Custom Applications are required if you are creating new forms, reports, etc.
This allows you to segregate your custom written files from the standard seeded functionality that Oracle Applications provide.
Customizations can therefore be preserved when applying patches or upgrades to your environment.
1) Make the directory structure for your custom application files.
cd $APPL_TOP
mkdir fz
mkdir fz/11.5.0
mkdir fz/11.5.0/admin
mkdir fz/11.5.0/admin/sql
mkdir fz/11.5.0/admin/odf
mkdir fz/11.5.0/sql
mkdir fz/11.5.0/bin
mkdir fz/11.5.0/reports
mkdir fz/11.5.0/reports/US
mkdir fz/11.5.0/forms
mkdir fz/11.5.0/forms/US
mkdir fz/11.5.0/$APPLLIB
mkdir fz/11.5.0/$APPLOUT
mkdir fz/11.5.0/$APPLLOG
2) Add the custom module into the environment
Apply ADX.E.1 and add the entry to topfile.txt as a standard product top entry.
Customised environment variables can be added to Auto Configure by using the filename specificed by s_custom_file, Which is then called from the APPSORA.env file.
If using Forms Listener Servlet, you may also need to add $CUSTOM_TOP to formsservlet.ini in $APACHE_TOP/Jserv/etc
3) Create new tablespace for database objects
Create table space FZ data file '/u01/oracle/vis data/fz.dbf' size 10M default storage (initial 10k next 10k)
4) Create schema
Create user fz identified by fz
default tablespace fz
temporary tablespace temp
quota unlimited on fz
quota unlimited on temp;
grant connect, resource to fz;
5) Register your Oracle Schema.
Login to Applications with System Administrator responsibility
Navigate to Application-->Register
Application = FZ Custom
Short Name = FZ
Basepath = FZ_TOP
Description = FZ Custom Application
6) Register Oracle User
Naviate to Security-->Oracle-->Register
Database User Name = FZ
Password = FZ
Privilege = Enabled
Install Group = 0
Description = FZ Custom Application User
7) Add Application to a Data Group
Navigate to Security-->Oracle-->DataGroup
Data Group = FZGroup
Description = FZ Custom Data Group
Click on "Copy Applications from" and pick Standard data Group, then add the following entry.
Application = FZ Custom
Oracle ID = APPS
Description = FZ 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
Navigate to Security-->responsbility-->Request
Group = FZ Request Group
Application = FZ Custom
Code = FZ
Description = FZ 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.
We will create two menus, one for Core Applications and one for Self Service.
Navigate to Application-->Menu
Menu = FZ_CUSTOM_MENU
User Menu Name = FZ Custom Application
Menu Type = <leave blank>
Description = FZ 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 = FZ_CUSTOM_MENU_SSWA
User Menu Name = FZ Custom Application SSWA
Menu Type = <leave blank>
Description = FZ 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 = FZ Custom
Application = FZ Custom
Responsibility Key = FZCUSTOM
Description = FZ Custom Responsibility
Available From = Oracle Applications
Data Group Name = fzGroup
Data Group Application = FZ Custom
Menu = FZ Custom Application
Request Group Name = FZ Request Group
Responsibility Name = FZ Custom SSWA
Application = FZ Custom
Responsibility Key = FZCUSTOMSSWA
Description = FZ Custom Responsibility SSWA
Available From = Oracle Self Service Web Applications
Data Group Name = fzGroup
Data Group Application = FZ Custom
Menu = FZ Custom Application SSWA
Request Group Name = FZ Request Group
11) Add responsibility to user
Navigate to Security-->User-->Define
Add FZ 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 FZ_TOP directory appropriate for the type of object.
For example forms would be located in $FZ_TOP/forms/US or package source code in $FZ_TOP/admin/sql
for example. Database Objects, such as tables, indexes and sequences should be created in the FZ schema, then you need to
For example forms would be located in $FZ_TOP/forms/US or package source code in $FZ_TOP/admin/sql
for example. Database Objects, such as tables, indexes and sequences should be created in the FZ schema, then you need to
a) Grant all privilege from each custom data object to the APPS schema.
For example: logged in as FZ user
Grant all privileges on my Table to apps;
b) Create a synonym in APPS for each custom data object
For example: logged in as APPS user
Create synonym my Table for fz.myTable;
Other database objects, such as views and packages should be created directly in the APPS schema.
