Mehra,

Basically we have two type of process to push the values in to apps tables.

1.Conversion
2.Interface

Conversion is a process of pushing the values into apps tables. This is one time use. (ex when we are upgrading our EBS version we will use conversion)

Interface is also a process of pushing the values into apps tables. But this is periodic use. We will schedule this weekly or monthly...etc(ex in mfg company every weekend they will run the interface to load the PO details)

Interface Steps

1. we will be getting flat file
2. we will create sql loader script (.ctl) file to transfer these flat file data to staging table.(Temp Table)
3a. we will create a package to fetch data's from staging table and it will push into interface table. Then we have to run the related concurrent prog to push those values into apps tables.
3b. Or we can create a package to fetch values from staging table and inside the package we can call related API to insert into apps tables.

For ex.. Recently i did for Price List
i used QP_PRICE_LIST_PUB.Process_Price_List (API) inside the package to push the values into apps tables.

Members,

if anything wrong please give me your suggestions...

regards,
Prabhu

Nice explanation prabhu,

Also, want to mention one more point to shaila.

When the data is pushed from staging table to interface table which is done through a procedure or package written, we do some validations in that procedure so that the right data enters in to the interface tables. The flat file data may not be correct and so we does validations in the pl/sql package to make sure that wrong data is left in the staging table itself and only the right data is entered in to the interface tables.

If there is a small percentage of wrong data, then we will change them manually, otherwise we will give them back the flat file and ask them to send it again with the right data.

A concurrent program is run to push the data from interface tables to base tables. This program is an inbuily pl/sql package which also does some validations so that the to ensure the right data is entered in to the base tables.

There may be many scenarios which the concurrent program may not handle and so thats why we do the validations while pushing data from staging table to interface table.

I can provide you with an example if u guys need them.

Thanks

Hai Aman,

Would you give the valuable interface information..

I have a doubt, there are some standard packages andprocedures to upload the data from staging table to interface tables in different modules.

What are those standard procedures regularly using for..?

Your information will help me a lot..

Thanks in advance..

Regards,
Sruthi

Hi Sruthi,

These standard packages are provided by oracle. Instead of writing the whole interface code by ourselves, we will utilize those standard API's and write the interface. In our interface, we will code whatever the validations we want to do and to populate the data from stagin to interface tables, normally we use insert statement to push in to interface tables, instead here we call that API and some paramater values and it automatically calls that API and pushes the data in to interface tables.

As told by srikanth hans, you can refer those documents which gives the complete picture of all API's.

I can give you the link where you can find those files.

Thanks
AMan
