Hi,
Oracle Database or for that matter any Oracle technology products are licensed using 2 metrics
1) Named user plus
2) Processor(CPU)
Named user plus can be used when the number of users accesing the database can be easily identified or counted.
Processor based licensing is done when there are unlimited number of user accessing the database /application
eg: Internet based application where a count on the number of users is not possible.
If one has valid license's and is under proper support from Oracle one NEED NOT pay extra for the new versions that are released by Oracle.
Hence you should ensure that the licenses are renewed year on year so that you are eligilble for updates/ upgrade as an when released by Oracle.
Thanks,
BT.

Custom RTF templates in Oracle Core Contracts ..

Hello:
We want to create custom RTF templates in Oracle Core Contracts along with custom data templates.
We do not want to use XSL-FO templates since we are finding this too complex to work with ... also the fact that the XML data is being generated by some internal OAF processes that we cannot control.
This is unnecessarily too complex for us.
Can we create our own reporting using XML -Publisher and integrate it in the system ?
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated ... Yesh

Srini:
I did read those pages and unless I am missing something .. it is basically saying the follwing:
Copy the seeded XSL-FO templates and make changes to them and then upload them back. I have no real access to the xml data since it is somehow pre-generated. I do not have a choice of using RTF templates along with the ease of Word based formatting.
The above process goes against the way in which we can write our own reports in XMLP:
(a) Create our own data templates (use our own SQL)
(b) Create our own layout templates (using RTF or XSl_FO)
So I am stuck into undertsanding .... OAF, Java API's ,etc that I should not have to understand to generate a report ...

Sales Contracts

dear all,
I want to ask a simple question.
Can we transport from one system i.e from lets say customer system to a new customer system CLOSED or expired SALES contracts?
what i mean I have moved 1000 Sales contracts using LSMW from system R19 and trapsorted into new customer system C19, the SALES contracts which in the R19 system had dates which were and had expired, but when the contracts moved into C19 the dates are totally different, in SALES contracts pricing date, and coindition records/
I want to know whether its worth moving expired contracts, but surely I should be able to move expired contracts from one system to another and they should be identical in both system like SALES CONTRACTS START AND END DATE, PRICINg DATE?
I dont know whether there has been an issue with the LSMW tool, Is this a functional problem?
so if anyone can advice, whether SALES contracts in SAP can be moved from one system to another regadless of the contract being expired?
My second point, is that my CONDITION RECORDS of pricing have dofferent dates too, they are not the same in the new system, which means the NET VALUE of the contract in the new system isnt the same as the net value in the old system?
thanks

You can find the script for all the API's in oracle Metalink.

Sales Contract - Contract Data Tab - Cancellation of a Sales Contract

Hello All,
I am trying to understand how the Cacellation of a Contract works. Currently we have setup Control Cancellation via configuration.
First Issue: When I can cancel a Sales Contract - It does change the Contract end date to what i have input. But in document flow it shows "open" status.
Second issue: If even though I have all the fields populated for cancellation. I am still able to create a Sales Order against that Contract.
Configuration Control Cancellation: 1. Have defined the Cancellation Reason. 2. Have defined Cancellation Procedures. 3. Have defined Cancellation Rules. 4. Haved Assigned Cancellation Rules & Cancellation Procedures.
Workout around solution: If I reject the line item it does close out the Contract and in Document flow it sets the status to "Completed"
My thoughts were on Cancellation was that if I cancel a Contract shouldn't it close out the Contract and in document flow should set the status to complete? Am I wrong? Do I have to use rejection at the line item and cancellation procedure?
Thank you in advance for any inputs on this issue.
Thank you,
Nav

HI,
this is to inform you that,
1.a. yes it is.
2.a. it will throw you a warning message before creating a sales order against contract make it from warning to error message.
3.a. this is a development for making the status completed for this you need to check the tables - VBUK, VBUP & VBFA.
NOTE: dont use contract is completed status for your requriment.
hope this is clears your issue

Dynamic sales contract in iStore R12

Hi All,
I am working on Oracle iStore R12 Application.
I tried to get the dynamic sales contract in R12 but I have only the basic ideas,If any one can help me please...
Thanks,
Gopi

Hi Srini,
Thanks for your response.
You have mentioned that for achieving this we would need to build/ configure custom collection process - do you mean that we can configure (I mean setups) collection process in OIC to achieve this ? Would it involve custom code development in contracts and/or OIC ?
It would be great if you can provide more detail on this custom process.
Thanks UtC

Oracle Sales and Sales Online Modules (Differences)

Hi,
We are planning to impment to Oracle Sales module .I want to understand the differneces between Oracle Sales and Sale online Module? I know that Oracle Sales new one.

But Oracle Sales (Sales User Responsibility) has only Dashboard.How to get Sales Online Home Page or Similar page for Oracle Sales.
Request you to help on this.
Thanks in Advance

ASF is JTA/JTT based and so follows the logic and process flavours of Telesales - imagine a HTML version of Telesales and you get the picture. ASN is OA Framework and does not follow the logic so strongly.
The main point is that ASF is 10 years old and mature - you have a lot of functionality in standard but very little flexibility (you can't even hide a field). ASN is completely the opposite, you have very little functionality in standard but infinite flexibility because it is OAF based. However, there is less functionality in ASN than there was in ASF and so you will find that you WILL have to develop stuff in ASN that exists as standard in ASF.
We started here with ASF but then there was talk of an R12 upgrade and so we switched to ASN - thjs was painful. However, so little funtionality exists in ASN compared to ASF that we have gone back to ASF, even though it is not shipped with R12. This is an indication of how little there is in ASN compared to ASF.
The biggest differences for us is the lack of personalized searches for sales reps and managers, the other is the crazy reduction in functionality for sales credit at Oppty line level. ASF leaves ASN standing for stuff like this. The personalized searches are returned as tables thus this functionality effectively allow users great power to interrogate AND report their opportunities and leads (they can even export to excel as standard). This level of reporting does not exist in ASN and it is a massive differentiator.
If you go ASN then DO NOT show your client ASF first. They won't believe you when you tell them that ASN is supposed to be the latest version.

How to restrict Material Class in Sales Contract Doc

Hi,
I need to restrict Material Class in Sales order based on Item catagory, Material group4 and Sales contract Document type.
If the above 3 fields having a particular value then the system should restrict all the other classes of that material and display only a particular class and it's related characteristics.
If any one come across such a senario then pklease let me know.
Regards
Ajay

Hi,
You have to make few configuration settings before you actually restrict at the object level. The solution is clearly discussed in the below thread:

Error while running Oracle Sales Dashboard in JDeveloper

Hello,
I am trying to extend the "Update Customer" page in Oracle Sales and have my new custom region ready, which I intend to plugin through personalization in the "Update Customer" page in Oracle Sales.
Before I can do that I need to be able to run the Oracle Sales Dashboard through Jdev. I have added the following standard Oracle BC4J packages to my project:
oracle.apps.asn.common.customer.schema.server
oracle.apps.asn.common.fwk.server
oracle.apps.asn.common.schema.server
oracle.apps.asn.dashboard.server
oracle.apps.jtf.cac.schema.server
and the DashboardPG.xml. In addition I have the JTF, ASN, ASF, AR and AS schemas added as libraries to my project.
I am trying to run this page through Jdev and then following navigation path to the "Update Customer" page:
- Click on Customer in the Shortcuts link on the Sales Dashbaord
- Search for customer ..the search fetches the results w/o any problem.
- Click on customer to view the customer details
- Click on the "Update Customer" button.....................It is here that I get the following error.
This is clean (new project) with ONLY Oracle objects in it. I am only trying to run the Sales from Jdev first.
Does anyone know what am I missing? Why am I getting the following error when I try to update the customer details?
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Partner redetermination in CRM for the replicated Sales contract from ECC

Hello Friends,
We are facing a typical issue, Our sales process is, we are creating Sales contract in ECC and replicating it in CRM. Problem area is we want to determine the Employee with the Territory ID in the CRM. Issue is the User will not be aware, who is the Employee responsible for the particular Sold to Party at the time of creation in ECC.
Config details:
1. Partner function related to Contracts are
    Sold to Party
    Ship to Party
    Bill to
    Payer
    Employee Responsible
    Employee _ Territory
2. Sales Contract is created in ECC and replicates in to CRM
3. Created Z partrner function for Employee_Territory and access seq assigned is 0030:Preeceding docyment>Territory>User
4. All the Partner function in ECC are determined through the Source as Sold to, except Employee_Terrritory, which is manual
5. Partner function value is manually maintained for Employee_territory in ECC sales contract
6. When replicated to CRM, I want this Employee_Territory to be redetermined based on the Territory attributes like Business partner Zip code
Kindly let me know, how to achieve it through configuration or if there is any BADI which requires minimum development.
Thanks,
Anup Bansal

Hey!
You can use badi COM_PARTNER_DETERM to determine partnter function based on Determination Sources.
You might also use user-defined callback function to realize your business requirement based on event handle technology.
