Script to register and unregister Custom Tables and Columns

CUSTOM TABLE REGISTRATION
Oracle Applications has eliminated the concurrent program FNDFMRTC for custom application tables from
release 10.6. There is now a PL/SQL routine in the AD_DD package to perform this activity. However, the
procedures in this package require you to provide the kind of information needed to create the table in the first
place. So, why not obtain the information from the database (ALL_TABLES and ALL_TAB_COLUMNS to call
the appropriate procedures in this package recursively to perform the table registrations? And, better yet, why not
make this a registered concurrent PL/SQL program so that it can be submitted from within the application like
FNDFMRTC. This is what my program does. The steps are as follows:
1) Register the custom application within Oracle Applications
2) Register this PL/SQL procedure as a Concurrent Standard Report Submission(SRS)Program with the
parameters:
Schema Name -- Character Uppercase Not Required
Application Short Name Character Uppercase Required
Action -- 1 Character Range of 1 to 6 Required where
1 = register all tables for a schema,
2 = Register a table and all of its columns,
3 = Register a column for a table,
4 = Unregister one column for a table,
5 = Unregister a table and all of its columns,
6 = Unregister all tables for a schema
Table Name Character Upper Case Conditional
Required for Action 2, 3, 4, and 5
Not required for Action 1 and 6
Column Name Character Upper Case Conditional
Required for Action 3 and 4
Not required for Action 1, 2, 5, and 6
3) Create the table(s) in this custom schema using appropriate tool (i.e. sqlplus CREATE TABLE )
4) Run this program
5) Check the log file for errors
6) Only need to register tables that have columns used in flexfields
7) Defaults the DATE type columns to 9 and obtains the appropriate precision for NUMBER from
ALL_TAB_COLUMNS
PLEASE TEST FIRST ON A TEST SYSTEM.
/*Version: 1.0.0 (June 15, 1998)
Purpose: Simplify the task of registration and unregistration of Custom Tables and Columns
Notes: This needs to be run as a registered Concurrent Program
The IN parameters are -- Schema Name
(character upper case not required)
-- Application Short Name
(character upper case required)
-- Action
(1 character range of 1 to 6 required
where
1 = register all tables for a schema,

2 = Register a table and all of its

columns,
3 = Register a column for a table,
4 = Unregister one column for a table,
5 = Unregister a table and all of its
columns,
6 = Unregister all tables for a schema
-- Table Name (character upper case)
required for Action 2,3,4,and 5
not required for Action 1 and 6
-- Column Name (character upper case)
required for Action 3 and 4
not required for Action 1,2,5,and 6)
TEST IT OUT AND USE AT OWN RISK!!!
Any updates/enhancements, please let me know milan_rahman@nrel.gov
Caveats: Defaults the DATE to be WIDTH of 9 instead of 7
Does not default NUMBER to a width of 38 since most have precision
Must have the Custom Application Registered
06/15/98 If i_schema_name IS NULL then obtains the schema_name from
FND tables based on the Application Short Name. Application
must be registered for and the STATUS must be 'L' in
FND_PRODUCT_INSTALLATIONS table for this program
to obtain the Schema Name
