How to fit Apps DBI reports in existing Disco setup

Hi,
My Apps DBA has come up with a question regarding DBI reports in Apps.
They are using EBS 11i and they are required to setup DBI reports, that he says are discoverer reports. If he is right, then he needs to know if he can use the exiting setup of Discoverer that I have already done for reports runnning on databse EUL.
My discoverer 10g setup is a full blown installation linked to AS10g using SSO. Is it possible that he just stores Apps UIDs in OID, and creates an Apps EUL on my discoverer setup itself?
Since I am unaware or DBI so other questions are: what exactly is the DBI , does it have its own discoverer installation or can use any existing one? and is it at the same version i.e. 10g?
Any clues will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Goga

I'd check if he really is referring to DBI - daily business intelligence. DBI essentially is a full set up for different Oracle Apps 'suites' (ie: financials) that includes lots of good stuff such as materialized views, Discoverer views, reports, etc.
I'm wondering if he's thinking of the BIS views instead. These are a set of BIS - business intelligence system? / suite? that are generated from within Oracle Apps creating 'fully generated' views in the Apps schema that can be used for many Discoverer reports. However there's a procedure that has to be followed (including importing a current .eex file for your Oracle Apps version).
If he means that, then yes you can have BIS definitions in the EUL alongside the work you've already done.
But check with the DBA again on what's he actually trying to accomplish.

What does the Mac App store mean for existing users of Aperture?

I was wondering how the Mac App store will affect existing users of the software. I have purchased Aperture and upgrades since its launch but because I've not purchased through the App store, how will I gain access to future upgrades?
When I go to the Aperture app in the store it shows as being installed but as I've not purchased it through the store, will I be eligible for future upgrades or will Apple expect me to purchase again?

There is no way Apple can update Aperture 3 without offering that update to every user, regardless of where the app was purchased. So, expect that Aperture 3.1.2 or whatever will be available to you in some fashion.
When the next paid Upgrade (to Aperture 4?) comes along, then we'll have to see what arrangements the offer.

How I can apply more than one DBI reports at a time?

I have many DBI reports (and maybe dashboards in future) in one database and I want to transfer them to second database. Of course I can export every report to individual zip file and than import this file to second database. But how I can import all my reports at a time? I tried to simply merge files in archives. But EBS imported only one report from merged zip file. Then I downloaded some patches (for example, E-Business Intelligence Family Pack 11i.BIS_PF.F) and explored their structure. I copied xml files with report description (RPerPersonsLayoutsource.xml and RPerPersonsDocsource.xml) from zip archive to <patch directory>\bis\mds, set versions in file-version attribute to 120.6 and wrote driver file. Than I tried to apply this patch. There was no errors (as I think) but report didn't appear in database.
So, can I do something to transfer many DBI reports at a time?
P.S. Driver file text:

Not real sure what your asking but if you want to view two apps side by side, make sure they're not in full screen mode and drag the edge of a window to resize. If you want to browser windows, On the menubar Safari > File > New Window. Or the shortcut, CMD N
Then resize to view both.

Hi,
can you please post this question to one of the Apps forums if your main concern is to deploy applications in the context of Oracle Apps?
It seems that you don't have a problem in creating the EAR file in JDev.

You can find the list of seeded views in eTRM website -- http://etrm.oracle.com/pls/etrm
Are there seeded tables/views of DBI dimension objects in Oracle EBS?

TS1702 I just upgraded a full version of "ISO Fits" app from App Store 2 days ago but the upgrade wasn't successful. I reported the problem to the developer but had not received any reply. What should I do?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

How to add Reports to existing Role (Urgent).

Hi Experts,
I am working in BI7.0 and there are no workbooks in our project.
There is a Role with two reports. The Role has some users assigned to it.
One of the Users wants to access two additional reports.
How should I add those extra two reports to this Role on BW side? Do I have to do something like Publish to Role on the Query side in BEx Analyzer (Query Design Mode)...???
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
Chandu.

One of the Users wants to access two additional reports?
if this two reports are new workbooks, then run the query and save the workbooks directly in the role. if you dont have access to this role then save it in developer role and ask security team to add them in the user role.
if this report /workbooks exist in the system and you dont have access to this roles, then you need to ask secuirty team directly to add them in the user role. ( give them the role in which this workbooks exist and the target role where he need to add , and give them the transport number ) they will add the role and workbooks in the transpot and give it to you.
Thanks

Thanks

You can sync it to your phone using iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12311
or you can just tap "App Store" on your iPhone, then "Updates" at the lower left of the screen, then "Purchased" and then the cloud download symbol to the right of the app.

How to prevent Nike Fitness App from crashing on Nano?

I have a Nano iPod, 7th generation, OS version 1.0.3 PC. If I attempt to use the Nike Fitness App and follow the following procedure:
Run -> Time -> Custom -> <Choose a time non-divisible by 5, such as 21, 32, or 34> -> ... -> Start
Near the end of the duration (usually a minute or two) the application will just crash. Music will end and the app will not record any of the activity on that particular cycle. If a time is entered that is a multiple of 5 it seems the application works without issue. If the 'Basic' option is chosen instead of 'Time' the app works fine as well.
I have contacted Nike and they requested I refresh to the factory setting (which I did) and the issue was not resolved. Has anyone else observed this behavior and/or been able to resolve it? If not, is there a way to report this bug to Apple/Nike for verification?

Hi maltbys,
If you are having issues using the Fitness function on a new iPod nano, you may find the Fitness chapter of the following manual helpful (Chapter 7, pg. 34):
iPod nano User Guide (7th Gen)

Is there a good "Sticky note app that ACTUALLY put a Sticky Note on my iPad ( over my existing wallpaper images) on either the Home or Lock screens like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?

I have an iPad 3.
I tried two, One was a worthless piece of junk I wasted $2.99 on and the other is pretty good ($1.99) except is does not do a function I would like to use as advertised ( which is to create a sticking note that works like an app by creating an icon sized version of the original created sticky note, then clicking on an app icon size version of the originally created sticky note that you can tap on like an app and a large sticky note is supposed to appear. This does NOT work with an iPad.
Does anyone use a Stickies app for IOS that works exactly like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?
What good is a Stickies note app on iOS when it cannot put actual virtual stickies notes over the main IOS screens and wallpapers and remain there until they are no longer needed?
Does any one use a good stickies app on iPad? NOT iPhone or iPod Touch.

It really cannot be done in iOS due to the sandboxed security model of the operating system. No app can modify the "desktop" like that - they can only display their own "virtual" desktop when actually actively in use. so any stickie note app is the same as any simple note app - it must be open and active to display content. It cannot modify any screen but it's own when active.

Weather App that reports to your notification center at a specified time?

Here's the scenario:
I work outdoors and live in the Midwest so the weather can and often does vary A LOT from day to day.
I plug my iPad in for the night and go to sleep.
When I wake up, I hit the home button to see my notification center. Contained there is the report from this weather app, telling me the basic information immediately: Current temperature, the day's high/low, any preciptiation chance.
Now here's the added bonus that I really want:
Everyone knows the temperature changes drastically from night to day, so a temperature reading would need to be taken near to the time that you wake up. What if you could set this app to display the information at a certain time? It's a concept just like an alarm where an action is triggered at a specified time, in this case, weather readings. Say I'm getting up at 6am. I'd set the app to report at 5:55am or something like that.
OR the much simpler apprach would just be to add a weather widget of some sort to the lock screen. If that's an option, I'd gladly go for that as well.
So does anything like this exist?
Thanks to all!
[EDIT]
I found the solution to my question. I had a feeling it was something really easy that I was just missing. Thanks! Feel free to delete this thread. I would but I'm not sure how or if I even can.

You are correct that things would be easier if it was automatic. However, you will generally find that it is a program with a built-in scheduler, such as a backup program or a video recording program, that left some code behind even if the program was trashed or removed from the system.
As far as the PDP11, I don't think I could afford the electricity to run one even if I had one. The PDP11 is the first computer I was exposed to in medical imaging. I list it because every once in a while it draws out the truth from folks like yourself when they admit to knowing what one is.
I think the first disk drives that thing used were housed in recycled washing machines using the old motors to drive the spindles.

Creating a DBI Report with a Generated Data Source

Hi all,
I am on a customer site helping them to implement DBI.
We're using DBI Designer to create some Custom Reports.
We're interested in using Generated Data Sources in order to simplify handling of the complex Time Hierarchies implemented as standard within DBI (eg Rolling 30 days, Compare To Periods etc).
I've read the Metalink Note on how this should be achieved.
(Note 363529.1)
Unfortunately, we seem to be in a Catch 22 situation.
The note states that we need to have BSC v5.3 (or later !) installed.
The latest patch version of OBSC we can find is 5100729 (BSC.I.delta.12).
Our belief is that BSC.I is version 5.2 (incidentally, why do we have two naming/numbering "conventions" ?)
So two questions :
can we use generated data sources now, or do we have to wait for BSC 5.3 ?
when will BSC 5.3 be generally available ? (our customer uses HP/UX)
thanks for any input
Mike

Hi All,
I am a newbie to DBI. Currently going through the documents DBI for Finanicials
and Payable.
We have to develope custom reports for Payables and Financials intelligence based on Oracle Reports . I would like to know if its possible or not because I read a thread on Forum ("How do you make a copy of an existing DBI report? ") in which it mentions that it is not possible to edit a standard report.
And if it is possible how to go for that ?
Thanks in advance,
Anant.
