How To Generate A SQL Trace In OA Framework For Oracle Applications

Please perform the following steps to create a SQL trace of the actions done in the Framework pages:

1. Set profile 'FND: Diagnostics' to Yes at user level.
2. Login to Personal Home Page as that user and select the 'Diagnostics' icon at the top of the page.
3. Select `Set Trace Level? and click Go
4. Select the desired trace level and click Save
5. Write down the trace id number(s).
6. Perform the activity that you want to trace
7. Return to the 'Diagnostics' page.
8. Select `Set Trace Level' and click Go
9. Select 'Disable Trace' and click Go.
10. Write down the trace id number(s) if different.
11. Go to user_dump_dest for your database and collect the raw trace file(s)
      suffixes by the trace id number(s) you have recorded.
12. Exit Applications.

Note: you can identify the user_dump_dest directory in your environment by running the following SQL:

select name, value
from v$parameter
where name like 'user%';

If the user doesn't have the FND: Diagnostics set to Yes, then after they set it , they will need to bounce the Apache server and clear the cache, logout and log back in before they will see the Diagnostic link.
