Custom Account Generation Process

Hi, I am going to explain you about the customization of Account Generation Processes/Account generator workflows in various modules in Oracle Applications. For all modules the basic profile option to run account generator workflow is "Account Generator:Run in Debug Mode". So Set the profile "Account Generator:Run in Debug Mode" to "Yes" Account Payables:  Workflow Name: Project Supplier Invoice Account Generation Process  Internal Name:      PAAPINVW    If the new invoice is created in the AP module (Oracle Payables  à  Invoice  à  Entry  à  Invoices) with the Project details. OR Invoice has interfaced from the other module like i-expense with Project details, we should definitely customize the ‘Project Supplier Invoice Account Generation Process ( PAAPINVW.wft )’ workflow to create account in distributions. What will happen if the workflow is not customized?     ...

B.2.79 How to Configure GL Account Hierarchies using FSG definitions for E-Business Suite

You must configure GL account hierarchies if you are deploying Oracle Financial Analytics, Oracle Procurement and Spend Analytics, and Oracle Supply Chain and Order Management Analytics. For information on how to configure Hierarchies using GL Accounting flexfields value sets definitions, see  Section B.2.20, "How to Configure GL Account and GL Segments for Oracle E-Business Suite" . If you need to define GL account hierarchies based on multiple segments within a chart of accounts, then you can use the Oracle FSG report definition in E-Business Suite to define them. You should first use the Oracle FSG form to define a row set or a column set, then Oracle BI Applications will extract the row set or column set definition and convert them into hierarchies. Oracle FSG hierarchies are extracted from following E-Business Suite source tables: RG_REPORT_AXIS_CONTENTS This table defines the relationship between the FSG report axis and GL code combinations.

Calculated Percentage Column always showing result as 0% Zero Percentage in OBIEE 11g

You may also face similar issue while upgrading OBIEE to a newer version or if you upgrade some of your dashboards from OBIEE 10.1.3.4 to 11.1.1.5. The issue is that, some of the calculations under certain columns in the reports were showing zeros instead of the calculated values.  The requirement was to calculate a match rate % for some data based on another field that showed 'MATCH' or 'NO MATCH'.   The real-time scenario was (SUM(CASE Table1.Column1 WHEN 'MATCH' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)/COUNT(Table1.Column1))*100 However, this was returning 0% as the result. With the help of some blogs and questions raised on OBIEE threads I came to know that this happens when you have an integer in a calculation. The solution which I used is very simple and was successful in achieving the requirement. The very easy fix to this issue is to multiply the calculation by 1.0.  The updated calculation which works is shown below and provides a meaningful result. ( don't use 1, as th...
