Configure the binding properties for Oracle E-Business Suite

The Oracle E-Business adaptersurfaces several binding properties that enable you to control some of its behavioral characteristics. This section provides information about setting the binding properties from Visual Studio and from the BizTalk Server Administration console. From Visual Studio, you must specify the binding properties while generating schema for specific operations. From BizTalk Server, you must specify the binding properties as part of the send or receive port for sending or receiving messages from Oracle E-Business Suite.

For information about the binding properties, including a list of binding properties for the Oracle E-Business adapter, see Read about the BizTalk Adapter for Oracle E-Business Suite Binding Properties.

Specifying Binding Properties from Visual Studio

From Visual Studio, you must specify the binding properties using the Consume Adapter Service Add-in or the Add Adapter Metadata Wizard.

To specify binding properties using Consume Adapter Service Add-in

  1. Right-click your BizTalk project, and then select Add Generated Items.

  2. In the Add Generated Items dialog box, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Categories Click Consume Adapter Service.
    Templates Click Consume Adapter Service.
  3. To start the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, click Add.

  4. In the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, from the Select a binding drop-down list, select oracleEBSBinding, and then click Configure.

  5. In the Configure Adapter dialog box, click the Binding Properties tab, and then specify the different binding properties.

  6. Click OK.

To specify binding properties using Add Adapter Metadata Wizard

  1. Right-click your BizTalk project, point to Add, and then click Add Generated Items.

  2. In the Add Generated Items dialog box, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Categories Click Add Adapter.
    Templates Click Add Adapter Metadata.
  3. Click Add. The Add Adapter Metadata Wizard opens.

  4. In the Add Adapter Metadata Wizard, select WCF-OracleEBS. Select the computer on which BizTalk Server is installed and the name of the BizTalk database.

    Important

    If you already have a WCF-OracleEBS port configured in BizTalk, select the port from the Port list.

  5. Click Next.

  6. In the Consume Adapter Service dialog box, from the Select a binding list, select oracleEBSBinding, and then click Configure.

  7. Click the Binding Properties tab, and specify the binding values, if any, which are required before generating the schema. For more information about binding properties, see Read about the BizTalk Adapter for Oracle E-Business Suite Binding Properties.

    Note

    If you selected an existing WCF-OracleEBS send port, you need not specify the binding properties. The binding properties are picked from the send port configuration. However, you may choose to specify the binding properties that are required at design-time, if any. In such a case, the new values for binding properties will be used at design-time while generating the metadata. However, at run-time the values specified for binding properties in the send port configuration will be applicable.

  8. Click OK.

Specifying Binding Properties from the BizTalk Server Administration Console

From the BizTalk Server Administration console, you must specify the binding properties as part of the WCF-Custom or WCF-OracleEBS port configuration.

To specify binding properties for the WCF-Custom port

  1. Start the BizTalk Server Administration console.

  2. In the console tree, expand BizTalk Group, then expand Applications, and then expand the application under which you want to create a port, and click Send Ports or Receive Ports. In the right pane, you can choose to create a port or select an existing port.

  3. In the port properties dialog box, from the Type drop-down list, select WCF-Custom, and then click Configure.

    Note

    To see the location properties dialog box for a receive port, click the Receive Location tab on the left pane of the port properties dialog box, and then click New.

  4. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, click the Binding tab.

  5. From the Binding Type list, select oracleEBSBinding.

  6. In the Configuration box, specify the values for the different binding properties, and then click OK.

To specify binding properties for the WCF-OracleEBS port

  1. Start the BizTalk Server Administration console.

  2. Add the WCF-OracleEBS adapter to the BizTalk Server Administration console. For instructions, see Adding the Oracle E-Business Suite Adapter to BizTalk Server Administration Console.

  3. In the console tree, expand BizTalk Group, then expand Applications, and then expand the application under which you want to create a port, and click Send Ports or Receive Ports. In the right pane, you can choose to create a port or select an existing port.

  4. In the port properties dialog box, from the Type drop-down list, select the WCF-OracleEBS adapter you added earlier, and then click Configure.

    Note

    To see the location properties dialog box for a receive port, click the Receive Location tab on the left pane of the port properties dialog box, and then click New.

  5. In the transport properties dialog box, click the Binding tab and specify values for binding properties.

    Note

    The binding properties are displayed based on whether you are configuring a send port or a receive port. For example, binding properties related to notifications are not available while configuring a send port because notifications are inbound operations and require a receive port configuration.
