EBS Integration

Hi everyone,
I have a requirement where i have to pass some HRMS related data from Oracle EBS R12 to a java application.I have planned to carry out this task using BPEL and IREP in EBS.But i am not sure how to carry out this integration.Please anyone let me know or suggest how to proceed with this task??
Also please let me know if there are any end to end tutorials available for the same.

you can create webservice proxy for the BPEL wsdl file and call it from java application
steps in jdev
1. Create Application and project
2. Right click on project --> New --> Business Tier --> Web Serivces --> Java Web service from wsdl
3. in the wizard
Step 1: -enter your wsdl document url
Step 2: select the service you want to call
other steps are self explanatory.
then finish.
4. Now you can import the generated class into your java application to call the web service.

SOLUTION: Implementing Operating Unit Org Security Without EBS Integration

Hi all,
Thank you for taking the time to review this post.
Environment
Oracle BI Applications 7.9.6 (Financial & Project Analytics)
Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10
Question
I have implemented BI Applications and am using LDAP Authentication (OID/MSAD) to authenticate the BI Apps users. This is authenticating successfully. I also require to implement GROUP authorisation and OU_ORG security, however as I am not implementing the documented EBS integration (as per Metalink Note ID 555254.1) I am looking at a custom solution.
To achieve this I have created a custom database table in the BAW that contains the USER, GROUP and OU_ORG information. Then I have created separate Initialization Blocks for the GROUP and OU_ORG security that are being triggered after the LDAP Authentication. These SQL queries are based on returning data to a row-wise initialization Variable. I am aligning the GROUP values to the OOTB Presentation Groups and am able to get that Initialization Block to work as anticipated - the User only has the privileges to see Dashboard and Application links as I have configured in the Web Catalog.
However, they can see all data across all orgs. The OU_ORG security is returning the correct org_ids into the row-wise variable, but I appear to be missing how OBIEE utilises this for data security.
If you are able to assist with a possible solution, that would be greatly appreciated. Also, if it relates to a change at the Dashboard, Answers or RPD level, if you were able to include where specifically in these components that would also be very beneficial.
Many thanks,
Gary.

Here is another approach with ‘external database authentication’ where the EBS database provides the user information.
1. Create a table with the mapping of the EBS responsibilities and OBI Apps Groups
Ex: Create a new table “xx_resp_group_mapping” which contains the mapping between the EBS responsibility and OBI Apps groups.
Essentially, a one-time mapping of the BI apps groups needs to be done with the EBS groups so that the corresponding default access of these BI Apps groups can be passed on to the custom groups
2. Modify the authentication initialization block to validate the user against EBS
3. Modify the authorization initialization block to fetch the respective OBI Apps groups using the EBS user and the mapping table created in point 1
4. Enable the standard OU based security initialization block.
5. Add all the OBI Apps groups under the Operating Unity Security Group
6. Modify the permissions in the Operating Unity Security Group to put a filter on the Sales Org OU. Other filters on fact tables are not modified.
7. By default OBI Apps applies data level filters on fact tables. If dimension tables need explicit data level security it would need customization.
8. Any users who are not in EBS but need exclusive access only to BI Apps data can be granted exclusive access by adding those users directly in the OBI repository. They would directly be validated against the OBI server.
However, this approach is not suitable if the number of users are high in numbers.

OBIA 7.9.5 EBS Integration Not Logged On nQSError 43001 Authentication Fail

Hi,
I'm attempting to get Oracle Business Intelligence Applications 7.9.5 / OBIEE 10.1.3.3.2 integrated into the eBusiness Suite 11.5.10.2 per Metalink Note 552735.1. At the moment not an action link, just menu option to SA Administrator.
I've run into and worked around a number of problems with the Initialization block variables setup in OracleBIAnalyticsApps.rpd and now no longer get errors in the NQServer.log after disabling Initialization Blocks for Siebel/Peoplesoft and disabling 2 EBS specific Init blocks that were erroring; 'Inventory Organizations' and 'Ledgers' I'll fix those later.
However, now I get an error in the sawlog0.log file as follows:

Can anyone point me in the right direction here?

The strange thing is both Gareth and I have configured OBIA/OBIEE on a Linux server and local authentication works fine. Once we enable external EBS authentication, we get the error listed above.
Does anyone who has done the OBIA EBS integration with OBIEE running on Linux have an example of the odbc.ini file. It appears that even though we have reconfigured OracleBIAnalyticsApps.rpd to use OCI everywhere, that there is still some hard coded ODBC references for external authentication.
We are configuring instanceconfig.xml as directed:
Integrating Oracle Business Intelligence Applications with Oracle E-Business Suite
https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=552735.1
Configuring InstanceConfig.xml for External Authentication
1. Modify the instanceconfig.xml file for the Oracle BI Presentation Services as shown below:

</ParamList>
</ExternalLogon>
</Auth>

2. The nameInSource for the cookie should be the same as the Oracle E-Business Suite application database SID name. To verify the name of the cookie, using Firefox, check the name of the cookie created under the us.oracle.com domain (or the domain where your Oracle E-Business Suite Application server is running). Please note that the cookie name is case sensitive.

UCM - EBS integration

Hi,
We are integrating the UCM with EBS and all the setup and configuration has been completed for Managed Attachments solution. Now we are testing the functionality.
But, the ZOOM menu is not opening when we click on ZOOM icon in People Form of Human Resources Module. It is not even displaying any error.
Could anybody help me what else to be done to open Zoom menu
Thanks
Sravan

Hi,
This perticular issue of opening the zoom menu got resolved, by inserting the following row in AXF_CONFIGS table...
FORMID FORMFUNCTION SOLUTIONENDPOINT ENTITYNAME LOGENABLED DATABLOCKNAME
1 AXF_MANAGED_ATTACHMENTS http://et_gx990-as5.emiratestransport.com:16000/axf-ws/AxfSolutionMediatorService VIS 1 AXF_DEFAULT
The form function should be "AXF_MANAGED_ATTACHMENTS", otherwise the zoom menu would not be opened.
However, we are facing the other issue now, that the "Managed Attachments" screen is not opening when we click on zoom menu... If the AXF_SOAP_SECURITY is True I/PM is getting opened (I guess this is for "Imaging Solution") that too with some exception. And when the AXF_SOAP_SECURITY is FALSE then nothing is opening on clicking on zoom menu... I guess the "Managed Attachments" screen should be opened when we click on zoom menu.. but it is not opening...
Starting a new thread for this particular issue... If you could help me with this... please...

IPM EBS integration - zoom button is not opening window

Hi,
We have done the integration between EBS and IPM. It was working fine till the point we changed the IPM schema name.
Initially we did the integration with IPM schema DEV_IPM and done all the changes it was working fine.
For doing the UAT we created the schema UAT_IPM and done the new domain setup with IPM pointing to UAT_IPM. In standalone IPM is working fine. However since this point we are not able open the IPM window from Zoom button.
What are the changes do we need to do in AXF tables after this? i am sure there should be some setting with AXF_properties table only. but not able to figure out WHAT ?????
Please help.

Vikrant Korde

Hi,
i did make changes to connection pool but those changes are inevitable. I pointed those connection pools to the new EBS database.
@DPKA : i did make changes to instanceconfig. As a part of OBIEE integration with EBS, i changed instanceconfig.xml and started the services. I didn't bring down the services while making the changes. Did that have any impact on services.

EBS Integration Approach - API call or Interface Tables

Hi,
I'm very new to EBS, but am looking from a data-centric perspective on which approach would be best suited for updating Service Contracts.
We have at any one time a peak of 5000 records that would need to be matched against an IB identifier and then if that is matched correctly, proceed to update EBS.
So my question is, given the medium level of volume and fact we're not doing "bulk loading" which would be the better approach? Seems to me the API call to extend the Service Contract would be best.
Thanks for taking a look!

ADF EBS Integration - How to open the ADF page in new tab or window

Hi,
We are building ADF custom applications and want to integrate them with EBS R12 (12.1.3) through Responsibilities and Menus.
We have achieved session sharing and launching the Custom ADF app from EBS menu. The problem is, the Custom ADF page opens in the same page.
Is there anyway to open the ADF application in new tab or window while launching from EBS Menu ?
Highly appreciate your help on this.
Thanks,

Does EBS Integration Repository has API capability or Export facility?

Now looking into the Integration repository in V12 from the perspective of application integration. Is is possible to interrogate the repository from an outside program using APIs? Or is the repository only meant to to be a browser within the Oracle Apps environment? It would be very useful to have the API capability so that the discovery, import and mapping activities to the V12 integration objects (interface tables, stored procedures, concurrent program,..) can be performed from an integration program.
If the repository is only a browser and does not expose a queryable API, is there an export facility so that could be exported a whole set of interface metadata and import that into an external integration application?

Hi Srini,
Thanks for your attention to my question.
As we know, Oracle Integration Repository provides a complete catalog of Oracle E-Business Suite's business service interfaces. One of our applications needs to integrate with Oracle E-Business Suite. That means we need to get all the business service interfaces through IRep. Is there are APIs can be called from integration applications, or IRep metadata can be exported, we can easily implement integration with Oracle E-Business Suite.
Hopefully you can give me some suggestions or information. Thanks.

BI Apps 7.9.6 authentication method with EBS integration

Hi all,
since the default BI Apps documentation (meaning Security Guide, which deals mainly with Init Block setup for different security groups for EBS implementation) is not very clear about it, I just would like to assure - the only way, how to integrate BI Apps OBIEE environment with EBS int term of security (authentication/authorization) is via the method, described in Oracle® Fusion Intelligence For E-Business Suite - meaning through setup BI Pres Service to get cookie value from EBS session and populate NQ_SESSION.ICX_SESSION_COOKIE whic is then used in OBIEE Init Blocks to setup the context of EBS user and based on that context , initialize different session variables (even row-wise - for populating variables used in security filters - e.g. LEDGER) for logged EBS/OBIEE user , is that right ? There isn't any other method, how to authenticate EBS user in OBIEE - like using the similar way for BI Apps implementation with Siebel CRM (authenticate user via executing Init Block, assigned with Connection Pool, in which :USER,:PASSWORD variables are used to authenicate user againts Siebel OLTP db) ?
Just to want to assure, that this is the only way, how to integrate BI Apps OBIEE environment into EBS from security point of view.
Thanks very much in advance for your answers/opinion.
Michal Zima

I'm not using EBS R12.1.3 but I can give a suggestion, if possible try it once.
Using current configuration (Informatica and DAC) run a data load sourcing from EBS R12.1.3.
Let me know if you try this :)

Endeca-EBS integration( EAM module)

Hi,
We are trying to integrate EBS with Endeca. After following all the steps in the document ID:1497685.1 , we tried to login through EBS url. The reports came up for EAM module. But when we try to drill down on the hyperlink for a specific work-order in the work orders table it is redirecting to home page after asking the user to enter EBS credentials again! Also when we try to drill down based on specific Asset number, we are asked to provide EBS user credentials before the details of specific asset number shows up. Ideally speaking it should not ask the user to enter the login credentials for the second time. Could someone suggest a solution for this.
Thanks,
Anusha

Anusha,
This does sound like a security setup issue, which is why I started with the custom EBSMDEXSecurityManager. However, there are many other places to look. It sounds as if you're suggesting that you can see the EAM-Endeca pages just fine, but when you click on a link within an Endeca results table, instead of going to the WO detail page, it is redirecting you elsewhere. If you have admin Endeca privileges can you go to the "preferences" of the results table and see what the target page URL is for the WO link? Once we've identified the target page (and I believe some EBS Endeca Apps target an intermediate page for security verification purposes), can you ensure your EBS user has proper permissions to view that page? If memory serves, the EBS user might need to be associated to certain security "functions".
Thanks,
Dan

EBS Integration HTTP 404 error

I have a function defined in EBS to call Apex. When I click on function in Menu in Oracle it gives me error The webpage cannot be found HTTP 404 error. I close down this window and after couple of clicks the Apex form opens up. It is very frustrating for users to click atlest 2-3 times before they get into Apex.
