Identifying the customization is OAF Page

Question

Hi,
I have a requirement to identify the customizations in  OAF pages from back end , in modules like AP,AR,GL.
I had used the below query
SELECT jdr_mds_internal.getdocumentname(ja.att_comp_docid) AS customized_document
                           FROM jdr_attributes ja
                          WHERE att_value LIKE '/oracle/apps/%customizations%';
ex: /oracle/apps/ap/oie/webui/customizations/responsibility/23/OIEMAINPAGE
Here how to identify the the above path is related to AP (Acccounts payable).
Thanks in Advance
Harry !!

Answer 1

There are 3 concepts in OAF: Personalizations, BC4J extensions/substitutions and Customizations.
Personalizations are stored in the MDS and there is a page under System Administration to list the personalizations for any given page.
Now, have in mind that there are personalizations for certain products that are provided also by Oracle.
BC4J extensions/substitutions involve the replacement of the BC4J objects referenced by a given page by custom BC4J objects (i.e.: queries) that can be achieved
via the personalizations feature (replacing the AMs referenced by the page).
Customizations involve custom controllers (java code), custom pages, custom BC4J objects, etc. and are more difficult to track if they are implemented as
"in-site" customizations (for example, a standard shipped file by oracle that is changed by the customer)
With all of these in mind, the first 2 can be detected by scanning the MDS for a certain group of pages.  The third is more complicated and the reason why we request customers to follow the standards in terms of splicing a new custom module.
Refer to the OAF troubleshooting guide for more information. See MOS note 1496055.1 for reference.
Let me know if any question.
Thanks
