R12 upgrade - why were RA views obsoleted?

One observation is that 11i tables like PO_VENDORS and GL_SETS_OF_BOOKS have been made into views in R12. Even standard modules code in AP and AR use these views. So existing custom objects referencing them need not be changed, especially if they are just getting simple columns like VENDOR_NAME or SET_OF_BOOKS_ID.
** Please let me know if that is not correct **. Has Oracle provided any direction for these objects? Will they drop these, say, in R12.2?
Of course, new customizations being written should use AP_SUPPLIERS and GL_LEDGERS.
But RA objects like RA_CUSTOMERS, RA_ADDRESSES, RA_SITE_USES, etc. are not usable in R12 at all.
Why did Oracle, in its infinite wisdom, not continue to have these as views (they were views in 11.5.10.2)? It causes so much work (painful, no value add) for companies to change all their custom objects to reference the new R12 HZ replacements. ** Does anyone know the reason? **

Please see the following links/docs.

Why does NFS umounts itself during R12 upgrade

Dears,
We have a problem in NFS. When our oracle team in upgrading the oracle to R12, after a certain step the NFS umounts, from the client side the error as below,
Jun 23 10:16:53 bananadev01 nfs: [ID 733954 kern.info] NOTICE: [NFS4][Server: appledev01][Mntpt: /u02]NFS server appledev01 not responding; still trying

Any help ?

Hi Murali,
We have a 11.5.10.2 instance with 10.2.0.5 database and we are Planning to upgrade the database to 11.2.0.3 during our upgrade R12.1.1, as per the note 761570.1, we have the Patch C and Path D available to us. We have decided to use the path C i.e upgrade the database to 11.2.0.3 during the R12 upgrade itself and no two downtime windows. As per this note 761570.1, in path c If the database upgrade is part of the R12 upgrade, perform all the steps in the Interoperabity Notes except the following steps:
Verify software versions
Run adgrants.sql
Implement and run Autoconfig
Re-create grants and synonyms
Restart Applications server processes
Apply Oracle Human Resources (HRMS) patch 7721754
so does that mean we don't have to apply any patches mentioned under Verify software versions like Interoperability patch , ATG Patch 7456837 etc.. on 11i ?
If you are planning to upgrade the database in the same downtime window of R12 upgrade, then you do not need to apply the patches under "verify software versions" section in the 11i doc. However, you need to consider applying the patches under the same section in (Interoperability Notes EBS R12 with Database 11gR2 [ID 1058763.1]). Those patches should be applied before you release the R12 instance to the users.
Thanks,

After R12 Upgrade: No records in many of the tables.

Hi all,
After R12 upgrade, we found there are no records in many tables. For example AR_BATCHES_V.
What could be the probable causes?
Also, note that there are still some concurrent requests running.

Hi,
I'm a bit late to the party in this thread, but:
Are most of the unpopulated tables related to Financials? With the introduction of E-Business Tax (ZX) and Sub-Ledger Accounting in R12, some data seems to have been moved to other tables and schemas. For example, we had some reports that needed to be rewritten for R12 because some Receivables tables and views were empty after the upgrade. I don't get into the functional side of things very often, so I don't know if AR is similarly affected.
Sorry I don't have much detail to offer, but maybe this will give you a starting point for further research.

Discoverer Reports does not work in Multi-org Environment after R12 Upgrade

Discoverer Reports does not work in Multi-org Environment after R12 Upgrade. Created a simple report using the below query:
SELECT po_header_id, segment1, type_lookup_code
FROM po_headers
WHERE segment1 = '5000002'
Query works perfectly fine; when i set the ORG_CONTEXT in the database using the command:
EXEC mo_global.set_policy_context('S',129)
But the report doesn't fetch any data when ran from an Org based responsibility. We've ensured that the MO: Operting Unit is set accurately and general Oracle reports (PLSQL Program OR XML Publisher) are working perfectly fine.
===========
I followed the steps provided in Metalink Note: 732826.1 - It works for some responsibilities where the MO: Security Profile is not set; but fails for those responsibilities where the MO: Security Profile is set.
I am looking for specific solution that works irrespective of either the MO: Operating Unit profile is set of not.
Please suggest. Appreciate your response.
Thanks,

I am able to create the receipt, when i remove this profile option.

please check note( Supplier Registration Page Gets Error java.sql.SQLException: ORA-20001 )
Note:330350.1 althogh its for 11i but the cuz seems right
Cause
The root cause is that FND.H changes fnd_user_resp_groups from a table to a view which return
end_date as year 9999 instead of the value of null in the underlying data. The code in
confirm_has_resp expects the end_date of the pos guest user resp to user guest to be null, and if
not, trying to insert the assignment and fail (because the assignment already exists and active).

Business Event during R12 upgrade (11.5.10.2 - 12.1.3)

Best practices for R12 upgrade says to disable custom tiggers and business events.
Disabling custom Triggers is fine , understood it.
However the phrase "and business events." is a bit confusing for my customer.
Though IMO ,it means disabling custom business events and not all ,however he is keen to know whether this means
disabling standard business events as well.
Also since we are bringing down all the services including WF services ,how can Business events be processed ?
Moreover as far as I know ,enabling maintenance mode shuts down the Workflow Business Events System which means no business event will be processed.
Thus why it is written in most of the Best Practices documents to disable business events ?
thanks for your help.
-SK

I have never needed to disable business events in all the upgrades I did from 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.3 and I believe it is not mentioned in these docs (I understand it is mentioned in the best practices, but I believe it is not required).

Hardware Requirements for R12 upgrade

Hi
We are planning to perform R12 upgrade(11.5.10.2 to R12) on our dual node Test servers.
Following is the H/W configurations
Node 1:DB + CCM + Admin
=>Database size is approx.38-40GB,2 CPU's & 2GB RAM
Node 2:Form + Web server
=>2 CPU's & 2GB RAM
Is this a sufficient configuration for R12 upgrade.
Thanks
Shekhar

In general, you need to make the best of what you have on hand. If it were me, I would double or triple your RAM especially on your admin/DB tier, unless you only have 2-5 users.
Fast storage will make a huge impact on runtime of the upgrade driver.

Why were podcasts removed from the stable Music app?

Why were podcasts removed from the stable Music app? If it was absolutely necessary to have a seperate Podcasts app, why couldn't we have kept the iOS 6 option of leaving podcasts in the Music app if we didn't download the Apple Podcasts app. Since the iPhone 3g I have never had an issue with the Music app, it's always be reliably stable, yet it's been problem after problem after being forced to download the Podcasts app after updating to iOS 7.
1) Podcasts app, every version since being forced to download it with iOS 7, has never synced correctly with iTunes. My phone is always missing podcasts that I've set to sync and want to listen to when I'm away from my computer. Seems like this should be a basic function (one that worked flawlessly when podcasts were in the Music app)
2) Since the last two updates, it has been CRASH AD INFINITUM. Not a single podcast will play for more than a second before the app crashes to springboard. The newest update that supposedly 'fixed' the stability issue fixed nothing for me. What is the point of all the new features if the app won't stay open? I don't want new features, I just want to sync podcasts from iTunes and then listen to them on my phone. Podcasts really should be that simple!
I've killed Apple Podcasts app from the multitasking view. Restarted app. Crash.
I've deleted Apple Podcasts app, and all data, re-installed, and synced. Crash.
I've deleted Apple Podcasts app, and all data, re-installed, did not sync, downloaded a podcast from within the app. Crash.
I've restored my phone, only installed the Podcasts app, downloaded a podcast from within the app. Crash.
Bought a paid third-party app, downloaded a podcast from with the app. Enjoyed listening to a podcast.

Hi,
This is a Google problem - they have purposefully removed the app.
Sorry about that!

Oracle R12 Upgrade - Estimated Downtime

We are midsize company upgrading from Oracle Financials R11i (11.5.9) to R12. Our consulting vendor performing the upgrade has estimated 8 days to complete the upgrade. Our DB size is less than 150gb and we have a very vanilla environment (only 14 CEMLI's).
Having managed extremely complex SAP upgrades in the past, cutting over during long weekends and thus maximum downtimes of 72hrs I am blown away by an estimated 8 days of downtime in this case.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of upgrade and the expected downtime windows to be incurred by the business?

Hi,
8 calendar days of downtime seems an excessive estimate for the what you've described, though of course there are a lot of factors that influence this. You'll have a much better idea of what to expect once you've performed a dry run (or five :-) ) on a test system. Has the consulting vendor offered any sort of justification for the estimate? That is, are they pointing to anything in your environment that makes this upgrade particularly long? What sort of hardware are you using? Are you migrating to a new platform during this upgrade? Does all of the work they're estimating for truly need to be done during the outage window, or is there some that can be done before or after? What does their estimate look like if you only convert some Financials data during the upgrade, and do the rest post-upgrade?
I can only offer the following data point, though I suspect that there are others on this forum with more varied R12 upgrade experience:
Our upgrade (11.5.10.2->12.0.3) was for a system with a similar data footprint (slightly smaller, in fact), and similarly vanilla environment (customizations limited to reports). We were running on mid-range hardware (two-node system, 2-CPU db server, single-CPU app server). We started our upgrade on a Friday at 6 PM, and finished sometime late the following Sunday evening...less than 72 hours. Granted, this is not an apples-to-apples comparison: you're starting at 11.5.9, not 11.5.10.2. Then again, I assume you'll also be going directly to 12.0.4. We had to add time to our upgrade to apply the 12.0->12.0.3 upgrade driver.
If we were discussing this over a beer, I'd be tempted to claim there's some [Scotty Factor|http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ScottyFactor|Beam me up!] going on here. Since this is a public forum, however, I would never be so woefully unprofessional, and merely suggest that you request clarification from your vendor on the justification for their estimate. :-)
Regards,
John P.

11i to R12 upgrade

Hi,
I am doing test upgrade 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1
I am following R12 upgrade guide and 1211 install guide. I finished rapid install step "Creating the Upgrade File System". Now my next step is to perform upgrade (apply upgrade drivers).
It is not clear in the documents and patch readme if I need to apply patches to 11i APPL_TOP or newly created R12 file system. Can somebody help me?
Thanks.

Which document says I need to apply only database driver? So far I have reviewed upgrade guide Part No. E14010-01.In the Same upgrade guide part NO:E14010-01 check the page no:73 it given as follows:
Under Section 3 "Upgrading to Release 12.1.1"
10. Run the American English upgrade patch driver (required)
Applies to 11i release level: All
TUMS step key: N/A
To bring your database to the full Oracle Applications Release 12.1.1 level, use AutoPatch to run the (American English) unified driver (u6678700.drv). It is located in $AU_TOP/patch/115/driver.
Run the driver on the administration server node on your Release 12.1.1 APPL_TOP
using the following commands:
$ adpatch options=nocopyportion,nogenerateportion
Do I need to start database in new R12 file system.Yes. All the steps mentioned under Section 3.9 onwards need to perform in the new 12.1 Oracle _home

REP-1419: 'beforereport': PL/SQL program aborted.I dont believe payment batches are used anymore as they need to be done via Payment profiles and therefore you will need to use Payment Instruction ids instead. Also the setup at R12 is Mosaic
try including this. as the first statement in the Beforereport trigger. All the banks tables payment tables has changed so unless you have changed these to you will need to adjust these correctly to the R12 tables.

Why I cant view my picture on my iphoto and if I try to copy to any folder it Shows "The item on the clipboard cant be pasted to this location. (One or more of the item may have been deleted or are no longer available) "

Why I cant view my picture on my iphoto and if I try to copy to any folder it Shows "The item on the clipboard cant be pasted to this location. (One or more of the item may have been deleted or are no longer available) "

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. Describe the problem as fully as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

R12 upgrade - why were RA views obsoleted?
