Do Not Use Database Tools to Modify Oracle Applicatios Data Oracle STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that you ever use SQL*Plus, Oracle Data Browser, database triggers, or ay other tool to modify Oracle Applicatios data uless otherwise istructed. Oracle provides powerful tools you ca use to create, store, chage, retrieve, ad maitai iformatio i a Oracle database. But if you use Oracle tools such as SQL*Plus to modify Oracle Applicatios data, you risk destroyig the itegrity of your data ad you lose the ability to audit chages to your data. Because Oracle Applicatios tables are iterrelated, ay chage you make usig Oracle Applicatios ca update may tables at oce. But whe you modify Oracle Applicatios data usig aythig other tha Oracle Applicatios, you may chage a row i oe table without makig correspodig chages i related tables. If your tables get out of sychroizatio with each other, you risk retrievig erroeous iformatio ad you risk upredictable results throughout Oracle Applicatios. Whe you use Oracle Applicatios to modify your data, Oracle Applicatios automatically checks that your chages are valid. Oracle Applicatios also keeps track of who chages iformatio. If you eter iformatio ito database tables usig database tools, you may store ivalid iformatio. You also lose the ability to xx

21 track who has chaged your iformatio because SQL*Plus ad other database tools do ot keep a record of chages.

To make use of these APIs, you must code your wrapper fuctio that passes the appropriate parameters to the APIs. Your program will also be resposible for coectig to a database before callig a API fuctio, ad discoectig from the database upo retur. You may also choose to write log files before callig ad after returig from a fuctio. If there is a problem durig executio of a call, the APIs retur oe of the followig status codes: S for success E for error Basic Busiess Needs U ukow/uexpected status. These APIs allow users to have a Applicatio Programmig Iterface (API) available for the maiteace of cost iformatio for a Item ad Resource. The purpose of these APIs is to provide a mechaism, i additio to a etry scree, through which users ca maipulate cost iformatio i the Oracle Process Maufacturig (OPM) applicatio. The usage of this API will be multifold: Help ew customers load bulk of item cost, resource cost, burde iformatio, ad allocatio basis iformatio ito OPM from exteral systems bypassig laborious ad error proe maual data etry.

31 2 Cost Maagemet API Usage The Cost Maagemet APIs are curretly writte i PL/SQL. To make use of these API s, you must code your iterface or wrapper. Your program will also be resposible for coectig to a database before callig a API fuctio. You may also choose to write log files before callig ad after returig from a API fuctio. Each fuctio will retur a error code i the parameter x_retur_status which idicates whether the API was successful or failed. The values are as follows: S - Successful E - Expected error U - Uexpected error Callig the API Iterface Code The followig are sippets from a sample wrapper (referred to as wrapper from here o) ad are used to test the API code. Wrappers are writte i PL/SQL Package. Wrappers ca be writte for each API ad call the APIs directly from these wrappers. The source of data for the wrapper comes from a ASCII flat file. You will probably wat to write a similar type of wrapper to call the API code. These wrappers have followig parameters : p_dir IN VARCHAR2 - Workig directory for iput ad output files. p_iput_file IN VARCHAR2 - Name of iput file i.e., ASCII flat file with data p_output_file IN VARCHAR2 - Name of output file p_delimiter IN VARCHAR2 - Delimiter character The ASCII flat file must be character delimited (typically, but ot ecessarily, with a comma). Cost Maagemet API Usage 2-1

32 Callig the API Code - Example Callig the API Code - Example This sectio details how to call the API code withi the wrapper. The purpose of this is to explai how to call a stadard OPM Cost Maagemet APIs. Here Item Cost API is take as a example. The wrapper package cosists of a PL/SQL fuctio amed Create_Item_Cost which returs VARCHAR2 idicatig retur status. It is ot critical how the data values get ito your customized iterface. What is dictated is the order i which those same data values get passed ito the stadard API calls. Typically, wrappers goes through followig steps for each item: 1. Load the data from the flat file ito PL/SQL table or record. 2. Call the Item Cost API for each item. 3. Check the retur status. 4. Retrieve the messages from the message stack ad write them ito a log file. Wrapper logic 1. Lies 66-69, declares PL/SQL variables to hold the data comig from flat file. These variables gets passed to the public API, so that data type should correspod with the data types specified i the API specificatio. 2. Lies , get the first lie from the flat file ad extract the first value. I our case it is a type of the record. Followig are the possible values: 10 : Item Cost Header record 20 : This Level record for the Item 30 : Lower Level record for the Item. 3. Lies , populate the item details ito PL/SQL tables based o the type of record. 4. Lies , error hadlig. If error is raised while populatig header record the skip all the detail records. If i case of detail record the skip oly that detail record ad cotiue populatig other detail records. 5. Lies , get the ext lie from the file ad check type of record. Followig scearios may occur : If the record type is of detail, the cotiue populatig the record. 2-2 Product Title/BookTitle as a Variable

33 Callig the API Code - Example If the record type is header record the call the public API for the previous Item Cost Detail already read. If the fetch fails (i.e., ed of file is reached - No_Data_Foud error), the call the public API for the previous Item Cost Detail already read. 6. Lies , read all the messages from the message stack ad write it ito a log file. 7. Lies , check the out parameter l_costcmpt_ids PL/SQL table, if ay records are iserted the get the iformatio for what detail records have bee iserted. 8. Lies , check whether to cotiue the loop or ot. If yes, the start over agai from step 2. Cost Maagemet API Usage 2-3

34 API Hits API Hits For performace improvemet, NOCOPY hits have bee added to the OUT parameters of the APIs. Whe a API has the same type of parameter defied as IN ad OUT, you must pass i differet variables. I additio, you must check the retur status of the API (geerally retured through x_retur_status parameter) before lookig at other OUT variables retured by the API. If the retur status is ot Success, the you must ot use ay of the OUT parameters passed back from the API. For example, the Get_Resource_Cost API cotais p_resource_cost_rec ad x_ resource_cost_rec: PROCEDURE Get_Resource_Cost ( p_api_versio IN NUMBER, p_iit_msg_list IN VARCHAR2 := FND_API.G_FALSE, x_retur_status OUT NOCOPY VARCHAR2, x_msg_cout OUT NOCOPY NUMBER, x_msg_data OUT NOCOPY VARCHAR2, p_resource_cost_rec IN Resource_Cost_Rec_Type, x_resource_cost_rec OUT NOCOPY Resource_Cost_Rec_Type ); Therefore, the call ca be set up to read: GMF_RESOURCECOST_PUB.get_resource_cost( (p_api_versio => l_api_versio, p_iit_msg_list => l_iit_msg_list, x_retur_status => l_retur_status, x_msg_cout => l_msg_cout, x_msg_data => l_msg_data, p_resource_cost_rec => l_resource_cost_rec, x_resource_cost_rec => l_resource_cost_rec ); I this example, p_resource_cost_rec ad x_resource_cost_rec both have the variable l_resource_cost_rec. This gives a icorrect result because both the parameters caot have the same variable. You must set the call up so p_resource_cost_rec ad x_resource_cost_rec have differet variables: GMF_RESOURCECOST_PUB.get_resource_cost( (p_api_versio => l_api_versio, p_iit_msg_list => l_iit_msg_list, x_retur_status => l_retur_status, x_msg_cout => l_msg_cout, x_msg_data => l_msg_data, 2-4 Product Title/BookTitle as a Variable
