DB Connection in Oracle Self Service Modules

Hi,
I have one question about oracle Self Service modules.
I am using Oracle Ebusiness Suite 11.5.10 on Oracle 10g database.
What database user it connects to when we login to Oracle Apps Self service modules?
Assuming that its 'APPS' db user, can I change this db user to some other user ?
We are planning to archive and purge the workflow tables to another database and want to access that
data using db link.
So, we want to access archived data stored in other database using the db link.
Can somebody explain me how to achieve this?
Thanks,
DR

What database user it connects to when we login to Oracle Apps Self service modules?Apps user.
Assuming that its 'APPS' db user, can I change this db user to some other user ? You cannot change this user as it is not easy to do that, plus you would lose support (unless you have your own custom module).
We are planning to archive and purge the workflow tables to another database and want to access that data using db link.
So, we want to access archived data stored in other database using the db link.
Can somebody explain me how to achieve this?Is it OK for you to create a user like Apps user with read only privileges? If yes, have a look at the following link:
Apps - Read Only Schema in Oracle APPS 11i

  • OTL & Self Service Module on internet

    Hi,
    We are using OTL and self service module in R12.1.3/11gr2. We are looking to deploy OTL and Self Service to be on Internet but other modules are not like GL etc. Employee don't need to come secure office connection and do their work or submit time sheet etc. Please point me if any ML document or presentation , how to configure OTL and Self service module on internet.
    thanks

    Hi,
    All you have to do is assign the profile Responsibility Trust Level to a responsibility which users want to access outside the secured area.
    Make sure the value is External for this profile.
    If you want to give access to only a set of functions under a responsibility, then you will have to create a new responsibility.

  • FAIL TO CONNECT TO OID SELF SERVICE CONSOLE AND SSO

    Since a server crash on 29 Dec I have been unable to connect to OID Self Service Console or login with SSO (even though EM says both are up). When the mid-tier went down http server, portal and webcache would not start due to all three looking for wrong wallet location. Placed and saved correct wallet loc. in ssl.conf and all three came up. SSO engine would not run until I changed the password and ran ssooconf.sql

  • Oracle Self Service time

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me that how to have default into oracle self service time. For e.g suppose if i have not submitted time card from 6/12-6/18 then in the week of 6/19 - 6/25, I should see the timecard for 6/12-6/18 in oracle self service time not for 6/19-6/25

    Unless you are on R12.1, you can't control this value. If you are on 12.1, Default Timecard Period has been added to preference Self Service Timecard Period for a Worker, where the following options are available:
    Period on or after system date
    Earliest Period prior to system date
    Closest Period prior to system date

  • Date Formats in Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service

    Can someone tell me what determines the Date format that appears on Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service ?
    *1.* In Oracle HRMS,all dates i see on the Forms are of the Format "MM/DD/YYYY" but my NLS Parameters are not in this format .I'm giving the results for the NLS parameters below.I thought the date formats are determined by the NLS format.Is there something else that determines the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms ?
    NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
    NLS_TERRITORY     :AMERICA
    NLS_INSTANCE_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
    NLS_TERRITORY     :america
    NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
    NLS_TERRITORY     :america
    *2* What about the profile option : ICX_DATE_FORMAT_MASK ? Does it determine the Date Format for Self Service alone or does it impact the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms and the actual database also ?
    *3* If I use a to_date function in ,say, a pl/sql function that i code for some custom requirements,what will be the output of the date format ? Does it take the format given in NLS paramaters or is it determined by anything else?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply ,but I'm still confused ..
    Here are the profile options I'm seeing for one of my instance :
    ICX: Date format mask - 12/31/1999
    ICX: Date language - American English
    ICX: Language - American English
    ICX: NLS Sort - BINARY
    ICX: Territory - United States
    ICX: Numeric characters - NULL
    NLS parameters are given in my original email.
    In Self Service applications(OAF) ,the date format is appearing in "mm/dd/yyyy" format but when i login to Forms based applications ,I see the date format as "dd-mon-yyyy".What determines this date format ?
    How can i make the date format to always return one format everywhere ,be it Self Service (OAF) or Oracle Forms ?
    I'm getting date format related errors for my code because of default date formats changing intermittently when i log into Self Service.I want to know if there is anyway to prevent this from happening?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Unable to create JCO connections for ESS self service

    Hello SDN,
    I am configuring the ESS for an EP 7.0 and a ECC 6.0(EP and ECC are combined in one instance).
    I need to configure some JCO connections at:
    http://host:port/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcwdtools/Explorer
    But i cannot create any JCO connection from there. I filled in all fields that are necessary. But I keep receiving this error messages:
    MsgServerName is not defined.
    SystemName is not defined.
    LogonGroupName is not defined.
    Which is strange because I have defined the right message server. The SLD connection to the SLD is working fine. I have upgraded the SLD and the EP java stack to SP 9.0 which is the highest level.
    Does anyone know the solution for this problem?
    Thanx in advance,

  • Oracle Portal for HR Self Service

    Hi All,
    I am new to HR Self Service implementation. Can anyone tell me what is the role of Oracle Portal in Self Service HR? Is it mandatory to have Oracle Portal when we implement Self Service HR?
    Appreciate any fast reply.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    What is the application release?
    Not sure if I understand you correctly, but I believe having Oracle Portal installed/configured is not mandatory (it is optional like configuring SSO). Please see these documents (check the referenced docs/links in these documents) for details.

    Dear all:
    I have to HR-Self Service module to the new server(from one linux redhat3.0 server to another linux redhat3.0 server),but I don't know which file or folder should I copy and what step should I do? Can someone tell me?

    regards

    Hi,
    1) What folder is the standard SSHR module contained? $PER_TOP
    2) which files should I copy from the old server? You will need to check what custom database objects you have and move it. For forms/reports, check under the product module and copy the files.
    3) iSetup is also apply to the 11i ?Yes.

  • HOW TO Restrict Absence Type LOV Self Service in 12.1.3

    Hi All,
    Will someone please inform of whar is the package to use for this new feature restriction as stated below. Thanks.
    From new feature PDF 12.1.3:
    3.26.4.6. Restrict Absence Type LOV
    Prior to this release, all absence types created using Oracle HRMS are displayed to users in Self-Service HR. With this release, implementers can update ""a package"" to restrict the absence types that are displayed to users based on the business requirements. This feature ensures that employees enter only those absences for which they are eligible, and managers do not have to verify the validity of the absence type of employee requests.

    Apologies for the delay here.
    The package in question is hr_absence_restricted. You replace the Package Body of this package so that the function absences_restricted returns a comma-separated array of Absence Type ids that SHOULD NOT be displayed.
    For example,
    RETURN '123, 456, 789'
    Would prevent Absence Type Ids 123, 456 and 789 from appearing in the user's List of Values. This is supposed to be described in the following Oracle Article but it's not published:
