In previous entries, I discussed how the template tables are
the tables where the metadata associated with the view "classes" are kept. These classes are instantiated using the
Noetix View Administrator to correspond
with the Noetix Views purchased as well as your implementation of Oracle
Application (e.g. the set-ups associated
with your company’s ledger(s)/legal entity (ies)/operating unit(s)/organization(s)).
Most of your hook scripts will be associated with
modifications to these tables using the wnoetxu2.sql script. After
more than a trivial amount of invocations are created, some logic and structure
is advised.
My approach is to sequentially enter scripts dependent on
what modification(s) are being made:
1. Section
for packages, functions and procedures: The motivations for having this section first is that it is more likely to have other sections below depend on it.
2. Section
for custom and customizing base view: Base views are Noetix's answer to the inline view/derived table. It is useful because it is easier to evaluate its performance than an inline view/derived table. Again, many of the sections following this might need to depend on this section, consequently I see it as important to lump these base view modifications together.
3. Section
for LOV Views: While I have created custom views which are specifically for generating LOV (very much like Noetix does), I have not really used this section much. It is driven by customer requirement (and it has not been required).
4. Section
for Clone Views: In general, I like to clone directly off of the "out of the box" Noetix Views as opposed to a Noetix View which has been modified. It is important to be cognizant of the sequence of invocation regarding the parent and child views associated with a cloning. This sequence usually can be the difference between an error being thrown or not.
5. Section
for Custom Views Not Cloned: I just find it valuable to keep these view separate because whenever a migration needs to occur to another version of Noetix Views or Oracle Applications, this section needs special attention.
6. Standard
Modification of Views: These are the modifications that one can get certified to change. All the other view changes above (except the base view modifications) really are not encouraged to be modified. That is Noetix really does not encourage clones or custom views nor is it taught in their Noetix View Customization Certification.
Here is an example of a wnoetxu2.sql script following this
organizational method:
