Audit log of customized table.

Dear experts,
I need to trace log of some tables.
In spro transacction there is one customize transacction KEDE. This transacction is used to define derivation rules and generates entries with tables names. This records are generated in TKEDRS table. I do not need to audit this table. I need to audit some the tables recorded in field table of table TKEDRS.
K9XXXYYYNNNN.
XXX- ID SYSTEM
YYY- ID CLIENT
NNNN-Number
This custom point generates tables in dictionary. I need to trace this tables for audit log of changes. One solucion is configure SCU3 and tables in SE11.
This table do not have modification digalog. (cdhdr, cdpos, ... ) tables.
Are there other solution?
Thanks and regards.

User Audit Trail for a custom table.

Hello all. I need to know the correct and accurate way to user audit for a custom table. To elaborate further, I have a table catering to sanctioned strength of employees in a particular Cost Center, the entries have been deleted all together by someone, and I need to know the way to recover the data and to identify the user in question. Note, I have used STAT and have foundno results, and standard user audit trail are turned off.
Any help or push in the right direction would be highly appreciated.
P.S: any additional technical details on the table structure can be provided for further analysis if needed.

Try to add your custom table and table fields in the below views
V_T585A
V_T585B
V_T585C
After doing this your custom table changes gets stored in the pcl4 document . If the custom table is master data table then from the standard Audit trail report you can see the logged changes in custom table also by providing the custom infotype number.
if its is custom customizing table , need to explore

How to enable the DFF in OAF page(where Dff is based on the custom table).

Hi Experts!!
I am in the process of enabling the dff in OAF page. I am not able to enable the dff if am using the Custom table.
Ex:
Assume that my DFF XX_DFF is using the custom table XX_TABLE of att1,att2..
I am able to enable the dff in OAF page but not able to make those values entered to get stored in the custom table.
I need helping hands to help me out to get the entered dff values stored in my custom table.
Kindly provide me the steps so that I can follow up..
Best wishes,

I need to store the captured values of Dff(which was enabled in the seeded page based on the custom table XX_Table) and the same needs to be stored into the custom table xx_Table.
Basically the entered values for the DFF enabled should have to be get stored in the XX_TABLE(Custom TAble).As per my understands in Standard page u want create some extra fields and those should be save in custom table...is it ...
For that u r going create stack layout region in standard page via personalization and extend with custom region.
IF im geting u correctly u need to write code in co and am.
---U had already created the components eo vo AM co...
---For the custom region in Jdev do the mapping of viewInstacne and view attribute properties for the fields.

hrow=vo.createRow();

RE: Customized Auditing of Data base Tables

Dear experts
I really need your help.
We have a requirement to do auditing on customized Data Base tables. I know there is a tick in the table to keep a log and you can then use SCU3 to check it. But this uses alot of resources that we can not afford. We need to design our own customized table to update any data changes to any of our customized tables.
Now we need this table to show us the user. the date and time, the old value of the field, the new value of the field, the field name, and the table name. However there will also be a report to check who changed, edited added or deleted what entries on any of the customized tables. So my problem is that when updating my customized table that holds the data. The logical flow of data does not make sense. Please see example below;
Z_SELLING_PRICE Table (the client does not want to use standard pricing that is why we use customized tables)
MANDT         MATNR        PRICE         VALID_TO       VALID_FROM          CURRRENCY
100               TYRES         200             20100201        20100228               ZAR   - (user changes price to 100)
100               TYPES         250             20100301        20100331               ZAR   - (user changes valid_to to 20100302)
100               RIMS            150             20100301        20100331               ZAR
Z_AUDIT Table
MANDT       TABLE                      FIELD           OLDVALUE              NEWVALUE          CHANGE_TYPE   USER       DATE         TIME
100             Z_SELLING_PRICE   PRICE           200                           100                       Modified               PETER     20100202   121216
100             Z_SELLING_PRICE   VALID_TO   20100301                  20100302            Modified               JANE       20100301   154553
My problem here is how will my report know that the price (for example) that was changed wat the price changed on Types as suppose to rims?
Maby my logic is too complicated. And if i save all the fields regardless if they were changed so that my report of this table (Z_AUDIT) can make logical sense. how will i know what the logical flow of field names is to be combined to make up the record that was changed.
Please help.
Kind regards

Hey Thomas
Thanks for your quick response. Yes the resourses (in my opinion would probably be the same) but unfortunatly we have a couple of basis consultants that convinced the business other wise. I get the idee that they are carefull of the fact that if they open the system to this function and someone adds a log to a standard table that the system might not have suffiecient memory.
So business decided that they wil not take this "risk" and asked the ABAP team to design our own updates.
Another option that was presented was to add a USER DATE and TIME Field to every Customized table that needs to have logging on. But in some cases we cannot allow for duplicate keys and if i make these fields keys the logic behind that will be bypassed as the same user can then enter a "duplicate key" the next day because it is not seen as a duplicate entry in the DB because the date would then differ.
So by adding a section to the user exit behind SM30 and calling the same function module (that has to stil be written) we will be able to do this "the ABAP" way. I was just wondering if there is (hopefully) someone that had a similiar situation so that we can maby duplicate the logic.??
Kind regards

Requirement to enable auditing on every form in Oracle apps 11i,Dynamically

Hello All,
I have following requirement Oracle apps 11i forms6i:
Client want to audit the changes in data which user does on the oracle form and save old values and new values in DB table.
Currently they do have this system working but, only for some forms.
Now they want generic. Means, user will navigate to any form in Oracle apps. there he will get Menu option in menu "Enable this form for auditing". After pressing this menu option, another form will come where he will be able to see all fields on the form with check box in front of each field.
Here user will select those fields which he want to enable for auditing.
Thereafter all changes which user do on the form, those old and new values will get store in one custom table.
Since information about fields is not stored in database, how can I make it generic. So that user will navigate to any form in oracle apps and will be able to enable it for auditing?
can we do this by using any interface with Java with oracle form?
Let me know, if my requirement is not clear to you.
Regards,
Parag

Parag,
This is the General Forms discussion forum. Please post your question in the [EBS General Discussion|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=475] forum. Having worked with EBS several years ago, I confident that Oracle already has an Auditing feature built into their system, I just don't recall how it is implemented or if it would work for your situation where the customer wants to turn it on and off on the fly. To be honest, I'm not sure it is a good design to allow the user to enable/disable auditing as this just seems to violate the "Auditing Paradigm." In any case, someone in the EBS Forum would be better able to answer your question.

How to Track the changes made to the custom table field value

I want to track the changes made to the custom table field value in table maintenance generator.please help me it is very urgent
Thanks & Regards,
Kranti

Hi Satya,
These are the steps you've to do.
1. Enable the change document flag in the data element level for the fields of the tables you want to monitor.
2. Go to transaction SCDO. Create a new change object, and add your table to this object. After generation, you'll get a function module.
3. Call this function module in the table maintainence generator screen, after the data is saved to the database table. This function module automaticallly writes the changes, with the old and new values, and the fields that were changed to the tables CDHDR and CDPOS.
4. You can keep track of the changes made to the table by monitoring these tables.

Small issue with custom table cell editor and unwanted table row selection

I'm using a custom table cell editor to display a JTree. Thing i notice is that when i select a value in the tree pop-up, the pop-up closes (as it should) but then every table row, from the editing row to the row behind the pop-up when i selected the value becomes highlighted. I'm thinking this is a focus issue, but it thought i took care of that. To clairfy, look at this: Before . Notice how the "Straightening" tree item is roughly above the "Stock Thickness" table row? When i select Straightening, this is what happens to my table: After .

As I said, you have to have empty context elements before additional rows will be open for input.
For instance if you want to start with 5 rows available for input do the following to your internal table that you will bind:
data itab type standard table of sflight.
do 5 times.
append initial line to itab.
enddo.
context_node->bind_table( itab ).
The other option if you need n number of rows is to add a button to the table toolbar for adding more rows. When this button is pressed, you add a new context element to the node - thereby creating a new empty row in the table.

JTable: Custom Table Model (pII)

As was explained in pI, I'm creating a custom table model to overcome a few pitfalls I came across using the DefaultTableModel class, such as aligning cells, and getting certain columns to return only numeric type data. However, I've come upon a few roadblocks myself.
How do I create each of the following methods:
insertRow(int ow, int column)
remove row(int row)
addRow(Object[] rowData)Assuming that I decide to allow the user to add a column to the table, how would I create the methodaddColumn(Object columnName, Object[] columnData)And also, as I'm creating a custom table model, would I need to replicate DefaultTableModel's methods that inform the listeners that a change has been made to the table?
Thanks!

Thanks!
I just got this response. Anyways, I found another solution that was, interestingly, from one of your threads written in 2005.
This is what I did:
// Letting the JTable know what each column stores and should return by
   // overloading the getColumnClass() method
   public Class getColumnClass(int column)
      if(recordsTable.getColumnName(column) == "Ranking")
        return Integer.class;
     /* Why do I keep ketting an IllegalArgumentException here? *
       * It keeps saying it cannot format given object as a Number */
      else if(recordsTable.getColumnName(column) == "Price (�) ")
        return Float.class;
     else
       return getValueAt(0, column).getClass();
   }However, another problem has arisen.
The if method for the int column (Ranking column) works okay, and is even right-aligned. The else if arguments for the Price (�) column however is returning an IllegalArgumentException. This I just cannot figure out.
Here's the code:package Practice;

     Menu recordM; // ...

                 frame.dispose();

(Remember, i don't have ready acess to the Internet, so I could not use my machine, nor the facilities that had the JVM - unavailable to me at the time).

Source of data for custom tables in Oracle Apps

Hi,
Is there any way to find the source of data for the Custom tables. The source can be either any function, procedure, package or a trigger or any other process. The reason why I need to know about it is because we have some custom tables that are used by some custom Reports. Sometimes those reports comes out blank because the data in these custom tables is blank. So I need to know which processes are populating data in these custom tables. Any help would be really appreciated !!
Thanks,
KM

You may enable AutditTrail (search the forum for links/docs) and see if this would help.

Document attachment to custom tables / records

Good morning,
do you know if it is possible to attach external documents to custom tables / records, in the same way as it is possible for standard transactions (Services for Object)?
If yes, can you please advise me on some reference documetns about how to customize this functionality?
Thanks in advance
AS

Hi ,
Displaying attachments is not available in the Interaction record view.You need custom development to enable the attachemnts there.
usually the process would be to create a followup activity from the interaction record and attch documents there.
Thanks,

Regarding Multi Language Support in Oracle Custom Table

Hi All,
I have a requirement that i have to create Custom table to catch the data.
The custom table should support multi language.
Ex. PER_OBJECTIVES (seeded table) Suppose i select the language as Arabic then table should able to insert Arabic data. If English is selected English data should insert.
How i need to design the data base table(similar to PER_OBJECTIVES). What are the mandatory column to support multi language.
Thanks,
UMA.

Uma,
You will need at least two custom tables. The typical way that Oracle supports MLS/NLS is to have two tables - the first to hold an id or code of the object and the second (table name is typically suffixed with TL) which holds the descriptive translations of the object in the needed languages. A good example to follow would be to look at FNDRESPONSIBILITY and FND_RESPONSIBILITY_TL tables. The first table stores the responsibility short_name or code and the second table stores the actual description of the responsibility in the various languages that are enabled in your instance. The tables are joined using the responsibility id or code. At run time, the appropriate description of the object is retrieved from the TL table based on the users session language. If an entry is not found, then the US translation is substituted. ML Doc 333785.1 describes how all of this is achieved.
Since your tables are custom tables, you will have to provide your own translations for your objects.

Lock object problem on custom table

Hi all.
I am having a bit of an issue with a lock object on a home made table. We're using the UWL and a custom IView to display an extended invoice. No problem releasing the workitem lock, just the table entry lock.
I can see the lock in SM12. Tried dequeue/dequeue all RFCs from backend, no luck.
The lock is set from a custom RFC. This RFC succesfully releases the lock when used in SAPGUI, and we have an RFC enabled wrapper around it. However, once used in the portal, the locks aren't released. My suspicion is that it has to do with sessions and I can't see a way to control that since dynpro uses a connection pool IIRC.
Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this?

Small correction if you are not aware. Do not create your custom tables in APPS schema? Custom tables are supposed to created in custom schema such as XXPO and a synonym created for the table in APPS schema.
When creating an EO, you do not need to provide the schema name. You would need to enter only the table name.
Hope this helps.

Setting up event Alert on custom table

I appologize for placing my question in probably the wrong forum, but I know you guys are the sharpest and I'm spent on this problem.
Overview: I have a form that runs a report to print out some of the form's data. If the user wants to email that same data, after the print job is completed, the form updates a table with the output file name created by running the report. Here's where my problem comes in... I'm trying to create an event driven alert, but I get the below error when I go to save:
Event Table : REPORT_HDRS
ORACLE ID : APPS
The listed ORACLE ID is missing the event table or does not have the correct privileges to Application Object Library or Oracle Alert objects.
Please verify that the event table exists, or re-register the ORACLE ID with Application Object Library as necessary. Then re-enable (or disable)
the event alert as desired.
If the ORACLE ID is for a shared installation of an application, it may be normal for the event table to not be present.
Any ideas as to what I'm missing would be greatly appreciated.
