Common Supplier master database for Custom Applications and Oracle Financia

Hi,
We would like to build a custom applications (Multiple) for our organization core business operations using .NET on the database which is being used by Oracle financials R12.1.1. These custom applications are going to have its own application servers. BUT the database is common for both custom applications and oracle financials. This database is going to house on the Oracle RAC.
We would like to have a common supplier master for both custom applications and Oracle payables. Could you please help me with below questions?
1. How to create/Update/Query the supplier records in the supplier master tables provided by Oracle financials using custom applications?
2. How can we store the additional data elements needed by each custom application? We can't use the DFF on the supplier tables as the data elements for each custom application is going to be different. even though they use same supplier.
3. We might have multiple supplier with same name but different FEIN/SSN numbers. As per the design Oracle financials doesn't allow the same supplier name entered multiple times even though FEIN/SSN number is different. How can we workaround this limitation?
Thanks,

Hi,
Please find my comments below:
1. How to create/Update/Query the supplier records in the supplier master tables provided by Oracle financials using custom applications?
A: You may use Supplier Open interface and Sites Interface to Create the Supplier Records. I don't think there is any API to update Supplier Info. Since both the applications exist on same database, I think you can query the Vendor tables from Custom applications also.
2. How can we store the additional data elements needed by each custom application? We can't use the DFF on the supplier tables as the data elements for each custom application is going to be different. even though they use same supplier.
A. Designing different tables depending on Custom Application ID and Vendor ID seems to be the only option.
3. We might have multiple supplier with same name but different FEIN/SSN numbers. As per the design Oracle financials doesn't allow the same supplier name entered multiple times even though FEIN/SSN number is different. How can we workaround this limitation?
A.One alternative is to create a single supplier with each FEIN/SSN number as site. Second one is to create Supplier Name concatenated with FEIN/SSN numbers as different suppliers and store the actual name in some DFF or other field. Standard functionality won't allow such duplication (Cannot Create Supplier/Employee With The Same Name Of Existing Supplier [ID 743430.1]).
Hope it helps.

    Hi Dipti,
    You can use the same reference as ASP.NET
    Example
    "<%@ Page Language="C#" masterpagefile="../_catalogs/masterpage/minimal.master" title="teste" inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.WebPartPage, Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" meta:webpartpageexpansion="full"

    You can use SharePoint Designer 2010
    http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16573 to make the reference from you aspx page to you custom masterpage.
    When you are editing a aspx page you can go to ribbon "Style" and attach the custom Masterpage.

  • How to use Cache Management Library (CML) for custom applications?

    Hello,
    We are planning the migration of multiple applications (J2EE, Portal, Web-Dynpro for Java) from 7.01 to 7.3 and we would like to replace some custom cache implementations with a central cache management provided by the SAP Web-AS Java.
    Several SAP standard services (e.g. UME, Configuration Manager, Scheduler) seems to use the "Cache Management Library" (CML):
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/4a/f833eb306628d2e10000000a42189b/frameset.htm]
    Such caches can be monitored using SAP Management Console (AS Java Caches).
    Portal Runtime (cache_type=CML) and Web Page Composer can also be configured to use CML:
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/49/d822a779cf0e80e10000000a42189b/frameset.htm]

    So our questions:
    How to use CML for custom applications?
    Is there any example or documentation available?
    Kind Regards,
    Dirk

    Thanks Vidyut! You've answered my question.
    I placed the jar file in the $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib directory. But where should I place the taglib TLD file? And how should I reference it in web.xml?
    Currently, my web.xml is as follows and it doesn't work.

  • Oracle Application Server of R12.1.x (10.1.3) for Custom Application Deploy

    Hi Friends,
    Can we use Oracle Application Server of R12.1.x (10.1.3) for Custom Application Deployment(jar files) instead of going for seperate Oracle 10g Applicatuion Server.
    Let us know the Licensing information as well
    Regards

    Hi,
    Personally i would'nt suggest using the Application server, due to
    1. If you need down time for application patching, you custom application will also be down.
    2. If you can not start 10g Application server (The one came with R12) for some issues, it will also affect your custom application.
    3. If you are upgrading/patching 10g application server (the one came with R12), you would not know what will the affect of this on custom application.

  • Individual Orders for Customer requirement and Forecast

    Hi Experts,
    We have requirement to create separate planned orders for customer demand and separate planned orders for forecast.
    I mean one planned order should not cover both the forecast and the Sales order quantity; there should be separate orders for the two.
    We are using SNP heuristic for planning.
    For Eg in a bucket :-
    Forecast = 100
    Sales Order = 40
    Lot size = Lot for Lot
    Planning Strategy = 20
    We Need:
    Planned order 1 = 40
    Planned order 2 = 60
    Regards
    Manu

    Hi Manu,
    Unfortunately, SAP itself says that one should not use 30 with SNP. Quoting from SAP Help for  "Planned Independent Requirements (PIR) Segment":
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/61/95613b3e24526fe10000000a11402f/content.htm
    "In SAP APO, the quantities for make-to-order operations are, in general, planned separately to those for make-to-stock operations. These areas are known as PIR segments.
    In general, you can only plan within a PIR segment. This means that you cannot consume planned independent requirements for a make-to-stock scenario with sales orders in a make-to-order scenario.
    However, SAP does offer a special segment to cover exactly this situation u2013 PIR segment Planning without final assembly, without individual requirements. For more information, see the input help for the PIR Segment field in the requirements strategy.
    Supply Network Planning (SNP) cannot work with the individual customer segment. For example, demand in this segment is not shown in SNP. Consequently, you should not use requirements strategies that use this segment. In the standard system, these are the strategies 30 and 40."
    I have not worked with 30 myself.
    As I mentioned earlier, it won't be easy to differentiate between the planned orders, so I am still not clear how creating separate planned orders would be beneficial for you. But best of luck anyway.
    Thanks - Pawan

    I'm wondering if there is any way to view the results of the form other than in a table?  Is it possible to print responses one by one in PDF format, or word, etc?  I'd like to create a form for proposal applications, and the spreadsheet format results are nearly unusable for this type of form.

    Hi Nalani500 ,
    Yes, you can print the response in a PDF by following the steps suggested below.
    1) Go to the response file
    2) Select the response you want to print
    3) Click on Save as PDF button and it would save the selected response in PDF format.

    Hey Som,
    If you are talking about Portal UWL, then you have to go for System Admin, there you should see UWL related iviews. There you have the ability to download the uwl xml. in that you have to do some modifications.
    All that matters for your problem is the MDM System you have created. when you chanage the respository informatin at this system. then your problem should be solved.

  • Credit master data for Customer

    Hi,

    Credit master data for Customer "X" is not maintained.
    Is there any possibility to get the information /Error message during sales order creation/Save for Customer "X" as Credit master data is not maintain.
    Information/Error message shouldd be:No credit master data maintain for Customer "X"
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards,

    Hi
    You can use the followig user exit which will perform a check while saving the order.
    Take the help of your abaper to write a code to check if the credit master has been maintained for the customer before saving the order.
    Program,: MV45AFZZ
    USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE
    Use this user exit to make certain changes or checks immediately before saving a document. It is the last possibility for changing or checking a document before posting.

  • HT4873 How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    How i can recover deleted files from icloud,,I had a backup copy on iCloud for whatsapp application and I lost it,,I need bring it back what I have to do

    You can't download pictures from iCloud by logging into icloud.com.  If you deleted pictures from camera roll AND photo stream, the only possibility is preforming a restore from an iCloud backup, assuming the backup has the pictures in it.  (Many users have been unable to restore and get back their pictures.)
    If the restore doesn't have all the pictures, then they are gone.
    In the future, use photo stream to sync photos from an iPhone to a computer, then copy the photos on the computer from the photo stream album into a permanent album.  Photo stream pics stay there only for 30 days, and only up to 1000 photos are stored.  Don't use photo stream as a storage medium, it's only for copying photos from one device to another.  Always copy (either via USB cable or photo stream) to a computer and then move to an album.

  • Frequently transfering databases between MS SQL and Oracle

    Hello all,
    I am looking for a solution to easily, efficiently and be able to migrate/transfer databases between MS SQL and Oracle frequently.
    I need to be able to replicate a databases on Ms SQL and Oracle for testing purposes. I will need to do this on frequent basis - almost once a week.
    Please suggest what would be the best way.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Justin,
    You have guessed it right to a great extend. Yes dont actually need to develop, rather need to test an application that supports SQL and Oracle databases. Now when testing the application its obviously vital to create proper systematic test data. This usually takes a lot of time and effort from the testing team/team-member. So, yes what I need to do is create the test data on one database(may it be SQL or Oracle) and migrate/transfer the data into the database on another server( ie. SQL to Oracle or Oracle to SQL).
    So,
    Are you developing a product that works against both SQL Server and Oracle and trying to synchonize development efforts?Yes, thats correct to extend, I need to test an application against both the servers, as it supports both types of databases, and try to reduce the test setup efforts (literally double the amount) that go in after manual creating same data on each type of database.
    Are you trying to replicate structural changes between systems?I am not 100% sure, what you mean by this. But whats important and enough for me is to replicate the data. It would not be a lot of work to run the scripts and create empty schema objects.
    Are you trying to replicate data changes between systems? The fact that you're only doing this weekly suggests that you're not working in a traditional replication environment.Yes, again as I mentioned above. It would be sufficient for me to just get a copy of the initial dataset. And then replicating changes to it would not be that important. However, if I can achieve a solution to this, I can by all means create a new database on the one server (SQL or Oracle) and take the data-set of the most recent/correct changes and replicate it on the other type of server as and when needed.
    No - this is not a traditional replicating environment. I say weekly, because it is usually once in a week or forthnight that someone from the team will need to spent time to manually copy the test-data onto the another type of server in order to run the same testcases on two types of servers.
    How do you handle conflicts (i.e. if I modify a row in both systems, which modification wins)? This is not really a problem in my scenario, as I only need to be able to transfer the data across to the different server and forget about the two databases actually being in-sync.
    I have also, looked at DTS for a possible solution on SQL, however it seems highly un-realistic, having to map somewhere like 250 tables from the a drop-down list, only because the two database servers use different cases to represent tables internals. So, table 'Table' in my application's SQL database is called 'TABLE' is my applications Oracle database. DTS is highly inefficient in dealing with this. Also, having 250 tables move makes this a bit of a pain.
    Thank you Justin for your response; I highly appreciate your inputs.
    Regards, Nisarg

  • How to protect custom applications using oracle access manager?

    Can someone brief me on how to protect custom applications using oracle access manager?

    Is the Custom application a Web Application running on certified platform? If its Web Application then its no different you have to configure the access policies with http(s) as resource type.
    If its not a web application you can write Custom access Gate and then implement. You would configure the policies similar to Web application (you can define your ouwn resource type if you like) and in the custom web gate you will use Access server SDK API to validate the access rules.
