and select GO button in the create item instance page , we will get some list of parties to select. From there we will select one party name.
I want in which jsp or java file the Query is located to retrieve all the parties here.
If anybody worked on this previously please help me.
Thanks in advance,
Murali.

Try putting 'CSI_DEBUG=TRUE&' in the url....right after '.jsp?'

Oracle Install Base relationship to Serial Numbers

OK, so the table CSI_TRANSACTIONS is a listing of transactions within Install Base, right?
I need to associate a serial number with each. How is this table connected to MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS?
If I have an install base transaction_id...how do I get the serial number?
Any help would be appreciated!

select a.serial_number from mtl_unit_transactions a,mtl_material_transactions b, csi_transactions c
where a.transaction_id=b.transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=c.inv_material_transaction_id
UNION
select a.serial_number from mtl_unit_transactions a,mtl_material_transactions b, csi_transactions c,mtl_transaction_lot_numbers d
where a.transaction_id=d.serial_transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=d.transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=c.inv_material_transaction_id;

Oracle Install Base Errors...

Hi
I am facing some errors at IB side while doing transactions at OM side.
I am on 11.5.9.
Any pointer to any document/manual which list different IB errors and their cause will be of great help.
Regards,
Basant

Hi
For eg.
"Passed Serial Number (IR1600-2328) violates uniqueness with in Inventory items. Validation for unique serial number has failed."
For the above error if i insert a row into csi_transactions then it gets process but what is the exact reason for the above error?
Thanks,

Install base API error Material Transaction errored prior to the current tr

All,
I wrote a script to update the install base installed date using API - csi_item_instance_pub.update_item_instance.
Script updated many successfully, but, for many I am getting following error:
You have Material Transaction_id (12169418) errored Prior to the Current Transaction. You need to process that first.
You have Material Transaction_id (12020011) errored Prior to the Current Transaction. You need to process that first.
I tried to reprocess using API again, but, it does update.
Does any one encountered this before ? What's causing this issue and resolution for same ? Is there any data issue, if so where ?
Thanks much

Nagmohan,
Thanks for quick update...
I found that progam you mentioned 'Install Base Error Correction and Synchronization Program' and ran that with options Show instances - Y, Mode - C, Force all data fix - Y.
I don't see any change what so ever in the csi_txn_errors. Though, I didn't ran the update API program.
For testing purposes, I took one inventory_item_id from the csi_txn_errors table to see how many errors it got.
Inventory_item_id = 304076
Found there are 123 rows for this items. processed_flag D-20 ; E-103 ;
I am enclosing few of data from the table here.
I understand from you that we need to clean these errors by some means, so, we need to look at each one in sequential order, then, try to resolve that to get to next one and so on until all the errors cleared. Also, is that business users needs to do something over here to fix these errors ? Or each one have it's own resolution ?
Why did Install Base error correction program did not fix the issues ? Is the program expected to fix the error by correcting the issue internally ?
Thanks much,

Did you check if the serial ABN656 is the parent and has child components under it? Check the below query for the same. Additionally you can also navigate to Oracle Installed Base Agent User responsibility, search for ABN656, click on the record, navigate to Configuration tab and see if this serial has any child components.
select *
from csi_ii_relationships cir
,csi_item_instances cii
where cii.serial_number = 'ABN656'
and cii.instance_id = cir.object_id

Install Base APIs - creating 'Installed At' address

Dear Experts,
I am looking to create an Item Instance using the API: CSI_ITEM_INSTANCE_PUB.create_item_instance such that when it is queried from the Oracle E-Business Suite under the responsibility: 'Oracle Installed Base User' then all the information is there as if it was created through this front-end.
I have managed to get the API to work successfully. However, when I query the Item Instance through the E-Business Suite, the 'Installed At' address is not there. I wish it to be the same as the current address.
Is there any way I can create the 'Installed At' address using the API?
My code is below. Many thanks for your time and assistance,
Mark

I have found the problem:
In create_item_instance for record type "instance_rec" pass values for "INSTALL_LOCATION_TYPE_CODE" and "INSTALL_LOCATION_ID". This will populate the "Installed At" address.

Install Base - Unable to find "Expire Relationship" button

Hi Experts,
I am not able to find "Expire Relationship" button under Configuration Tab while trying to expire parent and child relationship in oracle install base for an intem instance.But for some item instance I am able to find the "Expire Relationship" button under Configuration Tab.
Can any one please let me know why the "Expire Relationship" button is available for some item and not available for some item instances.
Thank you.
Ravi S
