EBS architecture regarding DB, tablespace, users and tables

Hi All,
I do have some questions regarding the database, data model, table space... architecture of an EBS 12.1.1 installation (I use Windows 2008 as platform):
1)
Table space:
Is it correct that the table space used for EBS Apps tables is applsys? Is there more than one table space used for EBS tables?
2)
User:
The Database user used by EBS to connect to the DB is "apps", right? The users mfg, sysadmin... are logical users which do not have a correspondent db account. Is that correct as well?
3)
DB Access:
How can I setup the right environment to access the DB. In order to execute sqlplus, I need to set a proper environment. There is a script called "c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\VIS_ebs1.cmd". Is that the right script?
I do have more that one script with that name. Example: C:\oracle\VIS\inst\apps\VIS_ebs1\ora\10.1.3\VIS_ebs1.cmd
How do I know, which one is the right script for what purpose?
4)
Data model and tables:
I found etrm which should give an overview of the EBS data model (and much more), but up to know, I'm not wuite sure how to use it to find the information I'm looking for.
Example: I would like to know where EBS items are stored. I found these tables:
INVFG_ITEMS
INVFV_ITEMS.
In INVFG_ITEMS I was able to find my newly created items, but is it the "main" table for items. How can I find that out? Is etrm the right tool for this?
In etrm, there is a section with FND and another section with DBA. What is the difference and when would I use which section?
I'm sorry for that much questions but right now, my understanding of the EBS and it's architecture is still very basic and these are things which I need to know in order to get a better picture...
Many thanks,
Konrad

Hi Konrad;
1)
Table space:
Is it correct that the table space used for EBS Apps tables is applsys? Is there more than one table space used for EBS tables?There are some other tablespace for EBS. Please check Oracle Application Concept manuel Part 3-4
For r12.1.1:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B53825_01/current/html/docset.html
2)
User:
The Database user used by EBS to connect to the DB is "apps", right? The users mfg, sysadmin... are logical users which do not have a correspondent db account. Is that correct as well?For windows installation there is only one user for can connect db and apps and also run utulity liek (adpatch etc)
For unix/linux we can use 2 users,1 for dbtier and other for appstier.
MFG sysadmin etc... those are EBS user which is pre-define before.
Please check user guide and also installation guide
For r12.1.1:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B53825_01/current/html/docset.html
3)
DB Access:
How can I setup the right environment to access the DB. In order to execute sqlplus, I need to set a proper environment. There is a script called "c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\VIS_ebs1.cmd". Is that the right script?For Windows, for can accsess apps or db you have top run env file, This file contains information about your ebs. You have to run below cmd for can access for db or apps
For db:
c:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\11.1.0\VIS_ebs1.cmd (SID_Hostname.cmd)
For apps:
c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\APPSVIS_ebs1.cmd (APPSSID_Hostname.cmd)

Required Field name and Table name

Hi All,
My customer is extracting DATA from SAP and send it to Oracle. In oracle we have 3 fields
1. Unapplied Amount: means for example, there is a invoice for $50.00 and customer sends the payment of $100.00, so customer paid $50.00 extra, this $50.00 will be called as a Unapplied amount.
2. DEPOSIT DATE : Now the day when the customer sends the payment will be called DEPOSIT DATE
3. GL_DATE: On the day when invoice gets cleared and updates the GL, will be called as GL_DATE
If any one has any idea regarding the above fields and tables please let me know.
Thanks & Best Regards
Shashi

hello,
if i am right in understanding your question, then you wanted to know the technical details about the project number or should i say project id, from which wbs elements are created, on which we finally place the orders.
if this is what you want, then for getting the prject number for a particular order, at the table level, follow the below steps -
using the po number or order number as an input in ekkn table, along with the po line item, you will get the wbs element for the order number for that particular po line item.
and using this wbs element as an input in prps table, you can find the current project number.
finally using this current project number as an input in the table proj, you can find the project id or project number = proj-pspid
so you will require 3 tables to get the required details.
hope this helps you.
Regards,
Zafar.

Enterprise User and Multi Thread Server

Could some please share experience about issues regarding

Is MTS transparant for Enterprise User authentication ?

If you build simpserv with -t, and set MIN and MAXDISPATCHTHREADS, you
should have an example of a multithreaded server.

Does anyone know/have such an example?
And is anyone using multi-contexting in a server, because the limitation that

Active users and responsibilities r12

Is there a query for R12 of oracle EBS to list all active users and the responsibilities they have been assigned to? I only want to data to return the list of responsibilities for active users, i.e. those without an end_date.

The following query finds all the responsibilities that are assigned to a user. This query can be useful if you want to know if a user has a particular responsibility or any responsibility that has been end dated. However, if you just want to see the current "Active" responsibilities of the user, uncomment the "FURG.END_DATE" condition (very bottom line of the query).
In the following example, I used "AMOHSIN" as my user name to list all my responsibilities.
-- Query to find all responsibilities of a user
SELECT fu.user_name                "User Name",
frt.responsibility_name "Responsibility Name",
       furg.start_date             "Start Date",
       furg.end_date               "End Date",
       fr.responsibility_key       "Responsibility Key",
fa.application_short_name "Application Short Name"

How to recreate EBS user and keep all his historical data.

Hi all
We have a user that is having an issue seeing any of his scheduled Discoverer reports within the Schedule Manager window of Discoverer Plus; Discoverer Desktop works fine.
The solution for it's to recreate the EBS user. The problem with this is that, if we recreate the EBS user, he will lose all historical data connected to that user, including the results of the scheduled Discoverer reports as well as all of the EBS created/last updated information.
There is a way to recreate an EBS user and preserve the historical references.
Thanks

The problem with this is that, if we recreate the EBS user, he will lose all historical data connected to that user, including the results of the scheduled Discoverer reports as well as all of the EBS created/last updated information.Why do you need to recreate the user?
Are you saying you are going to create a new username for the same user and end-date the old one?
There is a way to recreate an EBS user and preserve the historical references.I believe there is no such a way to find all records/tables with the old user_id. Even if you find the list and update them manually, I believe this approach is not supported.
Please log a SR to confirm the same with Oracle support.

In weblogic server when I Setting Up a User and Tablespace for the Server M

In weblogic server when I Setting Up a User and Tablespace for the Server Migration Leasing Table in Sql Plus I got an error. ORA-00972: identifier is too long

Refer: How to: Grant User Access to a Report Server (Report Manager), but this gives a step-by-step procedure for
adding users who are a part of the Domain. In your case you are trying to add users who are not a part of the domain, meaning, you are trying to create users only specific to Reporting Services, am I right?
But Reporting Services either relies on AD to authenticate the users, or you can create a custom-authentication extension to authenticate the users.
In your case, you might need use a custom security extension, and use that to create/delete/modify users. Check the Forms authentication Sample here:
http://msftrsprodsamples.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=SS2008%21Security%20Extension%20Sample&referringTitle=Home

Subject area security validating users and groups from external table

Hi all.
I don't have practice to put question here, but there is one problem, that seems don't work correctly in OBIEE.
I'm trying to put users in groups within external table and this works fine.
I put security on the subject area level like this:
SA1 -> GroupA allow, Everyone not allow
SA2 -> GroupB allow, Everyone not allow
External table:
User----------Group
A---------GroupA;GroupB
B---------GroupB
Users A, B and GroupA, GroupB exists in the RPD, but I didn't put users inside them, I want this from table.
From the init block, external table I'm taking users and join them in the group. Same name users and groups are also in the presentation service.
When i connect with user A i don't see any subject area, when go to My Account i see in Group Membership/GroupA and GroupB, so it's readed from the external table.
Why in this case the subject area permission is not working?
It works if I explicitly put users in groups, in the RPD.
I have read this blog entry http://kpipartners.blogspot.com/2009/07/groups-webgroups-and-delivers.html and it is said that this works, but I'm interested how.
What should we have in the presentation part, administration, Manage Privileges -> Access within Oracle BI Answers option for those two subject area?
This doesn't work or something is missing:
Re: Security on Subject Areas
Regards
Goran
http://108obiee.blogspot.com

What should we have in the presentation part, administration, Manage Privileges -> Access within Oracle BI Answers option for those two subject area?Yes, you should remove Everyone and add the relevant groups to each Subject Area. You don't need to set privileges in the RPD, in fact that's probably why it doesn't work for you. Leave your RPD Presentation Catalog as "Everyone" = Read as you will controlling access from the Presentation Services and it should work.

HI,
The user is in Z DB tables so i cant delete it with this bapi,
The problem is when i have 4 table and i want to delete the user from them like that :
DELETE FROM: (sv_user_table_name) WHERE userid = iv_user_id,
               (sv_add_fld_table_name) WHERE userid = iv_user_id,
               (sv_att_table_name) WHERE userid = iv_user_id,
               (sv_app_attributes_table_name) WHERE userid = iv_user_id.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE .....
if the user are exist in the first and the second table and not in the third and four
i get the sy-subrc = 4 despite the user has deleted from the first and seconed tables
there is nice way to overcome this issue ?
