Configure the application context using message context properties in Oracle E-Business Suite

  • Članak

To perform operations on Oracle E-Business Suite artifacts using the Oracle E-Business adapter, you must set the application context appropriately. You can set the application context in the following ways:

  • By specifying the binding properties that the adapter exposes. For more information, see Set application context.

  • By using message context properties that the adapter exposes. You must consider the following when setting the application context by using message context properties.

    • You can set values only for ApplicationShortName, OrganizationID, ResponsibilityKey, and ResponsibilityName by using message context properties. For the user name and password, you must use the binding properties. The value specified for the ResponsibilityKey message context property overrides the value specified for the ResponsibilityName message context property.

    • If you set the application context using both the binding properties and message context properties, the values specified for message context properties take precedence and override the values specified for the binding properties. However, for example, if you specify the application short name as a message context property, and the organization ID and responsibility name as binding properties, only the value for the application short name is taken from the message context property. The rest are picked from the relevant binding properties.

    Why use message context properties over binding properties to set the application context? If you set the application context using binding properties, the WCF-Custom send port for the Oracle E-Business adapter can be used only for the specific organization ID, responsibility, and application that you specified for the binding properties. On the contrary, if you use the message context property, you can configure a “generic” WCF-Custom send port, and set the application context at the message level.

    Adapter clients must set the message context properties on the message that is sent to Oracle E-Business Suite to invoke an operation on Oracle E-Business Suite. The messages in BizTalk Server are immutable. Hence, clients must first create a message from the existing message, and then set the message context properties on the new message. For the procedure described in this section, assume that the existing message is called Request, and the new message is called New_Request.

Set the message context properties for BizTalk applications

  1. Open the BizTalk project in Visual Studio.

  2. In Solution Explorer, right-click References, and then click Add References.

  3. In the Add Reference dialog box, click the Browse tab, and then browse to the location where the BizTalk property schema DLL for the Oracle E-Business adapter is available.

    This DLL, Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.dll, is installed by the BizTalk Adapter Pack at <installation drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Adapter Pack\bin.

  4. Select the DLL, and then click Add.

  5. In the BizTalk orchestration, add a message, New_Request. For the Message Type property, make sure you select the same type as the existing request message.

  6. Before the Send shape using which the message is sent to the send port, add a Construct Message shape and within that, a Message Assignment shape.

  7. Double-click the Message Assignment shape to open BizTalk Expression Editor.

  8. In BizTalk Expression Editor, add the following, and then click OK:

    New_Request = Request;  
New_Request(Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.ApplicationShortName) = "AR";  
New_Request(Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.ResponsibilityKey) = "RECEIVABLES_VISION_OPERATIONS";  
New_Request(Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.ResponsibilityName) = "Receivables, Vision Operations (USA)";  
New_Request(Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.OrganizationId) = "204";

    Important

    The value specified for the ResponsibilityKey message context property overrides the value specified for the ResponsibilityName message context property.

  9. Make sure further processing of the orchestration is done by using the New_Request message.

  10. Before you can deploy this orchestration in BizTalk Server, you must add the assembly reference for Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.dll in the BizTalk application where you will be deploying the orchestration. To deploy an assembly in BizTalk Server:

    1. Start the BizTalk Server Administration console.

    2. In the console tree, expand BizTalk Group, then expand Applications, and then the application to which you want to add a BizTalk assembly.

    3. Right-click Resources, point to Add, and then click BizTalk Assemblies.

    4. In the Add Resources dialog box, click Add, navigate to the folder containing the BizTalk assembly file, which is <installation drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Adapter Pack\bin. Select the Microsoft.Adapters.OracleEBS.BiztalkPropertySchema.dll file, and then click Open.

    5. On the Options tab, specify the options for installing the BizTalk assembly to the global assembly cache (GAC), and then click OK.

Set the Language for Performing Operations

The Oracle E-Business adapter supports the Multi-Language Support (MLS) feature of Oracle E-Business Suite, and allows you to specify a language while performing operations. The adapter exposes the Language message context property to specify a language for performing operations.

The value specified for the Language message context property overrides the value of the Language binding property under the MlsSettings binding property. For more information about the MlsSettings binding property, see Read about the BizTalk Adapter for Oracle E-Business Suite binding properties.
