Using Forms 6i for Custom EBS Forms - Won't Run in Forms Builder

I'm using forms builder 6i to create custom form for ebs 11i. I started with template.fmb. When run the form using the client/server runtime, all of the app_standard calls generate errors. i have to put code in there that checks to see if it is running on the web or not. if i don't do that, the form won't run. why does it not understand the app_standard calls when it is running in client/server mode? is there something i need to change? how can i simulate an EBS environment locally so i don't have to put special code in there for running in client/server mode?

Please see if these threads help.

  • Modifying form on unix server using Form Builder installed on Windows deskt

    We are using Oracle Applications hosed on unix servers. There is a custom form in XXX_TOP/forms/US folder that I need to modify. My Windows desktop has Forms Builder 10g installed. I ftpied fmb file over from unix server to my Windows desktop and tried opening it. I get an error FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects: APPSTAND, etc etc. Obviously I am not doing it right. What is the correct way of modifying a form file sitting on unix server, using Forms Builder installed on Windows desktop? Do I need to copy all dependant objects to Windows desktop along with fmb file? Thank you in advance.

    You will also need all of the .plb and .fmb found in the AU_TOP/Resources, however, if you modify an Oracle provided Form you will loose all support from Oracle for that Form and anytime you apply an upgrade or patch, you will loose the changes if the upgrade/patch involves the modified form. There are only 2 approved ways to modify an Oracle supplied EBS form. First is by using the CUSTOM.PLL library and the second is by using Forms Personalization (FP). I strongly recommend you persue using the CUSTOM.pll or FP. If neither of these options will provide the functionality you need - CALL ORACLE SUPPORT before you modify any files.

    PS: I have intalled the Oracle EBS VIS, and the OS is WinXP(ZHS).

    Yes, that's right.
    I have fixed this error.
    At the same time, I found a bug when installing Oracle EBS DEMO. That is,
    FORM60_PATH in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE,is $AU_TOP\11.5.0\resource;$AU_TOP\11.5.0\form\us; But another one in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME2 is $AU_TOP\11.5.0\resource;$AU_TOP\11.5.0\plsql. I think the second one is the working path used by Form Builder. Correcting it to be same with the first one will be OK. Or you can change all of them to your own working path.
    PS: Form builder is installed in the server PC which I only have:)

  • How to access database module when i use forms builder 9.02

    hello all:
    i'm migration forms 6i application to 9ias r2.
    My application use a module saved in database and it was referenced by all other forms ,when i use forms builder 9.02,i can't access it .Online help hint :
    open form builder,select edit--preference--access tab,select ask,but i can't find it .Who can help me ?

    Forms modules in the database are not supported in 9i - you will have to extract the module in 6i to the file system and adjust the reference before upgrading the form.
    See the following document on OTN for useful information when upgrading.

  • How to use F-04 for customer invoice payment

    Hi All,
    we post cutomer invoice in FB70 & then use F-28 for customer payment. Could you please advice if I can use F-04 instead of F-28 for customer payment.
    Regards
    Deepak

    Dear Deepak,
    there is no difference between the two transaction F-04 and F-28, if You use the F-04 with Incoming payment flag switched on.
    The F-04 like FB05 are the generic classic trancations that can be used for incoming, outgoing, credit memo and clearing at once: changing the flag You can do different posting without running different transction as F-53, F-28 and so on.
    Thanks.

  • HRForms using Form Builder - how to create one spool

    Hi,
    I am using HRForms and Adobe (Form Builder) to create the Payslip.
    The InfoStars do not contain the Dimension EMPLPOYEE. When I run the report I get one PDF document for each employee. If I want one PDF for all employees or one spool doc, do I have to insert the Dimension into each InfoStar ans also ajust the Adobe Layout?
    In the report selections screen I have the option to choose if I want to print per person or all together in one spool. But this doesn't work. I guess the reason is the missing Dimension!?
    Anyone experience in this?
    Thanks and best regards
    Viktoria

    Hi,
    I copied form SAP_PAYSLIP_DE_P. It doesn't work with parameter "Number of Employees per Form (0= All)" = 0. Only with 1. With 1 it creates 1 spool document for each person. I guess that the context of the form and the layout was not created to work for the parameter setting = 0 (all employees in one form).
    Regrads,
    Viktoria
    Hi,
    in between I found out that if you enter a big number in this parameter like '999' one spool document is created but within this there are many pdf documents ( 1 / employee). There is still the problem if you want to have 1 pdf for all employees. There is no standard solution yet but I know that there are customer solutions to create 1 document for all employees or at least have 1 spool if you have to split the run ...

  • Creating a .fmb with out using form builder

    Hi
    I am having a template to create form modules in the forms builder, for the most of the forms I need not change any
    of the PL/SQL code provided by the template. (All my business logic and information regading items in object navigator resides in the database) The only thing that I need to do is creation of fields in object navigator and provide the
    sub class information for it. So I felt that It's better to have a tool which generats the requried .fmb file if the all
    field details are stored in a table.
    While expermenting on that we came to know that there are some functions provided by Oracle Developer6.0 that creates all
    objects in the object navigator using a C program. These programs requires some header file, most of which are provided by
    Oracle developer6.0 and some are missing.
    Pls. let me know if any one experimented
    Thanx & Regards

    u have 2 options
    create  amterial master with price control indicator standrd and maintin the price of mateirial in account view now create a po with free line itme and do the gr now in this case sytem will create a accounting document and it post the amount to the stock account Dr.
    and no gr/ir  account hit will happen as it is a free itme so there is no question of paying any amount to vendor
    u can also use movement type 511 to do the gr for that free good
    option 2  create  am material with moving average price in this case if u do the gr then  system will not create any account document but point to note here is the price will become then zero in material master as map means latest price is updated in matreial master

  • Display wpc page containing articles created using forms builder

    Hi everybody,
    I need to create a wpc site with different pages. Each page will need to contain different categories of articles.
    These articles will be created using the xml forms builder and for each category there is a specific KM folder (the articles are classified using taxonomies).
    In a page "food", all the articles from the "food" folder will need to be displayed (title, date and content). this for every article in the folder.
    I already had a look at HTML collection renderer but this is not providing what I need.
    So I need something else but I have no idea what I can use for this nor where to start looking for it.
    Can anybody help me?

  • How to use Resever Field for Customer Master

    Hi
    My Client Requirement. Price should be determine with Sales ORG, Distribution channel, Division, Districts, Talukas and Villages.
    But Talukas and villages are not available in SAP standard systems.
    Is it possible to use reserver field in Customer Master for this purpose?
    If it is ok then please give suggestion how to use this reserve fields.
    Thanks in Advance
    Madhu

    Hello,
    the system-behavior that you describe is standard behaviour, because   
    the fields which you are describe (village and ..) doesn't exist in structure KOMG.                                                                               
    For using this field in the field catalog you can proceed like this:   
    1. create a new field for example ZZvillage...                             
    2. add the new field in the table T681F for the application 'V' and the
       usage 'A'                                                           
    3. add the field to the include-structure KOMKAZ                       
    4. fill the new fields in the userexit for pricing                     
       (Pricing_Prepare_TKOMK (TKOMP)                                                                               
    I hope that the information are helpful for you.

  • Using single repository for Customer and Vendor

    Hi All
    Has anyone worked in scenario where a single repository was used to store both Customer and Vendor records? The source and Target systems are SAP ECC and MDM will have both Basic as well as contextual data.
    I would like to know the likely challenges. Anyone who has worked on similar grounds can please share his viewpoints.
    thanks
    Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
    As you want to manage both Cutomer and Vendor data in MDM you need to consider the following points:
    - If you are seeing the Customer and Vendor master as a combiantion satisfying some common criteria,then you can go about using the SAP delieverd Business partner rep which is designed keeping the ECC customer and Vendor details to an extent.You can unarchieve the BP rep in MDM and have a look at its data modelling if it serves your purpose.
    - As of MDM 5.5 we do not have provision of holding two master records in a single rep as we can use only 1 main table.So if you want to fit in your customer and vendor masters in one rep you will have to accomodate the combined fields under a single rep with proper data modelling.
    - You need to store your two masters in two separate rep and perform data modelling in such a way that your one rep hold those common fields which you wish to use for finding duplicates as mentioned in your above req and then store this information with the complete rest in a dfferent rep.So its a 2 rep concept as possible with teh current MDM version.
    - I am not very sure of this method but i think we have a provision of calling and linking data from two rep and display them as one to work upon them through EP.
    Hope It Helped
    Thanks & Regards

    Nope, it opens a tiny little window, plus opening the floating tool menu
    This time I did not use the desktop short cut, but used what should be the exec icon under program files, expanded the window and it worked!
