Setting Up Migration and Patch Approval Lists

If an environment requires the approval of certain users before an archive set can be migrated into it or a patch can be applied, you can specify who these users are in the Migration Approval List and Patch Approval List tabs of the Application Options window. To open this window, select the environment you want and click App Options in the Oracle Application Environment Connection Maintenance table.

When setting up a migration or patch approval list, you can include different approver groups, including individual users and entire user classes or a combination of the two. The approval of any user or user class that you add to a list can be either required or optional.

Approval requirements that involve multiple approver groups or that can be satisfied in more than one way are defined using AND and OR operators. As you add approver groups using AND and OR operators, Stat displays the list as a tree structure and in the form of a SQL statement at the bottom of the window.

For example, let’s say a migration to a particular environment in the Financial Services service domain can be approved in one of two ways:

 

•
By a certain user AND at least one user in the Administrator user class
OR
•
By at least two users in the Fin Developer user class

In this case, your approval list would look like this:

To further illustrate, let’s say that the migration must be approved by:

•
Two users, one of whom is required
AND
•
At least one user in the Administrator user class OR at least two users in the Fin Developer user class.

In this case, the approval list would look like this:

* 
NOTE: Migration and patch approval lists closely resemble status transfer approval lists and the procedures for defining them are much the same. For more information on migration approval lists, see Setting Up Transfer Approval Lists .

It is recommended that before setting up a migration or patch approval list, you have a basic idea of what approver groups (users and user classes) you want involved in the approval process as well as the relationships between these groups, which you define using AND and OR operators. For example, if the approval of one or more approver groups are required, you would begin the approval list with the AND operator. If, however, the approval of only one of two or more approver groups is required, you would begin the list with the OR operator.

To set up a migration or patch approval list:
1
Do one of the following:
•
Click AND if the approval of one or more approver groups are required
•
Click OR if the approval of one of two or more approver groups are required
The operator icon is added to the approval list diagram.
2
Click on the AND or OR operator icon you just added.
* 
TIP: The icon background appears blue when selected and changes to gray when other fields or action buttons are activated. As long as the background of the operator icon is blue or gray, then approver groups and other operators can be attached to the operator.
3
In the Service Domain field, select the service domain that you plan to associate the environment with in the Oracle Applications Migration Path Maintenance table.
4
In the Approver Type field, select the approver group you want to add to the list.
Options include User and User Class.
When adding approvers, be aware of the following:
•
Although you can add any user or class to an approval list, be aware that only users that have access to an environment and the selected service domain (as defined in the User Maintenance table) will be able to approve a patch application or migration into that environment or receive email notifications regarding their pending approval. If an approver does not have access to the environment, the patch or migration cannot be approved until either the user is granted access to the environment or the approval requirements are overridden by another user with proper security rights. For this reason, it is recommended that you first verify users have access to a particular environment and service domain before adding them to an approval list.
•
Adding individual users to approval lists could create problems if those same users are later inactivated or have their service domain and environment access restricted. For this reason, it is recommended that you add user classes to approval lists rather than individual users whenever possible.
•
Users assigned to a migration or patch approval list must have the user class rights to operate in the same change management module in which the migration takes place. Also, you can assign user class rights that enable users to migrate objects or apply patches regardless of approval status and also to approve migrations and patches on the behalf of other users.
5
In the Approver Name field, select the name of the user or user class you want to add.
6
In the Required field, select Required if the approval is required or Optional if it is not required.
The Required option means that the individual user and every member of the user class must approve the migration or patch. Optional means that the individual user’s approval is not required, whereas for user classes, it means that the approval of only a specified minimum number of users within that class is required.
7
If you selected User Class in the Approver Type field and Optional in the Required field, specify the minimum number of users in that class who must approve the migration or patch in the Number field.
8
Click Add.
The approver is added to the tree structure under its approver group label and the initial AND or OR operator. Required approvers are displayed in bold.
At this point, how you proceed depends on the different approver groups you want to add to the list and how you want to define the relationships between these groups using AND and OR operators.
9
(Optional) Do the following to add additional AND or OR operators to your approval list:
a
Depending on the relationship between approver groups in your list, select the operator icon to which you want to attach additional operators.
b
Click AND or OR.
c
Repeat as necessary to add more operator icons to the approval diagram.
10
(Optional) To add additional user classes, select the appropriate operator icon in the approval diagram and repeat steps 4 through 8.
When you the first add an individual user to an approval list, Stat automatically creates the ad hoc group “users” in the approval diagram and attaches it to the appropriate operator icon. All subsequent users you add to the list must belong to this group.
* 
TIP: In a scenario in which you want to create approval relationships between multiple user approver groups, you may consider adding users to new user classes or queues created expressly for this purpose.
11
(Optional) To add additional users, select the “users” group and repeat steps 4 through 8.
12
(Optional) Do any of the following to edit the diagram as needed:
•
To change an operator from AND to OR or from OR to AND, right-click on the icon.
•
To change the Required status of an approver, right click on it in the diagram. This changes required user classes to optional with 1 minimum user approval.
•
To change the minimum number of user approvals in an optional user class, double-click on the group label and specify the minimum number of user approvals you want.
•
To move approver groups or entire operator relationships, click and hold on the group label or operator icon and drag and drop to a different operator icon in the diagram.
•
To delete approver groups or entire operator relationships, click and hold on the group label or operator icon and drag and drop to the Trash Can icon.
13
Click OK or Apply.

If an environment requires the approval of certain users before an archive set can be migrated into it or a patch can be applied, you can specify who these users are in the Migration Approval List and Patch Approval List tabs of the Application Options window. To open this window, select the environment you want and click App Options in the Oracle Application Environment Connection Maintenance table.

When setting up an approval list, you can include individual users, entire user classes, or a combination of the two. Also, the approval of any user or user class that you add to a list can be either required or optional.

To add users to an approval list:
1
Depending on the type of approval list you want, select either the Migration Approval List tab or the Patch Approval List tab.
2
Click New.
3
In the Approver Type field, select User.
4
In the Approver Name field, select the name of the user you want to add.
5
Select Required if the user’s approval is required.
If you do not select the check box, the user’s approval is optional.
6
Repeat steps 1 through 4 to add as many users to the list as needed.
7
If you added more than one optional user, enter the minimum number of optional users whose approval is required in the Min Approver (s) for Optional Users field.
This number must be equal to or less than the number of optional users.
To add user classes to an approval list:
1
Select the service domain for this environment.
2
Click New.
3
In the Approver Type field, select Class.
4
In the Approver Name field, select the user class you want to add.
5
Select Required if the approval of every user in the class is required.
Do not select the check box if the approval of only a certain number of users in the class is required.
6
If you did not Required, enter the number of users belonging to the class whose approval is required in the Min Approver (s) for Optional Classes field.

Updating Products per Environment

Each Oracle Applications environment you define may feature a different set of Oracle Applications products. In order to utilize Stat’s change management support for proprietary Oracle Applications file objects, as well as apply product-specific Oracle patches to the appropriate environments, you need to specify the products that each environment contains. For Oracle Apps Setup objects, each environment may have a different list of active products. To retrieve the proper list of Setup Objects in Stat, it is imperative that the list of products are updated. This is done in the Products tab of the Application Options window.

* 
IMPORTANT: Many new features in Stat supporting R12.2 rely on the Release Level of the AD record in the list of products for each environment. After successfully starting the Oracle agent, the next step is to update the product list for each R12.2 environment.

Except for the Active check box, the Products tab is read-only. It displays a list of all the products contained in the selected environment. When you first define an environment, or when you install new Oracle Applications products to a particular environment, you should update the environment’s product list. To do this, click Update Products. This sends a request to the Stat Oracle Agent, which updates the list with any fully installed, shared, or custom products it finds.

* 
NOTE: You can also update the products list of an environment in the Products tab of the Oracle Application Configuration window. For more information, see Updating Products .

Copying Oracle Applications Environments

If you need to define an Oracle Applications environment that closely resembles an existing Oracle Applications environment, you can save time by copying the definition of the existing environment and editing the copy as needed. When you copy an Oracle Applications environment, all the information gets copied over, including server definitions and approval lists.

To copy an Oracle Application environment definition:
1
In the Oracle Application Environment Connection Maintenance window, select the environment definition you want to copy. Then click Copy.
Stat prompts you to specify an environment code and short description.
2
Specify the environment code and short description. Then click OK.
3
Edit the new Oracle Application environment definition as needed.

Generic Application Connection Maintenance

The GenApps Environment Connection Maintenance table defines the generic (non-PeopleSoft and non-Oracle Applications) application environments connected to Stat. The table closely resembles the connection maintenance tables for PeopleSoft and Oracle Applications, and many of the maintenance procedures are the same. Within the definition for each environment is the information Stat needs to connect to it.

Connection security for generic applications is controlled by the following user class rights:

•
Generic App. Connection - Add
•
Generic App. Connection - Edit

The GenApps Environment Connection Maintenance table is displayed in a standard maintenance window. To open this window, select Maintenance | General | Generic Application Connect.
