Retek and Oracle Financials Integration

Hi,
We are planning to implement Retek for the retail stores and Oracle Financials for the back end operations. Can some one tell me if these two products are seamlessly integrated? For example will the data flow from Retek to say AP or AR without having to develop any interfaces.
Thanks in advance.

BPEL and Oracle financials Integration

Hi there,
we're at the beginning of scoping an integration project and I'm trying to get a handle on what options we have for integration with Oracle Financials. I've been referred to the BPEL Process Mgr - does anyone know of its abilities to integrate with Financials ? Does it use a JCA ? What other integration options do I have ? All help appreciated...
TIA,
aidan

The Oracle Applications adapter is installed as part of the base install, allthough licensed seperately. Adapters to other packaged applications (SAP, Peoplesoft etc) are seperate installs (and also licensed seperately).
The Oracle apps (Ebusiness Suite) adapter uses the common interface points of the applications to interface with them, and expose them in a friendly format, allowing you to browse the available modules and functions and select which ones you want to use in your BPEL process.

Can any one brief me about those.
Thanks in Advance

What exactly are you intending to do to Oracle Apps ? You suggest you are a developer, but Oracle Apps are already developed, by Oracle. Do you want to develop peripheral applications, or become an administrator, or what ?

Hi Sushanth,
See the merchandise integration guide and the operation guide of RMS (pretty good for a starter, though not more than a glimpse.)
Usually a specialized consulting firm will have the people with the experience and knowledge of these areas at hand to assist you.
I think if you really want to have these questions answered, you must hire a specialist consultant - I don't expect the forum to fill in those gaps for you, but who knows.
Also the CRP of an implementation project will deal with some of your questions, the CRP being lead by a subject matter expert (SME).
Best regards,
Erik

Differences between Hyperion consolidation and Oracle Financials Consolidat

I'm looking for a document- recommendations etc. explaining why using Hyperion Consolidations versus Oracle Financials Consolidation ?
Thanks
Marcel

Genie,
I agree that a case is made on how well these two ERPs solve the day to day tasks before a company chooses one of these two. But my question is aimed at finance to begin with. You are going to need a general ledger for any company or government regardless of ERP. And how well you can drive the ledger to map your business is the key here.
The way ledger is built is around a business area ,company or country and is very tighly designed in SAP. I would like to know if there is any equivalent of the configuration items in ORACLE. I am more interested in terminology of ORACLE.
For example ,
SAP ====> ORACLE
GL ==> Book In ORACLE
Document Number ===> Invoice Number
Posting Period in SAP ==> Posting period In ORACLE
Most of the terms are finance terms , so they are common ( eg. an account number is an account number in ORACLE and SAP ) between two systems. I am interested in any specific thing that is available in ORACLE but not in SAP and vice verse.
thanks for the link you have provided.

Discoverer 10g and Oracle Financials

I am a newbie. Does Discoverer run against Oracle Financials - Project Accounting in particular?
Thanks,
Cherie Machler

Hi,
Yes, Discoverer can run against Oracle Financials. You need to create a Discoverer EUL (End User Layer) that maps to the underlying Oracle financials tables and views and gives a business interpretation of the data in Oracle Financials. You can either use the EUL that is shipped with Oracle Financials Intelligence, create your own or do a bit of both.

IE8 and ORACLE Financials...

Well as I understand it from our Customer Support team IE8 is now available from MIcrosoft Update site and may well become part of the Automatic Update pack very very soon. As an ORACLE Financials Support Analyst, I am receiving an increasing number of calls from users not being able to login because of either their: Browser versions, Java Versions, J-Initiator and/or Profiles. Add to this another version of I-Explorer and bedlam.
I just wondered if anybody else has concerns opn this and if so what they're thoughts are..

Hyperion and Oracle Financials

Hello,
Can Hyperion report directly from Oracle Financials or is a datawarehouse required?
Are there any resources that anyone could recommend regarding the set up?
Many thanks
Rachael

What Hyperion tool are you referring to?
I have used IR- Interactive Reporting to report off Oracle Financials. It is not pretty but it is possible.

WMS and Oracle ERP integration.

All,
We are working on an integration project where in we are using Oracle Apps as the ERP System. With this Oracle ERP, we want to integrate any WMS/SCM system [red prairie, manhattan, oracle etc].
Are there any open APIs/Interfaces to Oracle Apps, where in, we can call these from our code [may be Oracle stored procs or .NET] and all the required data are populated in the ERP system, which can then be used for further processing..
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shridhar.

Does Oracle's WMS module not meet your needs? It would already be integrated.
As for APIs there is a manual that outlines all the available APIs for manufacturing. Look at the Discrete Manufacturing section to locate it.

Is OIM-OAM integration mandatory? It depends on the end user's requirements.
OAM is for Web Based SSO as you mentioned. If all you would need is SSO then you do not need OIM-OAM integration.
However, if you need user self service and password reset features you need OIM-OAM integration. By doing so you can enable OIM's user self service and password reset capabilities for your OAM users.

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.

Oracle JAAS with roles from database tables and Oracle SSO integration

I have the following requirement for user authentication and authorization. The applications are build using ADF Faces and BC4J. User authentication should be done using Oracle SSO. User roles and functions will be stored in custom tables. These roles will be used on ADF application pages to restrict access to the UI components on a page. Example: User will "Employee" role cannot create a new employee; however, user with "HR" role can create a new employee.
In this case, "Create" button will be visible on the ADF page.
1. How can we use Oracle JAAS to use custom tables for roles instead of using flat XML files?
2. How does ADF applications use these roles to restrict components on a page?
3. For authentication, I guess we should be able to use SSO and integrate with Oracle JAAS?
Thanks.

Hi,
I can give you the answers to 1 and 2 but haven't tried 3.
1) Oracle OC4J since 10.1.3.1 has a database LoginModule that is explained in the OC4J security guide.
I have a how-to document in review that will be published probaby next week and that explains how to set this LogiNModule up for JDeveloper and stand alone OC4J, though the OC4J documentation is pretty good as well
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32110_01/web.1013/b28957/loginmod.htm#BABCDDAI
2) Create a managed bean with boolan methods like isUserManager, isUserEmployee, isUserTechnician etc. In this methods check for the security role on teh request object's isUserInRole() method. Then access this methods from the disabled or rendered property using ExpressionLanguage
A custom Login ModuleDoesn't use Oracle JAAS but plugs into it. So I am not sure if SSO would work with this because the custom LoginModule wouldn't get a username password pair but only a username that it has to trust.

Key Configuration differences between SAP and ORACLE Financials

Hello,
After spending good 7 years in SAP related projects recently I started working in ORACLE Applications. I used to be an ORACLE programmer years back. To my surprise the same ORACLE Forms are still very much the heart of the ORACLE UI.
Then I thought what will be the key differences between ORACLE and SAP in terms of configuration elements. While I know a bunch of configuraion items in SAP , I am not sure about the same in ORACLE world. I am not even sure some of the configuration items that are available in SAP exists in ORACLE.
Does anyone know both sides of the coin ? The terminology and design ?
SAP has
Client,Company code, Business area, Functional Area, GL, Posting Key, Document Type.
I am trying to get the details of the equivalents of these in ORACLE.
Does anyone know it ?
For e.g , when you post to AP or AR in SAP , GL is updated automatically. In ORACLE you post to a AP Book or AR Book then Run a batch to move them to GL Book.
ORACLE uses SQLLoader to load data . You can write a PL SQL and update the tables directly, which is not the case in SAP. For dataloads and conversions, SAP uses BDC's ( though XI can be used but its slow).For ORACLE its the good old SQL and PlSQL combo.
What are the equivalents of the configuration elements in ORACLE world ?
Also what are the major differences between these two in terms of designing a financial system.
Does any one know ?

Genie,
I agree that a case is made on how well these two ERPs solve the day to day tasks before a company chooses one of these two. But my question is aimed at finance to begin with.
