Updating Profile Options from Backend using API in Oracle APPS/EBS

Updating Profile Options from Backend using API in Oracle APPS/EBS

In This post I am sharing how to update the profiles without opening forms.

USE the API:  FND_PROFILE

The package FND_PROFILE  can be found in file AFPFPROS.pls

 

Note: FND_PROFILE is not public interface.  Use of this API is considered a customization and should be tested in a test environment.

FND_PROFILE.SAVE - sets the value of a profile option permanently to the database,
at any level. This can be used at runtime or during patching.
This routine will not actually commit the changes; We have to run commit separately.
The levels are: 'SITE', 'APPL', 'RESP', or 'USER'.
P_NAME= Profile name should be Short Name

Usage:

FND_PROFILE.SAVE('P_NAME', 'P_VAL', 'SITE');
FND_PROFILE.SAVE('P_NAME', 'P_VAL', 'APPL', 321532);
FND_PROFILE.SAVE('P_NAME', 'P_VAL', 'RESP', 321532, 345234);
FND_PROFILE.SAVE('P_NAME', 'P_VAL', 'USER', 123321);

returns: TRUE if successful, FALSE if failure.


To update a Profile Option value at Site level, you need to run the SQL Script below:

Declare
value Boolean;
Begin
value := fnd_profile.save('APPS_DATABASE_ID','<new_value>','SITE');
End;



===============
Example Code
===============

DECLARE
stat boolean;
BEGIN
dbms_output.disable;
dbms_output.enable(100000);
stat := FND_PROFILE.SAVE('GUEST_USER_PWD', 'GUEST/ORACLE', 'SITE');
IF stat THEN
    dbms_output.put_line( 'Stat = TRUE - profile updated' );
ELSE
    dbms_output.put_line( 'Stat = FALSE - profile NOT updated' );
END IF;
commit;
END;



Description of the FND_PROFILE.SAVE function parameters:

Function SAVE(
X_NAME in varchar2,             /* Profile name you are setting Short Name*/
X_VALUE in varchar2,            /* Profile value you are setting */
X_LEVEL_NAME in varchar2,       /* Level that you're setting at:
                                   'SITE','APPL','RESP','USER', etc. */
X_LEVEL_VALUE in varchar2 default NULL,
                                /* Level value that you are setting at,
                                   e.g. user id for 'USER' level.
                                   X_LEVEL_VALUE is not used at site level. 
Responsibility id in case RESP*/
X_LEVEL_VALUE_APP_ID in varchar2 default NULL,
                                /* Used for 'RESP' and 'SERVRESP' level;
                                   Resp Application_Id. */
X_LEVEL_VALUE2 in varchar2 default NULL
                                /* 2nd Level value that you are setting at.
                                   This is for the 'SERVRESP' hierarchy. */
) return boolean;


Example for update profile as responsibility level

set serveroutput on;
DECLARE
stat boolean;
CURSOR c
  IS
  select frt.responsibility_id,frt.application_id from fnd_responsibility_tl frt,fnd_responsibility fr where frt.responsibility_name like '%XX_CUST%' and frt.language='US'
and fr.responsibility_id=frt.responsibility_id;
--and frt.responsibility_name in ('AP XX_CUST Advance User','AP XX_CUST IT Super User'); --in case you want to do for specific responsibilities

BEGIN
dbms_output.disable;
dbms_output.enable(100000);
for i in c
loop
stat := FND_PROFILE.SAVE('&pofile_name', '&p_value', 'RESP',i.responsibility_id,i.application_id);
IF stat THEN
    dbms_output.put_line( 'Stat = TRUE - profile updated' );
ELSE
    dbms_output.put_line( 'Stat = FALSE - profile NOT updated' );
END IF;
end loop;
commit;

END;

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database Validating the Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) wallet password is crucial, especially when ensuring that the password is correct without using the OPEN or CLOSE commands in the database. This blog post explains a straightforward method to validate the TDE password using the mkstore utility. Steps to Validate TDE Wallet Password Follow these steps to validate the TDE wallet password: Step 1: Copy the Keystore/Wallet File Navigate to your existing TDE wallet directory. Copy only the ewallet.p12 file to a new directory. If a cwallet.sso file exists, do not copy it . The absence of cwallet.sso ensures that the wallet does not use auto-login, forcing the utility to prompt for the password. Step 2: Validate Using mkstore Use the mkstore utility to check the contents of the wallet file. The mkstore utility will prompt you for the TDE wallet password, allowing you to validate its correctness. Command Syntax To display the conten...

Rename a PDB in Oracle Database Multitenant Architecture in TDE and Non TDE Environment

Rename a PDB in Oracle Database Multitenant Architecture I am sharing a step-by-step guide to help you rename a PDB. This approach uses SQL commands. Without TDE or encryption Wallet Initial Check Check the Current Database Name and Open Mode: SQL > SELECT NAME, OPEN_MODE FROM V$DATABASE; NAME OPEN_MODE --------- -------------------- BEECDB READ WRITE List Current PDBs: SQL > SHOW PDBS; CON_ID CON_NAME OPEN MODE RESTRICTED ---------- ------------------------------ ---------- ---------- 2 PDB$SEED READ ONLY NO 3 FUAT READ WRITE NO We need to RENAME FUAT to BEE  Steps to Rename the PDB Step 1: Export ORACLE_SID Set the Oracle SID to the Container Database (CDB): export ORACLE_SID=BEECDB Step 2: Verify Target PDB Name Availability If the target PDB name is different from the current PDB name, ensure no service exists with the target PDB name.
