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.

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,

( 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.

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.
69. What is Set of Books?
A financial reporting entity that uses a particular chart of accounts, functional currency,
And accounting calendar. Oracle General Ledger secures transaction information (such as journal entries and balances) by set of books. When you use Oracle General Ledger, you choose a responsibility that specifies a set of books. You then see information for that set of books only.
70. What is Item Validation Organization?
The organization that contains your master list of items. You define it by setting the OM: Item Validation Organization parameter. You must define all items and bills in your Item Validation Organization, but you also need to maintain your items and bills in separate organizations if you want to ship them from other warehouses.
OE_System_
71. Mention the table or views where Inventory Org, Items, Set of Books, GL Code Combinations, Operating Unit, Location, Customers, Vendors, and Invoices are stored in Apps.

Items are defined in an Inventory Master Organization.
74)What is the difference between key flexfield and Descriptive flexfield?
Key Flexfield is used to describe unique identifiers that will have a better meaning than using number IDs. e.g a part number, a cost centre etc Desc Flex is used to just capture extra information. Key Flexfields have qualifiers whereas Desc Flexfields do not. Desc Flexfields can have context sensitive segments while Key flexfields cannot.
And one more differenct that KFF displays like text item but DFF displays like [ ] .
75)Which procedure should be called to enable a DFF in a form?
FND_DESCR_FLEX.DEFINE (BLOCK => 'BLOCK_NAME' ,FIELD => 'FORM_FIELD_NAME' ,APPL_SHORT_NAME => 'APP_NAME' ,DESC_FLEX_NAME => 'DFF_NAME' );
76)Which procedure should be used to make the DFF read only at run time?
FND_DESCR_FLEX.UPDATE_DEFINITION()
77)What is the difference between flexfield qualifier and segment qualifier? 31
Flexfiled qualifier identifies segement in a flexfield and segment qualifier identifies value in a segment.
There are four types of flexfiled qualifier 1) Balancing segment qualifier 2) cost center 3) natural account and 4) intercompnay
segemtn qualifier :- 1) allow budgeting 2) allow posting 3) account type 4) contral account and 5) reconciliation flag
78)Where do concurrent request logfiles and output files go?
The concurrent manager first looks for the environment variable $APPLCSF If this is set, it creates a path using two other environment variables: $APPLLOG and $APPLOUT It places log files in $APPLCSF/$APPLLOG Output files go in $APPLCSF/$APPLOUT So for example, if you have this environment set: $APPLCSF = /u01/appl/common $APPLLOG = log $APPLOUT = out The concurrent manager will place log files in /u01/appl/common/log, and output files in /u01/appl/common/out Note that $APPLCSF must be a full, absolute path, and the other two are directory names. If $APPLCSF is not set, it places the files under the product top of the application associated with the request. So for example, a PO report would go under $PO_TOP/$APPLLOG and $PO_TOP/$APPLOUT Logfiles go to: /u01/appl/po/9.0/log Output files to: /u01/appl/po/9.0/out Of course, all these directories must exist and have the correct permissions. Note that all concurrent requests produce a log file, but not necessarily an output file.

96. How to get the data from the views in Multi_ORG views ?
A. Using the profiles and client info package.
Eg:
SELECT * FROM po_headers – this is multi org view
If we can‟t get the data with the above query then we have to write a procedure as shown below.
DECLARE
x NUMBER:=0; 39
BEGIN
x:=fnd_profile.value('org_id');
fnd_client_info.set_org_context (204);
END;
Compile and run the query once again.
97) What is Responsibility / Request Group?
Ans: Responsibility is used for security reason like which Responsibility can do what type of jobs etc.
Set of Responsibility is attached with a Request group. When we attach the request group to a concurrent program, that can be perform using all the Responsibilities those are attached with Request group.
98) What is DFF?
Ans: The Descriptive Flexi field is a field that we can customize to enter additional information for which Oracle Apps product has not provided a field.
Ex. ATP program calculates for those warehouses where Inventory Org Type is DC or Warehouse in DFF Attribute11 of MTL_PARAMETERS table.
99) What is Value Set?
Ans: Value Sets define and store the valid items of data, which may be entered into a field.
Key Flexfields, Descriptive Flexfields and many standard fields use Value Sets.
Oracle already comes with hundreds of Value Sets.
We define additional Value Sets to support our own user-defined Key and Descriptive Flexfields (although we may use any existing standard Value Sets if they suit our purpose).
In defining a new Value Set, we are defining the physical format of valid data, which can reside in that Value Set.
Data in a Value Set can be of several types:
Independently loaded into a Value Set (through a standard form).
Resident in a table (to which we direct the Value Set definition).
There could be No Validation (any data can go into the field, but still subject to the formatting rules.)
Dependent on the value of data in a preceding Independent segment (loaded through a standard form).
Ex: For Supplies & Accessories CC in ATP, we define GEMS_GPO_ASSIGN_SET value set for the assignment set associated with that OU.
100) What is multi-org?
Ans: It is data security functionality in Oracle 10.6 and above. Applicable User responsibilities are created and attached to specific Operating Unit. User can access the data that belongs to the Operating unit they login under. 40
The benefit is it enables multiple operating units to use a single installation of various modules, while keeping transaction data separate and secure by operating unit.
It has an effect on the following modules:
Order Entry
Receivable
Payable
Purchasing
Project Accounting
101) Can you explain the Organization structure?
Ans:
a) Business Unit / Group : It represents the highest level in Organization structure and has no accounting impact. It determines which employees will be available to Set Of Books and Operating Units.
Ex: Consolidated Enterprise / a major division / an operating company.
b) Set Of Books: It is a financial reporting entity that uses a particular
Chart of accounts,
Functional currency and
Accounting calendar.
It is the highest level with accounting significance. Document Sequencing (important in Europe) is at the Set of Books level. Also Period open/close is at the Set of Books level.
A Set of Books is associated with only one Business Group. A Business Group may be assigned several Sets of Books i.e Multiple sets of books can share the same business group if they share the same business group attributes.
Base Table: apps.gl_sets_of_books
c) Legal Entity: A legal company for which you prepare fiscal or tax reports.
Each Legal Entity is associated with only one Set of Books. A Set of Books may have multiple Legal Entities.
Base Table: apps.hr_legal_entities
d) Operating Unit: An organization that uses oracle order management, cash management, shipping execution, payables, purchasing and receivables.
It may be a sales office, a division, or a department. Standard reports are at the Operating Unit level.
An operating unit is associated with a legal entity.
Base Table: apps.hr_operating_units
e) Inventory Organization : An organization for which you track inventory transactions and balances, and/or an organization that manufactures or distributes products.
An Operating Unit may have multiple Inventory Organizations.
Ex: manufacturing plants, warehouses, distribution centers, and sales offices. 41
Base View: apps.org_organization_definitions
f) Subinventory: An inventory organization has a number of subinventories associated with it.
Base Table: apps.mtl_secondary_inventories (secondary_inventory_name = subinventory name)
g) Locator : These are the different locations in side a subinventory.
Base Table: apps.mtl_item_locations
105)What are the mandatory parameters in Concurrent program?
Ans: errbuf and Retcode (In case pl/sql store procedure)
p_conc_request_id (In case Oracle Report, it is an user-parameter)
106)Why we use token field for Concurrent program?
Ans: The Token is used as for binding purpose. The parameter value is passed to the .rdf/procedure through this token. The input (user) parameter value passes to the report / stored procedure after binding with this token. The concurrent program won‟t get impact even the user parameter names get changed, but got impacted when the token name changed.
107) What are the mandatory parameters in concurrent programs?
Ans: errbuf
errcode.
108)Those are IN or OUT parameters.
Ans: Out Parameters
109)What is Request group?
Ans: Responsibility is used for security reason like which Responsibility can do what type of jobs etc.
Set of Responsibility is attached with a Request group. When we attach the request group to a concurrent program, that can be perform using all the Responsibilities those are attached with Request group.
110)What is MultiOrg? 42
Ans: It is data security functionality in Oracle 10.6 and above. Applicable User responsibilities are created and attached to specific Operating Unit. User can access the data that belongs to the Operating unit they login under.

Ans: It is used for Proc*C in executable field
112)How can we call a Report from Form in Apps?
Thru concurrent prog
113) what are the setup we need to do before running into Oracle Apps.
Ans: Go to Oracle Apps > System Administraror (Responsibility) > Create a User using SSO > Add responsibility
Switch to COE Dev Sys Administrator (Responsibility) > Add the Responsibility that is attached to the newly created User > menue > exclude / include the function according to the requirement
114) What is multi_org?
Ans: It is data security functionality in Oracle 10.6 and above. Applicable User responsibilities are created and attached to specific Operating Unit. User can access the data that belongs to the Operating unit they login under.
The benefit is it enables multiple operating units to use a single installation of various modules, while keeping transaction data separate and secure by operating unit.
It has an effect on the following modules:
Order Entry
Receivable
Payable
Purchasing
Project Accounting
115) What is the difference between po_headers & po_headers_all?
Ans: Here comes the concept of multi_org. po_headers contains data that is irrespective of multi_org i.e any supplier can view all the records. In case of po_headers_all 43
116) What is the basic requirement that we need to set before starting a form in Oracle Apps
Ans:
a) FTP the templet.fmb From $au_top/bin To Local m/c
b) Rename the templet.fmb as User defined name
c) Trigger Level Change: Pre_Form : app_window.set_window_position('BLK_ORG', 'FIRST_WINDOW'); -- 1st Window Name
set_window_property('BLK_ORG',title,'Form name') -- 1st Window Name, caption
Block Level Change: Rename Default_block
Form Level Change: Property Panel > Navigation > First Navigation Data Block > (Set A Block Name)
Program Unit Level: App_custom > (set the 1st window name)
118) What is the API we use to see the message from log file
Ans:
When we use an API, it automatically stores the error message in a pl/sql table i.e creating a log of the errors.
We can see those error messages thougt fnd_message_pub API
119)There is a check box called Use in SRS. What is its use
SRS stands for Standard Request Submit. We can execute concurrent program by directly passing parameters. On checking this „Use In SRS‟check box, we can independently use the concurrent program.
120)Do you know Extension table?
Ans: Unlike database table, it store outside the database like BFile (content store outside the DB but the location store in DB like pointer). It contains metadata only. So no DML operation (except SELECT, Group by, Order By) can possible.
121)Why do we call FND SRWINIT from Before Report Trigger
A. FND SRWINIT fetches concurrent request information and sets up the profile options. It must be included if one is using any ORACLE APPLICATION OBJECT LIBRARY features in his report (such as concurrent processing)
122)Why do we call FND SRWEXIT from After Report Trigger
A. FND SRWEXIT frees all the memory allocations done in other Oracle Applications user exits. It must be included if one is using any ORACLE APPLICATION OBJECT LIBRARY features in his report (such as concurrent processing)
123) Why do we call FND FLEXSQL from the Before Report Trigger?
A. One need to pass the concatenated segment values from the underlying code combinations table to the user exit so that it can display appropriate data and derive any description and values from switched value sets as needed. One gets this information by calling the AOL user exit FND FLEXSQL from the before report Trigger. 44
124. If u call the user exit FND FLEXSQL with MODE = “ WHERE” from the Before Report Trigger. What will it do?
A. This user exit populates a lexical parameter that you specify with the appropriate SQL fragment at run time. You include this lexical parameter in the WHERE clause of the report query. This user exit is called once for each lexical to be changed.
125. If u call the user exit FND FLEXSQL with MODE = “ ORDER BY” from the Before Report Trigger. What will it do?
A. This user Exit populates the lexical parameter that one specifies with the appropriate SQL fragment at run time. One includes this lexical parameter in the ORDER BY clause of the report query. This user exit is called once for each lexical to be changed.
126. How can we display flexfield segment values, descriptions, and prompts on the report?
A. Create a formula Column. Call the user exit FND FLEXIDVAL as the formula for this column. This user exit automatically fetches more complicated information such as descriptions and prompts so that one does not has to use complicated table joins to the flex field tables.
127. Name some options of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A CODE, APP_SHORT_NAME, OUTPUT, MODE, DISPLAY, SHOWDEPSEG, NUM or MULTINUM, TABLEALIAS, OPERATOR, OPERAND1, OPERAND2.
128. Describe CODE option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specify the flex field code for the report (for example, GL#, MCAT).
129. Describe the APP_SHORT_NAME option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specifies the short name of the application that owns the flex field (for example: SQLGL, INV)
130. Describe the OUTPUT option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specify the name of the lexical parameter to store the SQl fragment. One uses this lexical later in the report when defining the SQL statement that selects the flexfield values. the datatype of this parameter should be character.
131. Describe the MODE option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specify the mode to use to generate the SQL fragment . valid mode are :
SELECT: Retrieves all segments values in an internal (non- displayable format).
WHERE: Restrict the query by specifying constraints on flexfield columns. The fragment returned includes the correct decode statement if one specifies MULTINUM. One must also specify an OPERATOR and OPERANDS.
HAVING: Same calling procedures and functionality as WHERE.
ORDER BY: Order required information by flexfield columns. The fragment Orders your flexfield columns and separates them with a comma. The fragment returned includes the correct decode statement, one specifies in MULTINUM.
132. Describe the DISPLAY option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. One uses the DISPLAY token with the MODE token . the DISPLAY parameter allows you to specify segments that represent specified flexfield qualifiers or specified segments numbers , 45
where the segment numbers are the order in that the segments appear in the flexfield window, not the segment number specified in the Define Key Segments form.
Eg. If your MODE is SELECT and you specify DISPLAY = “ALL” then the SELECT statement includes all the segments of the flexfield. . Similarly, if your MODE is WHERE and you specify DISPLAY = “ALL”, then your WHERE clause includes all segments.
133. Describe the SHOWDEPSEG option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. SHOWDEPSEG = “N” disables automatic addition of depended upon segments to the order criteria. The default is “Y”. This token is valid only for MODE = “ODER BY” In FLEXSQL.
134. Describe the NUM option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specify the name or lexical or source column that contains the flexfield structure information. If the flexfield uses just one structure, specify NUM only and use a lexical parameter to hold the value. If the flexfield uses multiple structures, specify MULTINUM only and use a source column to hold the value. The default value is 101.
135. Describe the TABLE ALIAS option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. You use TABLE ALIAS if your SELECT joins to other flexfield tables or uses a self – join.
136. Describe the OPERATOR option of the FND FLEXSQL user exit
A. Specify an operator to use in the WHERE clause.

Ans:- There are 8 types of Values Sets.
a. None (Non Validate at all) (Validation is Minimal)
b. Independent (Input must exist on previous defined list of values)
c. Dependent (Input is checked against a subset of values based on prior Value)
d. Table (Input is checked against a subset of values in an application table)
e. Special (advanced) (Value set uses a flexfield itself)
f. Pair (advanced) (Two Flexfields together specify a range of valid values)
g. Translatable Independent (Input must exist on previous defined list of values. Translated value can be used)
h. Translatable Dependent. (Input is checked against a subset of values based on a prior value; translated value can be used)
(Note:- When you first define your flexfields, you choose how many segments
You want to use and what order you want them to appear. You also
Choose how you want to validate each of your segments. The decisions
You make affect how you define your value sets and your values.)
165) How to run a concurrent program. What all concurrent programs u have
created.
Ans:- (Definition :- A concurrent program is an instance of an execution file, along with
parameter definitions and incompatibilities. Concurrent programs use concurrent program executables to locate the correct execution file.)
Oracle Tool Concurrent Program * A concurrent program written in
Oracle Reports, PL/SQL package procedures,
SQL*Loader, SQL*Plus, Host Scripting.
How to Run : * Write a execution file and place in correct directory.
Establish executables in Oracle apps specify execution file and method.
Define Concurrent Program (Program, Parameters and Incompatibilities)
Call your Program (- Thu application form, from other concurrent program.
- OR through standard request submission, you must check the „USE in SRS check box‟ and register your program parameters when you define your concurrent program. Add your program into the request security group for your custom application.)
I have created reports through concurrent program, load(sql*loader/pl-sql pkg-proc) the file through concurrent program.
166) What is parameter in apps and from where u can create it.
Ans:- Parameters only using in report, you can create in defining the report in
apps (you can create the parameter there only).
167)What all are the tables used in the modules u have worked on.
*In GL – I have worked on GL_JE_HEADERS(JOURNALS HEADER),GL_JE_LINES(JOURNAL LINES), GL_JE_BACHES(JOURNAL BATCHES), GL_SET_OF_BOOK(SET_OF_BOOK_ID),
*In PO- I have worked on PO_HEADER_ALL…..
168)What is Profile? Explain different levels of Profile.
Ans:- A user profile is a set of changeable options that affects the way your
applications run. Oracle Application Object Library establishes a value
for each option in a user‟s profile when the user logs on or changes 50
responsibility. Your user can change the value of profile options at any
time a) To create Profile Option. ( Profile Option can created by developer in application developer area) b)set the value (Values of the profile option , who will have what value at various levels is set by SYSADMIN). Oracle Application Object Library provides many options that. (Edit profile feature for every user is available to set any value to allow the user).your users can set to alter the user interface of your applications to satisfy their individual preferences.
Profile Option – set at run time like – User Related, responsibility, Sequence, Printer, Security.
Values in 4 Levels(HIEARCHY WISE) :-
A. USER
B. RESPONSIBILITY
C. APPLICATION
D. SITE
Application Developer create the profile.
System Administrator make profile option.
(NOTE:- If any change in value, it will active when you re-login or switch
to the responsibility.)
( Usage in the multi-tier, the profile is biggest impact)
169)How to restrict the data for a responsibility as per the ORG-ID
Ans:-Through Multi – Org(MO) u can restrict the data for a responsibility as per the ORG-ID. Only in GL- Set of book Id you set the value to restrict the data for a responsibility.
170) What is Flexfield? What is flexfield qualifier and what is segment qualifier?
Ans:- A flexfield is made up a segments (Which are actually table columns). Each segment has a name that can be assigned, and set of valid value.
Purpose and Application:-
* Flexibility to implement code structure.
* Flexibility to capture additional information.
Two Types of Flexfields in oracle apps.
1. Key Flexfields (KFF)
2. Descriptive Flexfields (DFF)
A key flexfield segment has a name you assign, and set of valid values you specify. Each value has a meaning which can be specified.
Flexfield Qualifier:-A flexfield qualifier identifies a particular segment of a key flexfield..
Usually an application needs some method of identifying a particular
segment for some application purpose such as security or computations. However, since a key flexfield can be customized so that segments appear in any order with any prompts, the application needs a mechanism other than the segment name or segment order to
use for segment identification.
Segment Qualifier :- A segment qualifier identifies a particular type of value in a single
segment of a key flexfield.
In the Oracle Applications, only the. Accounting Flexfield uses segment qualifiers. You can think of a segment qualifier as an ”identification tag” for a value. In the Accounting Flexfield, segment qualifiers can identify the account type
171) Which flexfield qualifiers are mandatory?
Ans:- „Balancing Segment‟ flexfield qualifier is mandatory. 51
172) Difference Between versions of Apps.(Front end & Database)
Ans:- In backend- Client server architecture (old)/ Three tire architecture
In font end- Client Server Application (old)/ Web Based application
173)What is MULTI-ORG and what is structure of multi-org.
Ans:- Use a single installation of any oracle applications product to support any number of organizations. if those organizations use different set of books.
Support any number or legal entities with a single installation of oracle applications.
Secure access to data so that users can access only the information that is relevant to them.
Structure :- Business Unit
-HRMS(Employee)
-GL(Set of Books)(Currency, Calendar, Chart of Account)
|
Balancing Segment(You can do multiple balancing segment)
-Operating Units (Purchase, Selling, Fixed Asset, Payable,
Receivables)
-Inventory Organizations (Storing Items, Transaction Happening,
Ware Housing)
(Note:- Means if you maintaining GL(set of book id), If u have operating unit, if you
have inventory then its called MULTI-ORG)
174)What is difference between ORG_ID and ORGANIZATION_ID in Multi-Org.
At where we can set ORG_ID and ORGANIZATION_ID level it comes in the
structure.
Ans:-A Global Variable exists in the oracle database called CLIENT_INFO, which is 64 bytes long. The first 10 bytes are used to store the operating unit ID(or ORG_ID) for the multiple organization support feature.
Multi-Org views are partitioned by ORG_ID. The ORG_ID value is stored in CLIENT_INFO variable.(It comes in AP,PO,AR,OM level)
ORGANIZATION_ID – Its for Inventory, Mfg, & BOM.
15.Q.What are the default types of parameters. What is the use of each one of it.
Ans:-******
175)ORG_ID can be set at master levels or transaction level.
Ans:- ORG_ID can be set at transaction Level.
176)Differnet type of execution methods in Conc.Progs. Explain Each Type.
Ans:- a.Oracle Reports- You can register your report as executable file type is oracle reports.
b. PL/SQL Package Procedure - You can register your PL/SQL Package Procedure as executable file type is oracle PL/SQL Package Procedure.
1. SQL Loader- You can register your SQL Loader SQL Loader is your executable file type.(for data loading)
2. SQL*Plus :- You can register your SQL script as SQL*Plus executable type.
3. Host Scripting:- You can write down Unix Host scripting and register here.
177) What is difference between oracle schema and apps schema.
Ans:-Database Schema-
The APPS schema- is an ORACLE schema that has access to the
complete Oracle Applications data model. This schema is maintained
by Auto Install .
178)What are the objects APPS schema contain. 52
Ans:- The APPS schema contains synonyms to all tables and
sequences as well as all server–side code (stored procedures, views,
and database triggers).
For ERP applications, data partitioning is performed by database
views. These views reside in the APPS Oracle schema and derive the
appropriate operating unit context from an RDBMS variable.
179)When will a New version of flint60 be released?
flint60 is a developer/development tool. Since flint60 can change at any time, the most current flint60 will always obsolete all prior releases. In other words, the development standards implemented in the most current flint60 are the standards to which everyone using flint60 must adhere.
1. How do I register a custom concurrent program?
Step 1: Register a concurrent program executable Navigate to the Define Executable form (AOL Reference manual pg 9-84) This determines the type of program being run, ie an Oracle Report, a C program, a shell script etc. Fill in the executable name, application and execution method. For the Execution File, fill in just the filename. The concurrent manager will look in the appropriate directory under the application's top directory. For spawned programs, the file must be in the bin directory, for Oracle Reports the rdf file must be in the srw directory. For PLSQL concurrent programs, put the name of the stored procedure.
Step 2: Define the concurrent program Navigate to the Define Concurrent Program form (AOL Reference manual pg 9-87) This form links a concurrent program to the executable you just defined, as well as defines the programs parameters, incompatibilities, and other options. Enter the concurrent program name, application, short name and description. Check Standard Submission if you want to be able to submit this program from the Standard Report Submission form. Enter the name of the executable you defined and any report information if necessary. Also define any parameters your program needs here and any incompatibilities.
Step 3: Add the concurrent program to a Report Group First you will need to find the name of the Report Group to use. Go to Security->Responsibility and query the responsibility you want to run the program with. It should show a Report Group name. Query this name in Security->Responsibility->Report Add your new program to the list of available programs. Now when you go to submit a request with this responsibility, you will be able to submit your custom program
180)How do I compile a custom C program?
Spawned programs:
Step 1: Write the code Self-explanatory
Step 2: Compile the source You must use the makefile under $FND_TOP/usrxit Use: make -f $FND_TOP/usrxit/Makefile program.o We do not support using any other makefile
Step 3: Link the program This part is a little tricky. You need to create a custom makefile for this step. Use $FND_TOP/lib/sample.mk as a starting point. Copy this file to the lib directory under your applications top directory. Rename it <short name>.mk (ie fnd.mk, gl.mk etc) Modify this file according to the directions in it. Basically you need to 53
add a target and build commands for your executable. Next, use adrelink to link the executable: adrelink force=y ranlib=y "shortname programname"
" Step 4: Register the program as in the above question
Immediate programs: Just don't do it.
181)How do I run a shell script as a concurrent program?
1: Write the script and call it <name>.prog Place the script under the bin directory under your applications top directory. For example, call the script CUSTOM.prog and place it under $CUSTOM_TOP/bin
bin
2: Make a symbolic link from your script to $FND_TOP/bin/fndcpesr For example, if the script is called CUSTOM.prog use this: ln -s $FND_TOP/bin/fndcpesr CUSTOM This link should be named the same as your script without the .prog extension It should be in the same directory as the script.
3: Register a concurrent program as described above, using an execution method of 'Host' Use the name of your script without the .prog extension as the name of the executable For the example above, you would use CUSTOM CUSTOM
4: Your script will be passed at least 4 parameters, in $1 through $4 These will be: orauser/pwd, userid, username, request_id Any other parameters you define will be passed in $5 and higher. Make sure your script returns an exit status.
define will be passed in $5 and higher. Make sure your script returns an exit status.
5: If your script returns a failure exit status but the concurrent manager does not report the error (shows it as still running normal) apply patch 442824
182)How will u register RDF file and run it? Tell the Sequence?
Steps a. Save the copy of ur reports in rdf file in ur local directory.
b. Transfer or copy the rdf file to cus_top under reports directory through ftp.
C. Then go concurrent program under executable menu where u define executable file and program name
d. Then go to define the program name (which ur executable file name ) and check the srs box and define the parameter and give the parameter name in token
e. Attach the program(request to ur responsibility )
d run the program and view the out put is srs through ur responsibility

185))How do I submit a concurrent request from PL/SQL?
ans : using fnd_request.submit_request .
begin
v_request_id := fnd_request.submit_request(applicationshortname,
concurrentprogramshortname,
description,
paramers)
end 54
commit;
if v_request_id > 0 then
dbms_output.put_line('Successfully submitted')
else
dbms_output.put_line('Not Submitted');
end;
note : to submit a conc program from UNIX/shell scrip we use CONSUB
186) How do I cancel a running concurrent request?
Navigate to the Concurrent Request Summary form Select a request The Sysadmin responsibility can cancel or hold any running request
187) What is the difference between organization id and org_id ?
Organization_id stores inventory organization id ( like 204 for M1)
Org_id stores the OU id corresponding to a operating unit .
188) What is the difference between conversion and interfaces ?
conversion means one time activity interface means periodic activity
example:- to transfer the data old version to new version it is called conversionto transfer the data from staging table to interface table it is called interface , it is process on every day or every hour ........
189) What are the different types of value sets and also explain each briefly ?
Different types of Value sets are,
1) Independent- This Value set contains list of values which does not depends on any other value
2) Dependant- It contains values which depends on any one of the Independant value
3) Pair- combines 2 flex field together to specify range of valid values
4) Special- Uses only 1 flex field structure to specify values
5) Table- This Value set contains list of values from 1 or more than 1 table columns
6) Translatable Dependant- Same as Dependant value set, only translated values are present
7) Translatable Independant- Same as Independant value set, only translated values are present
