You can use fnd_user.create_user api. But 2000 users can be dataloaded (alternatively) in apprx 4 to 5 hrs. If this one time effort I prefer dataload. If it is repetitve till you go live then API is the way to go.
Thanks

How to Link AD user with Apps user

Hi,
We are in process of authenticating EBusiness suite users against their Active Directory credentials.
We did the following:
1. Import Apps users into OID
2. Import AD users into OID
We dont know how to link AD account with EBz account. Are we on right track?
Please let me know if there is any document which explains the linking process.

FYI
I sucessfully authetnicated the AD user in OID against AD password using external auth.
Do I really need to import ebusiness apps users into OID and then establish a link? Pls help me explain the process.

New Apps User defaults with all User Edition Privileges - Security Breach?

Please check the following Scenario/Issue and please let me know if anyone has a solution for it.
1. In Apps, created following Responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
2. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Privileges, assigned following privilege to "Payables Inquiry-Only User"
- User Edition Parent only (unchecked all child privileges such as Create/Edit Query)
3. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Security, mapped following Responsibilities/Business Areas (BA)
- Resp: Payables Inquiry-Only User BA: AP Payables
- Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User BA: PA Projects
4. In Apps, created user DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assigned following responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
5. At this stage, if user connects to User Edition;
- user is able to create new query in BA: AP Payables or BA: PA Projects depending on login Responsibility
- By default Discoverer assigns all User Edition Privileges to new Apps User including Create/Edit Query
Requirement
1. Create new Apps User DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assign it Inquiry-Only Responsbilities
2. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Payables Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Payables Inqiry-Only user
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
3. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
Issue
There is time-gap between creating Apps User and login to Discoverer Admin to remove user privileges. This is security Breach, is their any way to change get around it.
- Discoverer gives precedence to Responsibility Privileges over User Privileges. Is their any way to change it?
- Is it possible to change default Privileges for new Apps User?
- I am facing this issue in Discoverer 4.1.48, Does discoverer Admin behaves differently in latest Versions?

Nobody helps you except yourself. ;)
So, this query get privileges for user PUBLIC
select eap.ap_id, eap.gp_app_id
from eul5_eul_users eeu,
eul5_access_privs eap
where eeu.eu_username = 'PUBLIC'
and eap.ap_eu_id = eeu.eu_id
and eap.ap_type = 'GP'
In my case
3001     1000
3002     1001
3003     1002
3004     1003
3005     1004
3006     1005
3015     1013
3016     1014
3017     1018
3018     1024
I research а corresponding between gp_app_id (second column) and real name of privilege and get the next list:
1000     Discoverer and Plus Privilege
1001     Create/Edit Query
1002     Item Drill
1003     Drill Out
1004     Grant Workbook
1005     Collect Query Statistics
1006     Administration Privilege
1007     Set Privilege
1008     Create/Edit Business Area
1009     Format Business Area
1010     Create/Edit Summaries
1012     Schedule Workbook
1013     Unknown
1014     Save Workbooks to Database
1015     Manage Scheduled Workbooks
1018     Unknown
1024     Create Link
So, the ID of privilege 'Save Workbooks to Database' is 1014. This privilege exists in table in spite of in Discoverer Administrator this option UNCHECK for user PUBLIC.
This is a REAL BUG!!!
Then I executed query
delete from eul5_access_privs where ap_id = 3016
and after that all became right.
Now please explain me this bug. And I have question - which privileges have IDs 1013 and 1018?
Thank you.

Export/Import with apps user or EUL schema owner ?

Hi,
I am working with a migration plan to move Discoverer 9 to Discoverer 10.
It is an apps mode EUL, where business areas and workbooks have been granted to Apps Users & Responsibilities.
Customer has only maintained the EUL with the database user of the EUL owner.
What is recommended for exporting/importing the EUL from 9 to 10.
To connect to Administrator as the EUL owner, or to connect as an apps user ( SYSADMIN ? )
Will all the grants to apps users/responsibilities work when importing as schema owner ?
I tried to create a entire EUL export file connected as EUL owner, and for the workbooks the export log contained :
1234#.Workbook name1
2345#.Workbook name 2
1234 is the user_id for the workbook owner ( All workbooks have been created by an apps user )
Will the import process manage to convert this user_id, and set the correct owner for the imported workbooks ?
( I will use the option Only take ownership if original owner not found )
I am not sure, but I think I have seen the following syntax in other projects when exporting an apps mode EUL
SYSADMIN.Workbook name 1
SYSADMIN.Workbook name 2

>

Hi,
The best that i know is that you should export using the DB user so that you will not have problem with workbooks or BA that you are not granted for (or any other grants or privileges).
The import should be done using the APPS user (the super user you use).
That way if you import a workbook that the owner will not be found then you will get the ownership and you can after migration deal with it.
If you'll do that with the DB (EUL owner) user after migration you will not have access to those workbooks.
Any way about the workbooks i suggest you'll save them as DIS files for cases that the import of the workbooks or the owner association for them fail.

Created Migration Repository by accident as Apps User! Can I undo it?

I am a very stupid fool, and I am scared that I might have done something to one of our clones on PROD via something I just did in SQL Developer. I am too much of a coward to mention it to one of our DBAs as violence may result from my admission!
I was following this guide:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/11gr1_db/appdev/msamigrate/msamigrate.htm
In case you need it, this is the result from "select * from v$version":
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.4.0 Production
TNS for IBM/AIX RISC System/6000: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Productio
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Anyway, I got to this bit, while connected to the DB as apps user (yes, stupid I know).
On the web guide, I got to this step:
Creating the Migration Repository > 3 > Now you can create the repository in this users connection. Right click on the omwbrep_orcl connection and select Associate Migration Repository
As soon as I clicked it, and it started churning away, I realised I was way, way, way out of my depth, creating stuff on the DB as an apps user (aaaaah, I am a fool).
I cancelled the operation, and was told that something had been created.
I am now really worried I've done something really bad on the database, but I have no idea what I just did, how to check what I did, and if possible, how to undo it.
Any advice much appreciated, and my apologies for being so stupid, and doing stuff as an Apps user without knowing what I was doing.
Thanks

Aaah. I just read this in the JDeveloper help doc:
Delete or Truncate Repository
The Delete Repository dialog box is displayed if you click Migration, then Repository Management, then Delete Repository; the Truncate Repository dialog box is displayed if you click Migration, then Repository Management, then Truncate Repository.
Deleting a repository removes all schema objects that are used for the migration repository. Truncating a repository deletes all data from schema objects that are used for the migration repository, but does not delete the schema objects themselves, effectively leaving you with an empty repository.
Repository: Name of the database connection in which to delete or truncate the migration repository.
I therefore went to Migration Repository > Delete Migration Repository, thinking I would be able to confirm / view anything first, but it just went ahead and deleted a load of stuff.
Can anyone advise please if I have just done something even more stupid than creating a repository in the first place, and then cancelling the operating part way through?
Good grief, I am so stupid :(

Create a new DB user like APPS user

Hi all,
I want to create a database user that have [select] and [execute] privilages for all tables under all schemas in eBusiness Suite database instance.
My aim, is to create a safe user that can execute any query like APPS user do, but he can not update\insert\delete like APPS user do. Because APPS user should be limited to a few DBAs only, while other IT developers need to select or exexte programs only.
the problem come from that not all eBusiness Suite DB objects under one schema, they are distributed under many schemas like APPS, HR, ..ect.
Any advice on how to create such user pls?
Regards
Bas.

Can we import a user list (CSV) into GW to create accounts?

We are needing to add a few hundred new user accounts into GroupWise 2012. Can this be done by importing a user list in the form of a .CSV file or something similar?
Anything would be better than single account creation. Do we need to create a template?
Thanks for any help.

As far as getting the accounts created in edirectory, you typically use an ldap import with an LDIF file, when i've had to bulk create accoutns in edir I normally use a spreadsheet with the accoutn details and a word doc then do a merge to create the required ldif file
however if you already have the accoutns in edirectory, just select your post office object and add the accounts that way and it will create them all for you

Created EUL - Oracle Apps users only

Hello, all!
An EUL was previously created and the Oracle Apps users only was checked, which was supposed to be not. Business areas and folders were already created and i want to reuse all. Is there a way i can change the EUL to make it not for oracle apps users (uncheck or something). I tried exporting the eul but got an error ORA-00942 - table or view does not exist.
Thanks in advance.

Pl post details of OS, database and EBS versions.
You cannot disable/expire seeded EBS accounts (such as AK, ALR, AMF etc).

Create a new user account without share the same apps

Does someone knows how to create a new user without having to share the same apps that i have installed on mine user account?

There are two Applications folder on the Mac. One is at Root and the other is in Home directory.
Any applications in the Applications folder as Root level can be executed by all users of the Mac.
Any applications in the Applications folder in your Home directory can only be executed by you.
Why do you really care anyway?

EBS 11.5.1 - Problem creating user with NO APPS user

Hi everybody.
I am working on an EBS enviroment on demand that we are trying to set up for a Colombian customer. We are trying to set up the connector between Oracle IDentity Manager and EBS and it is not working.
After some test cases we figured out that the main issues are related with the privileges that has the user that is going to interact with the EBS DB Procedures. In fact, we are trying to call this procedure:
declare
user1 varchar2(50);
owner varchar2(50);
begin
user1 := 'USERNAME';
owner := '-23432';
fnd_user_pkg.CreateUser(user1,owner);
end;
IF WE RUN THIS SENTENCE OVER APPS USER (THE EBS ADMIN USER) IT WORKS. HOWEVER when we try to use the OIM user it throws the following error:
Unable to create user USERNAME due to the following reason(s):
Oracle error -1031: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges has been detected in FND_WEB_SEC.VALIDATE_PASSWORD..
ORA-06512: at "APPS.APP_EXCEPTION", line 72
ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_USER_PKG", line 869
ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_USER_PKG", line 915
ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_USER_PKG", line 1034
ORA-06512: at line 1
We already checked the FND_WEB_SEC Package (that has the VALIDATE_PASSWORD function) and it looks like the problem is when it calls the function VALIDATE_PASSWORD_JAVA wich tries to validate the password with a Java task. It looks like the OIM user doesn't have privileges to access this remote java function.
Anyone knows wich is the real problem and how can i solve it??
Many thanks for the help

HT3231 I ended up having to create a new user name because the migration assistant wouldn't let me put the data back onto my original user name. I now have to log into the new user name to see all my data, apps, photographs etc. What went wrong?

I have a Mac that was part of the recall involved with the faulty Seagate hard drives. The folks at the Apple Store near me changed the hard drive early December, 2012. I had my data, etc. all backed up on a portable hard drive. When the Mac was returned with the new hard drive, I used the Migration Assistant to bring everything back over. Trouble was, it wouldn't let me bring it over to my original user name. I was forced to create a new user name that became the place where everything was restored. I can't see any data on my old user name, just the basics. Everything is on the new user name but I wish I didn't have it (just want everything back the way it was originally). Any suggestions?

Probably the cleanest thing to do is to erase and freshly install the operating system on the new drive. Then, on the first boot up, don't create a new user, instead select the option in Setup Assistant to immediately bring things over from your backup, which you must connect via USB or firewire. Setup Assistant will then recretae your old user to look just like it used to.
Before doing this, make sure you realize you will lose everything on the new drive by erasing it, and make sure your backup is still viable.

I installed the CC trial with an error window saying: Could not create the file '/Users/dranim/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/13.2/dummy'. That was the first window. Heres the second: After Effects can’t continue: unexpected failure during application startup I paid for the month subscription of 29.99. It claims it is downloading again?! Am I missing something here? Why is this process so complicated? I need to get this resolved asap and start working.

I originally had Adobe Photoshop Extended, then upgraded to the Production Suite. I ran the Adobe Cleaner, and that uninstalled most Adobe products, including my existing Adobe install, and then I re-installed everything with the same error code. Since CS4 came with CS5, I've installed AE CS4, but would really like to upgrade because I'm new to Creative Suite, and not sure how CS4 integrates with CS5...CS4 After Effects installed perfectly. I do have a 64 bit system, and installing to an OCZ Vertex 2....every other suite installs perfectly, except AE. And I think that is the coolest program in the Suite. I thank you all so much for taking the time to help, I really want to get AECS5 running...I did try to install after doing the recommended items Adobe suggests for Exit Codes 6 and 7, including turning off many startups...
I'm baffled....

FDM "Error: Can't authenticate user" when creating new apps

We are experiencing the above error when trying to create a new FDM application, and cannot seem to get past it. The details are as follows:
- FDM manages to create the folder structure on the server fine, so suspecting SQL or HSS permissions/provisioning
- SQL database is not created
- Creating the SQL database manually beforehand does not help either
- The EPM Admin experiences the same error!
- No FDM logs appear to have been generated in C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\diagnostics\logs\fdqm
We were able to create FDM apps fine at some stage, but cannot now for some reason. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

On the FDM server, from the Start menu, go to All Programs --> Oracle EPM System --> Financial Data Quality Management --> Load Balance Manager --> Load Balance Configuration.
On both the Authentication Providers tab and the Application Servers tab, you should see at least one entry. If you do not see an entry on either of these tabs, enter the appropriate settings on each tab, then go to the General tab and enter the password for the DCOM account. If, on the other hand, the original settings are intact, just go to the General tab and enter the password for the DCOM account. If you enter the correct password and do not get an error, then this verifies that the DCOM settings have not been corrupted.
