Integration of Ep with BI

I have an EP 7.0 sitting on a java server and another BI system sitting on a different server.the BI system has its own Portal for technical reasons.
I have the SSO and system connectivity working between the ep7.0 and the BI server.
question 1: which portal do I use to allow end users to use the portal. ( the ep7.0 or the portal which comes along with the BI system) ?
question 2: If I am using the EP7.0 for the end users what do I do with the portal which comes along with the BI system ?
I understand that the BI-JAVA usage type is required to enable the Bex functions to work , hence I have my EP7.0 with usage types (AS java, bi-java and EPC, EP ) for the EP7.0 portal.

Problem in Integration of Apex with R12

Hello,
I followed the paper apex-ebs-extension-white-paper-345780.pdf to do Integration of Apex with R12. but stuck on one step.
I am done with all the steps in R12. Now if i click the menu in R12, its going to my existing Apex aplication but still asking username and password.
Can anyone help me out in what exactly I need to change in Apex Authentication scheme in Apex. Right now I am using Authentication scheme as Application Express.
Please help me out
Thanks in advance

Hi Mini,
Thanks a lot for ur replies. But it is not working for me. I am not able to figure out whats going wrong.
My Requirement is to redirect to the first page of my application without asking for the APEX login page from the EBS menu.
So summarizing whatever I steps i have followed:-
(1) Created Profile and function in APPS as given in "apex-ebs-extension-white-paper-345780.pdf"
(2) I created the following package in APPS schema
     CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE APPS.XXAPX_SECURITY_PKG AUTHID DEFINER AS
     FUNCTION generate_hash (
     p_string IN VARCHAR2
     , p_offset IN NUMBER DEFAULT 0) RETURN VARCHAR2;
     FUNCTION validate_hash (
     p_string IN VARCHAR2
     , p_hash IN VARCHAR2
     , p_delay IN NUMBER DEFAULT 5) RETURN BOOLEAN;
     END XXAPX_SECURITY_PKG;
     CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY APPS.XXAPX_SECURITY_PKG AS
     g_key VARCHAR2(100);
     FUNCTION generate_hash (
     p_string IN VARCHAR2
     , p_offset IN NUMBER DEFAULT 0) RETURN VARCHAR2
     IS
     BEGIN
     IF p_string IS NULL THEN RETURN NULL; END IF;
     RETURN RAWTOHEX(UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw(
     DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT.MD5(
          input_string=>p_string||':'||
          TO_CHAR(SYSDATE-(p_offset/24*60*60), 'YYYYMMDD HH24MISS')||g_key)));
     END generate_hash;
     FUNCTION validate_hash (
     p_string IN VARCHAR2
     , p_hash IN VARCHAR2
     , p_delay IN NUMBER DEFAULT 5) RETURN BOOLEAN
     IS
     BEGIN
     FOR i IN 0..p_delay LOOP
     IF p_hash = generate_hash (p_string, i) THEN RETURN TRUE; END IF;
     END LOOP;
     RETURN FALSE;
     END validate_hash;
     BEGIN
     SELECT encrypted_user_password INTO g_key
     FROM FND_USER WHERE user_name = 'SYSADMIN';
     END XXAPX_SECURITY_PKG;
(3) Created a function in the APPS schema:-
     create or replace FUNCTION ebs_authenticate (
     p_username IN VARCHAR2
     , p_password IN VARCHAR2) RETURN BOOLEAN
     AS
     BEGIN
     IF apps.XXAPX_SECURITY_PKG.validate_hash (p_username, p_password) THEN RETURN TRUE; END IF;
     RETURN (apps.FND_WEB_SEC.validate_login (p_username, p_password) = 'Y');
     END ebs_authenticate;
(4) In my authentication scheme of my apex application i have changed it to use custom authentication to use the below function
     return apps.ebs_authenticate
(5) Created a procedure in the APPS schema:-
     create or replace PROCEDURE apps_logon
     IS
     v_username VARCHAR2(100);
     v_password VARCHAR2(32);
     BEGIN
     wfa_sec.getsession(v_username);
     v_password := xxapx_security_pkg.generate_hash(FND_GLOBAL.user_name);
     IF v_password IS NOT NULL THEN
     APEX_CUSTOM_AUTH.login(
          P_UNAME => v_username,
          P_PASSWORD => v_password,
          P_SESSION_ID => v('APP_SESSION'),
          P_APP_PAGE => apex_application.g_flow_id||':38'
     ELSE
     RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001, 'Password is null, session id = '||icx_sec.g_session_id);
     END IF;
     END apps_logon;
(6) In my login page, i have created a process Get Username Cookie and with the process point: onload(Before Header)
     BEGIN
     apps.apps_logon;
     EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
     END;
Now I am getting this error with the login page :-
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Set-Cookie: WWV_CUSTOM-F_1120314105059329_811=B4134623EB436033; path=/; Location: f?CallFromForm='Y'&p=811:38
Please help me figure out the problem as I am struggling a lot with this from last few days :(
Thanks in advance.

Best practice for integrating oracle atg with external web service

Hi All
What is the best practice for integrating oracle atg with external web service? Is it using integration repository or calling the web service directly from the java class using a WS client?
With Thanks & Regards
Abhishek

Using Integration Repository might cause performance overhead based on the operation you are doing, I have never used Integration Repository for 3rd Party integration therefore I am not able to make any comment on this.
Calling directly as a Java Client is an easy approach and you can use ATG component framework to support that by making the endpoint, security credentials etc as configurable properties.
Cheers

Integrating Portal Server with MS Exchange Server

I am trying to outline a solution for integrating MS Exchange with Portal
Server. I realize that this can be done through the Exchange Netlet in iPS
3.0, but this will enable Outlook client access on the users machine through
the portal, and is not what we are looking for. What we would like to
provide is calendar (appointments, tasks, etc.) and mail information within
a channel on the portal. We would then provide a link to the web-based
interface for Exchange within the channel. The interface is simple, since
web-Exchange provides a URL, although any insight on providing SSO to the
application would be helpful.
Is there a way we can interface with Exchange using Java-based wrappers to
retrieve the calendar and mail information for a specific user? It seems
like the NetMail and iPlanet Calendar Server implementations would be
overkill for what we are looking for.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Here are some of my
thoughts:
1. Since Outlook has a web-interface(provides a URL), we can obviously serve
the web application up through the portal.
2. iPlanet Portal Server 3.0 NetMail. This will provide us with an IMAP
interface to the contents of the mail server, allow a user to send emails,
read emails, create folders, change folders, etc. This seems to provide a
full-fledge email application, which may be more than we actually need. Is
there any way to use the Java NetMail Servlet or the NetMail Lite version to
get what we are looking for?
3. Using iPlanet Calendar Server for the appointments and schedule, although
I believe that Exchange does not conform to the iCalendar protocol
specification? Again, this is a full-fledge calendar application, and seems
to be overkill for what we may need.
4. Using a netlet to connect to Microsoft Exchange server, which can be done
with Portal Server 3.0 because it implements the Microsoft Exchange/DCE
protocol. Again, this provides Outlook client access, and I am not sure if
this is what we want. Can we use the NetLet to capture the information
being retrieved from exchange and display it using JSP rather than s
5. Writing a Java wrapper to the contents of the mail server using the Java
Mail API, although this does not solve the calendar problem. We can then
display whatever info we want on our JSP pages using the wrapper classes.

Integrating WebLogic Server with CA SiteMinder Web Agent R6

Hi I have searched on the topic of integrating WebLogic Server with the CA SiteMinder Web Agent R6 to provide single sign on services, and have been unable to find anything. Does anyone have any experience with this that could provide some tips, or could direct me to some documentation?

It definitely can work. We have done the same thing in several installations. The question is "How secure does it need to be?" You will be using SM to do authentication. You will configure SSO to trust the SM header variable. If you really want to be secure you need to configure your boxes so that the http server on you SUSE box (for Portal) can only be accessed from the Reverse Proxy. If another machine can access it someone could spoof the header variable and log in as anyone they want.
Hope this is helpful.

Integrating mod_plsql reports with Oracle Apps. A maddening dilemma.

I'm hoping there is some guru out there that has the perfect solution to this maddening dilemma I'm facing.
The crux of the issue is this.
I've created mod_plsql reports that can accept a session_id with which they can set a user context based on global application contexts set in Oracle applications by users as they log in.
At this juncture, I have not figured out a way to call those mod_plsql reports from Oracle apps using a variable session_id as defined for the user when they logged into apps.
My client want to be able to log into Oracle apps and then go to the mod_plsql reports from the Oracle Apps menu and maintain the user session, so that the mod_plsql reports are run using VPD to constrain access to the data they are displaying to that specific user.
The client does not have Single Sign On installed nor OID.
I had hoped to pass a variable parameter session_id from the defined menu function that would call the mod_plsql url, but I don't see any way to pass a variable there and am becoming convinced that doing so is not an option. Can anyone confirm this?
An alternate option I'm considering that seems like it would work is to create a JSP page that gets called from a menu function. In that JSP page, I would retrieve the session_id set in apps based on the context for the user_id that I could retrieve from fnd_global.user_id and assemble a URL with the session_id that the page would then re-route to the mod_plsql page.
Unfortunately, I'm not versed in JSP.
How hard would it be to create the sort of page that I'm talking about?
Would the JSP need to part of OAF?
Can anyone think of any other options that would take care of the issue I'm dealing with?
Thanks.
Kurt

Integration of BI with Oracle EBS R12

Hi friends,
Im in the process of integrating oracle BI 11g with the EBS R12, by following the saurabh gautam document.
I followed all the steps indeed in the document but it didnt worked as i can redirect to the BI 11g page soon after clicking the menu in the EBS R12, but the BI login page is appearing soon after that. Since i dont want that login page to ask and im looking for SSO with BI.
So, soon after clicking the menu it has to go the BI home page directly. I have followed all the steps in the document but none seemed to work.
I have followed the below steps in the EBS R12 application side.
<li>Function
<li>Menu
<li>Responsibility
<li>User
<li>Profile
And also setted up the change described in that document in the BI side too.
<li>the Connection Pool for Oracle e-Business Suite database
<li>Setting up Authentication
<li>OBIEE Configuration Changes
-----------Updating authenticationschemas.xml
-----------Updating instanceconfig.xml.
Finally i have restarted the BI server too. But while clicking the menu in EBS now it is redirecting to the BI login page instead of navigating to the BI home page.
What might be the issue friends, is im missing something in the document that i followed.
Brgds,
Mini

Hi,
See below my thread this might be of some help to you. We could successfully integrate EBS and OBIEE.

chandrasekhar.

Hi
I found exact note
Is OID 10g/11g DIP Compatible / Certified With Microsoft Active Directory 2008 / Windows 2008 R1/R2? [ID 944298.1]
From note:
DIP 10g latest version (10.1.4.3) and DIP 11g up to PS4 / 11.1.1.5 Patchset releases integrations are certified with MS AD 2008 R1 only.
DIP 11g certification with AD 2008 R2 is supported only with DIP 11g PS5 / 11.1.1.6 Patchset or higher.
Note: Although DIP below 11.1.1.6 integration (synchronization, external authentication, etc.) with MS Windows / AD 2008 R2 may work, it is not officially compatible / certified. See also Note 1076018.1.

New GL - Real time integration of controlling with financial accounting

Hi,
What are the impacts of activating new GL in already existing system. I need to use the real time integration of CO to FI functionality in new GL only. Can i activate new GL for this function only?
Please advise
thanks

Hi
Yes, by activating New GL you would have real time integration of FI with CO and you dont need reconciliation ledger as available before.
More over at the document level itself the profit centers are written to the balance sheets accounts which was earlier done in the period end activities to transfer the profit centers to debtors and creditors etc., which is known as "Document Splitting".
You also need assign the various GL accounts and sceaniors in Controllingwhich needs to activated with Document splitting.
