Dear All,

There is an issue with our database APPS schema Views which using SYS_Context conditions like below

create or replace view <apps>.<view_Name>
is 
  select * from <> <>
   where
  <condition-1>
   .
   .
  <condition -n>
  AND (SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW') = '$USERTYPE$INTERNAL'
  OR SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW')   = '$USERTYPE$ASSOCIATED' );

.

If i remove last two conditions(Sys_context) view is working fine. but not with those conditions.

Could any help me to to understand the issue?

Thanks in advance!!

- Vijay

Are you saying that you simply get "no rows selected"?

Yes. It is not populating any data. Mean time if i remove last two conditions (Sys_context) from the query, it is populating rows. Sad

What does this return:

select SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW') from dual;

select SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW') from dual;

This returning NULL.

NULL is not equal to '$USERTYPE$INTERNAL' or to '$USERTYPE$ASSOCIATED'.

dbms_Session.set_context. You'll need to sort out whether it is a global context or a local context, have access to the package that controls it, and so on.

There is nothing to "fix" if the condition is that the context must have one of this value or the other one then you have the expected result.
If this condition (SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW') = '$USERTYPE$INTERNAL'
OR SYS_CONTEXT('CDR_VIEW', 'ENABLE_VIEW') = '$USERTYPE$ASSOCIATED') is not necessary then remove it from your view definition.

This is APPS schema view. I should not remove those conditions from view. Due to some misconfiguration i'm getting this error. I am trying to figure out where to change these settings.

If this is a standard view then the result is the expected one for the product.
If this is not the result you want then create your own view.
Or set or make the product set the value context somewhere.

The filter on the view is to filter who sees the data. If you are excluded then the application doesn't want you to have the data. This is how oracle applications words. You almost never have access to the under laying tables. You only have access to the views and they filter the views depending on how the application sets the context values.
