ADF integration with Oracle EBS

By -
I have seen many developers keep on asking this question , Is it possible to deploy ADF pages in Oracle EBS ? What is the best practice to achieve seamless integration between ADF and Oracle EBS ? Well ,Oracle always recommend OAF for EBS as it contain same technology stack which ensures extensions are fully compatible with the rest of the installed E-Business Suite applications. where as ADF doesn't hold any features of EBS , But if you want to develop custom application which needs to be integrated within Oracle EBS then ADF is the best choice to develop ,its built in framework, drag and drop functionality, Numerous UI features will help in accelerating  the development activities.


Remember  ADF application is supposed to be run on a different mid-tier than EBS. As an option customers/developers can use AOL-Lite infrastructure to develop the ADF application which gives lot of value addition to session management, secure apps datasource etc.

Once the ADF application is deployed on an external mid-tier, the same can be launched from E-Business Suite navigator.

Define the profile option value for FND_EXTERNAL_ADF_URL profile option, to mention the ADF app base URL
 e.g. https://<host>:<port>/<context-root>


Define an E-Business Suite Function (Functional Administrator > Core Services > Function OR System Administrator > Function) as reflected below:

- Function Type : External ADF Application
- Web-HTML Call : GWY.jsp?targetPage=<an adf page
e.g. /faces/ModelerHome.jsp>


 Attach the function to a menu, menu to responsibility, and responsibility to a user.

 Access the responsibility and the ADF application link should be rendered. Upon clicking the link, the browser session should be redirected to the external ADF application.

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

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.
