Oracle E-Commerce Gateway - 11i

Hello,
This is on 11.5.10.2
I have a need to setup trading partner groups and trading partners for roughly about 120,000 customers and EDI sites. As you can see, manually entering these many sites in Oracle E-Commerce Trading partner group is a hugely laborious effort and a time consuming one.
Therefore, I am looking for an API to select customer and site info from TCA tables and pro grammatically create Trading Partners in Oracle ECommerce gateway.
Is there any such Standard API that exists out of box Oracle ?
Thanks,
D

Hi
You can try to insert directly into Trading Partner tables. They are ece_tp_group, ece_tp_headers, ece_tp_details etd

Oracle E-Commerce Gateway - Licence

Hi All,
In our R12 vision and CRP instance, Oracle e-Commerce gateway is getting installed. I have also used, and tested e-Commerce gateway, it is working fine. My assumption it is coming along with the R12 release, no seperate licence is required.
Please let me know if there are any special licence is required to use e-Commerce gateway.

Refer to the following links (not sure if this module license is mentioned in these links):
Oracle Price Lists
http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/pricelists.html
Software Investment Guide
http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/sig.html
For Oracle license queries/questions, I would suggest you contact your Oracle Sales representative.

E-Commerce Gateway Question about Interface File Definition.

Hello Gurus,
Does anyone know if Oracle e-Commerce Gateway (11.5.10.2) deliver the Interface File Definition for Inbound Purchase Orders (850/ORDERS) - _'IN: Purchase Orders (850/ORDERS)'_ out of the box?
I see Interface File Definition for OPM Purchase Order along with a bunch of other trx sets (like ASNI, INI, INO) but not Purchase Orders (850/ORDERS) in the instance that I am working... so just wanted to verify.
Thanks
Dave

Following are some of the pros of using XML Gateway:
1) XML is being accepted and more and more technologies are moving towards XML, so that "seems" to a future ready solution
2) XML processing is real-time.
3) Most of the maps for universally accepted standards are seeded in Oracle.
4) You can use Oracle Supplier Network(Free service provided by Oracle) with your XML gateway to transmit/receive xml documents to a supplier who may or may not be accepting the format you are generating(e.g. if your PO is in OAG standard and your supplier is accepting cXML format, OSN takes care of translating your document)
You might want to consider these points while deciding the technology.

E-Commerce Gateway

Is anyone using this module, E-Commerce Gateway?
If so, is it hard to set up? Did you attend a class or did you hire consultants to set this up? What all does this module do for you or what are you using it for?
Thanks in advance for any information you can give me.

Yes, We are using this.
It will help you to extract the base tables data into a flat file as per your flat file definition.
You no need to write a program to extarct the data or import the data.
Please read the following two oracle application manuals.
Oracle e-Commerce Gateway Implementation Manual
AND
Oracle e-Commerce Gateway User's Guide
and these documents will help you to understand the setup and what you can do in e-commerce gateway.

Why to implement e-commerce gateway?

Hi All,
We are in process of finalization of whether we should Tibco route or e-commerce route for the inbound and outbound transations.
My understanding of E-Commerce Gateway is :-
It takes the flat file provide by EDI translator(X12 format) and pushes these data into the interface table with some validation like trading partner validation,location validation etc.We are doing trading partner setup in e-commerce gateway.
I have a EDI translator team(TIBCO) who is implementing TIBCO.As per their suggestion,they want to push the data from EDI translator to one extension table on the top of it one PLSQL validation will be written which will take care of all the E-Commerce Gateway validation,and then populate these data in the interface table.Please let me know which route is best suited and more realiable since we need to implement lots of EDI transactions here.
Regards.

If you are looking at e-Commerce Gateway, you should also look at the full Oracle B2B solution, which includes complete integration, EDI, mapping, TPM, AS2 etc. capabilities. It provides a standards-driven, flexible, end-to-end solution that you won't find elsewhere. If you are and e-Business Suite user, this would be an ideal choice.

E-Commerce Gateway POI records 9202 and 9203

In Oracle EBS version 12.1.3, e-Commerce Gateway, what is the purpose of and how do you use the 9202 and 9203 records in the inbound purchase order (POI) document layout definition? Is there, and where is, published documentation concerning this functionality?

You can use apps.ece_utilities.verify_flatfile to check on how the application reads the file according to the defined layout and see whan might not be falling on the expected positions.

Budgeting And Forecasting Enhancements Enhanced Automatic Calculation and Derivation Logic
For plan lines that do not have a specified a quantity, the amount is no longer copied to the quantity field with the rate value set to 1.
Rate now has a lower precedence than quantity and amount in automatic calculations. The rate will be re-derived when the quantity, rate and amount are entered at the same time for a plan line.
When the burden multiplier is overridden by updates to the raw cost or burden cost, subsequent calculations of the burden cost will use the override burden multiplier. The same is true when the markup percent is updated by changes to plan line components: the override markup percentage will be used in revenue calculations.

Supplier Cost DashboardSubcontractor Payment ControlsSupport for Pay when Paid Scenarios
A new “Pay when Paid” payment term for subcontracts automatically places holds on all subcontractor invoices under that subcontract until the corresponding customer payment is received.
Subcontract Payment Controls workbench allows project manager to manage the holds, with visibility into both the customer invoices and the related subcontractor invoices.
Workflow notifications about the receipt of the customer payment allow the project manager to automatically or manually release the subcontract invoice.
Associations between the customer invoices and the subcontractor invoices may be automatically maintained based on the billing of project expenditures for cost-plus contracts, or may be manually maintained for fixed price contracts.
Payment Controls for Subcontract Deliverables
Support for the tracking and monitoring of subcontract deliverables that place automatic holds on subcontractor invoices in the case of noncompliance.
Oracle Procurement Contracts allow a subcontract administrator to specify payment impact controls that will take effect when a subcontract deliverable is not met.
From the Subcontractor Payment Controls workbench, the project manager can view a checklist of the all the current subcontract deliverables, to assist in evaluating the subcontractor status prior to releasing monthly progress payments.

Assignments cannot be added beyond the project end date.
A project team role end date cannot be beyond the project end date. If the roles are created before the project end dates are entered, users will receive an error if they later try to enter an end date that is earlier than the end date for existing roles.
When project transaction dates are moved corresponding assignment dates are validated against the new project dates. If the new project transaction dates fall outside the dates for existing assignments, users are given an option to shift the assignment dates or cancel the date adjustment.

Hello,
I have question regarding accessing Oracle e-Business suite (11i or r12) via internet from remote location.

BI Publisher with Oracle e-Business Suite 11i in EBS security mode

Seems I submitted below in wrong forums earlier so posing to correct one now. Appreciate any help.
Hi All,
I want to configure BI Publisher that comes as a part of OBIEE in Oracle E-Business Suite security mode. My Oracle E-Business Suite 11i runs on 3 node RAC database and 3 node apps tier/cm tier. As per configuration guide, I changed security mode in BIP to 'Oracle E-Business' and uploaded DBC file from E-business suite Web&Forms tier. In DBC file TWO_TASK parameter has value of test_806_BALANCE which is just an alias in tnsnames.ora for load balancing. Now when I go to BI publisher and click on 'Roles and Permission' tab in security center, it gives me 500 Internal server error.
But if I change this TWO_TASK value to any particular RAC instance sid, I am able to see all responsibility in Roles and Permission tab. This seems that BI Publisher makes jdbc connection url to database on the fly by reading DB_HOST, dB_Port and TWO_TASK parametes from dbc file and due to this my BI Publisher is single point of failure if the RAC instance goes down which I mentioned in DBC file. Even though E-Business Suite is in HA, BI publisher is not taking advantage of this HA db.
Any one has idea how to over come this situation.

You can try for a luck by posting the thread in BI Publisher Section of this Forum..

Oracle Forms loading slower with Sun JRE in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i

Hi,
After Deploying Sun JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i (Note 290807.1) we find that Oracle Forms are loading slower than using Jinitiator.
Also the PDF reports are opening in a minimized fashion. Meaning the PDF reports are opening correctly in new browser window (as expected) but is minimized.
Customer is not willing to go live with Sun JRE due to these issues.
Plz advice is there is any additional configuration I need to do.
Rgds,
Thiru

When the JRE was installed/configured on the workstations was the jar cache placed on a LAN drive instead of the local drive? We have experienced poor performance with both the JRE and Jinitiator when the Workstation Sysadmins configured the jar cache to be located on a LAN drive. Also is the size of the jar cache on the workstation sufficient to hold all of your required jar files. It could be downloading the jar files all the time.
Overall our performance with the JRE is comparible to the Jinitiator.
Sorry I have not experienced the problem that you are having with you pdf reports so I can't provide any comments on it.
