If you work for an Oracle Partner (which I assume you do because you've copied and pasted an OPN page above), you can take the boot camp mentioned here - http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=5001&get_params=p_exam_id:1Z0-511

It's not a backup restoration.
I'm a newbie, I installed Oracle on my computer. In the installation, Oracle allows to create a database. I didn't change any setting information, excepted set the database's password.
Oracle was successul installed.
The database setup (wizard) failed.
The listener was not created.
When the wizard step run "Creation and starting an Oracle instance", I get ORA-03113.
I don't know the log I sent to you is the good log. I'm not sure. My database name is "Essai1"
Do it is some files that I could send to you?
thanks for your help.

Difference between Oracle Projects (EBS) and Oracle Primavera

What is the difference between Oracle Projects (EBS) or Oracle Primavera? what is Oracle’s direction on Project portfolio management solution.

As you correctly state the ANSI standards weren't around when it was initially designed, so the statement is perfectly correct. ;)Ok, in one sense it may be correct but it is a completely misleading statement. Not sure why you think it's misleading.Because there was no ANSI standard, so making it sound like a design choice The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. would suggest to most readers that there was a standard to be compliant to.
Like saying Ford originally did not design their cars to incorporate safety features such as ABS, seat belts and air bags.
The OP asked "why oracle is having different syntaxes for joins than ANSI syntaxes ?" and the answer is that Oracle wasn't initially designed with ANSI compliance, so it has it's old non-ANSI syntax,As shown above, the old syntax was ANSI compliant at the time and to call it non-ANSI is either incorrect or misleading dependent on your point of view.
and since ANSI syntax became the standard it now supports that. And since ANSI switched to a new standard, Oracle had to implement the new standard as well as the previous ANSI standard would be more accurate in my opinion.
Nothing misleading as far as I'm aware in that.I find the whole discussion about ANSI and Oracle's supposed non-compliance, reads like it was Oracle's choice to deviate from the standards, when it was ANSI's bullheaded decisions to pointlessly change standards that left Oracle and other vendors out of compliance, and that was a decision made solely by ANSI.
This is probably the reason ANSI no longer produces SQL standards, the endless syntax fiddling would eventually have made forward left under outer joins a reality.

Compare Oracle Project Management and Primavera

Hi All,
We are using Primavera today and it is not integrated to Oracle.
We are also currently implementing Oracle Projects Management (R12.1.3) and trying to evaluate if Primavera can be replaced by Projects Management. Based upon my little experience with Primavera - I see some advantages of Primavera over Projects Management e.g.
a. Primavera is more user friendly than Oracle Projects Management.
Primavera: easy to create workplan; configurable views; generate reports with gantt charts
b. Primavera has scheduling engine to derive schedules based upon dates/duration/logic while Project Managment does not have it.
c. Gantt charts are better in Primavera than Oracle Projects Management.
Has anyone also done similar kind of analysis and evaluated the need of Primavera integration with Oracle Projects Management? I would appreciate if you can share your inputs.
Thanks,
Nitin

Hi,
I have used both the product. For project management i would suggest to use primavera for the same reason u mentioned.
the only disadvanage in primavera is it is not integrated with ERP.
Now oracle provide a AIA PIP integration package to integrate Primavera with oracle Projects(Limited integration). Use primaver for Project managment and oracle for Project Costing and Billing

Oracle Portal Setup and hosting prices.

Hello Everyone,
I am new to this community, and will like to know what it cost to setup, and host an Oracle portal. I am doing a little research for school, and will greatly appreciate any answers. Thanks.

It really depends on what you want, how many users will be using it, what it's for, and how many servers you would need to accommodate it and what type of Oracle package you choose to purchase and if you have Oracle consultants help you with the installation and creation or if you hire your own specialists to do it.
It's not really a question with an easy answer. What I would do, is I would assess a few different scenarios that are similar to different types of environments business would use it in and then research the components they require and for how large of a scale.
Portal isn't a stand alone product you really don't have a business using JUST portal. They are using Application Server and using the other products that come with along with Application Server such as Portal, Discoverer, Data Warehouse, Reports and other Oracle Tool kits and custom tool kits to achieve specific end results dependent on the requirements of the business. Portal is just a user friendly way of bring that information to either the public through the internet or your users though intranet and SSO.

Project Costings and Budgeting in cProjects 4.5

Hi Experts,
I want to understand can we do the project planning,costings and budgeting in cprojects 4.5? as we do in PS.
Can we capture the costs like materials, admin, etc on cprojects 4.5?
If yes then please let me know how?
Also what is the SAP best practice to mapped this costing and budgeting scenarios in integration of cprojects and PS?
Thanking you in advance.....
Aryan

Hello Aryan,
To my knowledge costing and budgeting are not the functionalities of cProject unlike the PS. Material costs cannot be captured using cProjects on the other hand you can definitely integrate them with IO's, triggering their creation etc.
I'm looking up to the forum for the Best Practice as well. Please advice.

Oracle Project Management and Oracle HCM integration????

Is there any benefits of Oracle Project Management for users of Oracle HCM?? Can they be integrated and how?

ERP systems were built because you could use various products like Fin, HCM, CRM, Project accounting etc seamlessly as all are built by the same provider and you will have less interface headache.
So, based on what your company's requirements, you can choose to implement one or more of the products.

Premiere Pro project setup and exporting 16x9 to 4:3 letterbox

I need to export a 16x9, 720/30p CS3 project, for final viewing on a 4:3 projector in letterbox. *This project is about to kick off with a VERY short deadling and the shooters keep changing their mind about whether they're going to shoot in 720/30p or 720/60p. I need to plan for both to be safe. How will this effect things in my original 16x9 project setup if they give me both 720/30p and 720/60p video? And what about exporting for letterbox viewing in 4:3 if this occurs? I mean, if I start a project in 720/30p with CS3 and they bring me 720/60p video as well as 720/30p video, will I have to start a new project and start editing everything all over again, and vice versa? Also, how will this effect my final letterboxed 16x9 product? **I also have to provide this to the customer in 16x9 DVD format.

Sorry, but you are at the wrong forum. The Premiere forums are here:

Oracle Project Analytics and Primavera

Hello Experts,
I would like to know whether Oracle Project Analytics supports Primavera?
Thanks,
~ Ash

Project Analytics only sources data from Oracle Projects in the eBusiness Suite. So, the only way that you would get planning information from Primavera into Project Analytics out-of-the-box is if you have integrated Primavera with Oracle Projects. Oracle now have a separate Analytics product for Primavera, "Primavera P6 Analytics".

Oracle Projects WBS and Construction Industry Projects

Hi, I would like to hear from anyone who can share example Work Breakdown Structures for Construction projects (e.g. high-rise commercial buildings, etc).
We currently have a process where we manipulate a Bill of Quantities in a spreadsheet and upload that in a summarized format (as a series of Trade Packages,etc) to Oracle. There is then a process to create the WBS and the Budget.
My query is around whether anyone has an alternative WBS-style for projects in a construction-oriented company. Because our WBS is based on Trades, it can get extremely long and unwiedly. Example below:
0.TP0430 Concrete Supply & Place
0.TP0431 Precast Concrete
0.TP0610 Reo Supply
0.TP0620 Reo Fixing
etc, etc.
thanks,
Mike.

Hi
When your invoice method is WORK (Time & Materials) you must run the process GDR (PRC: Generate Draft Revenue) before you run the process GDI (PRC: Generate Draft Invoice). That is because only the GDR process is calculating the billing amount and creates the RDL (Revenue Expenditure Line) for the Expenditure Items. Later on the GDI process select all un-invoiced RDLs and group them into the invoice lines.
When your invoice method is based on Events then GDI picks all un-invoiced events. It is not required that events will be included already in a draft revenue. Therefore, in that case the order you run the GDI & GDR processes does not matter.

Table for WBS project status and budget.

hi,
i am being requested to have a report with project details with the PO and PR.
but i were unable to find the table for the project status (TECO, REL) for a WBS element. may i know want table and what field they were being link?
aside, may i know under what table does the "budget assigned" to a WBS element located at?
thanks

Hi Ben,
in order to retrieve the status of a WBS element, please select into table JEST by object number (JEST-OBJNR = PRPS-OBJNR). This will give you an internal status code (JEST-STAT). Then go to table TJ02 with this internal code and select field TJ02-TXT04: this will give you the external status code.
For the budget, go to tables COSP and COSS, selecting by object number (OBJNR).
I hope this helps. Best regards,
Alvaro
