Replacing Oracle DW with BW

Hello guys,
I need your expert advice on replacing Oracle data warehouse with BW.We have three cubes maintained in Oracle data warehouse and we are planning to implement BW warehouse and replcace Oracle.Could you please let me know from where should i start?.The Oracle is sourced from a non/R3 and BW should be sourced from R/3 as the client is implementing SAP.Should we bring the data from external source to R/3 before doing any thing?.Please guide me.Thank you.
Raj.

Hi Raj,
Welcome to SDN!
I don't think you have to bring all data into R/3 first.
You need to create a source system and setup DB COnnect between Oracle and BW:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/58/54f9c1562d104c9465dabd816f3f24/content.htm
choose relevant tables, generate datasources on them, replicate these DSs in BW, create the appropriate infoobjects and data targets, assign DS to infosource, create transfer rules, create update rules for data targets, create infopackages, and finally, load data.
It's a rather long way to go.
Best regards,
Eugene

REPLACING ORACLE LOGO WITH MY LOGO

REPLACING ORACLE LOGO WITH MY LOGO
hi i tried to replace the oracle logo with my custom logo......but still tht logo is not appearinmg........i followed the steps mentioned in the following note in metalink......can u tell me wht went wrong.i have also attached my config settings in formsweb.cfg.
You can either replace the Oracle logo with your custom logo, or just
delete the Oracle logo. Both of these options are described below.
Replacing the Oracle Logo with a Custom Logo
============================================
Forms 6i(6.0.8.8 or above), has a new look when using the Oracle
lookAndFeel parameter. An Oracle logo appears in the menu when you run
the form on web. The logo is visible, even if you use a default menu
or custom menu.
Follow this procedure to that logo with your custom logo:
1) Backup the following files:
oracle_home/forms60/java/f60all.jar
oracle_home/forms60/java/forms/icons/oracle_logo.gif
2) Create your custom logo in gif format and rename it to oracle_logo.gif
3) Copy your gif to the oracle_home/forms60/java/forms/icons directory.
4) Open the f60all.jar in WinZip.
5) Find a file called oracle_logo.gif in the archive and delete it.
6) Create the following directory structure:
c:\oracle\forms\icons
7) Copy your custom logo(renamed to oracle_logo.gif) to:
c:\oracle\forms\icons.
8) In WinZip, choose Add a file, then select the oracle_logo.gif from:
c:\oracle\forms\icons
9) Add the file to the f60all.jar archive and close the jar file.
10) Stop and restart your forms server.
11) Clear the cache from your browsers.
Now when you run the form on the web, your custom logo will appear in
place of the Default Oracle logo.
Removing the Oracle Logo from the Menu
======================================
Use one of the following methods to remove the Oracle logo from the
menu:
-- If you do not need to use the "Oracle" lookAndFeel, use the
"generic" lookAndFeel. When you use the generic look and feel, you
do not see the Oracle logo in the menu. However, you do see the
canvas in the windows default gray color. Also, the menu toolbar
icons are gray.
-- If you want to retain the Oracle look and feel but remove the
Oracle logo only, add the following parameter in your html file,
or add it in your URL:
Logo="no"
For example, in Netscape:
lookAndFeel="Oracle"
Logo="no"
For example, in IE:
<PARAM NAME="lookAndFeel" VALUE="Oracle">
<PARAM NAME="Logo" VALUE="no">
This suppresses the Oracle logo at runtime on the web.
Solution Explanation
====================
With the oracle lookAndFeel parameter, the Oracle logo is always
inserted in the menu. You must remove the logo or add another logo
with the same name if you want to replace the Oracle logo.
---MY CONFIG FILE-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hey,
u can try making your own .jar with your icons inside and put it on the3 forms60/java directory.
Include also the following line in cfg file:
archive_jini = f90all_jinit.jar, [youriconsarchive].jar
and maybe you should change imagebase to 'codebase' instead of documentbase.
I have it like this and works ok. I can use every icon in my jar as logo or anything else..
hope this helps

Replace Oracle Logo with client logo

Oracle Forms wizard created a form with "Oracle" logo at the upper-right corner.
How do I replace the "Oracle" logo with another logo?

create your own menu in forms, save it as lety say MYMENU.mmb, generate it and then assign MYMENU in the menu-property of your form-module (the mmx-file of the menu must be in your forms-path)

Replacing Oracle Names with OID?

Hi All
We have our systems using Oracle Names for db connections. these are on 9.2.0.4 and we plan to move to 10g and we want to move from oracle names to OID
couple of queries which we have
Is Oracle Names supported for Oracle 10g databases and on Solaris 10 platforms? if not then is OID the product to replace Oracle Names or is it some other product?
Does it have a repository database to retain data or is it flat file based?
Does this software replacement version support oracle 8i, 9i, 10g and 11g databases?
please let us know if possible
thanx
kb

Names has been deprecated so moving away from it is the correct course of action.
To find out about OID, which is not "database" I would suggest you either check the product docs or contact your Oracle sales rep. Invite that lucky person to bring out a Sales Engineer and give you a demo and answer your questions: They will.

Replacing Oracle Toplink with TopLink Essentials

Is it possible to force OC4J to use TopLink Essentials by default
instead of Oracle TopLink?

Hi
Replace your toplink jars in your server with the new
jars. it should pick up automatically
Regards,
RaghavendraHi,
I am trying to use the latest version of Toplink Essentials with the embedded OC4J in JDeveloper 10.1.3.
Can you please be more specific?
Which JAR files must be replaced?
Thanks in advance,

Replacing Oracle OFA with Enterprise Planning and Budget or Hyperion

I'm looking at replacing OFA with EPB. Does this option still exist or has Oracle
phased it out?

Hi,
Oracle Hyperion Planning is the way forward and is the budgeting and planning tool of choice for Oracle.
So if you are going to make an investment I would go for Hyperion Planning.
Cheers

Replacing Oracle Interconnect

Hi All
     First a bit of background ...
     We have had a successful integration of our E-Business 11.5.10 system to an external system using Oracle Interconnect and a soap adaptor.
     Oracle E-Business <-> Oracle Interconnect <-> Soap Adaptor <-> External System.
     We have now upgraded to E-Business R12.1.3 and have decided to move away from Oracle Interconnect as it is no longer supported.
     Looking through the available documentation it would appear that SOA/BPEL is the all singing, all dancing solution to system integrations, but rather than start at the top, if possible I would like to make the minimum amount of changes.
     So my questions are ......
     1) Is it possible just to replace Oracle Interconnect with Oracle Service Bus
     Oracle E-Business <-> Oracle Service Bus <-> Soap Adaptor <-> External System.
     2) Do we need Oracle Service Bus or can we just use SOA Integration Options for Oracle E-Business Suite
     SOA Integration Options for Oracle E-Business Suite <-> Soap Adaptor <-> External System.
     We have some funding available for training but I want to make sure that which ever course we chose SOA/BPEL/Oracle Service Bus will contain the concepts we require to do the interface.
     So any advice(links to documentation) would be gratefully received.
Regards
Dave

How to migrate an existing Microsoft SSIS deployment if it is decided to replace SQL Server with an Oracle database?

Hi Oracle Gurus!
Currently, I am designing an ETL solution that transforms and loads a lot of data from flat files and sends it to an SQL Server 2008 R2 database for storage. However, at a future point of time, it may be decided to add or even replace SQL Server with an Oracle 11g database.
Currently, I am writing script transforms in C# to dynamically generate SSIS packages to tansform and load the data into SQL Server. But considering that in future, an Oracle 11g or 12c database might be added to, or replace the SQL Server database, how do I make my script transforms (or whatever else I am developing currently for SQL Server) reusable to the extent possible?
Or more precisely, what steps do I take, from an Oracle point of view, to ensure that any future migration of data to an Oracle database would be smooth to the extent possible?
Looking up to my Oracle Gurus for enlightenment in this matter!
Novice Kid

When you're writing your on C# code to load data into the SQL Server you have to modify the routines so that they will work with Oracle.
One approach is to use the extproc agent which would allow you to directly call external programs with all the logic in it to perform the load of your files and to put the data into the Oracle database. Another option would be to use utl_file package (or equivalents) which will allow you to open external files from your Oracle database and to directly read its content and then to pass it to the related tables.

Replacing Oracle EBS FND Attachment functionality with UCM

I am new to Oracle UCM and wondering about Replacing Oracle EBS FND Attachment functionality (Paper Clip in EBS forms) with UCM. Can we achieve this by simply defining the Attachment Repository using System Administrator Responsibility in EBS? Can you share some documentation on this?
If we have to customize the forms to re-direct the document repository from FND to UCM, please share the steps to do so.

Didn't see the link in your post. may have been stripped.
if you want to use the ebs native attachment lists, what we've done is used a custom bpel composite to load items into the appropriate entity in the fnd_documents and all of those other related ebs tables. this takes webcenter out of it for the most part. you could also load links, similar to the imaging solution's approach. this way, again, uses the ebs attachments, but stores the image in IPM (in the imaging case, that is). there is a link loaded into the fnd tables.
if you want to leverage the ebs-side attachment lists, managed attachments may not be the approach you want to take. You may want to look into the imaging solution or creating a custom process.

Replacing Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions.

Hi,
I am using OBI 10.1.3.2.1 where, I guess, EVALUATE is not available. I would like to know alternatives, esp. to replace Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions.
I want to track some changes. For example, there are four methods of travel - Air, Train, Road and Sea. Would like to know traveler's first method of traveling and the last method of traveling in an year. If both of them match then a certain action is taken. If they do not match, then another action is taken.
I tried as under.
1. Get Sequence ID for each travel within an year per traveler as Sequence_Id.
2. Get the Lowest Sequence ID (which should be 1) for travels within an year per traveler as Sequence_LId.
3. Get the Highest Sequence ID (which could be 1 or greater than 1) for travels within an year per traveler as Sequence_HId.
4. If Sequence ID = Lowest Sequence ID then display the method of travel as First Method of Travel.
5. If Sequence ID = Highest Sequence ID then display the method of travel as Latest Method of Travel.
6. If First Method of Travel = Latest Method of Travel then display Yes/No as Match.
The issue is cells could be blank in First Method of Travel and Last Method of Travel unless the traveler traveled only once in an year.
Using Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions, I can get a result like
Traveler | Card Issue Date | Journey Date | Method | First Method of Travel | Last Method of Travel | Match?
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 04/04/2000 | Road | Road | Air | No
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 15/12/2000 | Air | Road | Air | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/05/2000 | Train | Train | Train | Yes
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/11/2000 | Train | Train | Train | Yes
Using OBI Answers, I am getting something like this.
Traveler | Card Issue Date | Journey Date | Method | First Method of Travel | Last Method of Travel | Match?
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 04/04/2000 | Road | Road | <BLANK> | No
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 15/12/2000 | Air | <BLANK> | Air | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/05/2000 | Train | Train | <BLANK> | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/11/2000 | Train | <BLANK> | Train | No
Above, for XYZ traveler the Match? clearly shows a wrong result (although somehow it's correct for traveler ABC).
Would appreciate if someone can guide me how to resolve the issue.
Many thanks,
Manoj.

Hi,
Just to recap, in OBI 10.1.3.2.1, I am trying to find an alternative way to FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions used in Oracle. Somehow, I feel it's achievable. I would like to know answers to the following questions.
1. Is there any way of referring to a cell value and displaying it in other cells for a reference value?
For example, can I display the First Method of Travel for traveler 'ABC' and 'XYZ' for all the rows returned in the same column, respectively?
2. I tried RMIN, RMAX functions in the RDP but it does not accept "BY" clause (for example, RMIN(Transaction_Id BY Traveler) to define Lowest Sequence Id per traveler). Am I doing something wrong here? Why can a formula with "BY" clause be defined in Answers but not the RPD? The idea is to use this in Answers. This is in relation to my first question.
Could someone please let me know?
I understand that this thread that I have posted is related to something that can be done outside OBI, but still would like to know.
If anything is not clear please let me know.
Thanks,
Manoj.

Replace E1- Adapter with Business Services

Hello,
We are using E1-adapter to communicate with web Methods ( like calling business function, table IO etc..), now we are planning to replace E1- adapter with Business Services. We are using tools 8.98.11 and Application Release E812.
Question is , is it possbile to create a wraper to call any business functions just like E1-adapter? Any help is greatly appriciated.
Thank you.
Edited by: user3448054 on Oct 12, 2009 1:09 PM

Yes, you can use the JDE Business Service Server to simulate the E1-Adapter associated with webMethods. Oracle provides out of the box Business Services for a majority of the E1 transactions. We have implemented Business Services Server with our webMethods and it is working very well.

I can't execute oracle functions with c#. i'm using oracle 9i version.

i have a problem trying to execute an oracle function with c#.net. The Oracle version i'm using is Oracle 9i.
This is the function definition: (it's defined and working right because i have tryed it with SQLWorksheet)
CREATE OR REPLACE Function NRegistros return integer is
Numero integer(4);
begin
select count(*) into Numero from singles;
return Numero;
END NRegistros;
But with c#.Net i can't acces it because i get an error: "this is not a procedure or is not defined". And i think the code is right. In fact in the same code you can see that i'm using an stored procedure and i have not problems. But with the function i have problems. Is it possible that "OracleClient" can't work with Oracle9i functions??. This is the code:
OracleParameter Parametro = new OracleParameter("Name", OracleType.VarChar,10);
OracleParameter ParametroFuncion = new OracleParameter("Retorno", OracleType.Int32, 4);
Parametro.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
ParametroFuncion.Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue;
OracleConnection Conexion = new OracleConnection("Data Source=DISCOS;User Id=SYSTEM;Password=a0000;");
Conexion.Open();
OracleCommand Todos = new OracleCommand();
OracleCommand Procedimiento = new OracleCommand();
OracleCommand Funcion = new OracleCommand();
Todos.Connection = Conexion;
Todos.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
Todos.CommandText="select * from singles";
Procedimiento.Connection = Conexion;
Procedimiento.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
Procedimiento.CommandText = "Procedimiento";
Procedimiento.Parameters.Add(Parametro);
Funcion.Connection = Conexion;
Funcion.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
Funcion.CommandText = "NRegistros";
OracleDataReader Lector = Todos.ExecuteReader();
BindingSource Discos = new BindingSource();
Discos.DataSource = Lector;
dgvSingles.DataSource = Discos;
Procedimiento.ExecuteNonQuery();
Funcion.ExecuteNonQuery();
lblRegistroProcedimiento.Text = Procedimiento.Parameters["Name"].Value.ToString();
lblNregistros.Text=Funcion.Parameters["Retorno"].Value.ToString();
Conexion.Close();

thank you very much. It was a stupid error, sorry. There was one line left :
OracleParameter Parametro = new OracleParameter("Name", OracleType.VarChar,10);
OracleParameter ParametroFuncion = new OracleParameter("Retorno", OracleType.Int32, 4);
Parametro.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
