APPLIES TO:
Oracle Inventory Management – Version 11.5.10.CU2 to 12.1.3 [Release 11.5.10 to 12.1]
Oracle Bills of Material – Version 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.3 [Release 11.5 to 12.1]

GOAL
This document addresses the below questions:?
1. How do you enable trace for an API when executed from a SQL script outside of Oracle Applications ??
2. How to get the debug log for APIs? when executed from a SQL script outside of Oracle Applications ??
a) Inventory APIs
b) Bills of Material and Engineering APIs?
c) Advanced Product Catalog (APC / EGO/ PIM) APIs
Note: Debug profiles are specific to modules, but,? trace can be enabled for any API by following the steps provided here.
SOLUTION
1: How do you enable trace for an API when executed from a SQL script outside of Oracle Applications ?
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS ‘10046 trace name context forever, level 12‘;
— Set the trace file identifier, to locate the file on the server
ALTER SESSION SET TRACEFILE_IDENTIFIER = ‘API_TRACE‘;
— Execute the API from the SQL script, in the same session.
EXEC <procedure name> ;?
— Once the API completes execution, disable trace
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS ‘10046 trace name context off‘;
— Locate the trace file based on the tracefile identifier
SELECT VALUE FROM V$PARAMETER WHERE NAME = ‘user_dump_dest‘;?
— Generate the tkprof of the trace file
tkprof <trace_File>.trc <tkprof>.out sys=no explain=apps/<apps pwd>

2: How do you get debug log for an API when executed from a SQL script outside of Oracle Applications ?
a) For Inventory APIs
i. Enable INV Debug profiles at User level for the user who would be running the API.
For example:
INV:Debug level = 15
INV: Debug File = /tmp/invdbg_TAR.dbg??
For more information, on INV Debug profiles, Please refer to?Note 148651.1
ii. Add the below declarations to the sql script calling the API outside of Oracle Applications.
l_user_id NUMBER := -1;
l_resp_id NUMBER := -1;
l_application_id NUMBER := -1;
l_user_name VARCHAR2(30) := ‘MFG‘;? — user name
l_resp_name VARCHAR2(30) := ‘Inventory‘; — responsibility name
iii. Add the below code before the API is called in the SQL script. This will initialize applications context, and will use the values of the debug profiles set for this user.
SELECT user_id
INTO l_user_id
FROM fnd_user
WHERE user_name = l_user_name;
— Get the application_id and responsibility_id
SELECT application_id, responsibility_id
INTO l_application_id, l_resp_id
FROM fnd_responsibility_vl
WHERE responsibility_name = l_resp_name;
FND_GLOBAL.APPS_INITIALIZE(l_user_id, l_resp_id, l_application_id); — Mfg / Mfg & Dist Mgr / INV
dbms_output.put_line(‘Initialized applications context: ‘|| l_user_id || ‘ ‘|| l_resp_id ||‘ ‘|| l_application_id );
iv. Now, go ahead and execute the API from the SQL script, this willl create the debug log file with the file name as provided in the profile “INV: Debug File”.

b) For Bills of Material & Engineering APIs
i. Initialize the below parameters to the API:
p_debug => ‘Y‘,
p_output_dir => ‘/usr/tmp‘,?? — Directory from utl_file_dir
p_debug_filename => ‘bom_api_debug.log‘? — Debug log filename
);
ii. Now run the API script or procedure created, This will create the debug log in the directory as mentioned in the parameters.
For example:
p_api_version_number => 1.0,
p_init_msg_list => TRUE,
p_bom_header_rec => l_bom_header_rec,
p_bom_revision_tbl => l_bom_revision_tbl,
p_bom_component_tbl => l_bom_component_tbl,
p_bom_ref_designator_tbl => l_bom_ref_designator_tbl,
p_bom_sub_component_tbl => l_bom_sub_component_tbl,
x_bom_header_rec => x_bom_header_rec,
x_bom_revision_tbl => x_bom_revision_tbl,
x_bom_component_tbl => x_bom_component_tbl,
x_bom_ref_designator_tbl => x_bom_ref_designator_tbl,
x_bom_sub_component_tbl => x_bom_sub_component_tbl,
x_return_status => l_return_status,
x_msg_count => l_msg_count ,
p_debug => ‘Y‘,
p_output_dir => ‘/usr/tmp‘,?
p_debug_filename => ‘bom_api_debug.log‘
);

c) For Advanced Product Catalog (APC / PIM / EGO) APIs
i. Initialize the below parameters to the API:
p_debug_level => 3?? — 0 – No debug, 3 – finest debug information
);
ii. Now run the API script or procedure created, This will create the debug log in the directory (as in ‘utl_file_dir‘ DB parameter, for ex: /usr/tmp)
For example:
????????????? l_api_version
????????????? , l_object_name
????????????? , l_attributes_row_table
????????????? , l_attributes_data_table
????????????? , l_pk_column_name_value_pairs
????????????? , l_class_code_name_value_pairs
????????????? , l_user_privileges_on_object
????????????? , l_entity_id
????????????? , l_entity_index
????????????? , l_entity_code
????????????? , l_debug_level
????????????? , l_init_error_handler
????????????? , l_write_to_concurrent_log
????????????? , l_init_fnd_msg_list
????????????? , l_log_errors
????????????? , l_add_errors_to_fnd_stack
????????????? , l_commit
????????????? , x_failed_row_id_list
????????????? , x_return_status
????????????? , x_errorcode
????????????? , x_msg_count
????????????? , x_msg_data
