FND Attachment Retrival for processing

Hi All
We have a requirement to
1. Upload a file attachment (.csv) to project entity . For this we are using standard Attachment feature to upload the data in PA.
2. Retrive this file attachment and process the .csv for some data entry. For this we are looking to :
Question)
How do we get the file uploaded ? What is the API or query to get the file in CLOB format based on following query
SELECT * FROM FND_ATTACHED_DOCUMENTS WHERE
1=1
AND PK1_VALUE = 33013 ---- This is project_id
AND entity_name = 'PA_PROJECTS';
Will it be possible to retrive the object as .csv and process it in PL/SQL?
Thanks
Rahul

Will it be possible to retrive the object as .csv and process it in PL/SQL?You can download/upload the attachment file but I believe you cannot process the file in PL/SQL.
Please elaborate more on what you are trying to do.
Thanks,
Hussein

Replacing Oracle EBS FND Attachment functionality with UCM

I am new to Oracle UCM and wondering about Replacing Oracle EBS FND Attachment functionality (Paper Clip in EBS forms) with UCM. Can we achieve this by simply defining the Attachment Repository using System Administrator Responsibility in EBS? Can you share some documentation on this?
If we have to customize the forms to re-direct the document repository from FND to UCM, please share the steps to do so.

Didn't see the link in your post. may have been stripped.
if you want to use the ebs native attachment lists, what we've done is used a custom bpel composite to load items into the appropriate entity in the fnd_documents and all of those other related ebs tables. this takes webcenter out of it for the most part. you could also load links, similar to the imaging solution's approach. this way, again, uses the ebs attachments, but stores the image in IPM (in the imaging case, that is). there is a link loaded into the fnd tables.
if you want to leverage the ebs-side attachment lists, managed attachments may not be the approach you want to take. You may want to look into the imaging solution or creating a custom process.

Issues during Component Batch Determination for Process Orders

Hi,
I am encountering a strange issue during component batch determination of process order.
1. During creation of process order, when I execute batch determination, systems does determination based on strategies we have set and when I click on Copy it gives an error
"Log cannot be saved: Object/subobject not specified"
Message no. BL201
*Diagnosis
Log save cancelled because at least one log contains no object or subobject.
Object and subobject are needed to classify application logs because there are several log types. Only a few logs are managed in main memory at runtime, so this classification is not needed.
If the logs are to be saved in the database, object/subobject must be specified for later retrieval.
Procedure for System Administration
Object/sub object can be passed when a log is created (function module BAL_LOG_CREATE) and changed with BAL_LOG_CHANGE.
The possible values for object and sub object must be configured in transaction SLG0.*
If I save the order with CRTD status and come back again in change mode and do determination, It works fine.
Again when the order is in REL status and do the determination, It gives the same error.
This happens only for a specific plant, In other plants batch determination works in all scenarios.
I checked for all plant related Config for batch determination and coudn't find any discrepancies.
Please advise how to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance for your help

Aheesh

There Is no direct solution for your requirement just try this work around.
While defining the batch determination search strategy for process order in COB1, there is one column Quantity proposal where you can attach the Routines (This is written in ABAB code ) make use of this, define New Routines with ABAB help to fulfill your requirement.

NPD - no chance to attach files for no signature requestees

Hello,
Please see here below the following scenario:
ACTIVITY: RISK ASSESSMENT
ACTYVITY TYPE: DOCUMENT COLLABORATION IN PLACE EDITING
TEAM MEMBERS: they are not entered at activity template level but they are assigned at project level
OWNER in step 2: procurement, VAT Team
Signature request in step 2: procurement
No specific roles are assigned to these two users as they only need to edit activity steps where they are owners.
I create a project and this activity from activity template.
I move this activity forward STEP 2.
VAT Team logs in AGILE for Process.
He goes to RISK ASSESSMENT activity in step 2.
He clicks on EDIT Button.
it looks like he is only authorized to attach files as attachments.
He cannot enclose files with the in place editing functionality !!!!!
VAT TEAM is able to edit files with the in place functionality, but they need to be previously added into the system by procurement !
If I set VAT TEAM as signature request as well as procurement, he is able to upload files to edit with that functionality !!
What am I missing?
It looks unacceptable actually.
An user could not be necessarily a signature requestee to upload files withthe in place editing...
Please kindly advise.
Thanks and regards
Daniele

Go ahead and submit an SR so support can review this scenario and determine whether there is a problem.

Tabale for Actual cost value for Process orders

Hi Friends
From which table can we retrive the actual values relates to process orderwise, like actual material consumption cost, activites cost, overhead cost and other costs.

Hi
You would find the actual for process orders in Table COEP with Object Number = OP*. Also Check if you would require COSS, COSP for Controlling Tables and to get the Object numbers you need to used AFPO with Order type of Process order PI01...

Error when running setup: Attach to native process

Hi,
I try to install the oracle iplanet webserver (version 7.0.13) on linux (centos 6.2, 64 bits).
I first installed the compat-libstdc++-33 packages.
After that I installed JRE, this version:
java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.6-b01, mixed mode)
To install the iplanet webserver I first extract the content of the downloaded file (Oracle-iPlanet-Web-Server-7.0.13-linux-x64).
Then I try to run setup with the command ./setup
The error I get is: attach to native process failed.
Any idea what is wrong?
Regards Stefan
Thanks for the help.

Stefan,
I am seeing the same error on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin (which is admittedly unsupported). This happened to me once before on an older version of Ubuntu, and as I recall, it was a missing library dependency, but I am not able to locate the fix I came up with at that time.
Interestingly, my existing ws7u12 installation runs fine, I just cannot upgrade to the latest update (15).
I have this software under support, but only on Solaris (I develop on Ubuntu, but deploy to my production Solaris server). In any case, as Ubuntu is not officially supported, opening an SR for this problem would be a waste of time.
I'll continue digging for my old solution and post here if I find it. If you've since discovered the solution, I'd love to hear it.
Thanks,
Bill

Read an Attachment attached within a process instance

Hi
I am using BPM 11.1.1.6, can someone tell me how do I read and parse an attachment attached within a process instance. Thank you.
Regards
Venkat

Thank Sudipto for the link.
Experts,
I used the API as suggested in the first link and managed to iterate through the attachments attached in a process instance but when i am trying to read the attachments using the getInputStream() its returning null, all the other properties of the taskattachment returns correct information. Is this a known bug?? The sample code snippet is as below:
List attach= task.getAttachment();
int i=0;
for (Object obj :attach){
i=i+1;
AttachmentType taskAttachment = (AttachmentType)obj;
System.out.println("Task Attachment " + i + " " + taskAttachment.getName());
System.out.println(taskAttachment.getMimeType());
System.out.println(taskAttachment.getSize());
InputStream inpStream= taskAttachment.getInputStream();
if (inpStream == null){
System.out.println("Stream is empty");
}

Planned cost for processing the component

Hi All,
How to see the planned cost for processing any component or finished product in SAP.
I don't want actual cost for processing the component.

Rare error message when trying to attach to a process

Hi,
I am using a script (launched in crontab every 5 minutes), which attaches to a process, and launch a JMX command, to check that it is running fine. Any issue will kill the process and restart it.
Every 7-10 days, I get the following error message :

I am running with Java6u13.
What should I do to continue the investigation ?
By the way, is it the correct forum for this issue ?
Thanks in advance

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.

Extensibility Pack 3.6 for Agile PLM for Process 6.1.1.1 is now available

Extensibility Pack 3.6 for Agile PLM for Process 6.1.1.1 is now on Oracle Software Delivery Cloud
We are pleased to announce the General Availability of Agile PLM for Process Extensibility Pack 3.6 as of October 30th, 2013.
Extensibility Pack 3.6 provides two new technical enablement features:
Email Extensibility
Customizing the content of workflow emails in GSM and SCRM without custom code is now easier with the addition of a new set of placeholder variables, conditional variables, and other capabilities. These variables are available by deploying a new set of plugins, which can be configured through the CustomPluginExtensions.xml file.
Some examples of the new functionality include:
Displaying new data in the emails, such as the workflow Comment, Cross Reference numbers, Category/Sub-category/Group, a trade specification’s GTIN, a material specification’s Ingredient Statement, etc.
Providing meaningful related specification information in Signature Document emails.
Conditionally displaying data, such as only including a material specification’s classification if it is an Approved status.
User Interface Extensibility
Clients wishing to customize specific User Interface behavior, such as marking certain fields as read only, or applying formatting to show required fields, will be able to do this using the User Interface Extensions feature. Clients can write simple Javascript code which then gets pulled into the desired user interface pages. The Javascript code can leverage useful new Javascript variables and functions that make it easier to perform user interface manipulation, as well as access specific data from the given item (e.g., the specification’s status, the user’s groups, etc).
Watch the introductory video on the User Collaboration site for a high level overview.
More information on these new features can be found in the Extensibility Guide, along with detailed technical documentation.

I am working on EBS 11.5.10 and database 9i. I want table link to find attachments for particular operation sequence number.
Navigation:
WORK IN PROCESS --> DISCRETE JOBS --> OPERATIONS --> ATTACHMENTS(IN MENU YOU CAN FIND).
In operations screen, for each operation sequence number, you can have attachement.In attachement, i want to pick the remarks column.
Table: OPERATIONS -- WIP_OPERATIONS
ATTACHEMENTS - FND_ATTACHED_DOCS_FORM_VL
REMARKS - fnd_documents_short_text
Link between FND_ATTACHED_DOCS_FORM_VL and fnd_documents_short_text is media_id. But i am not able to find the link between wip_operations and fnd_attached_docs_form_vl.
Could anybody help me how to get attachement data for a particular operation sequence number.
Thanks in advance.

The link is
entity_type = 'WIP_DISCRETE_OPERATIONS' and
pk1_value =wip_entity_id and
pk2_value = operation_seq_num and

Batch determination for process orders

Hi All,
My requirement is complete batch batch is proposed in process order batch determination even though the requirement is of less qty.
For example the required qty. for component XYZ is 20 units but the available batch is of 40 units. Now requirement is that no batch splitting should happen & complete batch of 40 units is determined.
This is required to do Material quantity calculation.

Checking Rule for Process Order

Hi Guys
I am using the standard checking rule for Process Order while releasing. This rule considers the quality blocked stock also as available stock and thus release the Process Order.
However the client does not want to include the quality block stock for process order. My question is:
1. If I create a checking rule which does not consider quality stock as available, and attach it to release of Process Order, will it make any change in MRP run?
2. Is there a means to show a warning message while release of process order to show the stock is in quality block state?
3. Is there any other means to alarm or warn the user before release of Process order about the material quality block state?
Appreciate you help / suggestion on this
Thanks in advance
Rahul

Hi,
Regards the stocks during MRP run, you can do it in tow areas
1. In OPPI, you can define whether Stockin transfer/blocked/restricted stocks can be taken into account for MRP run.
2. You can exclude storage locations in MRP run and assign the MRP storage location indicator as 1 in MRP 4 view.
Apart from this the MRP will consider all stocks and requirements.
If you don't want to consider QI stock (for ex) then you can convert them as blocked stocks or you can move to a storage location which is not assigned to the MRP.
Thanks,
JK

GR Cost not updating as Target Cost for process orders

Dear SAPians,
We are facing an issue in Target Vs Actual cost reporting for process orders. We are creating a process order after cost estimate of that material and doing the confirmations for activity cost. After that, GR has been done for the finished goods of that process order. That GR entry is updating the Actuals values but not updating the Target cost. When I am checking the standard report KKBC_ORD, I am getting the following figures.
Cost Elemnt Text     |     Target Cost     |     Actual Cost     |     Target Vs Act
Inventory Chnge FG     |     0     |     1,472,205.60-     |     1,472,205.60-
Packing Matrl Cons.     |     1,148,142.37     |     1,252,752.68     |     104,610.31
Raw Material Cons.     |     60,463.91     |     50,688.29     |     224.38
Semi-Fin Matrl Cns.     |     181,934.68     |     367,959.56     |     186,024.88
Labour Cost Activity     |     39,735.36     |     39,862.80     |     127.44
Machine Cst Activty     |     41,611.75     |     43,153.01     |     1,541.26
That 'Inventory Change FG' entry is showing the GR posting updating actuals and not target cost. This is causing huge difference in target vs actual cost that will affect the profit and loss figures ultimately.
What am I missing here? What should I do to update the GR amount in Target cost as well.
Shirazi

Dear,
Target Cost on Production Order or Process Order is shown only when Variance is Calculated.
So please calculate the Variance, system will show the Total Target Cost.
