Data load parameters in BIACM in Biapps11G(11.1.1.8.1)

We can not add new dataload parameter in BIACM console.But if we add in back end tables that will be reflected in BIACM.


 We can achieve it from the backend, by inserting into BIACOMP schema tables. But, please note that Oracle would not support such customisations as it is beyond the scope of product.
In Our project we had a requirement of micro etl load where we wanted a parameter to be  introduced in BIACM. But there is no option to add from front end. So, we had tried the below POC.
On same lines, it is possible to add additional parameters and associate them with JDE source. The below example is with respect to EBS.

Note: Although below solution worked, we did not follow this approach for implementing micro ETL as it was not recommended by Oracle. So, we had to come up with alternate approach using custom tables in WH schema.

1.            Introduce new parameter MICRO in BIACM. This is done by manually inserting a record in C_PARAM, C_PARAM_DW_VAL and C_PARAM_DW_VAL_AUDIT  tables in BIACOMP schema.
2.            We need to associate this parameter with EBS R 12.1.3
3.            The scope should be global
4.            Any load plan created with EBS R 12.1.3 as source will list MICRO as one of the data load parameters.
5.            This value is editable. Default is set to ‘N’.
6.            In ODI, a new variable IS_MICRO can be created with refresh query as getcmparam('MICRO','#DATASOURCE_NUM_ID') . This will help in fetching the value for MICRO from BIACM.
