Oracle Financials Applications
Hi Friends!
I do not know where to put the Oracle Apps related questions hence I am posting my question here. Pleasae bare with me.
In Oracle Apps, I could not find heavily used referential integrity kind of things in the tables used by apps (as far as I know in Manufacturing and purchasing tables). If I am wrong please let me know. I wonder why Oracle does not apply its Integrity concepts in its own product.
Could anyone explain me?
Thanks.Oracle indeed used referential integrity in all its apps including purchasing and manufacturing. A cursory look at the technical refrence manuals of the apps and the way the columns in the tables are inter-dependent showed this, I guess. If perhaps you are interested in some specific type of referential intergrity (which might only be specific to your client/company) then, this is different ball game. You can carefully create this as an extention to your installation instance and if this is of general public importance then make a suggestion to Oracle Applications development group using the appropriate channels.
I hope this helps. -

If you have a fresh database, you can try SYSADMIN and/or OPERATIONS account.

Oracle Financials and Forms Applications Integration
Hi All,
I am new to Oracle financials forums and i have few trivial questions. One of our customer has our forms application now the customer wants to integrate that with ORACLE Financials. Is it possible and if so how, please elaborate or help me with relevant links or examples, URL's, case studies from where i can pick some good approximation about integration.
Our application version 10g Forms application version - 10.1.2.3 running with 10g Database.
1) How this can be done.
2) Are there any past case studies with similar approach which was successfully implemnted.
3) What are the restrictions if this cant be done.
My questions might be quiet trivial. I request the forum users to participate and discuss on this.
Thanks in advanceThanks for the documents.
Yes we have a product running with Forms 11g. So with your experience can you share similar documents or any notes which doesn't supports any of the forms features or compatibility issues which would arise while integrating. Though i understand this is a open ended question at this point in time, just want to grab the knowledge of PRO's like you on this subject. Hope you help me on this. -
Regarding Oracle Application DBA
Hi,
Can u pls tell me is there any difference between Oracle Application DBA or Oracle DBA.Does it have major effect in terms of job post?Eagerly awaiting for ur reply.
Regards,
sudhirVery big difference with respect to training and skills
And Oracle DBA needs to know $ORACLE_BASE and $ORACLE_HOME.
An Apps DBA needs to be familiar with these plus $APPL_TOP, $COMN_TOP, $PROD_TOP, and much much more including Application Servers, JAR files, EAR files, and, again, much much more. -
Difference between Oracle 11i Apps DBA & Oracle Application server 10g DBA
Hi All....
can anyone explain me the *"Difference between Oracle 11i Apps DBA & Oracle Application server 10g DBA"*
Can Oracle 11i Apps DBA work in a Oracle Application server 10g DBA environment.
Regards,Oracle Apps is a suite of financial applications.
Oracle Application server is Oracle's scaled up implementation of Apache or Weblogic or similar products.
While Oracle Apps might use Oracle Application Server as middleware, Oracle Apps is much, much more than Oracle Application Server.
An Oracle Apps DBA is primarily busy on the functional side, and with implementing an ongoing stream of patches ;)
The two functions have almost nothing in common.

Oracle App. DBA:Query
Hi Experts,
I'm a Oracle DBA, however i wanted to know what is the work of oracle application administrator. Can onyone suggests me what in oracle app. i should learn.
Thanks
ShaanCan onyone suggests me what in oracle app. i should learn.An Oracle Applications DBA is very different from a regular Oracle database administrator and requires specialized skills in business administration and Oracle application server architectures. The Oracle Applications DBA job role is less compartmentalized than a traditional Oracle DBA and the Oracle Applications DBA must also have skills in these areas:
- Database Design - Many shops require customized functional extensions and reporting data marts and the Oracle Applications DBA must have outstanding Database design skills.
- Oracle Application Server - The Oracle Applications DBA must understand the internals of the Oracle concurrent manager and understand how to monitor and tune Oracle Applications.
- Functional Expertise - Many shops requires a business degree and a general understanding of the Oracle Applications module. For example, accountants are widely used to support Oracle eBusiness Suite (Oracle Financials), and accountants with an IT background are easily trained in Oracle Applications DBA support.
I have more notes here:

Need to learn Oracle Financials-Need Info
Need to learn Oracle Financials.Anyone with any info.
Please email [email protected]There are so many versions and packages of Oracle. Which one should I learn?
latest version is oracle 10g
but i think you will go oracle 9i rel 2
because all commercial application use oracle 9i database.
Which is the easiest way to get trained and certified? What kind of certification do I need?
you need a oracle 9i dba certification
or may be 9i developer certification
it up to you
but oracle 9i dba is more valuable than developer track
you will learn this from oracle university
excellent oracle material for ocp (but it is too costly also)
http://otn.oracle.com/training/index.html
Or u will read your self
all oracle docs available athttp://otn.oracle.com/documentation/index.html
better you will read first this
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96524/toc.htm

My need: to find a job that was similar to previous ones that I had. My previous job function was to develop database applications using Visual FoxPro,
in oracle ,oracle developer is used for such type of application
its front end tool
gui tool like v.foxpro
and oracle database is backend tool for store information
i think v.fox pro perform both work as frontend as backend
in oracle
oracle developer is front end(old name is D2k)
oracle database is back end
i am also a developer but now find job as dba.
i am always intersting in DBA . but in IT market
there is no entry level DBA job and
its very difficult to go for dba job without experience.
so my suggestion is
read your self

and find a job on oracle platform
BEST OF LUCK AND I HOPE YOU WILL GET A BETTER JOB SOON
