How to use EBS R12 Database (10.2.0.2) for report analysis tools?

Hi All,
My client wants to use reporting tools for bussiness analysis.For this I want to use a separate database which will be replica of production database.Is there any way to achieve this in R12 database(10.2.0.2)?
Kindly share your experience.

Latif

As Srini states, knowing more about your requirements would help us to help you. :-)
Do you need a daily twice/daily snapshot of your data? If so, then you might be able to implement the solution that Srini mentioned earlier. An added benefit of this method is that it can go beyond the creation of a reporting database: it can also be leveraged in the creation of additional clones for test and dev environments.
Do you need real-time replication of data to your reporting database? If so, then you might want to investigate Oracle Streams/Goldengate (disclaimer: I'm typing on the fly, so I'm not 100% certain that this is supported).
If you're willing to license more Oracle software to solve your problem, you might also consider Oracle Business Intelligence Applications, which has out-of-the-box integration with E-Business Suite for common reporting/business intelligence needs. There are additional costs involved, but you can weigh those against the development costs of "rolling your own" MVs and reports, and maintaining them.
Again, knowing your requirements, constraints, and points of flexibility will go a long way toward figuring out which option best suits you. :)

How to use Oracle OAB Fast Formulas in Discoverer-desktop [ for reporting]

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to use a fast formula in discoverer-desktop [for reporting]. Currently, we have a disco-report that calcuates the 'monthly salary', but we don't want to use that. Instead, we have a custom fast-formula [xx_oab_monthly_salary] which has the conditions and calculations that we need.
I want to use that formula in discoverer-desktop directly and get the monthly-salary.. i.e., someone needs to create a folder under the business area and add it i believe.. the formula internally calls a function.
when i checked about this with my dba - he said, he can add the 'function', but not the formula. and i need to write the calculation part...
does anyone know how to add it...there shud a way right...
i do not have access to the technical-stuff here..
someone said ["you can wrap the FF_EXEC.run_formula call into your own pl/sql function and map this function into the EUL so that the formula can be called from a workbook.", but this talks about pl/sql-do we need pl/sql
for this].
also, someone else said [ some fast formulas need specific contexts to be set. Depending on whether the fast formula below the only fast formula that you want to recreate in Discoverer.
For a single formula, in general my recommendation is to recreate the fast formula instead of using the ff_exec call].
any quick answers greatly appreciate..
thx,

Hi,
That's right you need to develop the pl/sql function outside of Discoverer using a pl/sql tool or just SQL*plus. I haven't an example to hand, but can dig one up if you need it. Once you have the function developed you can map it into the EUL using Discoverer Administrator. It will then be available to Discoverer Desktop/Plus as a database function when creating calculations. So you can then just add the calculation to an existing or new report.
Alternatively, you can build the pl/sql function into a view and load the view into a new folder using Discoverer Admin.

You will have to perform a complete install of 12.2.0 with 11.2.0.3 database, then perform a database upgrade to 11.2.0.4. You cannot use an existing 11.2.0.4 install.
In addition , the FRESH PROD database include only metadata such as table structure , packages ... , NO DATA ?   and VISION database
includes all metadata in FRESH PROD and also include table data   ?
Fresh PROD database will include seed data, but no user data (which you will have to populate). VISION includes seed and sample data for fictional Vision corporation.

[HTML DB] How to use the existing database table?

[HTML DB] How to use the existing database table?
I installed Oracle 10g database in Computer A(Windows 2000), and I already create all the tables with data and the data size is about 300MB.
In Computer B(Windows 2000), I installed HTML DB 1.6.
How can I use /get the existing database table (in computer A) for HTML DB?
Could anyone help me on this? I am newbie and I need some detail instructions. or Where can I find the examples.....
Thanks

Well I guess if you wish to retain that architecture, i.e. HTMLDB on one machine and your data on another, you will have to establish database links to access the data. Oracle documentation will describe how to achieve that.

How to use the default database service name on creating procedure for data

how to use the default database service name on creating procedure for datagaurd client failover ??? all oracle doc says create a new service as below and enable at DB startup. but our client is using/wanted database default service to connect from application on the datagaurd environment (rac to non rac setup).please help.
Db name is = prod.
exec DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE (service_name => 'prod',network_name =>'prod',failover_method => 'BASIC',failover_type => 'SELECT',failover_retries => 180,failover_delay => 1);
says already the service available.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER manage_dgservice after startup on database DECLARE role
VARCHAR(30);BEGIN SELECT DATABASE_ROLE INTO role FROM V$DATABASE;
IF role = 'NO' THEN DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('prod');
END IF;
END;
says trigger created, but during a swithover still the service is listeneing on listener.
tns entry.
prod =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(LOAD_BALANCE = YES)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = prod1)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = prod2)(PORT = 1521)) ---> primary db entry
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = proddr)(PORT = 1521)) --> DR DB entry
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = prod)
thanks in advance.
Edited by: 854393 on Dec 29, 2012 11:52 AM

Hello;
So in the example below replace "ernie" with the alias you want the client to use.
I can show you how I do it :
First an entry need to be added to the client tnsnames.ora that uses a SERVICE_NAME instead of a SID.
ernie =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Primary.host)(PORT = 1521))
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Standby.host)(PORT = 1521))
       (CONNECT_DATA =
       (SERVICE_NAME = ernie)
)Next the service 'ernie' needs to be created manually on the primary database.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE('ernie','ernie');
END;
/After creating the service needs to be manually started.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('ernie');
END;
/Several of the default parameters can now be set for 'ernie'.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.MODIFY_SERVICE
   ('ernie',
   FAILOVER_METHOD => 'BASIC',
   FAILOVER_TYPE => 'SELECT',
   FAILOVER_RETRIES => 200,
   FAILOVER_DELAY => 1);
END;
/Finally a database STARTUP trigger should be created to ensures that this service is only offered if the database is primary.
CREATE TRIGGER CHECK_ERNIE_START AFTER STARTUP ON DATABASE
DECLARE
V_ROLE VARCHAR(30);
BEGIN
SELECT DATABASE_ROLE INTO V_ROLE FROM V$DATABASE;
IF V_ROLE = 'PRIMARY' THEN
DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('ernie');
ELSE
DBMS_SERVICE.STOP_SERVICE('ernie');
END IF;
END;
/lsnrctl status - should show the new service.
When I do this the Database will still register with the listener. I don't give that to the clients. That one will still be available but nobody knows about it. Meanwhile "ernie" moves with the database role.
So in my example the default just hangs out in the background.

Can we use replication usings oracle 10g steams for EBS r12 database?

HI,
We are using EBS 12.0.6 and database 10.2.0.3 on linux 32-bit/64-bit OS (Multi-Node env).
Actually We want to decrease the load of custom reports on actual production system, so thats why
we need reports server and as my past experience I had used oracle streams for replication with simple schema based replication and tablespace replication also.
So, please educate me, that can i used the oracle 10g streams for EBS schemas like APPS, GL ,INV, PO, ONT, ODM, AR, AP, CM etc?
Please provide us the above related env docs and road Map.
If you have any other way to create the Report Server?
Regard,
Fayaz Ahmed

Hi,
We are not in a position to upgrade the EBS from 12.0.6 to 12.1, because this is lengthy task, but we had already tested technically it in test env, but functional testing in pending.
Now we want to immediate solution if possible, because this is production?
So, please suggest another.
regards

Converting EBS R12 database to RAC 11gR2

We are on EBS R12 with 11gR2 database. I read the document 823587.1 with emphasis on Section 3. We are planning to convert the existing EBS database to a 2-node RAC on new servers.
1. Install 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure on new servers.
2. Install 11gR2 database software on the 2 nodes with local disk.
3. Configure listener.
4. Implement and run Autoconfig on the 2 nodes.
5. Start Application processes.
I am not clear about how the data is migrated to the new servers with shared disk using ASM. How is this part done? Mind you, we are moving from a single node server to two brand new servers. I understand that part of using rconfig to convert from single node database to 2 node RAC. But we are not planning to use the existing database server as part of new RAC environment. Thanks.

It sounds like you are trying to build out new boxes.
The Shared Storage will have to be setup first with the datafiles/control files, then you could clone the database to the new servers. with RMAN or some other method.
Your Sysadmin (Unix) should be able to help setting up the shared storage. then on the clone based on how you do it. The Datafiles can be mapped to the new storage area and/or ASM. The Tasks are slightly different.

EBS R12 Database Copy or clone - init.ora, and spfile conflict...

Hi All,
I am a report developer. I have two servers(VMs)
Server1: Win 2008, Oracle EBS R12.1.1. (db_name = vis)
Server2: Win XP SP3, Oracle 11g R1 (db_name = orcl)
My goal is to copy the whole EBS R12.1.1 Vision Instance database (VIS) on Server1 to Server 2 Oracle Database....And please note that I need only data in those schemas - I use that to run ETL scripts, so, on Server2 I am not going to run any EBS Applications(Forms, or reports or others).
In order to do this I am http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_db_copy.htm method.
During the process I have encountered an issue - Server1 (VIS) database uses initVIS.ora file as parameter file, where as Server 2 uses SPFILE.ORA as parameter file.
in Step8 we have to copy the init.ora file from EBS R12 to Server2, but this doesn't help me as server2 use spfile.
please give me your suggestions to solve this gap......
Thanks!

How to use your own database with your users to authenticate in a Web app?

Hello, everybody!
I'm starting to write my first web application and I'm going to use JSF, JPA and EJB3 in this application. One of the first things that I have to do on it is the authentication part where I'll have a page with a user name and a password for the user to login. So, as I'm new to all this in Java (I've already implemented this on .NET in the past), I was studying the Java EE 5 Tutorial, especifically the section "Example: Using Form-Based Authentication with a JSP Page". But I saw that the users that the sample application uses come from the file realm on the Application Server. The users are created there and assigned a name, a password and a group. After the users are in the Application Server we can simply uses forms authentication declaratively in the deployment descriptor (web.xml).
But the problem is that this doesn't work to me as I already have my own database with my users, so I want to use it instead of having to create the users on the Application Server.
So, I'm asking you how to do that. Of course I'm not expecting that you place the code here to me as I know that such a thing could be complicated. Instead, I'm asking if you know about some tutorial, article, book or something that teaches how to do what I want. But I would like to see theses examples using JSF and/or EJB3 because these are the technologies that I'm using to develop. It's a pity that the Java EE 5 Tutorial doesn't have an example using a custom database as I know that this situation is very common in the majority of web sites.
Thank you very much.
Marcos

From memory, it goes like this... You just create a
raw jdbc connection on your user database using a
special "login" DB user account, which has
permissions only to an "authenticate" stored query,
which accepts two arguments: username & password, and
returns a boolean 0 or 1 rows found.When I implemented this in .NET's ASP.NET I had the same solution. I had an special user created in the database that I used to log in. When the real user entered his username and password I was already logged in and I had just to check his username and password agains the right table in my database.
But that was only possible bacause when I connected to the database using my hidden user, I used the rights APIs in ASP.NET that coordinate the authentication process. This means that before login in, no one could access any resources (pages, atc...). So what I'm saying is that I can't manager this manually in Java. Java has to have some API or whatever to allow me to control the login process programmatically, while letting the Application Server control the access to the resources.

How to use OWN logical database

Hi all,
hope somebody can help me.
I copied a standard logical database (FPMF). The program which I use and have modified is also copied from standard.
How can I assure that the program use MY logical database instead of the SAP-One?
In my case I have some get statements. And these get statements all refer to FPMF and not to my copied database.
Do anybody what's the probelm?
Cheers
Philip

Yes, I know. And I am not happy with this solution.
But I didn't see another way for my issue.
Thank you very much.
