India Localization+custom.pll

Hi,
We are applying India Localization to Oracle application is already running in global instance.
What kind of back up we must take for custom.pll. There are many customizations done in global instance.
Thanks
Naveen,Sankuratri

India localization ships a CUSTOM.pll, which has code for some of the functionality to work. You have to merge the code in your CUSTOM.pll with the CUSTOM.pll shipped by localization patches/ patchsets.

How to close a custom form from CUSTOM.pll

Dear Friends,
We need your help on the following issue related to Oracle Apps Forms.
We have a requirement to show a popup message (message should remain open and user should be able to continue working in the order entry form. User use this message as a reference while entering order details) when user enters a customer name or number in the order entry form . This is similar to the Stock Availability form which gets opened automatically when control enters into Order Entry Lines form, where the stock availability form remains open while entering line details.
To fullfil the requirement, we have designed a custom form with a single text field in which the message text (some customer information) will be shown.
We are using custom.pll to call this custom form (thru FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE) when the control leaves customer number field. User could leave this custom form open and continue with entering order details. Till this point we could achieve what we want. i.e. we could show the popup message in the custom form after user enters a customer number.
The problem is, after the custom form is opened, when we enter a new order for different customer, we need to close the custom form (which is opened for the previous customer) if the customer is not qualified.
we could not achieve this. We tried using CLOSE_FORM, CLOSE_WINDOW, but did not help.
Any body have any suggestions on achieving this... Basically, we need your help to know how we can close the custom form from CUSTOM.pll.
Thanks,
Uma

I thing you haven't any (supported) option to close a form via custom.pll.
For a long time, we have search a solution for the same problem without any result.

Custom.pll to set block to read only

Hi all,
I want to use custom.pll to make the item revisions
form read-only for certain responsibilities in 11.5.9.
What is the best property to set to accomplish this?
Alterable_plus looks like a good candidate...
Thanks,
Scott

Actually, it looks like alterable_plus works at the item level - is there a property I can set for the block?
Thanks,
Scott

Apps 11i custom.pll

Does anyone know whether Apps 11i support custom.pll?
And If so what is the advanced features and features carried over from R11.0.3?
Thanks!

Oracle does not support your customizations, but they supported method of customizing is via custom.pll. How's that for an oxymoron. Basically if your custom form that you call from custom.pll is bombing, you're out of luck, however if it's a direct problem with custom.pll and it's built in features, they may give you some help. You can do quite a bit with custom.pll, but you have to be careful if you're modifying seeded forms behavior. It's nice for adding entried to the Tools, and Actions menu though for launching custom forms.

Custom code for LOV generation in Custom.pll

Hi All,
I am using the custom in my custom application, I am using the following procedure in Custom.pll for LOV generation. When I use the same procedure standalone then it's working fine, But when I use it in Custom.pll then it's giving me the Error "No-Data-Found", please let me know what to do. I am assuming that it can't find the appropriate backend table, I am logging in through sysadmin/sysadmin, Also I have fully followed the procedure for Table registration and Synoym creation and assiging it to apps but even then it's giving me the above mentioned error.

Calling Framework Pages from Apps (Custom Pll)

Hi All,
What a usefull forum I've been searching on metalink but didnt
know this forum existed till now!
Anyway I have written a few framework pages and would like to invoke them from an apps form I was thinking a menu option enabled by a custom pll is this possible? I would like to call the jsp and pass them parameters such as project_name, task_nam etc
Thanks in advance
Guy

Yes you can. You can simply define a Form Function of JSP Type and have the WebHtml call pointing to your PG.xml file and with the necessary parameters required.

Error: custom.pll

Hi all
when we are trying to open some forms we are getting an error :custom.pll cannot find the current instace, whats actual problem?where can we find the this program to edit it to add new instance.
thanks
Praneeth

You can turn CUSTOM.pll off in the forms via Help->Diagnostics->Custom Code->Off.
Otherwise, on the applications filesystem, go to $AU_TOP/resource, open CUSTOM.pll in f60desm or ifbld60.exe (windows) and look for logic errors in the pl/sql. Do a compile/validate all from the forms designer/builder.
You can recompile it with the following command or use adadmin to recompile all forms from product fnd.
f60gen module_type=library module=$AU_TOP/resource/CUSTOM.pll output_file=$AU_TOP/resource/CUSTOM.plx userid=apps/apps compile_all=yes

Change in custom.pll

Hi All,
I am facing a problem when making a change in custom.pll and the form. I have made a change in the custom.pll and then re attached the library in the form. Now i FTP the form and pll and compile first the pll and the form and then move these plx and fmx into a specified folder and when i open the form in application my change is not reflected.
Is this the right way i m doing. Also, I see that the package in custom.pll is never called in the form. Is this right. Do i need to call the package that is in library in form.
Also if i do this then it will be no longer a vanilla form. It would be changed to a custom form???
( is it possible that the package is automatically called in the form that(package) is defined in pll, i ve never done such a thing, i am aware that we have to call the package in the form as well, but not much idea when working when EBS)
Any help on this would be appricated.
Regards,

Hi,
Open ur library and make ur changes. Save it and Compile it.
Re-Attach ur library 2 ur form and compile ur form.
put newly generated .plx and .fmx files at ur desired location.
if ur changes still doesn't reflect then delete .plx and .fmx files from the location where ur r compiling these.
I guess with .plx u need to put .pll at ur desired location.
How would u call a package....?? (I don't know it)
what I know is you can call a procedure, function or any stored subroutine
You can also call packaged procedure and functions
but how to call a package.
hope it's helpful 2 u
Thanks & Regards

Way of customizing oracle forums without custom.pll and form personalizatio

HI,
I know that form customization is done thru custom.pll and form personalization.what about customization of events which are not found in custom.pll.how can we take care of those events.

You will have to modify the specific trigger inside the original fmb, and with every patch, redo your changes again. But i don't think thats supported by oracle (maybe you get a more detailed answer in the eBusiness-forums OA Framework )

Create Local Variable in Custom.pll

Hi,
I want to create and calling local variable in custom.pll. As i know, we can create local variable with personalization form. but i didn't find the way to create local variable in custom.pll.
Is there any way to create local variable in custom.pll and calling that variable ?
Thanks

I think what you want is to create a GLOBAL variable, a LOCAL variable would be available to the Procedure/Function being executed. But to create the local variable, you add it between the Function/Procedure declaration and the begin
PROCEDURE abc(p_input VARCHAR2);
v_count NUMBER := 0;
BEGIN
END;
A GLOBAL reaches out past the execution of the proc defined in CUSTOM.pll. You can simply type GLOBAL.<var_name> := <value>.
BEGIN
GLOBAL.xx_count := 0;
END;
Though I like the ability Personalizations give you of using Init Value vs. Value, Init Value will assign a value if the variable does not exist ... and creates it. Value just assigns a value.
Some say you have do a COPY(value, NAME_IN('variable name')) instad of GLOBAL.<variable_name>, I have never had to use this.

WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM in custom.pll

Hi All,
I have a requirement
In PO form when item is selected, the price should be populated from a custom table.
I tried populating price at WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM of item, but it seems that custom.pll does not capture WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM.
Is there any way I can achieve my requirement.
Thanks and Regards
Prajesh

If you do not have a quote, then it might a little harder.
What kind of data is present in your custom table?
Can you create/maintain quotes based on the data and then use the quotes for creating standard PO?
Hope this helps

Compiling custom.pll requires an outage?

Hi,
We need to compile the custom.pll in production. Does this require an outage to do that? What is the impact of compiling custom.pll without an outage?
-Ritesh

If this compile is done during non-business hours, and if some users are still connected to forms sessions. Would they have issues connecting to forms? Throw any kind of error? We are planning to compile the custom.pll today evening after business hours and bounce the services in the weekend. We are concerned that compiling custom.pll would cause an issue to existing users if they r connected?
My question basically is - compiling a custom.pll without shutting down services does it effect any end users to experience errors?
