E-business suite book recommendations

Hi, I used oracle Apps 10.7 about 8 years ago (and can remember very little). I have only been doing core development DBA work since. I am interested in doing a bit of a tech refresh with 11.5+/12 and also RAC, I would appreciate any recommendations for books that will expedite the refresh and explain things clearly without too much "fluff".
Many Thanks.

I would suggest you start with Oracle Apps Documentation.
Applications Releases 11i and 12
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
Oracle Database Documentation
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database.html
- Oracle Applications Concepts
- Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install
- Maintaining Oracle Applications Documentation Set
- Oracle Applications System Administrator's Documentation Set
Once you get familiar with the architecture and the different components of Oracle Apps, consider the following:
- Do an Apps installation yourself (on Linux/Windows)
- Set up users/responsibilities/printers/CM ..etc
- Practice Cloning
- Apply Patches
- Practice AutoConfig to manage system configurations
- Upgrade Database/Application
Go for Oracle Apps training if you can afford it. Moreover, consider to get the following books:
Oracle Applications DBA Field Guide
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Applications-DBA-Field-Guide/dp/1590596447
Installing, Upgrading and Maintaining Oracle E-Business Suite Applications Release 11.5.10+

Hello Team,
We are currently in R12.1.3 version and we have applied the below patch as an upgrade.
Patch 19030202: Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3+ Recommended Patch Collection 2 [RPC2]
After apply this patch we are losing the existing feature
-     Sorting secondary price list on price list form is not working at all
and the new feature on this patch
-     This patch will resolve the creation of Orphan records in OM Interface table, when a header record is deleted from Corrections screen
     But when i delete the data from correction screen still the line level data is on the table (it didn't delete the Orphan records)
Please let me know any body come across this issue and solution if you have.
Thanks,
Dhasa

API for creating new User in Oracle E-Business Suite through BPEL

Hello,
I would like to use a BPEL process to create a new User in Oracle E-Business Suite. In the Integration Repository I was able to find an API called FND_USER_PKG/LOAD_ROW that creates/updates Application's User data. Is this the API I should be using? If so, I would like to better understand how to use this API.
I have created a simple BPEL process and added an Oracle Application Service, which uses this FND_USER_PKG/LOAD_ROW API. I set the following parameter before Invoking the Oracle Application Service: X_USER_NAME, X_ENCRYPTED_USER_PASSWORD and X_START_DATE. When I run the BPEL process I get the following error. I suspect that I am not passing all the required input parameters. Does anyone have any sample data I can use to get this API to load correctly? If I am using the wrong API, please let me know.
Please note, I have also posted this question to the SOA Suite and BPEL discussion forums...
Thank you kindly!
Christine

Hello and thank you for your response. I am new to using APIs so please excuse my inexperience... I am not sure how to run the API outside of BPEL... Is that something you could easily walk me through?
I have made the following changes in BPEL based on your recommendation: 1) Added Oracle Application Service and used the API, LDAP_WRAPPER_CREATE_USER, found in the Oracle Application Module Browser* under: Applications Technology (ATG_PF)> User Management (UMX)> User (FND_USER)> PLSQL> User (FND_USER_PKG)> LDAP_WRAPPER_CREATE_USER
2) Set the following parameter prior to Invoking the Oracle App Service: X_USER_NAME, X_UNENCRYPTED_PASSWORD,X_START_DATE, X_END_DATE, X_DESCRIPTION, X_EMAIL_ADDRESS, X_FAX, X_EXPIRE_PWD.
3) Deploy and run BPEL through BPEL Control.
I get the following {color:#ff0000}error on the Invoke{color}. {color:#339966}Do you see any issues with the values I am passing in the input{color}? Any idea why I am getting this error? Is there anything that I need to have configured for the API to work correctly, other than adding an Oracle Application Service in the BPEL?
Thank you for your time,
Christine

OEM 12c E-Business Suite Plugin Issue

Hello All,
I am currently new to OEM 12c, and I have the latest version installed and running, Version     12.1.0.2.0. So far everything has been running great, and agents have been downloaded and deployed with little to no issues. However, I am now trying to deploy the E-Business Suite Plug-in to the Management Server first, and I receive an error:
Stop management server

When I look further, I see this in the logs:

I can't seem to find any helpful info on the errors concerning EM-04001 and EM-04026. I did see that there was a bug fix which was required, bug number 13242773. But reading the ReadMe says this is only for OEM version 12.1.0.1.0.
So, my question is, has anyone run into this problem, or have any suggestions on how to get this plug-in deployed successfully?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,
I haven’t run into the same errors you have reported but, let me share with you our recommended way of installing E-Business Suite Plug-in. Start by referencing our “Getting Start” MOS note 1434392.1it contains all the required patches, certification details, and related documentation. Once you are ready to perform the install start out by reviewing Chapter 2 - Installing the Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite of our Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Guide Release 12.1.0.1.0. Here is a direct link -http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e28715.pdf
If after following the above steps you are still encountering errors then open a Service Request with Oracle Support.

Login issue to E-business suite from desktop

Hi All,
I have installed oracle ebs 11.5.10.2 on a linux x86 machine and started the application. I tested the application by entering the url http://apps.test.com:8005
and I am able to login using my user id and password.
While the above is working good, I went to my laptop and tried the same url, but the browser doesn't open the login page. How can I fix this issue?
my desktop domain is cfl.rr.com. Does this cause any issue?
Thanks and Regards,
Badri.

Hi Badri;
I have installed oracle ebs 11.5.10.2 on a linux x86 machine and started the application. I tested the application by entering the url http://apps.test.com:8005

my desktop domain is cfl.rr.com. Does this cause any issue?You try to login from windows client right? If answer yes what is your windows OS?(xp-vista etc) I assume you are using Xp then, you have to follow those steps:
1. Add your http://apps.test.com:8005 to your trusted site
2. Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and edit your hosts file , add your site information there like:
10.x.x.x apps.test.com
3. Be sure you use certifed browser, please check:
Recommended Browsers for Oracle E-Business Suite 11i Doc ID: 285218.1
4. If possible close windows firewall
And retest issue
Hope it helps

Run “/usr/sbin/rcoracle start“ to set kernel parameters.
1) Setup the environment as you would for running Applications on RH 4 or SLES9
I.E. follow Oracle Applications Installation Update Notes, Release 11i (11.5.10.2)
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=316806.1
2) Remove any LD_ASSUME_KERNEL references in O/S /etc/profile.d files. While in oracle and applmgr .profile, add the following:
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libInternalSymbols.so
3) Comment out LD_ASSUME_KERNEL entries in $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh and $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh
if [ ${setflag}x = "x" -a $os = "Suse" ]; then
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.21"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
os="Suse"
fi
if [ ${setflag}x = "x" -a $os = "RH" ]; then
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.19"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
os = "RH"
fi
If doing a rapid install, the database startup will fail and rapidwiz will prompt to ignore or retry. At this point, edit $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above and click on retry. It will then run to the autoconfig step at the end and error out. Just hit cancel, edit $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above.
At this point, go to $APPL_TOP/admin, and in sid_host.xml,
replace
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.4.2_04</sun_plugin_ver>
with
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.5.0_10</sun_plugin_ver>
Then run autoconfig.
This will allow you to open 11i forms that require Jinitiator in Windows via the Sun Java Plugin in either Firefox or SeaMonkey (the Mozilla replacement) on your Suse 10.2 machine once allowing popups and checking always trust Oracle content on the initial java warning.
Look at your port pool selections while running autoconfig and comment out any ports for /etc/services and reboot. Port 8201 was preventing apache web pls listener from starting.
4) In order to relink cplex library executables (MSC, MSO, MSR, MST, WIP, etc), edit $AD_TOP/bin/adrelinknew.sh and add the following LD option (-Wl,--noinhibit-exec) in the LINUX section:
LINUX)
LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'
DEBUG_LDFLAGS='-g -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'
exe_line='ELF .*executable'
SHRLIB_LD='gcc'
LD='gcc'
SHRLIB_LDFLAGS='-L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -shared'
if test -f "/etc/redhat-release"; then
CPP_LIBS='/usr/lib/libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so'
elif test -f "/etc/SuSE-release"; then
CPP_LIBS='/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9'
else
CPP_LIBS=''
fi
CPP='g++'
CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs
set CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs
to CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -Wl,--noinhibit-exec'
After this chance, you can apply any MRP, ASCP patch and all executables will relink correctly. You can also use adadmin to relink all executables and it completes without error.
5) For Discoverer 4.1.48.08, Follow Metalink Note 280598.1 Discoverer 4i On Linux: Required Patch and Configuration for Discoverer Server Stability to use JDK 1.3.1 and oadj. I updated the autoconfig template files with this change after applying 3895177. Discoverer viewer and plus standard BIS reports all open correctly on SLES-10/Suse 10.1
6) If you want to apply Developer 6i Patchset 17 or 18 to your 11i system, edit $ORACLE_HOME/forms60/lib/cus_forms60w.mk and ins_forms60w.mk and remove the -Bstatic

I have relinked every Oracle Home and applications executables without errors.

Great. The only other setup I would add is if your machine's wired ethernet is ever disconnected, the default setup for OpenSuse 10.2 is to have the interface up when the cable is plugged. In that case, you cannot ping your host if you use static IP address for wired connection and DHCP for wireless. Open YaST, Network Devices. Highlight the wired interface, and select Edit. Then on the General Tab, change the Device Activation from On Cable Connection to At Boot Time.

Performance of Sales order creation on Business Suite on HANA

Hi,
I understand that HANA column tables are read and insert optimized. I would like get some clarification on the following scenario.
Assume that in the ECC (non HANA DB) the sales order creation process is taking few hours to complete due to the sheer number of line items and associated bill of materials, serial numbers etc. If the same process is running on the Business suite on HANA system will there be any considerable performance improvement (because HANA column tables are insert optimized)?
Thanks for your help on this.
Thanks
Vinod

Yes Vinod,
that is the general idea.
For more details please have a look at Hasso Plattner's latest book A Course in In-Memory Data Management: The Inner Mechanics of In-Memory Databases.
R/3 updates the row table based on V1 or V2 priorities and writes the changes to the change log tables in the background.
With HANA application we can eliminate the need for the change log tables and table locking, by inserting the changes for particular fields into the columnar tables of the application with a time stamp immediately, and therefore also enabling real-time reporting.
For traditional RDBMS based applications the notion was that the faster read from the row tables which only hold the latest updates justifies the update of the changelog tables. In order to optimize this update process required by the traditional RDBMS-based systems, a single sales document was split into many smaller tables, like for example header table VBAK and item table VBAP and separate status tables for these header and items, which also made it more challenging to build reports on the complex set of individual tables.
Indices and aggregates could be more easily build from the single row records, but on the flipside after each update to the row table, the indices and aggregates needed to be re-build or scheduled for rebuild at a later point in time. Not only the application-build index tables and aggregates, but also the secondary index tables created by the DBA tuning efforts.
Overall tons of overhead especially for business processes with a many updates like sales order re-scheduling based on MRP runs.
With HANA this is no longer necessary as the latest information and the time travel from the columnar store can be accessed instantaneously across all inserts and therefore eliminates the need for any overhead of the index and aggregates as well as the changelog tables. In addition the split of document information into many smaller tables can now be avoided, so that we might not see any header tables and their dependent tables anymore.
We will provide more updates as they become available in the S/4 SAP S/4 Business Suite on SAP HANA (FAQ)
Thank you

How To Install E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Media Pack On Windows Server

Hi Every body,
I am trying to install Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Media Pack on Windows Server
and hope to find guidance and answers to some points
1- which Windows Server Version would be better for this installation Windows Server 2003 or 2008?
-- Currently I have Windows Server Enterprise Edition 2008 SP2 32-Bit Update (2010-12-15).
2- Is it possible to run the installation on Windows 7?
-- My knowledge is that Oracle certified Windows 7 as an EBS client machine (means IE8) and Oracle certifies Server systems to run Oracle server applications and Databases.
and certifies desktop machines to run the client side applications So >>
3- If I do not need the Oracle support over my EBS , then is that means that I am free to successfully install and run the EBS on my desired system? or what is the importance of Oracle systems certification any way ? 4- I need a step by step installation guide for the version you recommend ?. -- >(The MOST important Point)
-- I am new to EBS world
5- If I completed the installation successfully then would I be able to login to EBS from the same machine ?
-- I am trying to install EBS on my Toshiba L500 Laptop which its resources is
(Processor Core(TM) i3 M330 @ 2.13 GHz
RAM 4 GB
HD 320 GB). and I want this Installation for both functional and technical learning.
I know guys this questions may cause headache to answer but I'd really appreciate your patience.

1- which Windows Server Version would be better for this installation Windows Server 2003 or 2008?
-- Currently I have Windows Server Enterprise Edition 2008 SP2 32-Bit Update (2010-12-15). The list of supported OS can be found in (Oracle E-Business Suite Installation and Upgrade Notes Release 12 (12.1.1) for Microsoft Windows Server (32-bit) [ID 761567.1]).
2- Is it possible to run the installation on Windows 7?
-- My knowledge is that Oracle certified Windows 7 as an EBS client machine (means IE8) and Oracle certifies Server systems to run Oracle server applications and Databases.
and certifies desktop machines to run the client side applications So >> No -- Windows 7 is certified as a client tier only (Recommended Browsers for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 [ID 389422.1]).
3- If I do not need the Oracle support over my EBS , then is that means that I am free to successfully install and run the EBS on my desired system? or what is the importance of Oracle systems certification any way ? Certification means running your application/database on a combination of OS/Hardware so whenever you have an issue, Oracle support will be able to help in troubleshooting -- You need to run your application on a certified OS.

What are your top 10 issues to upgrade E-Business Suite

Hi everyone,
My name is Max Arderius, Product Manager for Life Cycle Management products in Oracle. We are doing a big effort to help customers to simplify their E-Business Suite upgrade. We are trying to collect all the information we can to identify the top issues that customers are facing before, during or after E-Business Suite upgrades. We are really committed to address all possible issues and so we can prevent usual problems, showstoppers, inconveniences, lack of documentation and other technical difficulties.
What would you say are your top 10 issues that faced to upgrade to R12? Or what would you like Oracle to address in the near future to make your life easier?
I am looking forward for your postings! Thanks!
Max

Hi Max ! Hope you are well :-)
One thing that I assume most folks would find useful is a pre-upgrade script that can do some basic checks to identify any potential issues that need to be addressed before the upgrade starts.
A simple example is documented in MOS Doc 802515.1 (R12 Upgrade: Workers Fail In Apstca01.Sql) - the profile option in our system was set to NULL (the default) and the apstca01.sql failed in the middle of the first test upgrade - not a big issue, but would have been nice to have this corrected before the upgrade.
I am sure that are hundreds of such "gotchas" from all the various modules :-)
This script is almost analogous to the database pre-upgrade script/tool (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17222/upgrade.htm#UPGRD12395) that performs some checks and makes recommendations.
Thanks

From an Oracle Apps DBA perspective, I would suggest the following:
Start with Oracle Apps Documentation.
Applications Releases 11i and 12
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
- Oracle Applications Concepts
- Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install
- Maintaining Oracle Applications Documentation Set
- Oracle Applications System Administrator's Documentation Set

- Do an Apps installation yourself (on Linux/Windows)
- Set up users/responsibilities/printers/CM ..etc
- Practice Cloning
- Apply Patches
- Practice AutoConfig to manage system configurations
- Upgrade Database/Application
Go for Oracle Apps training if you can afford it. Moreover, consider to get the following books:
