전 프로젝트에서 이 프레임워크를 사용해서
EBS어드온 플로그인 모듈을 설계를 했었는데요 .
설계만 하고 개발은 하지 않아서 구체적인 내용은 잘 모르겠지만요.
접할 때 첫느낌은 자바 자카르타 프로젝트의 액기스들을 오라클 이비에스에
맞게 짜놓은 프로그램이구나라는 느낌이 들었습니다. (물론 구체적인 흐름은 전혀 다르고요)
전체적으로 MVC모델에 근거해서
화면 구성은 UIX가 컨트롤러는 CO(컨트롤 오브젝트)가
모델러는 AM(application module ) , EO(entity object),VO(view object)가 주요하게 자리 잡고 있는 모습은 스트러츠나 스프링을 보는 듯했고
UIX라는 화면 구성 부분은 JSF의 느낌이랑 비슷하였고
엔티티 오브젝트는 하이버네이트 같은 느낌이 들었고요 ( O/R맵핑)
뷰오브젝트 value오브젝트를 연상시켰습니다.
이런 식으로 오라클이 자바 개발자들을 이비에스의 세계로 끌어 들이기 위해 야심차게 릴리즈한 것으로 알고 있습니다.
하지만 초창기 프레임워크인 만큼 제약이 좀 있더군요.
이런 부분은 사용자가 피드백을 해서 개선해 나가야 할 거라고 믿고 있습니다만...
그냥 간단하게나마 제 느낌을 이야기 드렸습니다.
그럼 좋은 하루 되세요.

Your iPhone is probably locked to your former cell carrier. In such case only that carrier can unlock it, so you'll need to contact the carrier. Note that unless things have changed recently only 3 offers unlocking. If you used a different carrier, they do not appear to offer unlocking which means that your son will not be able to use your old iPhone. But call your carrier and ask.

We want to use training and event management iviews on the portal(which will be accessed through internet also).
How to display training and event management iviews ?
Do we require to develope web dynpro application for training and event iviews?
Can we use transaction iview for pv8i & pv7i directly ?
Please guide me..
Rajendra.

Hi Sunil,

Train on Master/Detail views

Hi,
assume these tables :
Organization: orgId,orgName
Branch: brId,orgId,brName
Terminal : tId,brId,serialNo
as you see,there is a hierarchy in these tables.
I want to use Train to let user add an Organization,and then Define it's branch,and finally add a Terminal to the branch newly created.
Question :
I don't know when / how to "CreateInsert" for all these tables.
considering the case that user may want to use "Back" button several times ,to change OrgName before hi commits on the last page for example.
problem :
on every backward and forward action a "CreateInsert" happens which is unwanted.
a sample project would help me alot!
Thank you,
Shahab

http://vtkrishn.wordpress.com/2011/02/09/oracle-jbo-invalidownerexception/Sorry, but I think that way is a workaround to fixing the original issue.
Shahab - the most likely problem is that when you dragged and dropped the CreateInsert activities, you didn't use the child objects for each of the two dependent VOs. For example, if you've created the data model for your VO correctly, there will be a Branch object "inside of" the Organization object (and similarly, inside that Branch object, there will be a Terminal object). Make sure that you are using the nested objects, and you shouldn't need to write any code anywhere. If you didn't do it this way, you can delete the CreateInsert method actions and re-drop them the right way.

Training n event management and pd

Hi gurus,
my cliient wants to implement training n event mgnmt and pd.client is not specific about the procedures of training and development. he wants to implement as per the best practices of sap. i was only into om , pa and payroll.
i dont even have a tinge of idea abt these submodules. i tried searching in forums and other sites to to my dissapointmnt. i am in a big soup now as i need to gather the requirement and do the configurations in a weeks time i.e by next weekend. plzzzzzz help me out with some best practices or some config docs as i dont know even the basics of these. I would appreciate if some body is helping me out with config docs.
Thanks n advance,

How to use training and event functionality in ESS BP in ep 7.0   ?

Hi all,
        We are using
1). sap portal 7.0 sp 9 and
2). Using back end ECC 6.0
3). And using Ess business package
Business Package for Employee Self-Service (mySAP ERP)   release 1.0
The business package doesnot contain any training and events module iviews.
We want to use training and event management iviews on the portal.
The document for this business package says that to use training and event management iviews we should install   Sap Learning solutions
I want to know?
1. How can we use training and event management iviews without using Learning solutions?
2. What is actually Learning solutions is a seperate module or it is the part of Sap HR module?
Please guide me..
Rajendra.

Rajendra,
Have a look at SAP Note 870126.
Here is a snippet:
<i>The following international ESS applications based on Standalone ITS have been or will be converted to the integrated ITS Version 6.40, and can still be used with mySAP ERP 2005. You can integrate these applications using ESS Homepage Customizing if required:
International ESS Services available on the integrated ITS as of mySAP ERP2005:
Training Center (PV7I) (see Note 771196)
myBookings (PV8I) (see Note 771196)</i>
To answer the second part of your question, the Learning Solution is an optional component that can be deployed in ERP. It complements and extends the existing TEM module. You generally still use TEM with LSO.
Is that what you were after?
Regards,
John

CONNECT TRAINING how many users in one license can enroll?

Hi, I have a regular license of Adobe Connect Name Host 100 Participants, It's work excellent for meetings.
I want to know if I buy one license of CONNECT TRAINING it's going to work in my current license of Adobe Connect , how many students can enroll my training content? need to buy more licenses? I want to use for on demand and live training.
I not a big corporate company it's only myself, want to do something more professional with curriculum, enroll students.
Another Question is about Adobe Presenter is this plug in for power point include in the Connect Training or have to buy apart?
Another question how many disk space have in my meeting room, for recording and library?
thanks for your help.

Martin,
Purchasing Concurrent Learner licenses will add the Training module to your account, unless you are on a monthly account through adobe.com, where the training module is not available.
The licensing for the Training module is for concurrent access to training content. 1 license means that one person can access training at any given time. You can enroll 15,000 people (random number, pick whatever value you want) in your training, but those individuals have limited access to the training based on the concurrent user load. If you want a plain English description of the licensing for Connect, you can find it here: Setting the Record Straight on Adobe Connect Licensing | RealEyes Media
Presenter is a separate license and is not included with the Training module.
Connect doesn't limit disk space. If on a hosted account, I believe there is 5 GB to start but more is added as needed. If on a licensed deployment, you are only limited to the amount of disk space allocated to your Connect server.

Some Thoughts On An OWB Performance/Testing Framework

Hi all,
I've been giving some thought recently to how we could build a performance tuning and testing framework around Oracle Warehouse Builder. Specifically, I'm looking at was in which we can use some of the performance tuning techniques described in Cary Millsap/Jeff Holt's book "Optimizing Oracle Performance" to profile and performance tune mappings and process flows, and to use some of the ideas put forward in Kent Graziano's Agile Methods in Data Warehousing paper http://www.rmoug.org/td2005pres/graziano.zip and Steven Feuernstein's utPLSQL project http://utplsql.sourceforge.net/ to provide an agile/test-driven way of developing mappings, process flows and modules. The aim of this is to ensure that the mappings we put together are as efficient as possible, work individually and together as expected, and are quick to develop and test.
At the moment, most people's experience of performance tuning OWB mappings is firstly to see if it runs set-based rather than row-based, then perhaps to extract the main SQL statement and run an explain plan on it, then check to make sure indexes etc are being used ok. This involves a lot of manual work, doesn't factor in the data available from the wait interface, doesn't store the execution plans anywhere, and doesn't really scale out to encompass entire batches of mapping (process flows).
For some background reading on Cary Millsap/Jeff Holt's approach to profiling and performance tuning, take a look at http://www.rittman.net/archives/000961.html and http://www.rittman.net/work_stuff/extended_sql_trace_and_tkprof.htm. Basically, this approach traces the SQL that is generated by a batch file (read: mapping) and generates a file that can be later used to replay the SQL commands used, the explain plans that relate to the SQL, details on what wait events occurred during execution, and provides at the end a profile listing that tells you where the majority of your time went during the batch. It's currently the "preferred" way of tuning applications as it focuses all the tuning effort on precisely the issues that are slowing your mappings down, rather than database-wide issues that might not be relevant to your mapping.
For some background information on agile methods, take a look at Kent Graziano's paper, this one on test-driven development http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?TestDrivenDevelopment , this one http://martinfowler.com/articles/evodb.html on agile database development, and the sourceforge project for utPLSQL http://utplsql.sourceforge.net/. What this is all about is having a development methodology that builds in quality but is flexible and responsive to changes in customer requirements. The benefit of using utPLSQL (or any unit testing framework) is that you can automatically check your altered mappings to see that they still return logically correct data, meaning that you can make changes to your data model and mappings whilst still being sure that it'll still compile and run.
Observations On The Current State of OWB Performance Tuning & Testing
At present, when you build OWB mappings, there is no way (within the OWB GUI) to determine how "efficient" the mapping is. Often, when building the mapping against development data, the mapping executes quickly and yet when run against the full dataset, problems then occur. The mapping is built "in isolation" from its effect on the database and there is no handy tool for determining how efficient the SQL is.
OWB doesn't come with any methodology or testing framework, and so apart from checking that the mapping has run, and that the number of rows inserted/updated/deleted looks correct, there is nothing really to tell you whether there are any "logical" errors. Also, there is no OWB methodology for integration testing, unit testing, or any other sort of testing, and we need to put one in place. Note - OWB does come with auditing, error reporting and so on, but there's no framework for guiding the user through a regime of unit testing, integration testing, system testing and so on, which I would imagine more complete developer GUIs come with. Certainly there's no built in ability to use testing frameworks such as utPLSQL, or a part of the application that let's you record whether a mapping has been tested, and changes the test status of mappings when you make changes to ones that they are dependent on.
OWB is effectively a code generator, and this code runs against the Oracle database just like any other SQL or PL/SQL code. There is a whole world of information and techniques out there for tuning SQL and PL/SQL, and one particular methodology that we quite like is the Cary Millsap/Jeff Holt "Extended SQL Trace" approach that uses Oracle diagnostic events to find out exactly what went on during the running of a batch of SQL commands. We've been pretty successful using this approach to tune customer applications and batch jobs, and we'd like to use this, together with the "Method R" performance profiling methodology detailed in the book "Optimising Oracle Performance", as a way of tuning our generated mapping code.
Whilst we want to build performance and quality into our code, we also don't want to overburden developers with an unwieldy development approach, because what we'll know will happen is that after a short amount of time, it won't get used. Given that we want this framework to be used for all mappings, it's got to be easy to use, cause minimal overhead, and have results that are easy to interpret. If at all possible, we'd like to use some of the ideas from agile methodologies such as eXtreme Programming, SCRUM and so on to build in quality but minimise paperwork.
We also recognise that there are quite a few settings that can be changed at a session and instance level, that can have an effect on the performance of a mapping. Some of these include initialisation parameters that can change the amount of memory assigned to the instance and the amount of memory subsequently assigned to caches, sort areas and the like, preferences that can be set so that indexes are preferred over table scans, and other such "tweaks" to the Oracle instance we're working with. For reference, the version of Oracle we're going to use to both run our code and store our data is Oracle 10g 10.1.0.3 Enterprise Edition, running on Sun Solaris 64-bit.
Some initial thoughts on how this could be accomplished
- Put in place some method for automatically / easily generating explain plans for OWB mappings (issue - this is only relevant for mappings that are set based, and what about pre- and post- mapping triggers)
- Put in place a method for starting and stopping an event 10046 extended SQL trace for a mapping
- Put in place a way of detecting whether the explain plan / cost / timing for a mapping changes significantly
- Put in place a way of tracing a collection of mappings, i.e. a process flow
- The way of enabling tracing should either be built in by default, or easily added by the OWB developer. Ideally it should be simple to switch it on or off (perhaps levels of event 10046 tracing?)
- Perhaps store trace results in a repository? reporting? exception reporting?
at an instance level, come up with some stock recommendations for instance settings
- identify the set of instance and session settings that are relevant for ETL jobs, and determine what effect changing them has on the ETL job
- put in place a regime that records key instance indicators (STATSPACK / ASH) and allows reports to be run / exceptions to be reported
- Incorporate any existing "performance best practices" for OWB development
- define a lightweight regime for unit testing (as per agile methodologies) and a way of automating it (utPLSQL?) and of recording the results so we can check the status of dependent mappings easily
other ideas around testing?
Suggested Approach
- For mapping tracing and generation of explain plans, a pre- and post-mapping trigger that turns extended SQL trace on and off, places the trace file in a predetermined spot, formats the trace file and dumps the output to repository tables.
- For process flows, something that does the same at the start and end of the process. Issue - how might this conflict with mapping level tracing controls?
- Within the mapping/process flow tracing repository, store the values of historic executions, have an exception report that tells you when a mapping execution time varies by a certain amount
- get the standard set of preferred initialisation parameters for a DW, use these as the start point for the stock recommendations. Identify which ones have an effect on an ETL job.
- identify the standard steps Oracle recommends for getting the best performance out of OWB (workstation RAM etc) - see OWB Performance Tips http://www.rittman.net/archives/001031.html and Optimizing Oracle Warehouse Builder Performance http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/pdf/OWBPerformanceWP.pdf
- Investigate what additional tuning options and advisers are available with 10g
- Investigate the effect of system statistics & come up with recommendations.

Next Steps
Although this is something that I'll be progressing with anyway, I'd appreciate any comment from existing OWB users as to how they currently perform performance tuning and testing. Whilst these are perhaps two distinct subject areas, they can be thought of as the core of an "OWB Best Practices" framework and I'd be prepared to write the results up as a freely downloadable whitepaper. With this in mind, does anyone have an existing best practices for tuning or testing, have they tried using SQL trace and TKPROF to profile mappings and process flows, or have you used a unit testing framework such as utPLSQL to automatically test the set of mappings that make up your project?
Any feedback, add it to this forum posting or send directly through to me at [email protected]. I'll report back on a proposed approach in due course.

Hi Mark,
interesting post, but I think you may be focusing on the trees, and losing sight of the forest.
Coincidentally, I've been giving quite a lot of thought lately to some aspects of your post. They relate to some new stuff I'm doing. Maybe I'll be able to answer in more detail later, but I do have a few preliminary thoughts.
1. 'How efficient is the generated code' is a perennial topic. There are still some people who believe that a code generator like OWB cannot be in the same league as hand-crafted SQL. I answered that question quite definitely: "We carefully timed execution of full-size runs of both the original code and the OWB versions. Take it from me, the code that OWB generates is every bit as fast as the very best hand-crafted and fully tuned code that an expert programmer can produce."
The link is http://www.donnapkelly.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/generated_code.htm
That said, it still behooves the developer to have a solid understanding of what the generated code will actually do, such as how it will take advantage of indexes, and so on. If not, the developer can create such monstrosities as lookups into an un-indexed field (I've seen that).
2. The real issue is not how fast any particular generated mapping runs, but whether or not the system as a whole is fit for purpose. Most often, that means: does it fit within its batch update window? My technique is to dump the process flow into Microsoft Project, and then to add the timings for each process. That creates a Critical Path, and then I can visually inspect it for any bottleneck processes. I usually find that there are not more than one or two dogs. I'll concentrate on those, fix them, and re-do the flow timings. I would add this: the dogs I have seen, I have invariably replaced. They were just garbage, They did not need tuning at all - just scrapping.
Gee, but this whole thing is minimum effort and real fast! I generally figure that it takes maybe a day or two (max) to soup up system performance to the point where it whizzes.
Fact is, I don't really care whether there are a lot of sub-optimal processes. All I really care about is performance of the system as a whole. This technique seems to work for me. 'Course, it depends on architecting the thing properly in the first place. Otherwise, no amount of tuning of going to help worth a darn.
Conversely (re. my note about replacing dogs) I do not think I have ever tuned a piece of OWB-generated code. Never found a need to. Not once. Not ever.
That's not to say I do not recognise the value of playing with deployment configuration parameters. Obviously, I set auditing=none, and operating mode=set based, and sometimes, I play with a couple of different target environments to fool around with partitioning, for example. Nonetheless, if it is not a switch or a knob inside OWB, I do not touch it. This is in line with my dictat that you shall use no other tool than OWB to develop data warehouses. (And that includes all documentation!). (OK, I'll accept MS Project)
Finally, you raise the concept of a 'testing framework'. This is a major part of what I am working on at the moment. This is a tough one. Clearly, the developer must unit test each mapping in a design-model-deploy-execute cycle, paying attention to both functionality and performance. When the developer is satisifed, that mapping will be marked as 'done' in the project workbook. Mappings will form part of a stream, executed as a process flow. Each process flow will usually terminate in a dimension, a fact, or an aggregate. Each process flow will be tested as an integrated whole. There will be test strategies devised, and test cases constructed. There will finally be system tests, to verify the validity of the system as a production-grade whole. (stuff like recovery/restart, late-arriving data, and so on)
For me, I use EDM (TM). That's the methodology I created (and trademarked) twenty years ago: Evolutionary Development Methodology (TM). This is a spiral methodology based around prototyping cycles within Stage cycles within Release cycles. For OWB, a Stage would consist (say) of a Dimensional update. What I am trying to now is to graft this within a traditional waterfall methodology, and I am having the same difficulties I had when I tried to do it then.
All suggestions on how to do that grafting gratefully received!
To sum up, I 'm kinda at a loss as to why you want to go deep into OWB-generated code performance stuff. Jeepers, architect the thing right, and the code runs fast enough for anyone. I've worked on ultra-large OWB systems, including validating the largest data warehouse in the UK. I've never found any value in 'tuning' the code. What I'd like you to comment on is this: what will it buy you?
Cheers,
Donna

Crystal reports 2008 training

Hi Friends,
Apologies in advance if my question belongs to other forum or group.
Did SAP gives training on Crystal repors with some fee? I searched SAP and found NIIT is one of the partners, but when I enquired they said they won't give training.
I want to take training on few typical areas in Crystal reports, in which I didn't have much knowledge like Custom functions/Variable scope/Arrays etc
I am in India, Chennai. If any one tell me some way to get training from any authorized center, It would be really appreciated.
SAP Team: Could you please give your suggestions if you have any idea
Thanks in advance,
Anil.
