Give a brief overview on OrderManagement.
order mangement deals with order to cash

first we have to enter the order

order returns----sales order

we have to enter the order in headers snd lines information when we enter the order it
shows entered in both headers and lines after that we have to book the order
after entering it shows booked in headers and awaiting shipping in lines
it shows the release status --R means ready for release after that we have to do pick
release when picked it shows booked in headers in headers and picked in lines it shows
the flow status code changes from R to Y means Pick Confirmed in the back ground two
concurrent will run
1) Pick Slip Report
2) Shipping Exceptions report After that we have to do shipping while shipping the flow
status code will change from Y to C means Ship Confirmed in the background it runs 5
Concurrent programs Automatically
1)Bill of Lading
2) Commercial Invoice
3)Packing slip Report
4)Interface trip stop
5)Vehicle load sheet Details
After that we have to run the workflow Background Program
After that we have to do the Invoices
After that we have to do the receipts
After that we will transfer it in to General Ledger

HRMS
how many types of profile option is there in oracle hrms. why it is necessary?
HR:Security Profile
HR:User Type as Only HR/HR with Payroll
HR:Cross Business Group as yes/no, if yes.. then user can
access data from other Business group too.
MO:Operating Unit, if Multi Org is set up for a BG then
this is mandatory to setup ow optional .
Profile Option provides the flexibility to the oracle
application ,they are acting like a global variables .It
eliminates the need to hard code the logic.

Let me give you one example:-

An organization have two departments say D1 and D2.We want
Manager of D1 can not view the employees of D2 and vice
versa.Then we will set the profile options MO:Department
name or the organization name against the profile option.
how many types of extra information is there?
Following Extra Information (EIT) Types are available in
HRMS :

1. Location
2. Job
3. Position

map it into the software
HOW CAN U KNOW TABLE IS REGISTERD IN APPS?

Using ad_dd package.

Example:
First register the table:
EXECUTE ad_dd.register_table
('FND','TABLE_NAME','T',pct_free,pct_used)

Then register the columns:

EXECUTE ad_dd.register_columns
('FND','TABLE_NAME','COLUMN_NAME',
sequence, 'DATATYPE',col_width,nullable,translate)

use the following query to check the same:

select table_name from fnd_tables

where table_name = <table name>

table name = mention the table name, which u want to know

whether it is registered in APPS.

In which table or database definition we can find the link of organization and operation
units.?

The view ORG_ORGANIZATION_DEFINITIONS contents link of

organization and operation units.
ORGANIZATION_ID column IS FOR organization_id AND
OPERATING_UNIT IS FOR org_id

How relation will be made between modules in oracle financial?

set_of_books_id from gl_set_of_books table

and org_id from hr_all_organizations table
while registering executable and concurent program we register both with application
name? so my question is why we are defining in both concurent program and executable?
The application in the Executable shows where the execution file is placed .
The Application given in the concurrent program gives the information where the out file
and log file has to write for that concurrent program.
How to register a form and stored procedure in oracle apps
form registration:
go to application developer responsibility goto application menu--> select form--> give
form name and application name and user form name
then go to -->function give function name and user function name, and give form name
then go to menu --> attach funcation name to menu run form resposibility

stored procedure registration:

go to system adminstration responsibility
goto program menu--then select executable define executable a name and select
execution method as pl/sql stored program then defin concurrent program
then goto security define resoponsibility and then goto restquest group and submit the
concurrent program
In a Standard form a DFF is disable?How we can Enable it?
To enable the DFF on the form, follow the steps below.

Open the form using the form builder and write the following code in WHEN-NEW-
FORM-INSTANCE trigger of the form. Standard forms (already defined by oracle) will
have this code already present in the appropriate triggers.

FND_DESCR_FLEX.DEFINE (
BLOCK=> 'TEST_DESC',
FIELD=> 'DESC_FLEX_TEST',
APPL_SHORT_NAME=>'HR',
DESC_FLEX_NAME=>'DESC_FLEX_TEST'
);

Where BLOCK is the name of block containing DFF item FIELD is the DFF item on
form
APPL_SHORT_NAME is the short name of the application with which the flex field is
registered DESC_FLEX_NAME is the name of the registered flexfield

Also write the following code in 'WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE' at the form level:

FND_FLEX.EVENT ('WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE');

In SQL Loader i have 100 Records to be loaded into my table. How do i load the first 30
Records and skip the last 10 Records within a single .ctl file ? So my total no.of records
to be loaded would be 60. Could anybody help me in this ?
In Control file
At the top add this line.
(OPTIONS SKIP=30 RECORDS=60)

skip option skips first 30 records

Records option load 60 records
Automatically last 10 Records will not be considered by SQL Loader.
Assume i have three Procedures defined in a Package Spec. I have created the Package
Specification. now i create the Package Body by including the three procedures in
addition to that i include a fourth procedure which is not included in my Package Spec. I
compile the Package Body. Will the Package body Compile ? What will the end result ?
what will happen if the execute the package by calling the 4th procedure ?
Yes the Package body will be compiled.

The end result is you have a package with 3 Public procedures and 1 Private Procedure.

You cannot call the 4th procedure as it is a Private Procedure available within the
Package only
We have to show a logo/image in a report? what are the steps and which format it is?
whether in pdf format is applicable or not?
layout model-->header section we will chose file--import image.which part u kept the
image it will come at browser.
It is applicable only in PDF Format and PS.
Where we can write a PL/SQL code in report triggers?
In report we have to show two Layout? how it is and how we can see from where it?
yes we can do that one.first create one main frame under that one repeating fram under
that what ever the fields u want put that field.this layout is called master layout.

again we will create same menu,one main frame and one repeating frame under that
create fields.

use the Additional Layout tool in the tool box of layout editor.
How to create multi-layout reports ? If we have 5 layouts , then how to get into the 4th
one ?
first create the 5 layouts.after thet create one user parameter.and u will wtite formate
trigger for each layout.
after that u will run the report.then that user parameter wiil ask some value/character.
then u will give which name u r giving 4th layout.

After completing Report customization process.suppose we have 10 report parameter in

report so, that we re-register that parameter in concurrent program?
what are the parameters contained report this parameters we must register in concurrent
program token values.
Steps for DFF registration
1. create a DFF table a module specific schema.
2. create a pbulic synonym in APPS schema.
3. register the table in AOL module.
4. register DFF table with Aol Module.
In custom.pll what are the events we can Not write?
Through CUSTOM.pll we can override the below events only

1) ZOOM
2) WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE
3) WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE
4) WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE
5) WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE
6) WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD

We can not write for other events.

What is the Lookup's and what is the use of lookup's?

What is the Use of User Exit in Oracle apps and when we are developeing the new report
you need to pass one parameter called P_CONC_REQUEST_ID,what is the use of this
parameter and is it mandatory.Can't we develop report without this User exit's and
P_CONC_REQUEST_ID parameter?

Use of user_exit:

user_exit is the program,transfer the data from third

generation language to oracle report builder.

P_CONC_REQUEST_ID:This is default parameter.This is optional one.

Use:generate the concurrent program Request_id.

we can develope without user_exit and p_conc_request_id

How you will Diaplay the Company LOGO In report.Can anyone knows please give
solution?
copy paste the logo on the report layout and run the report to see the output
How You Will display the key flexifields in your report?
BY CALLING THE USEREXIT FND FLEXSQL IN BEFORE REPORT TRIGGER
AND FND FLEXIDVAL FROM FORMULA COLUM

I Have report which is having field at the end of page,,, problem is when i run report data
is overflowing to the next page,,i want the data to come on same page can anybody help
me out?
In Repeating Frame property make vertical space between frames and Horizontal space
between frames property = 0
And in same property list go for advanced layout In that make print object on
property = First page.

try to put page protect is yes, then your report will be fit on same page

what is the difference between character mode,bitmap mode?

In Oracle Reports Designer, bitmap mode, you can make "C" bold and in a different font
and point size than "c". This is because you are generating postscript output.
Postscript is a universal printer language and any postscript printer is able to interpret
your different design instructions.

In Oracle Reports Designer, character mode, the APPLICATIONS STANDARDS

REQUIRE the report to be designed in ONE FONT/ ONE CHARACTER SIZE.
Character mode reports
generate ASCII output. In ASCII you cannot dynamically change the font and character
size. The standard is in effect so a report prints as identically as possible from
both conventional and postscript printers.
in one report using two layout models.if yes how to do?
What are the Major differences bteween key flexfields ,descriptive flexfields?
key flexfields:capture the key information in code language each code have specific
meaninig
descriptive flexfields:capture the extra information
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.

KFF is based on 2 table structure where as DFF is based on a single table structure

A Key Flexfield as the name suggests is a 'Key' building block of a module and is
'Required' for defining the structure for objects of that module Eg. The Account
Structure, Item Structure, etc. A descriptive FF again as the name suggests helps more in
describing an object (like a transaction or screen), more than the available fields on
that Screen
Key flexfield captures mandatory business information like company,
department,account etc.,whereas Descriptive flexfield captures additional business
information like name of the company's MD etc.,

KFF displays like text item but DFF displays like [ ] .

A dff is a lables ,prompt less field provided on the form of oracle applications
package.IT is enabled in AOL module.it is an optional flexfield .it is used to capture
the additional data which is unque to client information.

A key flex field is used to capture the key information of an organisation.which is

mandatory.

Key flexfields are flexible enough to let any organization use the code scheme they want,
without programming.

Descriptive flexfields provide customizable ?expansion space? on your forms. You can
use descriptive flexfields to track additional information, important and unique to your
business, that would not otherwise be captured by the form

1.KFF is simply enter data and get results and DFF is user want require when the get
output.

2. KFF is did't give any expance space i.e additional space, and DFF is provide additional
expance the kff

3.kff is out puts or results giving the with in the four walls only. and DFF is giving the
results or outputs beyond the 4 walls

4.KFF is not required any coding and DFF is may be required when the user want.

After which stage can not cancel the order?

order status has changed to shipped/interfaced/closed these orders only not able to
cancelremaining all other order status are possible to cancel.

dff is used to capture more information from end user with out changing table
sturcture.dff will store in attributes. sff is having context senstive .

kff is intelligent key.it will store in segments.it will store data in code combinations.it is
having flexfield qulaifier and segment qulaifier.

flexfield qualifier is used to identify particular segment for flexfield.

segment qulaifier is used identify particular value of the segment.
What are the Major differences between appcore.pll and appcore2.pll
why r u move in the cus_top only why not move another top?
when u move the other top the orcale corporation may notsupport for any modifications u
need so that we can't move to other oracle top.
customer has his own top like cust_top,it doesn't related to oracle.

After making customizations to ur objects we will move those objects to custom_top.If

you move those objects into product tops.one problem will be there,i.e when ever oracle
apply patches to product tops,previously wht ever you apply customizations to your
objects will be going to overriden.

item level, Record levle, block level, form level
wht is format trigger?
The trigger can be used to dynamically change the formatting attributes of the object.
Format triggers are PL/SQL functions executed before the object is formatted.The
function must return a Boolean value (TRUE or FALSE). Depending on whether the
function returns TRUE or FALSE, the current instance of the object is included or
excluded from the report output. You can access format triggers from the Object
Navigator, the Property Palette, or the PL/SQL Editor.

an application table

5) Special ------ values set uses a flex field itself.

6) Pair ------ two flex fields together specify a
range of valid values.
7) Translatable independent ----- input must exist on
previously defined list of values;translated values can be used.

8) Translatable dependent ------- input is checked against a

subset of values based on a prior values; translated value
can be used.
