How to Create Dynamic VO and Dynamic Table in OAF

By -

This tutorial is comprising of Dynamic Table and Dynamic View Object Concepts.

I had a requirement of Displaying Records based on certain condition and that condition has to be dynamic ,So whenever that condition met records needs to be displayed in a table and Table also needs to be dynamic.

In the Following example i will be guiding you with simple queries for which Dynamic VO's will be created.

Below are the queries for which VO will be created.

Query 1 : select invoice_num from ap_invoices_all 

Query 2 : select user_name from fnd_user


We will be picking this query to display records on page on certain condition that's like

If you Select "I" it will use Invoice Table  and if you select "U" it will use FND_USER Table.

After entering the condition of page and submitting the GO button, You will be able to see records.

Below is the interpretation of the page.

Note : You can't write the code Dynamic VO creation and Dynamic Table creation in PROCESS FORM request method . As Oracle will never allow you to Modify Webean in Process Form Method

REST integration built-in OIC to read Large files with size more than 10MB

Processing large files in any integration requires a lot of effort and complex coding. Every integration platform has a limit size to read a file, similarly, the OIC service provides a limit of 10MB to read the file, if the size exceeds, then the below error will be encountered  Error Reason: Translation Error. Translation Error. Error while translating message to native format. Please make sure that the payload for the outbound interaction conforms to the schema and payload size does not exceed threshold. Error occured as File size exceeds maximum threshold size of 10 MB : Application Error Error Summary: ICS runtime execution error  In this article, we will learn how to read the big-size file in OIC.  Note only XML and CSV formats are supported for larger file read operations.  Here we will build an integration with a source FTP connector to read files containing sizes more than 10 MB  &  read them through the "Read File in Chunks" features and create multiple files  at

Basic Concepts of OAF (Oracle Applications FrameWork )

By -
Image
OAF stands for Oracle Applications Framework. This particular technology will be used to  develop Application pages , all pages will be of Web base. In Previous versions of Oracle Ebiz , Oracle Forms has been widely used to develop transactions forms , but due to its heavy nature & Time consuming Performance ,it becomes very  difficult to carry out Business operations. To improve the Performance , Oracle has introduced OAF. Oracle Application Framework (OAF) is an architecture for creating web based pages with in Oracle EBS platform.  OAF functionality can be achieved using JDEVELOPER Tool. OAF follows MVC architecute. MVC stands for Module View Controller Architecture  Schematic representation of MVC Architecture  Model (bc4j Component) Model contains the BC4J Components or objects which handles data directly from Database. It Includes Business Components for Java (BC4J Objects) which mainly are: • Entity Object • View Object • Application Module
