Managing Oracle Apps User Passwords


1.        Changing the oracle apps user password from Database


        DECLARE
           V_pwdchanged BOOLEAN;

      BEGIN
         v_pwdchanged := fnd_user_pkg.changepassword('USER_NAME','welcome@123');
         IF v_pwdchanged THEN
         DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('password changed Sucessfully');
         ELSE
         DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('Failed to change the Password');
        END IF;
      END;

2.        Force All Application users to Change their password


The script to expire all passwords in the fnd_user table is $FND_TOP/patch/115/sql/AFCPEXPIRE.sql.
It can be executed from SQL*Plus or as a Concurrent Program: sqlplus -s APPS/ @AFCPEXPIRE.sql
or Submit concurrent request: CP SQL*Plus Expire FND_USER Passwords
This script sets the fnd_user.password_date to null for all users which causes all user passwords to expire. It can also be run as a SQL*Plus concurrent program.
The user will need to create a new password upon the next login.

Customising PO Output For Communication Report in Oracle Purchasing

Once we select that option output will be rendered in PDF format in the browser instantly. Internally it will run the concurrent program 'PO Output For Communication'. This concurrent program is of JAVA type which will uses the seeded package  'PO_COMMUNICATION_PVT'  for generating the XML data and later this XML data will be processed and formatted by using the XSL template of data definition 'Standard Purchase Order Data Source' in case of standard PO's. Oracle by default will provide one standard BI publisher template for this. In case if we want to have custom layout for this report we can build a new template for the same data definition and this template has to be used while doing the setup for PO Document types. Creating Custom Template and Setup this for PO Document type: To c
