WHAT’S NEW<br />

The additions and improvements to <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1 <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite are as follows:<br />

<strong>Support</strong> <strong>for</strong> standard views, XOP views, upgrades reintroduced.<br />

<strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0, in which global views were introduced <strong>for</strong> several <strong>Oracle</strong> modules, had certain<br />

limitations. The version supported only the global <strong>for</strong>m of the views, and upgrades to version 6.0<br />

were not possible. <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 12.0.4 and 12.0.5 and <strong>Oracle</strong> Database 9.2 were not<br />

supported.<br />

Now, in <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1, all of these previously listed limitations have been removed.<br />

Incremental refresh capability <strong>for</strong> key flexfield data cache tables introduced.<br />

In <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0, as part of the support of key flexfields in global views, data cache tables were<br />

used to store the segment values and descriptions <strong>for</strong> the structures of key flexfields other than<br />

the Personal Analysis key flexfield. Concurrent Manager jobs were provided <strong>for</strong> fully refreshing<br />

the data in these tables. However, during the full refresh, the global reports that include data from<br />

key flexfields are unavailable.<br />

Now, in <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1, these data cache tables can also be refreshed incrementally, and<br />

Concurrent Manager jobs have been provided <strong>for</strong> this purpose. This capability will be useful when<br />

the global reports that include data from key flexfields must always be available, and when the<br />

data cache tables need to be frequently refreshed.<br />

Global views, row-level security available <strong>for</strong> users of Cognos BI.<br />

In <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1, with the use of <strong>Noetix</strong> Generator 3.0 <strong>for</strong> Cognos BI, the global views can be<br />

generated according to an intuitive presentation model into the meta-layer <strong>for</strong> Cognos BI. This<br />

presentation model is in addition to those that were developed during the last release <strong>for</strong> <strong>Noetix</strong><br />

WebQuery (NWQ), <strong>Oracle</strong> Discoverer, and <strong>Oracle</strong> Business Intelligence (<strong>Oracle</strong> BI).<br />

The BI Tool User Registration tab of the Security Manager dialog box can be used <strong>for</strong><br />

registering users of Cognos BI as <strong>Noetix</strong> query users of the <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite<br />

Authenticated User (Type A) type; consequently, the data access privileges of the <strong>Noetix</strong> query<br />

user will be en<strong>for</strong>ced on reports run by the Cognos BI users. The <strong>Noetix</strong> Responsibility Tool can<br />

be used by Cognos BI users to set the responsibility they want in effect when they run reports<br />

against the global views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Advanced Benefits, <strong>Oracle</strong> General Ledger, <strong>Oracle</strong> Human<br />

Resources, <strong>Oracle</strong> Payroll, and <strong>Oracle</strong> Time and Labor. The tool can also be used <strong>for</strong> registering<br />

Cognos BI users as Type A users.<br />

For in<strong>for</strong>mation, see the documentation <strong>for</strong> <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong>.<br />

KNOWN ISSUES<br />

For the latest in<strong>for</strong>mation on known issues <strong>for</strong> this release, see the <strong>Noetix</strong> online<br />

knowledge base.<br />

The known issues in <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1 <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite are as follows:<br />

Columns in PO% views return null value <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 12.1.3.<br />

On account of the changes introduced <strong>for</strong> Purchasing in <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 12.1.3, the<br />

Tax_Name column in the following views returns the null value:<br />

• PO_All_Shipments<br />

• PO_PO_Shipment_Changes<br />

• PO_PO_Shipments<br />

• PO_Quotation_Details<br />

• PO_Rfq_Details<br />

• PO_Undelivered_Items<br />

Additionally, the Shipment_Tax_Name column in the PO_Requisition_Line_Pos view will also<br />

return the null value.<br />

This issue will be fixed in a future release.<br />

[25527]<br />

MSC% views return incorrect data <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 12.1.3.<br />

When <strong>Oracle</strong> Rapid Planning is used in <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 12.1.3, <strong>Oracle</strong> Advanced Supply<br />

Chain Planning views return incorrect data.<br />

This issue will be fixed in a future release.<br />

[25532]<br />

PA_Labor_Expenditures, PA_Org_Labor_Expenditures do not return some records.<br />

The views do not return some records when the dates of the labor expenditures incurred by an<br />

employee do not fall within the period <strong>for</strong> an active assignment of the employee.<br />

[17774]<br />

Per<strong>for</strong>mance of <strong>Noetix</strong> views affected on <strong>Oracle</strong> Database 10g.<br />

After <strong>Oracle</strong> Database is upgraded to version 10g, the per<strong>for</strong>mance of <strong>Noetix</strong> views and queries<br />

that are built on these views may deteriorate, especially when the number of records to be<br />

returned is huge and the views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Receivables are used. The degradation of per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

is because of changes that have been made to the cost-based optimizer, which in turn increase<br />

the number of full table scans that are per<strong>for</strong>med. For a workaround, the working of the costbased<br />

optimizer can be modified at the session or query level. For more in<strong>for</strong>mation about the<br />

workaround, see Answer ID 1748 on the <strong>Noetix</strong> online knowledge base.<br />

[17908]<br />

BOM_Current_Structured_Bills, BOM_Current_Summary have per<strong>for</strong>mance issues.<br />

The views have per<strong>for</strong>mance-related issues and take a long time to return records. For more<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation, contact <strong>Noetix</strong> <strong>Technical</strong> <strong>Support</strong>.<br />

[18791]<br />

Columns in Payroll views do not return data after payroll run process.<br />

On account of a change introduced by <strong>Oracle</strong> HRMS Family Pack I, the Date_Earned,<br />

Payroll_Period, Period_End_Date, and Period_Start_Date columns in the following views will not<br />

return in<strong>for</strong>mation after the payroll run process:<br />

• PAY_Check_Register<br />

• PAY_Gross_To_Net_Summary (This view does not contain the Payroll_Period column.)<br />

• PAY_Payment_Register<br />

• PAY_Third_Party_Register<br />

• PAY_Void_Payments<br />

This problem occurs because the DATE_EARNED column in the PAY_PAYROLL_ACTIONS<br />

table of <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite is not being populated. For in<strong>for</strong>mation about the fix or<br />

workaround to this known issue, see Bug 5722491 on <strong>Oracle</strong> MetaLink.<br />

[19223]<br />

EAM_Asset_Hierarchies returns duplicate records.<br />

The EAM_Asset_Hierarchies view returns duplicate records.<br />

[21049]<br />

Views <strong>for</strong> Assets return multiple records.<br />

When the Merge Mass Additions and Split Mass Additions processes are per<strong>for</strong>med on invoice<br />

distribution lines to create combined and multiple assets and adjust costs in the existing assets,<br />

the FA_Asset_Invoices, FA_GL_Invoice_Trans_Je, and FA_Invoice_Trx_SLA_GL_Je views<br />

return multiple records.<br />

[21320]<br />

Error in generating .hlp file on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista.<br />

While generating the <strong>Noetix</strong> Help File in Microsoft WinHelp <strong>for</strong>mat on a computer running<br />

Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Vista, an error message similar to the following is<br />

displayed: “HC4008: Warning: Cannot file or load FTSRCH.DLL. Hall compression turned off.”<br />

For a workaround to this issue, see Microsoft <strong>Support</strong> article 917607.<br />

[16542]<br />

Standard views <strong>for</strong> Inventory do not return data <strong>for</strong> inactive organizations.<br />

When inactive organizations are present in the <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite setup, the number of<br />

records returned by the standard <strong>for</strong>m of the <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory views may not match with that of<br />

the records returned by the global and Cross Operations Extension (XOP) <strong>for</strong>ms of the views This<br />

happens because the standard <strong>for</strong>m of the Inventory views does not return data <strong>for</strong> inactive<br />

organizations.<br />

[22214]<br />

XOP views do not return all data <strong>for</strong> POs handled by multiple organizations.<br />

<strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite 11.5.10 introduced a feature that permits a purchase order (PO) to be<br />

handled in multiple organizations. In other words, an organization can enter a requisition <strong>for</strong> the<br />

PO, but it may be received by a different organization. Standard views support this feature.<br />

However, XOP views presently do not support this feature and will do so in the future.<br />

[13828]<br />

PAY_Accruals does not support DML statements in <strong>for</strong>mulas.<br />

To show correct results <strong>for</strong> accrual plans, the PAY_Accruals view uses <strong>Oracle</strong> Payroll <strong>for</strong>mulas<br />

that have been defined <strong>for</strong> each benefit accrual plan. Users can customize these <strong>for</strong>mulas<br />

according to business needs. However, if customization involves the use of Data Manipulation<br />

Language (DML) statements (such as inserts, updates, or deletes), the view will malfunction. The<br />

PAY_Accruals view is designed to use only <strong>for</strong>mulas without DML statements.<br />

For a solution, consider not altering the <strong>for</strong>mulas and instead relocating DML statements<br />

elsewhere. Otherwise, contact <strong>Noetix</strong> <strong>Technical</strong> <strong>Support</strong> to request a quote <strong>for</strong> a billable<br />

customization that alters the <strong>Noetix</strong> Payroll Data Mart and the PAY_Accruals view <strong>for</strong> support of<br />

customized <strong>for</strong>mulas.<br />

[13879]<br />

XOP <strong>for</strong>m of RA_Customers returns multiple records.<br />

The XOP <strong>for</strong>m of the RA_Customers view returns a record <strong>for</strong> each active, primary bill-to address<br />

defined <strong>for</strong> a customer in an operating unit. This known issue also occurs if the XOP <strong>for</strong>m of this<br />

view is joined to the XOP <strong>for</strong>m of other views. For a workaround to this problem in XOP views,<br />

use the Operating_Unit_Name column as a <strong>for</strong>eign key in the query that joins the XOP <strong>for</strong>m of<br />

the views.<br />

[19627]<br />

EAM_WO_Cost_Details returns incorrect data.<br />

If a resource is associated with an operation sequence multiple times through different resource<br />

sequence numbers, the view returns incorrect data. This issue will be fixed in a future release.<br />

[23394]<br />

<strong>Oracle</strong> Database 9.2.x causes errors in views <strong>for</strong> Human Resources.<br />

On <strong>Oracle</strong> Database versions 9.2.0.3 and 9.2.0.4, views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Human Resources that use<br />

hierarchical structures, such as organizations and positions, may not work correctly, and the<br />

following error may appear: “ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data”. This error is due to a<br />

bug in the <strong>Oracle</strong> Database that first appeared in version 9.0.1.1.1 and was subsequently fixed<br />

with database patches. This bug reappeared in version 9.2.x of the database. At the time of this<br />

release, a patch from <strong>Oracle</strong> Corporation was unavailable <strong>for</strong> this bug.<br />

The affected views are HR_Org_Hierarchies, HR_Pos_Hier_Elem, and HR_Pos_Hierarchies.<br />

[11243]<br />

Error about check constraint logged.<br />

When <strong>Noetix</strong> views are generated or regenerated or when preupd.sql is run, if there are more<br />

than 1,000 <strong>Noetix</strong> roles, an error message similar to the following is logged: “ORA-02290: check<br />

constraint (…) violated”. Contact <strong>Noetix</strong> <strong>Technical</strong> <strong>Support</strong> <strong>for</strong> a workaround.<br />

[14432]<br />

Views <strong>for</strong> Order Management have per<strong>for</strong>mance problems in version 11.5, later.<br />

Some <strong>Noetix</strong> views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Order Management have per<strong>for</strong>mance-related problems in <strong>Oracle</strong><br />

E-Business Suite 11.5 and later. Order statuses are retrieved from the WF_ITEM_ACTIVITY<br />

STATUSES and WF_PROCESS_ACTIVITIES tables; the volume and distribution of data in these<br />

tables affect per<strong>for</strong>mance of these <strong>Noetix</strong> views. Sometimes, order statuses are retrieved from<br />

these tables repeatedly, and retrieval of each order status requires a separate join to <strong>Oracle</strong><br />

Workflow tables.<br />

The affected views are OE_Lines, OE_Order_Territories, and OE_Orders;<br />

OE_Order_Line_Status and OE_Order_Status may also be affected.<br />

Try one of the following workarounds:<br />

• Gather statistics <strong>for</strong> the ONT schema, using a sample size ranging from 30 to 51 percent.<br />

• Purge obsolete in<strong>for</strong>mation from the Workflow tables, as recommended by <strong>Oracle</strong>. These<br />

tables can become quite large, and their size directly affects per<strong>for</strong>mance of the views. For<br />

troubleshooting issues pertaining to workflow data growth, see Note 298550.1 on <strong>Oracle</strong><br />

MetaLink.<br />

• Substitute the Workflow tables used by the affected views with a materialized view or an<br />

equivalent data mart view.<br />

• Contact <strong>Noetix</strong> <strong>Technical</strong> <strong>Support</strong> <strong>for</strong> billable customizations of the affected views so that<br />

they do not use the order-status columns (sourced from the Workflow tables).<br />

[15994]<br />

Queries <strong>for</strong> Purchasing views may work incorrectly after upgrade to 11.5.10.<br />

After <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite is upgraded to version 11.5.10, time stamps will be stored <strong>for</strong> new<br />

PO receipts. For data that was created be<strong>for</strong>e the upgrade, the time stamp will be 00:00:00. As a<br />

result of this change, queries written <strong>for</strong> the views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Purchasing may not return rows <strong>for</strong><br />

transactions that happened after the upgrade unless these time stamps are taken into account.<br />

There<strong>for</strong>e, the queries should be modified. Solutions to this issue include truncating dates, using<br />

the TO_DATE function, and considering the 24-hour periods of dates.<br />

[16752]<br />

Columns return incorrect in<strong>for</strong>mation in views <strong>for</strong> Projects.<br />

In the views <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> Projects, the columns whose labels end with “To_Date” presently return<br />

incorrect values because future transactions are also taken into account. This known issue will be<br />

fixed in a future release.<br />

[19926]<br />

CRP_Department_Resource_Hours returns incorrect data.<br />

The Department_Resource_Hours column of the view returns zero when the shift number is not<br />

equal to 1. This issue will be fixed in a future release.<br />

[19947]<br />

Item category key flexfield columns may return data <strong>for</strong> irrelevant segments.<br />

For the standard and XOP <strong>for</strong>ms of the following views, the respective columns <strong>for</strong> the Item<br />

Categories key flexfield may return in<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>for</strong> segments pertaining to irrelevant structures:<br />

• EAM_Asset_In<strong>for</strong>mation: Asset_Cat$<br />

• EAM_WO_Matrl_Requirements: PO_Cat$, Purch_Cat$, and<br />

Req_Cat$<br />

• EAM_Work_Requests: Asset_Cat$<br />

• GMF_Overhead_Percentages: Cost_Cat$, GL_Cat$,<br />

View generation may take long time on <strong>Oracle</strong> Database 9.2.x.<br />

If generation of <strong>Noetix</strong> views takes a long time on <strong>Oracle</strong> Database 9.2.x, consider changing the<br />

init.ora parameters as follows:<br />

• _b_tree_bitmap_plans = FALSE<br />

• optimizer_index_cost_adj = 10<br />

• optimizer_index_caching = 90<br />

• optimizer_max_permutations = 80000<br />

<strong>Oracle</strong> recommends these parameter settings, and they should improve the overall per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />

of <strong>Noetix</strong> views. Applying the latest patches to the database or upgrading it to version 9.2.0.4<br />

should also improve per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />

FIXED ISSUES<br />

The fixed issues in <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> 6.0.1 <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite are as follows:<br />

Budget access levels displayed correctly <strong>for</strong> Type U, Type A, Type R users.<br />

In the <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite Administrator (<strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> Administrator), when<br />

a <strong>Noetix</strong> query user of the Database User (Type U), <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite Authenticated User<br />

(Type A), or <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite Authenticated Responsibility (Type R) type was assigned<br />

budget access levels on the Ledger/Set of Books tab of the Properties<br />

dialog box, the budget access levels did not appear on the tab after <strong>Noetix</strong> query user<br />

maintenance was completed. However, the security settings were applied to the <strong>Noetix</strong> query<br />

user.<br />

[23055, 23444]<br />

Pre-update process runs successfully during <strong><strong>Noetix</strong>Views</strong> upgrade.<br />

together with current data:<br />

• AP_Checks<br />

• AP_Invoice_Checks<br />

• AP_Invoice_Payments<br />

• PO_Invoice_Payments<br />

The views returned historical data because of date range records in the vendor bank or bank<br />

branch details. Now, the views return current vendor bank or bank branch details.<br />

For <strong>Oracle</strong> E-Business Suite Release 12 and later, the FA_AP_Lease_Pay_Details and<br />
