Difference between Information Field and Application Field

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the difference between information field and application field in ucm?
Thanks

Information fields are metadata fields that describe the content - by default they will appear on the interface and be searchable etc.
Application fields are a special sort of meta field normally used behind the scenes to help with the logic of forms/templates. Application fields do not normally appear on the interface and are not searchable.
More simply put if you just want to add content metadata just use Information Fields

  • Difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro

    what is the difference between component configuration and application configuration in webdynpro?

    Hi Rohit,
    With the component configuration, you can control the behavior of each individual component within a Web Dynpro application or the user interface of individual views. For each component, several records of configuration data can be created.
    Using the application configuration, it is now possible to assign the configuration required in the current application to all the components used.
    In short : Component Config belongs to WDP Component and Appl'n Config. belongs to WDP Appl'n.
    Check this document for more information.

  • Difference between Business message and application message

    Hi B2B Gurus,
    Can you please explain the difference between Business message and application message?
    Regards,
    Praveen

    Hi Praveen,
    Business message status reports identify business message instance details for a document protocol. These details include the sending and receiving trading partners, the agreement name, the business action, the business message ID, the status, the exchange protocol and document protocol, and message details.
    Application Message Reports provide information related to the SOA Composite—the name, version, and so on, if a back-end composite application sent or received the message.

  • Difference between OA Framework and Application Express?!

    Hi,
    both are for the E-Business Suite and I read that both are in the Webbrowser (=HTML?!). So what are the differences and what is regulary used? thx

    Read this,
    This is straight reply by Sara Woodhull , on this stefan chan's blog, see the fifth reply:
    http://blogs.oracle.com/schan/discuss/msgReader$1721
    From the APEX web page at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html: "Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX), formerly called HTML DB, is a rapid web application development tool for the Oracle database. Using only a web browser and limited programming experience, you can develop and deploy professional applications that are both fast and secure."
    This would have all the same integration issues I mentioned for ADF: no flexfields, no personalization, profiles, and so on. If you are building a completely separate app that happens to use EBS tables, you could use APEX, but you'd have to handle a lot of stuff that OAF does for you.
    BTW, keep in mind that most of the EBS apps handle validation in the UI layer (for Forms) or BC4J, or PL/SQL. You'd need to be sure you handle validation as well so you don't fill your tables with bad data.

  • Differences Between Grid Control and Application Server Console

    Hi,
    I have come across a situation where a customer has an OC4J container and has deplyed several applications in this container. When they access Application Server Control Console thay can stop and start these applications individually.
    However, the customer cannot monitor the status/state of these applications from withing Grid Control. We can see that the OC4J container is either up or down and will be alerted for the change of status. However, if a single application within the container is down they will not be alerted.
    We are using GC 10.2.0.5, iAS 10.1.2.2. Is there a way around this, or dies the Application Server Console have a little extra functionalitly in it compared to Grid Control?
    Tim.

    Hi,
    On your grid control, create a new Notification rule and select "Web Application" from the target drop down and then select your application then in availability tab, select up and down for which you want to receive notification.

  • Confussing between Database User and Application User in Discoverer

    Hi All,
    I am new to Discoverer.
    Please let me know the difference between Database User and Application User in Discoverer Administrator as well as in Discoverer Desktop Editions.
    1) While I am trying to connect to Discoverer Desktop, I am unable to connect to it with Apps Database User.
    2) Where the Discoverer compenent will be installed and what the configuration settings need to done work on it.
    Please let me know the answers soon.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hello
    I think a database user should pretty much be self explanatory - this is a user account that exists in the database. This account is created by your Database Administrator (DBA).
    The second kind of user that Discoverer understands is a user that exists inside Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), formerly known as Oracle Applications, hence an application user. This user account gets created by the EBS system administrator.
    Now, just because you're using EBS, it does not automatically follow that users will be application users. Let me explain.
    Discoverer can be installed in one of two modes, standard mode and Applications mode.
    The vast majority of organizations use standard mode which means they allow database users to access the system.
    The only time that you will need an applications account is under the following two rules:
    1. Your organization is using E-Business Suite, AND
    2. Your Discoverer administrator has installed Discoverer in Applications mode.
    Applicatons mode does not happen automatically, even if you have EBS, and you cannot install that mode by accident. You have to tell Discoverer that it is operating in that mode, provide some additional EBS account information, make security assignments and set users have to deliberately tell Discoverer they want to connect using an applications account.
    May I suggest you get hold of a copy of the Oracle Discoverer 10g Handbook that I wrote. That book explains in detail the differences between the modes. I also have a free white paper on my website that describes how to install Discoverer into Applications mode.
    I hope this helps
    Best wishes

  • Finding difference between Max date and Min date from single date field

    Dear Experts,
    Here I am with a scenario where i didnt find any solution in SDN and in most threads it is unanswered.
    I have 1 KF which is a date field. With reference to Serial no, I want to find out the Max and Min date from the same KF. I created 2 CKF where the same KF is used in both CKF to find the Min and Max dates,
    Ex:
    Serial No | Material | Actual Del date | Max | Min | Difference
    0123 | 300012 | 01.01.2009 | 31.01.2009 | 01.01.2009 | 30
    0123 | 300013 | 07.01.2009 | 31.01.2009 | 01.01.2009 | 30
    0123 | 300018 | 15.01.2009 | 31.01.2009 | 01.01.2009 | 30
    0123 | 300014 | 30.01.2009 | 31.01.2009 | 01.01.2009 | 30
    0124 | 300019 | 02.01.2009 | 10.01.2009 | 02.01.2009 | 8
    0124 | 300012 | 06.01.2009 | 10.01.2009 | 02.01.2009 | 8
    0124 | 300017 | 10.01.2009 | 10.01.2009 | 02.01.2009 | 8
    This is the way how I want the output where now I am able to get the values right till Max and Min and not the difference. I even created the 3rd CKF the find the difference but it is not working.
    How can I find the difference between the Max and Min dates?
    Regards,
    Chan

    Hi
    You have FM --DAYS_BETWEEN_TWO_DATES you can use this while Customer Exit.
    Try to Have 2 RKF for Min Data and Max Date and create a formula/CKF on the same ..
