Integration with EBS HR & Fixed Asset module

Let me know the integration possibilities between:
a) Oracle's EBS's HRMS module and Workforce Planning
b) Oracle's EBS's Fixed Assets module and Workforce Capex Planning
c) Oracle's EBS's AP module and Financial Planning

I am assuming you are implementing Hyperion Workforce/Capex out of the box, right?
In either case (out of the box/custom)... you have (at least) options.
1) Export a flat file from the EBS HRMS/Fixed Asset system and load via FDM.
2) Have FDM connect (via an FDM script) to the EBS HRMS/Fixed Asset database system and pull the correct data needed. This option is assuming you know the HRMS/Fixed Asset database table structure.
I know this is a FDM forum but another option is Oracle Data Integrator (ODI).

Is there any way to rollback mass changes in Oracle 11i Fixed Assets?

Hi there,
We are currently undergoing a massive change in assets depreciation rate with amortization date starting from 01-jan-13. To achieve this we decided to use MassTransactions -> Changes in Oracle Fixed Assets.
There is a preview available, which shows the results on the assets that are affected as well as the changes that we have decided to make. On the other hand, the preview does not consider the accounting results of the change so there is no way to see how the depreciation is affected.
However, someone could see the results using the what-if analysis, but in that case there is no option to use the amortization date in order to see the changes that the adjustment will create.
The only way we could really see the final results is to perform the mass change and then do a test depreciation and see the results. But in case where something is not acceptable by us, is there ANY way to rollback/undo the mass changes we did in the specific period?
If there is no way to do this from the UI, is there any other from the db? ( I know that messing with assets is like playing with fire )
Thanks and Regards,
George

Demo for Fixed asset

Hi All,
Would there be a demo database which has fixed asset configured. I am trying to get me head around the configuration. I think i can work backwords using a demo database.
Regards,
Divam

Hi Divam,
I don't think there is a Demo for Fixed asset since it is not a default configuration. You may search on the forum to find lots of threads dealing with fixed asset configuration. You may search Ivy Zhang to find out those threads.

New user to Oracle 11i who needs help on creation of new fixed asset class

Hi all,
I am new to my Company who is using Oracle 11i. And the Company has a new class of fixed asset and a GL code has been created. But there is no link between the Fixed Asset Manager and the GL code, i.e. depreciation is not linked, additions are not captured into "Cost register", no asset number was assigned in Oracle. Please help.
Thanks,
Simon

Hi.
No, Simon, it does not work that way.
First, be sure that the distribution line has the flag "Track as Asset" checked.
Second, the GL Account to be used on the distribution line must be the one defined, in the FA Asset Category, as the Asset Clearing Account.
In FA, navigate to /Setup/Asset System/Asset Categories. Following, query a Category. There you can see which account has been used as the Asset Clearing Account.
You can use as many Asset Clearing accounts as you which, but normally, all Categories share the same account.
Now reverse the distribution line and cretae a new one with the correct account. Post it, run the Mass Additions Process and you will see the that the addition was created.
Hope this helps.

Upgrade Fixed Assets from 10.7 SC to 11i

I would to gain some knowledge from anyone who has been through a Fixed Assets Upgrade from 10.7 SC to 11i. In particular, I need to understand the steps involved, estimate for the total task, lesson learnt, any technical issues, any relevant training that may be useful and any advice for this task. Thanks in advance.

We have completed our first upgrade of FA from 10.7 SC to 11i. Most issues arose from the introduction of WorkFlow for Account Generator. In addition we have had difficulty activating the "security by book" new feature. This is still under investigation. We upgraded PO, AP, FA and GL. I can say that more than half of our time has been spent resolving FA issues.
The length of time the task will take will depend on which functionality you use. Have you seen the upgrade kit on metalink? it has all the upgrade steps. From that you could determine how many steps you need to perform.
Hope this helps.

How to post/configure revaluation of Fixed Assets

hello gurus,
i want step by step customization for revaluating fixed assets.
regards,
anand

Hi,
For revaluation of asset we have two options available
1.Indexed Replacement:In this case change in value of asset is posted automatically at the time of depreciation posting.In this method we have to define index series.Follow the steps given below
a. Deifne dep area (OR64) In this step we determine the dep area in which we want to manage revaluation of assets.
b.Define Index series(OAV5)
c.Enter index series in asset class or asset master record(as02) for the specific dep area.
2.Revaluation with Inflation management: In this case either we can go for one time revaluation or periodic revaluation.

Cloning EBS 11i Bug

Hi hussein,
I have been cloning our EBS 11i for many times before at it was good. Lately I applied set of patches. Then what happened is every time I clone, I have to edit the http.conf
The patches have affected the public access of the system, in a way that it seems “disabling” the public IP access. This was caused by the patch updating the “httpd.conf” file.
HTTPD.conf is a server configuration file which typically contains directives that affect how the server runs, such as user and group IDs it should use, and location of other files. Because the server configuration file is the main file that the server starts with, Oracle HTTP Server does not include any directive that says where to locate it. The location is passed on command line when the server starts.
This file is located at:
TRNG
/uo1/oracle/oatrngora/iAS/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
PROD
/u02/oracle/oaprodora/iAS/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
To resolve the public IP access problem, edit the httpd.conf file and find the following lines:
==========================================
# Port: The port to which the standalone server listens. For
# ports < 1023, you will need httpd to be run as root initially.
Port 8000
Listen oracletrng.abc.local:8000
===========================================Remove the hard-coded Server.DNS name as shown below.
===========================================
# Port: The port to which the standalone server listens. For
# ports < 1023, you will need httpd to be run as root initially.
Port 8000
Listen 8000
============================================Then restart the Oracle Apps Services (apps tier only).
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks a lot

Usages a fixed assets

Hi
The company has fixed assets and we want to charge the cost of fixed assets usage to a project. What do you recommend us?
Thanks.
Edited by: user1076895 on 21/07/2010 06:22 PM

Well, what version of EBS are you on? I ask because in R12 Oracle has come out with a new module called Oracle Asset Tracking. This new module has some integration to Oracle Projects. We are still on EBS 11i, so have no personal experience with this new module. Since this is a new module, I suspect very few Oracle customers are using it so far. If you are on EBS 12, you might want to investigate this. I certainly will not say this is something that will work for your specific requirements.
For us, it does not help us. Oracle certainly has a deficiency in its ERP software in that it lacks any kind of equipment billing/equipment accounting module. I can tell you what we are doing. Our prior (to Oracle) ERP software had a pretty decent Equipment Billing/Accounting module. Was not perfect, but it worked pretty well. We could charge jobs for rental equipment by the day, week, or month. We could sell our jobs consumable materials through the order processing capability. We went live on Oracle on January 1, 2008 (talk about a painful process). We are still using our old ERP software to do our equipment cost and revenue processing. We extract on a monthly basis (billing done at end of month) the cost and revenue charges for the month into an Excel Spreadsheet and then load that spreadsheet into Oracle, going into expenditure batches. The expenditure type is USG (usage) and we have various non-labor resource values used, depending on the location (we have warehouses/yards in a couple of different U.S. cities).
We are still looking for a replacement for the old ERP software. Any such replacement would be non-Oracle software. So we would still need to interface that software to Oracle Project Costing.
In the old software, the equipment master was separate from the assets master. But certainly for many of the equipment items, they would also be an asset and getting depreciated (for example, a construction crane, that we would rent to jobs, and since own would be an asset that we would depreciate).
Why don't you ask your Oracle sales rep what he would recommend? Would be interesting to see what he tells you.

Fixed Asset - Clients out of Sync.

All:
I am doing a fixed asset migration and I am having an issue. In the asset explorer I am getting the following message "No postings for selected fiscal year". I have supplied the system with a acquisition value and a net book value for both book depreciation and ACRS/MACRS. In the Development system I am getting values for depreciation when I follow the same procedure using AS91/AS92 to supply the acquisition and book value. I am piggy backing off of configuration done by a consultant and the transport path has since been changed so I can see his transports but cant move them through as the CTS path is incorrect. I am trying my best to compare the core configuration and get the clients in sync but have not been successful so far. I am looking for any help and or advice on how to proceed. Thanks!

Fixed Assets Mid-Month rule using non-calendar fiscal months.

Our fiscal year variant is year dependent with twelve posting periods. For example, period 11 for fiscal year 2007 is defined as 29-Oct-07 through 25-Nov-07 and period 12 is defined as 26-Nov-07 through 31-Dec-07.
Fixed Asset depreciation keys MSTL and NA1 use period control 03 (Pro rata at mid-period). Period control 03 is currently not configured in our SAP development system. The IMG help text for Use of Half Months in the Company Code states that You cannot use half periods with non-calendar fiscal months.
How do USA companies configure mid-month depreciation keys (like MSTL and NA1) and mid-quarter depreciation keys when they use non-calendar fiscal months?

Mike,
Would be helfpul if you can describe how you resolved the above issue
Thanks.
