24. How to register a table and columns through back end?
* by using AD_DD package
- for registering a table
-
- AD_DD BPI doesn‟t check for the existence of the registered table or column in the data base schema, but only updates the required SQL tables.
- It should be ensured that, all the tables and columns registered exist actually and have the same format as that defined using AD_DD API.
- Views need not be registered.
25. How to write to a file through concurrent program.
* By using FND_FILE package and it can be used only for log and output files.
1. FND_FILE.PUT
- this is used to write text to a file with out a new line character
- Multilane calls to FND_FILE.PUT will produce consummated text.
Procedure FND_FILE.PUT (which IN Number, Buff IN varchar2);
- can be FND_FILE.LOG or FND_FILE.OUTPUT.
2. FND_FILE.PUT_LINE 11
- this procedure as used to write a line of text to a file followed by a new line character.
Procedure FND_FILE.PUT_LINE (which IN number, buff IN varchar2);
EX:- FND_FILE.PUT_LINE( FND_FILE.LOG, find_message_get);
3. FND_FILE.NEW_LINE

Ex:- to write two newline characters to a log file
Fnd_file.new_line (fnd_file.log,2);
4. FND_FILE.PUT_NAMES
- this procedure as used to set the temporary log file and output filenames and the temporary directory to the user specified values.
- This should be called before calling my other FND_FILE procedure and only once per a session.

( application in varchar2 default null,
program in varchar2 default null,
description in varchar2 default null,
start-time in varchar2 default null,
sub_request in bookan default False,
argument1,
arguemnt2,
argument 100) return number;
* If this is submitted from oracle forms, all the arguments ( 1 to 100 ) must be specified. 12
27. How to submit concurrent programs through OS?
- From the operating system the utility .CONCSUB is used to submit is concurrent propgram.
- This is basically used to test a concurrent program .
- By using the WAIT token. The utility checks the request status every 60 seconds and returns the OS prompt upon completion of the request.
- Concurrent manager doesnot abort, shutdown or start up until the concurrent request completes.
* If the concurrent program is compatible with it self, it can be checked for data integrity and dead locks by submitting it many times so that it runs concurrently with it self.
*PL/SQL procedures can submit a request to run a program as a concurrent process by calling.
FND_REQUEST. SUBMIT_REQUEST.
* Before submitting a request, the following functions also should be called optionally.
FND_REQUEST.SET_OPTIONS
FND_REQUEST.SET_REPEAT_OPTIONS
FND_REQUEST.SET_PRINT_OPTIONS
FND_REQUEST.SET_MODE
28. How to checks the request states?
- A PL/SQL procedure can check the status of a concurrent request by calling.
FND_CONCURENT.GET_REQUEST_STATUS
FND_CONCURRENT.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
- FND_CONCURRENT.GET_REQUEST_STATUS
- This function returns the status of a concurrent request
- If the request is already computed, it also returns the completion message.
- This function returns both user friendly (translatable) phase and status values as well as developer phase and status vales that can drive program logic. 13
( request_id in out number,
application in varchar2 default null,
program in varchar2 default null,
phase out varchar2,
status out varchar,
dev_phase out varchar2,
dev_status out varchar2,
message out varchar2) return BOOLEAN;
- when application and program are specified, the request_id of the last request for the specified program should be returned to request_id.

( status in varchar2,
message in varchar2) return BOOLEAN;
normal
status warning
Error
29. What is the reason for not getting any data when a multi org view is quired?
- to get the data correctly, the xxx-ALL must be referenced and the ORG_ID value should be specified to extract portioned data.
- Multiorg views are partitioned by using ORG_ID.
- So access through multiorg views will not return any roes, as the CLIENT_INFO Value is not set
- Use HR_OPERATING UNITS to identify the organization _id of the OU on which query is based.
- Use FND_CLIENT_INFO package to set the value in CLIENT INPO using set_org_contest.
- Execute fnd_client_info. Set_org_context („<org_id>‟);
- Now qurying of multiorg views can be done. 15
30. How do you find that muliorg is installed?
- multi organization architecture is meant to allow muliple companies or subsidiaries to store their records with in a single data base.
- Multiple organization Architecture allows this by partitioning data through views in APPS schema.
- Implementation of Multi org generally includes more than one business group.
* To know whether multiorg is existing or not
select multi_org_flag
form fnd_product_groups)
- if the result is „Y‟ means the database is group for multiorg
31. what are Handlers?
* Handler is a group of packaged procedures which is used by Oracle Applications to organize . PL/SQL code in forms.
- Handlers provide a way to centralize the code so that it becomes easier to develop, maintain and debug.
- The packaged procedures available in a handler are called form the triggers by passing the name of the trigger as an argument for the procedure to process.
* Handlers are types :- 1) Item Handlers
2) Event Handlers
3) Table Handlers
4) Business Rules
- Handlers reside in program units in the form or in stored packed in the database.
32)Adding Table handler Logic
Coding logic for window and alternative region control.
Adding fin-windows and/or ROW-LOV‟S and enable query-find.
Coding logic for item relations such as dependent fields.
Coding messages to use message dictionary. 16
Adding FF logic if required.
Adding choices to the special mence and logic to modify choices the default menu and tool bar behavior is necessary.
Coding any other logic.
Creating a form function for the developed form and registering any sub functions.
Testing the form by it self.
Registering the form with AOL.
Adding the form function to a menu or creating custom mence.
Assigning the menu to the responsibility and assigning the responsibility to the user.
Testing the form within Oracle Applications.

Lexical references cannot be made in Pl/SQL statements.
Bind references can be done in a PL/SQL statements.
Lexical parameters can be referenced by entering an ampusand ( ) followed immediately by the column name or parameter.
Before creating the query, a column or parameter in the data model should be created for each lexical reference in the query.
For lexical parameters, initial value must be defined so that report builder uses this value to validate the query with a lexical reference.
Token
If Oracle reports are executed by a concurrent program, (for Oracle Reports Program), then a keyword or a parameter with the same name as in the report builder, should be defined which for each parameter, which is known as taken.
This is used to pass the parameters to the reports from the application (SRS Window)
Request Set
Request set is the group of requests, that can be submitted regularly using a single transaction.
Incompatibility
These are the list of programs that can be defined as incompatible with a pertain program.
If any program is defined as incompatible to a particular program, then that program should not run simultaneously with the concurrent program, because they might interfere with its execution.

- Data group determines which Oracle Data base accounts a responsibilities forms, concurrent programs and reports connect to.
35. What is a Responsibility?
- Responsibility defines Applications Privileges
- A responsibility is a level of authority in Oracle Applications that lets users only those Oracle Applications functions and data appropriate to their roles in an organization.
- Each user has at list one or more responsibilities and several users can share the same responsibility 22
* Each responsibility allows access to
- a specific application or a set of applications.
- A set of books
- A restricted list of windows that an user can navigate
- Reports in a specific application.
36. What are security Attributes?
- Security Attributes are used by Oracle self service web Applications to allow rows of data to be visible to specified users responsibilities based on the specific data contained in the row.
37. What is a Profile Option?
- profile options are the set of changeable options that affects how the application looks and behaves.
- By setting profile options, the applications can be made to react in different ways for different users depending on the specific user attributes.
38. What are steps involved in developing a flex field?

42) What are the types of Concurrent Managers 25
3 MASTER CONCURRENT MANAGERS:
1. Internal Conccurent Manager (ICM): This is the one which monitors all other CMs
2. Standard Manager (SM) : This takes care of report running and batch jobs
3. Conflict Resolution Manager (CRM): checks concurrent program definitions for incompatability checks.
We cannot delete a concurrent manager... but we can disable it... but it's not recommended.
43) multi org set up
Begin dbms_application_info.set_client_info('ORG_ID');
end;
44. What is the relation between Responsibility, Menu and Request Group?
Responsibility: - A responsibility is a set of authority in Oracle Apps that lets users access only that functionality of the application appropriate to their roles.
Menu: - A menu is a hierarchical arrangement of functions and menus of functions that appears in the Navigator. Each responsibility has a menu assigned to it.
Request Group: - it is a collection of reports or concurrent programs. A system Administrator defines report groups in order to control user access to reports and concurrent programs. Only a system administrator can create a request group.
45. What is a function, how to create one?
A function is apart of an application‟s functionality that is registered under a unique name for the purpose of assigning to it to, or excluding it from, a menu (and by extension, responsibility). There are several types of functions: - Form Functions, SubFunctions, and
Non-form functions. We often refer to a form function simply as a form.
46. What is meant by APPL_TOP?
Environment variable
An operating System variable that describes an aspect of the environment in which your application runs. For example, you can define an environment variable to specify a directory path. 26
$APPL_TOP: An environment variable that denotes the installation directory for Oracle Application Object Library and your other Oracle applications. $APPL_TOP is usually one directory level above each of the product directories (which are often referred to as $PROD_TOP or $PRODUCT_TOP or $<prod>_TOP).
47. Explain briefly where are the Custom.pll, Forms, Reports, Sql Loader Control files, Shell Script source code and executables files kept?
Custom.pll - $AU_TOP/resource
Forms - $PROD_TOP/Forms/US
Reports - $PROD_TOP/Reports/US
SQL Control Files - $PROD_TOP/Bin
Shell Scripts - $PROD_TOP/Bin
48. When is Custom.pll used?
Custom.pll is used while making new or customizing standard oraclke forms in apps. It contains all the forms libraries for apps.
49. What are profile options; at what levels can these be set?
A user profile is a set of changeable options that affects the way the applications run. Oracle
Applications object Library establishes a value for each option in a user‟s profile when the
User logs on or changes responsibility.
System Profile: - Profile option can be set for the user community.
User Profile: - Provide Oracle Apps with standard information which describes a user,
Application, Responsibility and site. At each profile level user profile options can be set.
50. How can you know the form (fmb) name when you open a form in Apps?
Help
51. Where do you create a table and sequence in Apps? Is it APPS schema?
In custom schema and then grant privileges on it to APPS schema.
52. Where are Views and Procedures created? 27
Views: - Views are to be created only in APPS.
Procedures: - In custom schema and the grant it to APPS schema.
53. How can you tell who last updated a particular row in a form?
54. You have logged onto a Responsibility, how do you know what operating unit are you on?
55) Can new profiles be created? If so how?
Yes. Application Developer.
56)How do you register a report? Explain passing of parameters between a concurrent program
Definition and report?
After developing the report (.rdf), FTP it to the UNIX server.
Define executable.
Define concurrent program and attach the executable.
Attach the concurrent program to a request group.
57) What is the approach to create a new form to be used in Oracle Apps?
The TEMPLATE form is the required starting point of all development of new forms. Start
Developing each new form by copying the TEMPLATE.fmb file, located in
$AU_TOP/forms/US(or your language and platform equivalent), to local directory and
Rename it as appropriate.
58. Explain Value Set? Difference between a Table Validated and Independent Value Set?
A set of values against which Oracle Application Object Library validates values your end
users enter when running your program. You define your value set by specifying validation 28
rules, format constraints and other properties. For example, you could define a value set to
contain values that are character strings, validated from a table in your application. You can
Specify that oracle application Object Library use the same value set to validate different
Report parameters. You can also use value sets that you use in your flex fields to validate
Your report parameters.
59. How do you create a table validated value set dependent on another value set?
Use :$FLEX$.<Value set name> in the where condition.
60. What is difference between a concurrent request and a concurrent request set?
61. What are the two mandatory parameters required for running a PL/SQL Procedure based concurrent program?
Errbuf, Retcode
62. How can you ensure that only one instance of a concurrent program runs?
Check the „Run Alone‟ check box in Concurrent program registration window.
63. Within a PL/SQL procedure which API is to be used to extract a profile value?
FND_PROFILE.GET
64. How do you set the operating unit context in a report?
Begin
Dbms_application_info.set-client-info(<Organization_Id>);
End;
65. Can you submit a concurrent request from the operating system directly?
Write a Shellscript.
Login to database
Run the function FND_REQUEST.Submit()
66. Explain how to generate a trace file for a pl/sql concurrent program for tuning?
Check the‟Enable Trace‟ check box in concurrent program registration window. 29
67. How do you “write” to the concurrent request Log and Output file?
FND_FILE.PUT(FND_FILE.LOG or FND_FILE.OUTPUT, <Text>);
68. What is the difference between Operating Unit and Inventory Organization?
Operating Unit :- An Organization that uses Oracle Cash management, Order management and Shipping Execution, Oracle Payables, Oracle Purchasing, and Oracle Receivables. It may be a sales Office, a division, or a dept. An operating unit is associated with a legal entity. Information is secured by operating unit for these applications. Each user sees information only for their operating unit. To run any of these applications, you choose a responsibility associated with an organization classified as an operating unit.
An organization for which you track inventory transactions and balances, and/or an organization that manufactures or distributes products. Examples, include (but are not limited to) manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and sales offices. The following applications secure information by inventory organization: Oracle inventory, Bills of Material, Engineering, and Work in Process, Master Scheduling/MRP, Capacity, and Purchasing receiving functions. To run any of these applications, you must choose an organization that has been classified as an inventory organization.
