How to Clear Apache Cache (Oracle EBS General)

Steps to Clear Apache Cache

Step – 1 Navigate to Functional Administrator responsibility.

Step – 2 Go to: Home > Core Services > Caching Framework
Step – 3 Go to: Global Configuration > Clear All Cache.
Click Apply. Apache Cache is now clear.
Here’s how you can see whether a patch has been applied or not, how many patches have been applied in the given days, patches details and history.

Navigate to System Administrator Responsibility > System Administration > Oracle Applications Manager > Patching and Utilities



– Enter the Number of Days or Date Range to see which Patches have been applied in the given number of days.


– Enter a specific Patch Number to see whether it has been applied or not.


– Click details to see the Patch Details.

Background:
When we run, the following SQL Query/Script will provide the profile option values set at different levels. That is Site, Application, Responsibility, User.
So, this script lists ALL Users/Responsibilities/Applications set against a particular Profile option

SQL Script:
Enter ‘Profile Option Name’ while running this query.
Eg. FND: Debug Log EnabledMO: Operating Unit
[You can get the exact name from table fnd_profile_options_tl]  

  SELECT fpo.profile_option_name SHORT_NAME,
         fpot.user_profile_option_name NAME,
         DECODE (fpov.level_id,
                 10001, ‘Site’,
                 10002, ‘Application’,
                 10003, ‘Responsibility’,
                 10004, ‘User’,
                 10005, ‘Server’,
                 ‘UnDef’)
            LEVEL_SET,
         DECODE (TO_CHAR (fpov.level_id),
                 ‘10001’, ”,
                 ‘10002’, fap.application_short_name,
                 ‘10003’, frsp.responsibility_key,
                 ‘10005’, fnod.node_name,
                 ‘10006’, hou.name,
                 ‘10004’, fu.user_name,
                 ‘UnDef’)
            “CONTEXT”,
         fpov.profile_option_value VALUE
    FROM fnd_profile_options fpo,
         fnd_profile_option_values fpov,
         fnd_profile_options_tl fpot,
         fnd_user fu,
         fnd_application fap,
         fnd_responsibility frsp,
         fnd_nodes fnod,
         hr_operating_units hou
   WHERE     fpo.profile_option_id = fpov.profile_option_id(+)
         AND fpo.profile_option_name = fpot.profile_option_name
         AND fu.user_id(+) = fpov.level_value
         AND frsp.application_id(+) = fpov.level_value_application_id
         AND frsp.responsibility_id(+) = fpov.level_value

         AND fnod.node_id(+) = fpov.level_value
         AND hou.organization_id(+) = fpov.level_value
         AND fpot.user_profile_option_name IN (‘&User_Profile_Option_Name’)
ORDER BY short_name;

Developing XML Publisher Report – Using Data Template as Data Source

Background: 
Developing XML Publisher Report – Using Data Template(.xml) as Data Source and Template(.rtf) as Layout.
Note that, we can use .rdf file as data source. But for this demo we are using Date XML Template.
Prerequisite for the below Example:

1. Create a table
CREATE TABLE demo_products
(  product_code   NUMBER,
   product_name   VARCHAR2 (100));

2. Insert Values
INSERT INTO demo_products
     VALUES (569, ‘Oracle Cost Management’);
3. Issue Commit

Step1: Define Data Template:

The data template is the method by which you communicate your request for data to the data engine.
The data template is an XML document that consists of four basic sections:  

  • Define parameters: In which parameters are declared in child <parameter> elements
  • Define triggers:
  • Define data query: In which the SQL queries are defined in child <sqlStatement> elements
  • Define data structure: In which the output XML structure is defined
 Create Data Template: (Save this file as XXDPDT.xml)
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<dataTemplate name=”demoProductsDT” description=”Demo Products Details” version=”1.0″>
   <parameters>
     <parameter name=”p_product_id” datatype=”number”/>
   </parameters>
  <dataQuery>
    <sqlStatement name=”DQ”>
         <![CDATA[ SELECT product_code, product_name FROM demo_products 
                            WHERE product_code = NVL(:p_product_id,product_code) ]]>
    </sqlStatement>
  </dataQuery>
  <dataStructure>
    <group name=”G_DP” source=”DQ”>
      <element name=”PRODUCT_CODE” value=”product_code”/>
      <element name=”PRODUCT_NAME” value=”product_name”/>
    </group>
  </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
  • This Data Template selects the product details from the demo_products table. It uses a bind parameter to find the product name against the product code.
  • For each bind parameter in the query , we need to define a Parameter in the Concurrent Program

Step 2: Create Data Definition & Associate with Data Template
Navigation: XML Publisher Administrator -> Data Definitions -> Create Data Definition
Screen 1 : Create Data Definition
       Enter the data definition Details and click on Apply. Note down the Code. 
       The code should be used as the short name of the concurrent program.

Screen 2: Associate Data Template
       View Data Definition
Click on ‘Add File’ button to upload Data Template file that was created through step 1
Screen 3: Data Definiton
       Data Template is associated with Data Definition

Step 3: Define a Concurrent Program to generate the Data XML output. 
Note:
1. Output format should be XML
2. Short Name in the concurrent program and Code in the data definition should be same.
Screen 2: Concurrent Program – Parameters
For each parameter in the Data Template, define a parameter in the concurrent program.
The Data Template parameter name should match the concurrent program parameter token
Note:
Token is p_product_id. This is the bind parameter we have used in date template. For every bind parameter used in the data template, we have to define parameter in the concurrent program.
Screen 3: Associate the Concurrent Program to a request group.
Screen 4: Execute the concurrent program “Product Demo Report”and click on the output button get the Data XML. Save the XML file. We will use it to generate the RTF Template.
Screen 5: Concurrent Program Output
Note:
We are getting the output in xml because we didn’t define template & associated yet.

Step 4: Define the RTF Template using the Generated Data XML

Pre-requisite : Install XML Publisher Desktop
After installation following Menus & Toolbars gets added to the MS Word.

Load XML Data generated by Concurrent Program
Data -> Load XML Data
Message after loading the data
Using the Table Wizard as below to create the ‘Table Report Format’ with the columns of demo_products.

Final Output layout look like this.

Save this file with .rtf extension
Step 5: Registering the Template with BI Publisher
Navigation: XML Publisher Administrator -> Templates -> Create Template

Step 6: Run the concurrent program to see the output

Note:

As already mentioned output format can be anything. Here it is pdf. We can select format that we want at the runtime.

FAQ:
What is XDODTEXE used in the Executable section of Concurrent Program?

XDODTEXE is a BI Publisher Data Template Executable. The purpose of this executable is to identify data template file (.xml) and execute the data template to generate the raw xml data, that later can be used by BI Publisher formatting engine to format as as per the layout (RTF, PDF etc).
This executable will be used by all the BI Publisher reports (Concurrent Program) which are using Data Template to generate the xml data.
