Apps To Fusion

We have in the past articles seen various examples of FNDLOAD, for both AOL objects and web ADI. In this article, you will see how to move AME Definitions from one instance to another. The confusing thing about AME FNDLOAD is that these scripts are available in two locations, which are
$AME_TOP/patch/115/import
$PER_TOP/patch/115/import
It is recommended to use the LCT files in $AME_TOP where possible.

In this article, you will learn to download and upload the following AME Components
1. AME Conditions
2. AME Groups
3. AME action type usages
4. AME Rules

Where are the LCT Configuration files for AME
These are in $AME_TOP/patch/115/import
$ ls –lx
amesaagc.lct  amesaatc.lct  amesactu.lct  amesacus.lct 
amesappg.lct  amesappo.lct   amesapty.lct  amescond.lct
amesconk.lct  amescvar.lct  amesicls.lct  amesiclu.lct 
amesmatr.lct  amesmatt.lct  amespdan.lct  amesrule.lct
amesrulk.lct  US

 

I want to download AME Conditions. How can I do that.
For downloading and uploading custom AME Conditions, you need to use LCT file amesconk.lct. Please note that Oracle also delivers another LCT file named amescond.lct. However amescond.lct works only for the standard/seeded AME conditions. In order to download custom AME Conditions, you must use amesconk.lct

 

What is the information required to download AME Conditions.
In order to download any object that is associated with a given AME Transaction type, you will need the Application Short Name and the AME Transaction Type short name. Both of these can be found from AME Configuration screens. However for downloading AME Conditions, you need to know something known as AME Condition Key. All these details can be found by running the SQL Statement as shown below
select FA.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME,
       ACA.TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID,
       ACON.CONDITION_KEY,
       ACON.CONDITION_ID,
       ACON.CONDITION_TYPE,
       AATT.NAME,
       nvl(ACON.PARAMETER_ONE, null),
       nvl(ACON.PARAMETER_TWO, null),
       nvl(ACON.PARAMETER_THREE, null),
       nvl(ACON.INCLUDE_UPPER_LIMIT, null),
       nvl(ACON.INCLUDE_LOWER_LIMIT, null),
       to_char(ACON.LAST_UPDATE_DATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'),
       substrb(FND_LOAD_UTIL.OWNER_NAME(ACON.LAST_UPDATED_BY), 1, 100) OWNER
  from AME_ATTRIBUTE_USAGES AAU,
       AME_ATTRIBUTES       AATT,
       AME_CALLING_APPS     ACA,
       AME_CONDITIONS       ACON,
       AME_STRING_VALUES    ASV,
       FND_APPLICATION_VL   FA
where /*:APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME is not null
   and :TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID is not null
   and FA.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME like :APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME
   and */ACON.CONDITION_ID = ASV.CONDITION_ID(+)
   and FA.APPLICATION_ID = ACA.FND_APPLICATION_ID
/*   and ((:TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID = 'NULL' and ACA.TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID is null) or
       ACA.TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID like :TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID)*/  
and ACON.ATTRIBUTE_ID = AATT.ATTRIBUTE_ID
   and AAU.APPLICATION_ID = ACA.APPLICATION_ID
   and AAU.ATTRIBUTE_ID = AATT.ATTRIBUTE_ID
/*   and (:ATTRIBUTE_NAME is null or
       (:ATTRIBUTE_NAME is not null and AATT.NAME like :ATTRIBUTE_NAME))
*//*   and (:CONDITION_KEY is null or (:CONDITION_KEY is not null and
       ACON.CONDITION_KEY like :CONDITION_KEY))
  */ and ACON.CONDITION_TYPE in ('pre', 'auth')
   and AATT.NAME not in
       ('ALLOW_DELETING_RULE_GENERATED_APPROVERS',
        'ALLOW_REQUESTOR_APPROVAL', 'AT_LEAST_ONE_RULE_MUST_APPLY',
        'EFFECTIVE_RULE_DATE', 'EVALUATE_PRIORITIES_PER_ITEM',
        'USE_RESTRICTIVE_ITEM_EVALUATION')
   and sysdate between AAU.START_DATE and
       nvl(AAU.END_DATE - (1 / 86400), sysdate)
   and sysdate between AATT.START_DATE and
       nvl(AATT.END_DATE - (1 / 86400), sysdate)
   and sysdate between ACA.START_DATE and
       nvl(ACA.END_DATE - (1 / 86400), sysdate)
   and sysdate between ACON.START_DATE and
       nvl(ACON.END_DATE - (1 / 86400), sysdate)
order by ACON.creation_date desc

--Note this SQL will return the most recently created AME Conditions on top
--Therefore you can find the condition key

 

How can I download the AME Condition?
After knowing the Application Short Name, Transaction Type Short Name, and Condition Key, you can then run the FNDLOAD command for downloading the AME Condition as shown below, one single line

FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y DOWNLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesconk.lct XX_FOCUSTHREAD_HR_AME_COND.ldt AME_CONDITIONS APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME='PER' TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID='SSHRMS' CONDITION_KEY='143353006:10371'

Of course the values for PER, SSHMS and ‘143353006:10371’ are derived from the SQL statement shown as above.

 

How can I upload the AME Condition?
In order to upload this AME Condition, run the command as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y UPLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesconk.lct XX_FOCUSTHREAD_HR_AME_COND.ldt

 

How can I download and upload AME Approval Groups?
For migrating AME Approval Groups, you will use LCT Configuration file named amesappg.lct. In order to use this LCT file in FNDLOAD command, you must find out the name of the approval group. Use the SQL as shown below to find the AME Approval Group Name

select apg.name,
       nvl(apgtl.user_approval_group_name, apg.name),
       nvl(apgtl.description, apg.description),
       replace(apg.query_string, fnd_global.local_chr(13), null),
       apg.is_static,
       to_char(apg.last_update_date, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'),
       substrb(FND_LOAD_UTIL.OWNER_NAME(apg.LAST_UPDATED_BY), 1, 100) OWNER
  from ame_approval_groups apg,
       (select approval_group_id, user_approval_group_name, description
          from ame_approval_groups_tl
         where language = userenv('LANG')) apgtl
where sysdate between apg.start_date and
       nvl(apg.end_date - (1 / 86400), sysdate)
   and apg.is_static = 'N'
   and apg.approval_group_id = apgtl.approval_group_id(+)
/*   and (:APPROVAL_GROUP_NAME is null or (:APPROVAL_GROUP_NAME is not null and
       apg.name like :APPROVAL_GROUP_NAME))*/
ORDER BY apg.CREATION_DATE DESC

 

 

To download the Approval group, use the command that is similar to as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y DOWNLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesappg.lct XX_FOCUSTHREAD_HR_APP_GRP.ldt AME_APPROVAL_GROUPS APPROVAL_GROUP_NAME='XX_FT_3RD_LEVEL_APPROVER'

 

In order to upload the Approval Group in new environment, use the command as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y UPLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesappg.lct XX_FOCUSTHREAD_HR_APP_GRP.ldt

 

To download the AME Rule, use amesrulk.lct
In order to build the download command for AME Rules, you will require the following information
      APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME
      TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID
      RULE_KEY
All these can be derived by running the SQL Statement as shown below
--ame rules sql
select ARUL.RULE_KEY,
       ARUL.RULE_ID,
       AAT.NAME,
       AA.PARAMETER,
       to_char(ARUL.RULE_TYPE),

       to_char(ARUL.LAST_UPDATE_DATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'),

order by ARU.last_update_date desc

 

Once you know the RULE_KEY, then AME Rule can be downloaded by running the FNDLOAD command as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y DOWNLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesrulk.lct XXTHR_FOCUSTHREADAME_RULE.ldt AME_RULES APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME='PER' TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID='SSHRMS' RULE_KEY='143353006:10184'

 

In order to upload the AME Rule in another instance, use the SQL as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y UPLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesrulk.lct XXTHR_FOCUSTHREADAME_RULE.ldt

 

To download AME Action Type Usages, you will use amesacus.lct
The list of parameters for downloading the AME Action Type Usages is the same as those for AME Rules.
For example, the FNDLOAD command for downloading the Action Type Usages in AME will be
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y DOWNLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesacus.lct XXTHR_FOCUSTHREAD_AUSG.ldt AME_ACTION_USAGES APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME='PER' TRANSACTION_TYPE_ID='SSHRMS' RULE_KEY='143353006:10184'

Likewise, to upload the AME Action Type usage in another eBusiness Suite instance, use a command similar to as shown below
FNDLOAD apps/appsPassword 0 Y UPLOAD $AME_TOP/patch/115/import/amesacus.lct XXTHR_FOCUSTHREAD_AUSG.ldt

 

In order to find the parameters for AME Action Type Usages, use SQL below
