APPDAYPK

The APPDAYPK library contains the packages that control the Oracle Applications Calendar feature. The calendar (or the date picker) is a utility that oracle apps provide to pick the dates for a date type field.

FNDSQF

FNDSQF contains packages and procedures for Message Dictionary, flexfields, profiles, and concurrent processing. It also has various other utilities for navigation, multicurrency, WHO, etc. 23–4 Oracle Applications Developer’s Guide Procedures and functions in FNDSQF typically have names beginning with ”FND”.

Other Libraries

The template form also contains a few other libraries that are not linked directly to the template form, but are linked to the three libraries listed above. Although, while using the form it makes no difference whether the library is linked directly to template or to another library that is linked to template. These are discussed below.

CUSTOM library:

The CUSTOM library (CUSTOM.pll) is probably the most widely used and customized in the libraries attached to the template form. This library allows extension of Oracle Applications forms without modification of Oracle Applications code.

Any form goes to the CUSTOM.pll whenever any event fires on the form. Code can be written in the CUSTOM.pll with the logic branching based on the form, block and trigger on which you want it to run.

You can use the CUSTOM library for customizations such as Zoom (such as moving to another form and querying up specific records), enforcing business rules (for example, vendor name must be in uppercase letters), and disabling fields that do not apply for your site.

GLOBE:

The GLOBE library allows Oracle Applications developers to incorporate global or regional features into Oracle Applications forms

without modification of the base Oracle Applications form. Oracle Applications sends events to the GLOBE library. Regional code can

take effect based on these events. The GLOBE library calls routines in

the JA, JE, and JL libraries.

VERT:

The VERT library allows Oracle Applications developers to incorporate vertical industry features (for automotive, consumer packaged goods, energy, and other industries) into Oracle Applications forms without modification of the base Oracle Applications form. Oracle Applications sends events to the VERT library. Vertical industry code can take effect based on these events. The VERT library calls routines in various other libraries.

JA

The JA library contains code specific to the Asia/Pacific region and is called by the GLOBE library.

JE

The JE library contains code specific to the EMEA (Europe/MiddleEast/Africa) region and is called by the GLOBE library.

JL

The JL library contains code specific to the Latin America region and is called by the GLOBE library.
