Is Asset Tracking module mandatory for Oracle Install Base implementation?

In the Oracle Install Base implementation guide, it is mentioned that Asset Tracking (previously Enterprise Install Base) Module is mandatory. Our situation does not warrant to implement asset tracking. Do we need to get separate license for Asset tracking if we need to implement Install base? Any insight on this would be highly helpful. Thanks

Asset Tracking Module -Can I track part of any item..?

Hello, I wonder in Asset Tracking module can I track any item part of an item. Example I have an A item and also B item. B item is part of A item. Can I track B item in asset tracking module and how?
Thanks.

If you are using EAM, then you can define the Printer as parent asset and Cartridge as child asset and establish the Parent-Child relationship.

How to update item instance in oracle install base?

Hi,
I have a doubt in updating item instance in oracle install base.
I am using a API named csi_item_instance_pub.update_item_instance for this. I want to update Party OWNER, party contacts, Current location,Install location, bill_to address,ship_to address..etc. When i try to update party owner, it is updating in csi_i_parties(col:party_id) as well as updating in csi_item_instance(owner_party_id). In csi_item_instance table,owner_party_id column is updated. but corresponding owner_party_account_id is not changed. I have given party_account_id to update in csi_ip_accounts table. It has changed in csi_ip_accounts table. But in csi_item_instance table(owner_party_account_id) is not changing. Can anybody help on how to change owner_party_account_id in csi_item_instance table please? Thanks in advance.

Out of the box, I don't think that there is any API or program to delete the records from csi_item_instances because deleting IB record affects many modules (like Inventory, Order, Service Contracts etc). IB records should be expired if they are created incorrectly and you can run Transaction History Purge program to delete all history records related to that item.

Oracle Install Base Interface Error

Error: The source item instance 33604, in Subinventory 4131, for Organization 734 in Oracle Install Base does not exist. Please verify that any receipt transations were successful.
I have checked values by running the following SQL:
select Instance_ID, location_type_code, location_id, INV_ORGANIZATION_ID, INV_SUBINVENTORY_NAME, instance_status_id
from csi_item_instances where Serial_Number = '08112025CWDIND'
INV_ORGANIZATION_ID is 734
INV_SUBINVENTORY_NAME is 4131
But still the transaction is stuck with the above error.
Please help to clear this error.

Please see if the following docs help.

Clarity on basics of oracle Install Base

I am not getting clarity over the below mentioned items even after going thru documents. Can anybody please highlight on these...
--> what exactly is an instance in install base and how is it associated to a serial number of an item or product?
--> what is meant by maintaining relationship between instances?
--> At what position specific to Service Contracts / Order Management / Shipping applications, an instance gets created or updated in install base?
--> what is meant by serial control over an item from an shipping organization perspective?
--> what are the other applications that can be a source for an Install Base transaction?
Thanks,

Oracle Installed Base

Does the Oracle Installed Base system, lend itself to being populated with Install Base data from legacy ERP systems? It's my impression that the Install Base data, starts in inventory and ends at a customer location, but is it a requirement that everything start in inventory?
Thanks

is it a requirement that everything start in inventory?Nope, I usually start from scratch.
Seriously now:
Give us a clear picture, if possible, provide some links or whatever. Anything.

User Status Profile for an Installed Base

hello everybody!
I need your help! I want to assign a User Status for an Installed Base, Anybody knows what is the step by step for this?
I already have the User status profile, but i dont know where I can assign it into de Ibase.
I think is into this Dialog step but I'm not sure. This is SAP CRM 7.0.
Thank you so much for your help, regards!

Hi,
You need to add the below Object Types in your user status profile.
Go into your user status profile and click on the Object Types as highlighted below and then enable the list of object types. Then you will be able to see the status profile in the IBase header.
Enable these object types for IBase.

Removing an RPM for Oracle Install

Hi,
I need to know how to remove a specific RPM. I am running Oracle on RHEL 4.
When the Oracle install does the checks it fails on one of the RPM's. Here is what I did:
[root@vtl-oracle logs]# rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n" | grep elfutils-libelf
elfutils-libelf-0.97.1-4 (x86_64)
elfutils-libelf-0.97.1-4 (i386) - - I need to remove this one because I am running a 64bit and Oracle Install keeps picking it up.
elfutils-libelf-devel-0.97.1-4 (x86_64)
when I issue the following command I get the statement:
[root@vtl-oracle logs]# rpm -e elfutils-libelf-0.97.1-4.i386
error: Failed dependencies:
libelf.so.1 is needed by (installed) elfutils-0.97.1-4.i386
libelf.so.1(ELFUTILS_1.0) is needed by (installed) elfutils-0.97.1-4.i386
libelf.so.1(ELFUTILS_1.1) is needed by (installed) elfutils-0.97.1-4.i386
I only want the 64 bit ones, not the i386 ones.

If you truly mean swap (and not /tmp), you have to be root to create a new swap partition (or swapfile) and then add it in with swapon -a
Are you sure that you REALLY want to get rid of the elf package? I did an Oracle 10g install on RHEL4 about a month ago, and there were 32-bit libraries that it had to have alongside the 64-bit ones.
You could force the removal, but I don't recommend it, using nodeps or force (I think it's this, haven't tried it in a while).

Oracle Install Base API question

Hi...I need help. I am writing an extension to the Service Fulfillment Manager (SFM) Transactions
Here is a functional background:
For all SFM message types, SFM exposes the PL/SQL code in the iMessage studio. iMessage studio is an Oracle EBS Application tool. The PL/SQL for the following message types will be modified:
·     Sales Order Shipment - CSISOSHP
·     Miscellaneous Receipt - CSIMSRCV
·     Receipt into Inventory – CSIPOINV
The processing logic for each of these transaction types contains a call to an Installed Base package and stores the return status in a variable. For PO Receipt and SO Issue transactions referencing serial numbers prefixed by the Vertical Bar (‘|’) character this call will be bypassed and a successful status placed in the return status variable.
For PO Receipt and Miscellaneous Receipt transactions referencing serial numbers not prefixed by the Vertical Bar (‘|’) character, the processing logic will be extended to extract the IUID value from the serial numbers table in the Oracle Inventory module (MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS) and call the public IB Application Programming Interface (API) (CSI_ITEM_INSTANCE_PUB.UPDATE_ITEM_INSTANCE) to update the associated IB instance with the IUID.
OK, so Question #1:
I get all I need to do is bypass the code in 2 instances if a bar is found at the beginning of the serial number.. And I can do that. But where is this serial number? I assume it is stored in MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS but how do I get it?
The code doesn't have it stored as a variable, and it doesn't seem to have the IB record either. Is there a foreign key? Anyone have imessage studio and can look into that?
Question #2:
To update the IB record with the serial number I need to make a call to the below procedure. The thing is, it seems to require the IB instance record. Again, I don't have that cause the code is creating it! Is there some way to get that created record back and pass it into the update procedure?
PROCEDURE update_item_instance

Oracle Install Base - Where to find Queries related to parties and Loaction

Hi All,
Did anybody looked in Installed Base module, from where the party and location addresses are coming.
for example, when we select a party name and select GO button in the create item instance page , we will get some list of parties to select. From there we will select one party name.
I want in which jsp or java file the Query is located to retrieve all the parties here.
If anybody worked on this previously please help me.
Thanks in advance,
Murali.

Try putting 'CSI_DEBUG=TRUE&' in the url....right after '.jsp?'

Oracle Install Base relationship to Serial Numbers

OK, so the table CSI_TRANSACTIONS is a listing of transactions within Install Base, right?
I need to associate a serial number with each. How is this table connected to MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS?
If I have an install base transaction_id...how do I get the serial number?
Any help would be appreciated!

select a.serial_number from mtl_unit_transactions a,mtl_material_transactions b, csi_transactions c
where a.transaction_id=b.transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=c.inv_material_transaction_id
UNION
select a.serial_number from mtl_unit_transactions a,mtl_material_transactions b, csi_transactions c,mtl_transaction_lot_numbers d
where a.transaction_id=d.serial_transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=d.transaction_id
and b.transaction_id=c.inv_material_transaction_id;
Thanks
