R12 E Commerce Setup Migrations

Hi
Is there any available tool to automate the migration of the e-Commerce Setups from one instance to another
Thanks
Anugrah

Hi Anugrah,
Unfortunately there isn't a facility to allow a customer iStore site to migrate from one environment to another (e.g. Test to Productions) easily. Currently the staging and migration of iStore environments are done manually, and some installations have utilized their own change control systems and adopted their own naming conventions for JSP customization and iStore content to make the environment promotion process more managable.
With that said, there are concurrent programs that allow customers to perform site administration around migrating template mappings between instances (import and export). You can refer to the iStore Implementation & Admin. Guide under the iStore Template Mapping Import / Export Concurrent Programs.

Bob

Setups migration from one instance to another

Can any one please tell me how to migrate AME (Oracle Approval Management) setups and GL Setups?
We are using AME.B.(11.5.10.2). There will be quite a few of these setups required, and migrating by hand in all the eBS instances will be difficult.
Is there any other way (API/other tools) to achieve this? Can we use FNDLOAD?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

R12: Is Inventory setup mandatory for Operating Unit setup?

Hello,
I am doing the setup of an operating unit for a business on a fresh R12 install.
Is the setting up of the Inventory Organization (with all the info like e.g material account, cost of goods sold etc) is mandatory even if the business will not setup inventory module?
Vik

Hello Manish,
In the example you gave, when talking about
Jain, Manish wrote:
..the system specifically ask you to enter the Inventory Organization field with the inv org you have defined.are you referring to the setup from Financial Options --> Supplier-Purchasing tab --> where we have a field "Inventory Organization"?
This is not a required field and can left null.
Or If we do not have the Operating Unit with "Inventory Organization" as classification, an error will popup when setting up payables?
The problem is that, we have to ask the client about the accounting key for material, COGS etc... and he want to know why we need this since he does not use Inventory module.

Yosemite setup, migration assistants and timemachine restore didn't transfer ANY files to SSD

Hi,
I'm at a total loss after 2 days of trying to upgrade my hard disk to an SSD in my Macbook Pro.
I have tried Yosemite Setup assistant, the Migration Assistant in Utilities and Restore from Time Machine.
All 3 processes run for 5 hours and say they are transferring information with a progress bar and finish saying my mac is ready to use, but none of these processes actually transfer a single file.
At the end of 2 days, they have just created a new empty user. No user files, no applications, nothing.
Please can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Here is what I did in detail
17" late 2011 MBP
original 750gb HDD is full.
bought a Samsung 850 EVO 1TB SSD and a caddy to replace the optical drive
Left original HDD in place so I am transferring files between 2 internal drives (HDD->SSD)
installed the SSD and formatted default option Mac OS X Extended (Journaled)
rebooted into repair partition (10.9)
Installed OS X on the SSD
Setup assistant told me it could not transfer data because the HDD had a newer OS
Skipped transfer and installed 10.10.2 Yosemite on SSD
Yosemite successfully installed and working on SSD
Opened Migration assistant on SSD in Utilities and selected everything to transfer from internal HDD to SSD
Migration Assistant runs for 5 hours and says it is complete - but not a single new file has been transferred onto the SSD!!
Read that Migration Assistant is less reliable than Setup Assistant
Follow a guide to Boot into Safe Mode on SSD, delete user folders and setupdone file to trigger setup again.
Restart SSD and use Setup Assistant as though new installation to transfer files from HDD.
Setup Assistant runs for 5 hours transferring files from internal HDD and says it is complete - but not a single new file has been transferred onto the SSD!!
Reboot into repair partition (10.10) on SSD
Erase SSD and install Yosemite again
Setup Assistant runs for 5 hours transferring files from internal HDD and says it is complete - but not a single new file has been transferred onto the SSD!!
Reboot into repair partition (10.10) on SSD
Erase SSD and install Yosemite again
Setup Assistant runs for 5 hours and says it is complete - but not a single new file has been transferred onto the SSD!!
Reboot into repair partition (10.10) on SSD
check HDD - repair disk found B-tree node and leaf count errors fixed disk OK and repair permissions some needed fixing
check SSD - repair permissions
Reboot into repair partition (10.10) on SSD
Erase SSD and install Yosemite again
This time connect an external HDD with Time Machine backup.
Setup Assistant runs for 5 hours transferring files from external HDD Time Machine Backup and says it is complete - but not a single new file has been transferred onto the SSD!!
2 days later I feel as empty as my new SSD: 981 GB free of 999GB
Please help
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the reply
I just used Carbon Copy Cloner while waiting and it seems to have worked, except it cannot create the restore partition.
If I try again using Restore in Disk Utility in the 10.9 Recovery Partition, will it create the Recovery Partition on the SSD as well?
I was surprised that having installed Yosemite (10.10.2) on the original HDD, that the restore partition on that volume was 10.9 - how can I get my data and a 10.10 recovery partition onto the SSD?
Thanks

EBS R12 Shared Printer Setup

Hi guys
We are using EBS R12 (12.0.6) and the environment is linux 64bit (RHEL 5.x). Right now all our concurrent jobs are producting .pdf outputs for Sales Orders, RMA etc. Our trading (retail) sector has a performance issue due to the time waiting for the pdf to popup and then to print etc.
Hence we are analyzing the possibilities of sending the outputs straight to the printers (at present no printers are configured) to avoid the above said situation.
Most of our showrooms are using shared printers (LQ-850, Epson dot matrix) which are shared minimum between two salesmen. Please let me know once the printers are setup with the application, how the print jobs will be completed. ie, whether the application will automatically popup the print dialog box with default printer selected etc.
Thanks and regards,
raj

I fixed this by choosing another printer protocoll by printer setup. HP protocoll fixed it. In the server manager I chose IPP. An everything worked fine after that.

DFS New Setup migrating from 2003 R2 file server to 2012 Server STD

We currently have a 2003 R2 flat file server with multiple layers of nested network shares with over 2.5TB of data. We want to migrate to DFS on 2012 Server standard version with deduplication enabled. We have never worked with DFS and deduplication and
any white paper on DFS and deduplication would be greatly appreciated. Not finding anything on DFS step by step for 2012 and in particular migrating from 2003 file share to 2012 server DFS.

Thank you for the URL to your DFS write up. This was very helpful in my research of DFS. I have a couple of questions. Do I have to start DFS with two servers? I completely understand why you should have more than one server in the DFS pool (high
availability) but is it necessary? Also after setting up the two 2012 Servers with DFS, namespaces, and new shares managed by DFS manager, how do we migrate (move or copy) the existing shares to new server without losing the permissions? From what I've read
in your write-up all end users with have read and write permissions and admins have full. Also is there a best practice on how nested the shares should be setup within DFS? From looking at your write up the shares are one folder deep only. At this
company I'm migrating from a file server with shares 3-8 layers deep build up over the last 20 years.

R12 Order Management Setup and API for Pick Release

Hi All,
I am doing pick release using Release Sales Order form of Order Management of Oracle Apps R12. Pick Release process is going fine , but the the status of lines are not getting updated. If we explicitly do reservations before pick release and then do pick release from Release Sales Order form, line status is being updated as pick released. If we do pick release from Shipping Transactions Form, then there is no need of explicit item reservations. Please suggest me, is there any setup steps to be done, so that i will tell the functional guys to do it.
Also I am executing the WSH_PICKING_BATCHES API for create batch and release batch, the same thing i.e the pick release process is working fine but the line status is not getting updated.
Is Release Sales Order form and Shipping Transactions Form uses different API's to do the pick release?.
If we have to do explicit Item Reservations, what is the API used?
Thanks and Regards,
Mahesh
Edited by: magu on May 1, 2009 11:59 AM

I figured out the problem. In Release Sales Order Form, we have to uncheck the Prior Reservations Only check box, so that the items will be first reserved and then pick release.
Thanks and Regards,
Mahesh

Possible to restore iTunes safely to a new mac (from time machine backup) without using setup/migration assistant?

Hello all,
I have just acquired a new MacBook which I want to set up completely fresh. The only data I really need to restore/copy to it, besides a few document folders, is the iTunes library from my existing iMac. The iTunes library has been backed up using time machine on the iMac (using a portable drive). I’ve heard it might be possible for me to plug the time machine backup into the new MacBook and then option-click the time machine icon in order to 'browse other backup disks' and then restore iTunes. Would this work and would all my devices still sync with iTunes? I’m just a bit nervous because apple has migration assistant and setup assistant for doing this sort of thing - I just really don’t want to use them because the only thing I want on my new MacBook from the whole of the time machine backup is literally the iTunes library. I don’t want to start restoring user accounts which you must do with the assistants.
Thank you.

Thank you ever so much for the replies. Just one thing: the link you provided seems to discuss restoring individual items on the computer for which a backup has been made. On my macbook I can't click "enter time machine" which I'm guessing is because the time machine backup is for my old iMac (hence my comment about control clicking the menu bar).

Setup / migration assistant on emac

Recently purchased macbook running os 10.5.4 with an intel processor. I am now trying to migrate applications to my emac running 10.1.5 using setup assistant or migration assistant. I cant seem to find setup or migration assistant on my emac in order for me to do this.
Any ideas on where im going wrong would be greatly appreciated.

I cant seem to find setup or migration assistant on my emac in order for me to do this.
10.1 on your eMac does not have Migration Assistant. That application is only on your 10.5 Leopard machine. The reason you can't find it is because it doesn't exist.
Also I seriously doubt if anything on the new MacBook would run on your old eMac 10.1 anyway.

On AIX -- tryint go setup migrated c/s enviroment? Where do I start?

I’ve been tasked to do a proof of concept (poc) –
I need to migrate a couple of our existing client server (c/s) forms to this new AIX platform (one or two forms – with menus and toolbar icons).
So far I’ve completed the AIX install (I hope correctly – since it was really two installs)
Now I believe I need to start setting up the forms environment with variable for UI_ICON and NLS_LANG and FORMS??_DEFAULTFONT. I used to setup a path on PC’s registry for forms60_path=g:\server1\menus;g:\server1\LIB60;g:\server1\forms60 to point to our, menus, library files and tool bar graphic and pll files and fmb and fmx files. Unfortunately, I don’t know where or with what file to begin with.
I believe I’ve got the compile command down ( I know I’ll have to FTP from PC’s to UNIX and do the re-compile and make sure all the paths are changed from NT pc speak to unix paths.
(please let me know if this is wrong):
ORACLE_HOME/bin/f60gen module=ICQTYUH2.fmb userid=apps/test99 output_file=ICQTYUH2.fmx module_type=form batch=no compile_all=yes
How do I let the browser know where everything is -- do I make manual entires in a formsweb.cfg file or forms.conf file?? Any help will be appreciated – or any metalink documents or notes or “how to’s” or getting started docs etc.
I’m using Sun Java Plugins on the POC machines aka – j2se runtime environment 5.0 release 13 and also most PC’s have jinitiator 1.3.1 on them and java6 update 2 and 7.
Might be in over my head – especially since I’m not a developer – but only somewhat proficient in the web server environment setup. – Eventually, I’ll be asking this forum for help in sizing our servers -- more memory or CPU – might have to ask about web cache also.
Thanks for the help.

thanks for the info
Tons of stuff at this link.
Can you assit by narrowing it down a bit -- I did get the Migrating Client/Server To the Web -- doc from april 2002 but it doesn't assist with quesitons
like on variables to modify in the conf files.
I'm now just wanting to see the test.fmx form that comes out of box and having an issue brining it up -- must be a service not started or something:
can you say if a syntax below is wrong or not?
http://europa.starship.com:7778/forms/frmservlet?form=test.fmx&config=webutil
gives 500 Internal Server Error from Internet Explorer
Forms Servlet Error.
Missing or invalid value for baseHTML parameter.
Please check the servlet configuration to make sure this value specifies a valid file

Failure: Setup/Migration Assistant Cannot Find Volume

I first posted this problem in an e-list. The only replies were manual work-arounds.
I want to move files, applications, user accounts, and settings from my desktop machine to an iBook. I know how to move most of these things the old, manual way by dragging, but it would be neat to use the Assistant.
On my iBook G4/1.33GHz which came with OS X 10.4.2, I reinstalled the OS (Erase and Install). The initial Setup Assistant did not see the "Main Drive" on my QuickSilver G4/733MHz running the retail version of Panther updated to 10.3.9. "Main Drive" is the only volume on an add-on internal Seagate hard drive, and it is the one I want to use for transferring files to the iBook. Setup Assistant saw all three volumes on the original IBM hard drive.
Migration Assistant is no better. I noticed in repeated attempts, that the three IBM volumes show up in the iBook's Finder, but Migration Assistant offers only one of them for selection to use, and not always the same volume each time. Would that be normal?
The iBook's Disk Utility does not see "Main Drive," but it sees the IBM volumes. On the QuickSilver, the Disk Utility in one of the IBM's volumes sees "Main Drive."
With searches using "Setup Assistant" and "Migration Assistant," I can find nothing relevant in scanning over 200 of Apple's support pages. I went through Apple's "Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4: Transferring data with Setup Assistant / Migration Assistant FAQ" at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25773. The QS is not a server, for the purposes of volume naming conventions at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107316
FIRST: How can I get Migration Assistant to see "Main Drive"?
OK, if there is no easy way to make "Main Drive" reveal itself, I can move files from Home>Documents and I can pick and choose from Applications and Applications Support.
For e-mail, would I move the entire folder at Home>Library>Mail?
What else would I need to move for user accounts and network settings?
iBook G4, QuickSilver G4, PB G3 Lombard Mac OS X (10.4.2) QuickSilver has 10.3.9, Lombard has 9.2.1

I assume that "Main Drive" has a bootable OS on it.
If not, then the Migration Assistant won't see it.
Also, how is the "Main Drive" hooked up? IIRC, it's
through a 3rd party card, it may not work. Does it
show up on the desktop when you mount the QS to the
iBook in target disk mode?
"Main Drive" is bootable in 10.3.9. It is on the same ATA-4 bus as the IBM drive. But it does not show up on the iBook desktop in TDM.
If it has a bootable OS installed and shows up on the
iBook when hooked up in target disk mode, the first
thing to do is boot the QS with the Panther install
disk, launch Disk Utility, and repair permissions and
repair the "Main Drive." If that passes the repair
cycle, then hook it up to the iBook in TDM, and try
the Migration Assistant again.
Having just run Disk Utility Repair Disk Permissions from "Main Drive" after installing the Security Update 2006-004 on it, I tried TDM again from the iBook. There was no change.
I always run Repair Disk Permissions from the Disk Utility on the booted hard drive as advised elsewhere so that it is aware of all the Apple updates and third party applications.
Should I still run Repair Disk Permissions from the Panther Install CD? This is safe to do?
Thanks.

Setup/Migration - Should one bother w/Tiger- Lion?

Recently bought my first new laptop in almost nine years. I'm hesitant to try either setup or migration for several reasons:
- old laptop is a Titanium G4 running Tiger + Jaguar
- concerns about past disk errors and permissions issues; the G4 works fine right now, but don't want to carry over any problems
- virtually all applications are presumably not useable on Intel MBP/could be added via web or new purchases
- one reason to get the new laptop was to start fresh; most of what I want to transfer eventually are PDF files, music files, text files and the like; simple enough to move manually?
The big question is, will I miss out by not using Setup Assistant for Lion if I do eventually want to have the following appear on the new machine:
- calendar, mail, address book, bookmarks
- music files (iTunes, but also my professional recording AIFFs)
- text docs etc.
Related to the first category in particular is a question about my iPod touch — will it help facilitate transfer of such files? iCal no longer syncs with the cloud under Tiger, but I have everything updated on the pod. Will I be able, either directly or via web, be able to sync or transfer those items directly to the new MBP? Or will the process of updating (finally) to a new iOS update destroy everything on the pod?
Finally, there is also a time capsule. Obviously I don't run Time Machine on Tiger, but it's an external HD which I can use with Apple's Backup. Would it make a useful transfer station for either Setup or manual transfer of files?

That would be tedious, and a bit cumbersome. Since the Plan info for Backup wouldn't be on the new Mac, unless you manually copy it there, you'd have to use this workaround to restore each Plan: Restoring backed-up files without a backup plan, and you might run into permissions problems.
Once you get your stuff transferred, and are sure it's all there and working properly, consider using Time Machine. It's far superior to Backup.
You might want to review the Time Machine Tutorial, and perhaps browse Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.

Oracle R12 Payables Manager SETUP Payment Terms problem

Hi, I want to ask whether someone can resolve the following problem when I am trying to setup the Payment terms in payables manager:
"Oracle: error - 20001: ORA-20001: APP-FND-02901: You do not have access privileges to any operating unit. Please check if your profile option MO: Security Profile includes any operating unit or the profile option MO: Operating Unit is set. has been detected in MO_GLOBAL.INIT."
The Primary and Secondary Ledgers are setup with all statuses on completed (green checked). There is a Business group associated with a Operating Unit , as well as all responsibilities are linked and on visible and editable.
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
not having more than one operating unit does not mean that you are not using Multi Org, as long as you have a BG,LE, Ledger, OU ... it is a multi org environment.
You do not need to define a security profile for MOAC ... you have to select the value for MO:Security profile which would be your Business Group ...(If you are using the seeded one, it would be Setup Business Group)
The place to tell whether your environment is multi org or not, is during the installation of the application i guess...
Now, you not perform any additional setup for making the security profile available ... your BG would be your security profile value.....
Switch responsibility to System Administrator, navigate to Profile > System , query for your responsibility name and the profile option MO: Security Profile, and set the value (i.e. your business group) name at the site level ...
Re-test the issue ....
Regards,
Ivruksha

E-mail accounts setup - migrating from classic & webstar to panther

I used workgroup manager to set up accounts, enabled e-mail & selected server but when I use system admin to look at the mail email accounts none show up also I can't see any users for the ftp server. The appropriate domains have been created. I've read every thing I can get my hands on yet I'm missing something. I'm finally upgrading my server to os x from classic running webstar4.5. Any help would be appreciated. John

E-mail accounts will only show up in Server Admin once they have either received mail or been accessed via IMAP.

R12 E-Commerce Gateway. POO and POI sample files?

Hello!
Can anybody put here sample files for POO (ORDERS 850) and POI (ORDERS 850)? Just wanna see them. I exported POO file according to the standard settings for file, but I can't to import it (according to the standard settings for file). And this is a little bit strange for me. May be I didn't understand something.

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.
