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;
