EBS 11i Application Desktop Integrator (ADI) Certified on 10gR2 Database

Client Applications Desktop Integrator (ADI) is now certified with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i running on the 10gR2 Database.  Customers may continue using the client-installed ADI even after upgrading their E-Business Suite Release 11i environment to the 10gR2 Database.

This certification applies to all ADI functionality, including:

  • General Ledger Journal Wizard
  • Budget Wizard
  • Report Wizard
  • Analysis Wizard
  • Account Hierarchy Editor
  • Request Center
  • Assets Integrators

Note that this certification applies only to Client ADI with Applications 11i.  Client ADI cannot be used with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12; webADI is available for Release 12 users.

Hello Steven

The doc 747386.1 says
"Applies to:
Applications Desktop Integrator - Version: 7.2.8 to 7.2.11"

but then further down it says

"Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What additional patches do I need?
A: None. If you are already using Client ADI, just continue doing so. No client-side patching is needed. If you are not yet using Client ADI, download Client ADI from Metalink (patch details are included above). As mentioned above, the installation and use of ADI is no different with 10g then it was with earlier versions of the database"

We are using Client ADI 7.1.35.10.01, so does this mean we need to upgrade to 7.2 or can we continue on 7.1.35.10.01 as the FAQ suggest ie. "None. If you are already using Client ADI, just continue doing so .."

I don't think it says that we need to upgrade to 7.2 anywhere on the doc, but the doc does not include 7.1.x. Any idea whether we need to upgrade to 7.2 or can we carry on as we are ?
Thanks for your previous replies.

Hello, David,

I'm afraid that I'm in the dark on this one. I've passed your question on to the team that owns Note 747386.1. I'll post their reply here if they respond.

I suspect that you might get a quicker answer to your question via a formally-logged Service Request on Metalink.

Good luck with this one.

Regards,
Steven

Hello, David,

Our ADI Support team confirms that you can continue to run on Client ADI 7.1.35.10.01 without upgrading.

Steven

Hi Steven,

I recently upgraded my users to Client ADI 7.2.10 so that it will be compatible with Office 2007 when they eventually get upgraded. Some of my users however are on Office 2007 already and they are experiencing a very slow processing of Reports in spreadsheet format. I ran a test as well to confirm and indeed it is really slow (hovering at about 1 hr) and utilizes 100% of CPU. This happens when the request is complete and you attempt to view output. I believe this is caused by the conversion activities taking place to change from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007. My client is using a duo core processor with 2 GB of RAM. Is there anything you can suggest or know of any solutions to fixing this problem so that the computer is not locked up and other activities can be done.

Thanks,
William

Steven Chan:

Hi, William,

That certainly sounds troubling. My ADI expertise is pretty shallow so I don't have any advice, I'm afraid.

Can you log a formal Service Request via Metalink against ADI and send me the SR number? I can forward it to the ADI Development team on your behalf.

Regards,
Steven

Steve,

Any words on whether we will be certifying Desktop ADI with EBS 11i on RDBMS 11g?

Thanks!
Dom

Hi, Dom,

The Desktop ADI team is working on this right now. I don't have firm schedules for this certification yet, but you're welcome to monitor or subscribe to this blog for updates, which I'll post as soon as soon as they're available.

Regards,
Steven

Dominic:

Thanks so much for the quick response Steven, as always.

Wade:

Is Client ADI going to be certified for use with Windows 7?

Hi, Wade,

I'm afraid not. Our ADI team discovered compatibility issues with Microsoft Vista, so ADI is not certified on that operating system. Windows 7 has the same issues, and ADI will not be certified on that version, either.

The ADI team has stated that all customers should migrate to WebADI, the web-based version of their tool, to get compatibility with these latest operating systems.

Regards,
Steven
