okk..
But i mean , we create Executable with Method type SQL Loader, to register in Oracle APPS.
SO like what would be Executable Method for External Table?
or can we call the External table in Procedure?
ThanxI don't know oracle APPS (and this isn't the APPS forum), but an external table is just like another table. It's created once and then used by queries to fetch data. You would reference it in your applications just the same as you would any other table.

How to register custom form into Oracle Applications

I created a custom form based on a custome table, then I registered in Oracle applications, but it is not opening properly in Oracle applications. It is running fine outside of Oracle Applications. Are there any standard packages which I need to attach while creating this custom form.
Please help.

1. Copy your form (test.fmb) into $AU_TOP/forms/US
2. Compile with f60gen
3. Copy the test.fmx file to $PRODUCT_TOP/forms/US
4. Login to Oracle Applications with sysadmin user
5. Select Application Developer responsibility
6. Navigate to Application - Form -
7. Enter the values for following parameter
Form = test
Application = You can select from LOV
User Form Name = Enter as you like
Description = Enter if any
8. Navigate to Application - Function
9. Enter the values in the function form
in Description TAB - Enter the value for Function, User Function Name, Description
in Properties TAB - Type = FORM
Maint.Mode Support = None
Context Dependence = Responsibility
in Form TAB - Form = Select your form name that already registered (above one)
Application = Will display
Parameters = STARTUP_MODE= TEST
10. Now you can attach the form in Menu then Responsibility
Revert back if you have any query.

How to register custom workflow in oracle apps ?

Hello
I am new to workflow. I have customized an oracle standard workflow and now i want to register this custom one. Please help how to register the custom workflow. What steps need to achieve this.
Thanks

Hi,
You may or may not need to "register" the workflow - it depends on the changes that you made and which Item Type you modified. Some applications are essentially hard-coded to use a specific item type and process, some hard-coded to use an item type but you can configure the process to use, and some allow you to specify which item type and which process to use.
Without knowing exactly what you have done, though, there is no specific advice that anyone can give you here on what you need to do, apart from to ensure that you have saved the new definition to the database.

Registering JSP forms in oracle apps

Hi,
Can anyone suggest me how to register JSP forms in oracle apps 11i (11.5.9 version), on Windows NT
Regards

Hi,
My question is, how do I run the form in the Oracle Apps? After registering it.You already have the steps in your post, just add the form to the menu and attach it to the responsibility.
My question is, how do I know if a form has a function that needs to be registered?Sorry, I cannot be of much help here, but you may check the Developer Guide and see if it helps.

How to overwrite a log and bad file in external table in oracle 10g

Hi,
I have used external table in oracle 10g.whenever use select query in external table orace internally create one log file in specified directory,
but this log file is growing.How can i overwrite the log file(old to replace with new).I need overwrite a log and bad file in external table.
kindly give the solutions.
By
Siva

I don't believe that is possible with the LOGFILE clause, but it may be with the BADFILE clause. Here is an excerpt from the documentation :
The LOGFILE clause names the file that contains messages generated by the external tables utility while it was accessing data in the datafile. If a log file already exists by the same name, the access driver reopens that log file and appends new log information to the end. This is different from bad files and discard files, which overwrite any existing file. NOLOGFILE is used to prevent creation of a log file.
If you specify LOGFILE, you must specify a filename or you will receive an error.
If neither LOGFILE nor NOLOGFILE is specified, the default is to create a log file. The name of the file will be the table name followed by _%p and it will have an extension of .log.

The fastest way is to use external tables or sql loader (sqlldr). (If you use external tables or sql loader, you don't use C# at all).

How to register ADF pages in Oracle Applications 11.5.10 or 12

Hi,
I have created an ADF application with JSF pages. Now I want to register this application into Oracle Applications 11.5.10.2 or Release 12.
Any idea how can I do this? Is that possible now?
Thanks in advance
RG

Ram,
What I mean is once we deploy the application in R12 say OC4J with J2EE compliance, whatever, how to register this new application with the Oracle Applications like OA framework does?
This should be similar to hoiw u register any other custom jsp, although I haven't tried it in R12 after you have deployed your ADF page.To be clear, How can we use the Oracle Applications Menu/Function security to launch the ADF application?
You would not be able to use seeded Oracle apps features in your ADF application like global links, flexfields etc, because Apps still does not provide AOL/J layer for ADF applications.This is only for OAF/JTT/JTf applications.But your custom application can be launched like other pages from apps function. I am still 100% sure....(But should be possible as per the techstack features) I have to try this... once I get time :)!--Mukul

Join between SO and AR tables in Oracle Apps 11.0.3

Hello,
I am new to Order Management. Can anyone please suggest join between SO Tables and Receivables tables in Oracle Apps version 11.0.3.
I am working on an Invoicing error during Autoinvoice Import Program and I am doing workaround on this issue. This error comes for specific SO only. The error causes all invoices for a org not be imported into AR. To find out a solution for the same we run Autoinvoice into batches by Sales Order using a process of elimination to determine the offending So transaction. From these offending SO then we determine the customer for these SO's. And then find out if there are any other accounts that have relationships with the offending customer and then turn off that relationship. Then rerun Autoinvoice for that SO. Most of the time SO will be imported successfully. Can anyone please suggest what must be the issue in Autoinvoice Program as I am new this.
Thank You.

Meghana

I found this please also check this:

Why do we really use External tables in Oracle?

I looking why do we exactly use external tables in oracle and if you can help me please give me a scenario also.

Before External tables (long ago in a galaxy far, far away) we would have had to load the text file into the database, most likely using SQL Loader before we could 'read it'.
External tables allow us to define the text file in the Create table syntax and read that file over and over via SQL from the databse - In summary, I can access that text file (in parallel = fast) without loading it into my database, I just saved a step in my integration. I can also swap the file for a new file (same definition) and auto-magically access by new content.
Here is a good link with a scenario for you :
External Tables: An Introduction – All Things Oracle
Of course with ODI - the complexity of SQL Loader control files is hidden, we just define the text file, use the LKM File to SQL and load it in, but where is the fun in that?
Best check with your Solution Architect about what the best practises are for this in your organization.

How to Transfer the Data from ORACLE APPS to SAP

Hi Gurus,
Here are my couple of quieries regarding Data Migration from Legacy(Oracle Apps) to SAP.
1. How to link between Legacy system(ORACLE APPS) and SAP ?
2. How to migrate the data from Oracle tables to SAP directly, instead of loading the flat files(.txt, .xls) ?
Please respond to my queries ASAP.
Thanks,
SAPSURE.

1. How to link between Legacy system(ORACLE APPS) and SAP ?
        If you have SAP PI in place then you can interact with oracle database tables directly from PI and then data can be posted to SAP transactions through IDocs/BAPIs.
        If you did not have SAP PI still you can do JDBC connection directly from ABAP program. Not sure about the exact steps check in forum.
2. How to migrate the data from Oracle tables to SAP directly, instead of loading the flat files(.txt, .xls) ?
        If you want to directly post the data SAP transactions (I hope not directly to SAP tables) then connection needs to establish through ABAP program or Via. PI.
