User Personal Profile Values

Hello,
We have a custom profile to set up the default printer at a user level for our shipping program (in R12). Currently, our users do not have access to the Personal Profile Values form and I would like to give them the ability to change this themselves.
The issue I have is allowing them to change other profiles. I'd like to limit them only to the one profile for changing their default printer.
Is it feasible to run an update statement like the one below to set this up:
update applsys.fnd_profile_values
set user_visible_flag = 'N',
user_visible_flag = 'N'
where profile_option_id <> 11632;
Or is there a better script that we should run to update this.
Regards,
Matt

You can use the above update to change the visibility of your custom profile option (or you can achieve the same from the application -- Application Developer or System Administrator > Define Profile Option).
You may also see the docs in this thread https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2569789
Btw, why are you setting user_visible_flag twice in your above update? And, I think you need to change "profile_option_id <> 11632;" to be "profile_option_id = 11632;" -- Assuming 11632 is the profile option if of your custom profile option.
Thanks,
Hussein

How to create a profile value at user level programatically

Dear all,
I want to create a profile value at user level programatically, I refer to the developer guide and try to use fnd_profile.put() to create a new value.
But I find out the value is just created in session level, not be inserted into base table.
So is there anyone know how to realize this function in PL/SQL?
Any idea is appreciated.

The EventSystem sub system is suppressing duplicate event log entries for a duration of 86400 seconds. The suppression timeout can be controlled by a REG_DWORD value named SuppressDuplicateDuration under the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EventSystem\EventLog.

hi do the following
1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
2. If prompted click yes,
3. expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
something similair)
5. right click the sid and press delete.
6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

Default DFF based of user login and value set

Hi All,
My requirement is: Default the value of a DFF based on a value set and the person who logs in.
My value set is:
Person A - Value 1
Person B - Value 2
So, if person 1 logs in - the DFF value should be Value 1.
If person 2 logs in - the DFF value should be Value 2.
How can this be achieved?
Alex

You can default the value by using SQL in the default type for the particular DFF segments. You can get the user id from $PROFILES$.USER_ID. You can derive the employee id / name from the user id (provided you do indeed tag an employee to the FND User definition)

Single firefox profile across all users and profiles on networks

I'm in the process of setting up Firefox as the standard browser for an entire building, and part of this is ensuring that everyone's firefox profiles are saved to personal network drives as opposed to the local machines. I can use the profile manager to do this on a user-to-user basis, but what if I want all the users of any machine to use the same firefox profile that points to a specific network drive? (This will ensure users always have their browser settings and such regardless of where they access them, allow us to switch machines out without losing anyone's browser settings, etc. The contents of this drive are specific to the user account, but always have the same path.)
As far as I can tell, profiles created in the profile manager are specific to each (domain) user, which would mean an awful lot of manual profile creation. Is there some way to ensure Firefox always uses a specific Firefox profile or path? Is there some way to have firefox check which profiles exist (in a .bat file, for example), so I can create the proper one if needed? Can I use a command line to set which profile to use by default, or can that only be done from the profile manager GUI?
Finally, and this one may warrant a separate query, but I've found that when using profiles that point to a network drive, trying to open firefox on multiple computers will fail (another instance of firefox is open, close it or restart). Can I tell Firefox to force the old instance closed, or will I have to firefox.exe -no-remote -p "differentProfile" every time?
We're on Windows 7, by the way, for references' sake.

We just deploy images, so everyone should have firefox already, but we're pretty good about keeping all data on mapped network drives instead of letting windows save things locally, so I'm trying to find the best way to integrate Firefox in that system as well.
Every user has a network domain account, which can be accessed from anywhere in the building. While mostly people use their own computers, due to the nature of the place, that is often not the case, and several people will need to sign on to the same machine on a given day.
If there are command-line ways of checking for firefox profiles, I can have them run in our logon script to ensure everyone always has access to their personal profiles, but I'm not sure the best way to go about that, yet. I suppose that's the main part of my second question--what is the cleanest way to check for and create/map/assign firefox profiles automatically?

User defined field values doesnot show up in summary tab

Hi,
I have created my own stylesheet to display some of my user defined field values (associated with organization address book entry type) in the summary tab of the addressbook entry. But Groupwise 8.0 client FAILS to display any of the user defined field values in the summary tab FOR ONLY ORGANIZATION ADDRESSBOOK ENTRY types. NOTE: These organization addressbook entries are created using the C++ Groupwise object API. But the Advanced tab of these organization addressbook entry shows those user defined fields with values in it.
Also Groupwise 8.0 Client is able to display the user defined field values in the summary tab for the PERSON ADDRESSBOOK ENTRY types, that are created using the Groupwise Object API. Also when I create a Organization addressbook entry using the Groupwise Client (NEW ORGANIZATION) and fill in the user defined field values using the Advanced tab or that addressbook entry, the summary tab displays those user defined field values.
So there could be some problem in setting the user defined field value for the Organization address book entry using the Object API or it could be Groupwise 8.0 Client issue in displaying the user defined field values ONLY FOR ORGANIZATION ADDRESS BOOK ENTRY, WHICH ARE CREATED USING THE OBJECT API. I also tried to see the underlying XML data in the summary tab and that XML data is missing the USERDEFINEDFIELDS and CATEGORIES tag for the organization address book entry.
I would like to know, if there is any need for special handling only for Organization addressbook entry in Groupwise 8.0 API. Any thoughts or help is really appreciated.

Hi,
Does anyone have an idea?? Think I have the same issue. Except, when I log in the client (ver. 802) then all the info is displayed. But when the user logs in on the same client and the same pc, he sees the xml info except the office address.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

WebI Publication: Logical OR in Profile Values

Hello,
In my WebI publication I am using profile values, which I defined for every user.
For example I have two profiles: "Employee City" and "Sales City". For my user I defined the the values Employee City=New York, Sales City=New York.
How can I define an logical OR between those profiles, so that a row shows up in the report, if the dimension [Employee City]="New York" OR [Sales City]="New York"?
I am using BO 4.0 SP7 Patch 2
Thanks!

The only solution would be implementing in with Row Level Security. Or has anyone a better idea?
Thanks!

Hi, I need to attach a value set to attribute12 which should not be the employee number, attribute12 of per_all_people_f and employee_number of a custom table and the number for the attribute12 should be the unique value.
The steps i have followed
1. created a table file_number to hold the numbers from 0000001....to...9999999
2. created a view-file_number_v to have unique numbers as
SELECT fn.file_number
FROM file_number fn
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM per_all_people_f pap1
WHERE pap1.employee_number = fn.file_number)
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM per_all_people_f pap2
WHERE pap2.attribute12 = fn.file_number)
AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM table1 t1
WHERE t1.employee_number = fn.file_number)
3. Created a table validated value set based on the above view and attached it to the Attribute12 of the DFF
Its worked fine for new inputs, but when ever i try to requery the employee,hence the number is inserted in the attribute12 column of per_all_people_f table the value set validates and provides error message.
To avoid this i have used the following temp table query,
(select file_number fn from file_number_v
union all
select attribute12 fn from per_all_people_f where attribute12 = :PERSON.ATTRIBUTE12:NULL) temp
I have used the above query as table in the valueset.
Now i have to get the person_id to use it on the above query to avoid the issue which i have mentioned in previous discussion.

Setting dynamic profile values in R3.0

Hi
Using the SDK can we set up profile values dynamically for use with Bursting. Currently it seems I have to define the profile values manually for each user and group or can use only the username, email or fullname for dynamic purposes.
What i want to do is have a table, report or file which has a listing like
user1   USA   blankets
user2   USA   pillows
user1   CAN   pillows
user1   IND     shirts
using this I want to setup a dynamic profile such that user1 = SELECT country FROM table WHERE uname = '%SI%TITLE%'
or any similar mechanism....
thanks for your help!
Asim

Profiles are fairly static things, so I don't think altering them via the SDK would be amenable to dynamically changing profile values or targets on-the-fly.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Can the business transaction be controlled using user status profile?

Hi All
there is a requirment that in a project there will be 3 stages of approval.
Each stage of approval should allow specific business transaction.
eg. When the project is apporved in 1st stage then only PR's and pln Oders can be raised.
When 2nd stage is approved then PR's can be converted to PO.
When 3rd stage is approved then and Production activity can take place.
I would like know whether user staus profile can be used to control the business transactions? If yes how?
If user status is not possible, can any one help me out?
Regards
Paimal

Hi ,
As per me this scenario can be handled without user status
When the project is apporved in 1st stage then only PR's and pln Oders can be raised.
If ur generating PR/ planned order thru MRP run it is only possible after WBS release.So give the WBS release authorisation to 1 st authority.
When 2nd stage is approved then PR's can be converted to PO.
Put release strategy to PR so that there can be check by autourised person.
When 3rd stage is approved then and Production activity can take place.
Give production order Release authorization to person who is responsible for production planning.
It is not suggestable to look at this scenario for applying user status.

"Edit Personal Profile" - ESS Benefits

Hi
We have a requirement to open the "Edit Personal Profile" in ESS Benefits "New Hire Enrollment" (GAF) in place rather opening in external window. I changed the property in the launchpad ESS/MENU for the "Personal Profile" under Benefits Enrollment to Force Inplace or Inplace but it is not taking effect in portal. Still opens in the external window. Am I missing something or it is handled by the code? Any suggestions would help.
Thanks, Raj

typically its meant to launch a new window 1926925 - READ_ONLY_PERSONAL_PROFILE in ESS Benefit Enrollment WDA its coded in the code, so above changes wont take effect in ESS/MENU Webdynpro component:HRESS_C_BEN_ENRL_CONFIG met:ON_EDITCLICK ls_parameter-value = 'EXTERNAL'. change it to ls_parameter-value = 'EXT_HEAD' in both the places. check here if you can get more information on this http://scn.sap.com/thread/3508230

After R12 clone, Source SID appears in users' personal homepage

Hi, After cloning an R12.1.3 instance, users logging into the Target instance see the name of the Source instance in the banner of their personal homepage. How can this be rectified? Apps dba's have run all standard cloning processes (in Cloning Oracle Applications Release 12 with Rapid Clone [ID 406982.1]). Verified Source SID does not appear in Target context files, additional autoconfig run in Target - still getting Source instance name.
Thanks for any thoughts

user1083814 wrote:
Hi Helios, I should have mentioned, that the profile option "Site Name" was already set to the Target environment name. That sets the name correctly in the Forms headers. But it does not affect the name in the banner of the users' personal home page (a html page, not forms). So the problem is still there.What page you are referring to? Could you upload a screenshot?

Deleting user status profile in equipment master

Hello experts,
can anyone tell if it's possible to delete a user status profile. Once we used an user status profile in an equipment i cannot find i way to delete or change the profile to another profile.

Hi,
You can only change the user status profile in the equipment provided no status value has been set. Once a status value is set (maybe as intital status) the field is closed for input and no change can be made to the profile.
