Oracle E-Business R12 - Configuring the Custom Top You are welcome to use AppsHosting documentation in your businesses and websites, but we would really appreciate it if you maintain the links to AppsHosting! Use the following instructions to create a Custom Top in Oracle R12:

1) Create the directory structure for your custom application files. cd $APPL_TOP mkdir custom_top mkdir custom_top/12.0.0 Create the following subdirectories: ./admin ./admin/sql ./admin/odf ./admin/template ./admin/driver ./forms ./forms/US ./html ./lib ./mds ./mesg ./patch ./sql ./bin ./help ./java ./log ./media ./out

./reports ./reports/US 2) Add the custom module into the environment

Site Map -> AutoConfig

Click Add

Run AutoConfig 3) Create new tablespace for database objects: create tablespace ISE datafile '/emea/oracle/visuk09/visuk09data/ISE.dbf' size 10M default storage (initial 10k next 10k) 4) Create schema create user ISE identified by ISE default tablespace ISE temporary tablespace temp quota unlimited on ISE quota unlimited on temp; grant connect, resource to ISE; 5) Register your Oracle Schema Login to Applications with System Administrator responsibility Navigate to Application-->Register Application = ISE Custom Short Name = ISE Basepath = ISE_TOP Description = ISE Custom Application 6) Register Oracle User Naviate to Security-->Oracle-->Register Database User Name = ISE Password = ISE Privilege = Enabled Install Group = 0 Description = ISE Custom Application User 7) Add Application to a Data Group Navigate to Security-->Oracle-->DataGroup Data Group = ISEGroup Description = ISE Custom Data Group Click on "Copy Applications from" and pick Standard data Group, then add the following entry. Application = ISE Custom Oracle ID = APPS Description = ISE Custom Application 8) Create custom request group This will act as a placeholder for any custom reports we wish to make available for the Custom Responsibility (which is defined at a later stage) Navigate to Security-->responsbility-->Request

Group = ISE Request Group Application = ISE Custom Code = ISE Description = ISE Custom Requests We will not define any requests to add to the group at this stage, but you can add some now if required. 9) Create custom menu This will act as a placeholder for any menu items we wish to make available for the Custom Responsibility (which is defined at a later stage) We will create two menus, one for Core Applications and one for Self Service. Navigate to Application-->Menu Menu = ISE_CUSTOM_MENU User Menu Name = ISE Custom Application Menu Type = <leave blank> Description = ISE Custom Application Menu Seq = 100 Prompt = View Requests Submenu = <leave blank> Function = View All Concurrent Requests Description = View Requests Seq = 110 Prompt = Run Requests Submenu = <leave blank> Function = Requests: Submit Description = Submit Requests Menu = ISE_CUSTOM_MENU_SSWA User Menu Name = ISE Custom Application SSWA Menu Type = <leave blank> Description = ISE Custom Application Menu for SSWA 10) Create new responsibility. One for Core Applications and One for Self Service (SSWA) Navigate to Security-->Responsibility-->Define Responsibility Name = ISE Custom Application = ISE Custom Responsibility Key = ISECUSTOM Description = ISE Custom Responsibility Available From = Oracle Applications Data Group Name = ISEGroup Data Group Application = ISE Custom Menu = ISE Custom Application

Request Group Name = ISE Request Group Responsibility Name = ISE Custom SSWA Application = ISE Custom Responsibility Key = ISECUSTOMSSWA Description = ISE Custom Responsibility SSWA Available From = Oracle Self Service Web Applications Data Group Name = ISEGroup Data Group Application = ISE Custom Menu = ISE Custom Application SSWA Request Group Name = ISE Request Group 11) Add responsibility to user Navigate to Security-->User-->Define Add ISE Custom responsibility to users as required. 12) Other considerations You are now ready to create your database Objects, custom Reports, Forms, Packages, etc Create the source code files in the ISE_TOP directory appropriate for the type of object. For example forms would be located in $ISE_TOP/forms/US or package source code in $KARI_TOP/admin/sql for example. Database Objects, such as tables, indexes and sequences should be created in the ISE schema, then you need to a) Grant all privilege from each custom data object to the APPS schema. For example : logged in as ISE user grant all privileges on myTable to apps; b) Create a synonym in APPS for each custom data object For example : logged in as APPS user create synonym myTable for ISE.myTable; Please contact AppsHosting with any questions, comments, or suggestions; as we constantly strive for improvement in these areas.
