Solution ATG: Create a Request Group

View the Registry of Executable Files

In this section, we will register a new concurrent program using an existing executable (which

references an actual file which is stored on the database server), and then include that program inthe request group, which will be attached to our System Administrator Assistant responsibility.

For more information on directory structures, refer to the Appendix of the course materials. Each

application has its own subdirectory under APPL_TOP, whose location is identified by the valueof the environment variable.

Responsibility = System Administrator

1. Navigate to the Executable window

(N) Concurrent -> Program -> Executable.

2. Press F11 to enter query mode.

3. Type FNDSCURS in the execution file name field.

4. Press CTRL-F11 to execute the query.

5. Determine the EXECUTABLE_ID of the executable.

(M) Help > Diagnostics > Examine.

6. Write down the EXECUTABLE_ID. ___________

Table Name: FND_EXECUTABLES

Create a Custom Program

You are going to create a concurrent program which runs the Active Users report, using the

executable you just viewed, but with a different program name. An executable may be registeredmore than once under different concurrent program names if the executable has different

parameters. Use your custom application name, which will protect the program on upgrade.


7. Navigate to the Concurrent Program Define window.

(N) Concurrent -> Program -> Define.

8. Enter the following information:

Program: XX Active Users Report

Short Name XXACTIVEUSERS

Application System Administration

Description: XX Active Users report

Executable Name: FNDSCURS

Method: Oracle Reports

Use in SRS: Checked (To make available via SRS window.)

Save: Checked

Print: Checked Columns: 132

Rows: 45

Style: Landscape

9. (I) Save.

10. Identify the name of the table into which you are inserting a record. _________________

(M) Help > Record History.

11. Determine the value of the EXECUTABLE_ID referenced by the concurrent program youhave created. ________________________


12. Where have you seen this value before? ________________________

13. Determine the value of CONCURRENT_PROGRAM_ID and write the value down._______________________


Create a Request Group

A Request Group is a group of reports and processes. A Request Group is a security feature and isused to control which reports and processes are available to application users with a specific

responsibility. Request Sets are a way of running a set of requests at the same time or in a specific

sequence.


14. Navigate to the Request Group window.

(N) Security -> Responsibility -> Request.

15. In the Request Group screen, enter the following:

Request Group Name: XX Sys Admin Asst Requests

Application: System Administration

Code: Leave blank

Description: Sys Admin Assistant Request Group

16. Under Requests enter:

Type: Program

Name: XX Active Users Report

17. SAVE.

18. Write down the table name. _______________________

19. Write down the REQUEST_GROUP_ID. ______________________

20. Whats the value of REQUEST_UNIT_TYPE? _________________________

It should be a P indicating that you have referenced a specific program, as opposed to all of

the programs belonging to a specific application.

21. Whats the value of REQUEST_UNIT_ID? ____________________

22. Where have you seen this value before? ___________________

(Hint: Under a different name: CONCURRENT_PROGRAM_ID).
