Online Patches: From “Downtime” to “Cutover”
• Critical business operations will not be interrupted
by maintenance operations
• Revenue generating activities stay online
• Business users stay online
• Downtime required by any patch is predictable
- Measured in minutes, not days or hours
• Global single instances remain operational 24x7
- Maintenance window easier to allocate as shorter time
required

• EBS data model now has a cover layer
- A logical rather than physical representation is presented
- Editioning views provide this cover layer
- Editioning views project different views of a table to the Run
and Patch Edition if the data model of a table is patched
• All code must access EBS data via this cover
layer!
- Accessing the data model via the physical layer may result
in obsolete data been returned
Logical view of the Application Data Model

Logical view of the Data Model
All code must access the data model via the APPS synonym!• APPS synonym points to the Editioning View (Logical Model) • Any code accessing the physical model risks accessing obsolete

EBS 12.1 and 12.2 Roadmap
![Page 21: On the Way to EBS R12.2- How to Avoid the Pitfalls Webinar](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547cb10fb4af9f635b8b4733/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Which version should you to upgrade to?• Choose 12.2.2 if you:
- Need the high availability provided by Online Patching
- Want the functional enhancements that are in 12.2
- Prefer to invest in a single project to upgrade directly to 12.2
• Choose 12.1.3 if you:- Prefer to target a release with thousands of live
customers
- Would like to stay on 12.1 for 3-5 years before upgrading to 12.2
- Upgrading from a release prior to 11.5.10.2

The Challenge
• Upgrade from EBS 11.5.10 to R12.1.3 on time and within project budget
• Identify impacted customizations before requesting bids from system integrators in order to retain full control over project costs and scope
28
![Page 29: On the Way to EBS R12.2- How to Avoid the Pitfalls Webinar](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547cb10fb4af9f635b8b4733/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Solution
• Signed up for a trial with Panaya
• Within 48 hours we received:
A listing of all customizations and usage
Person-Hour estimates for each code correction task
Detailed steps, code snippets and even Oracle
Support references to complete each task
• Purchased a Panaya subscription
• Partnered with a System Integrator (SI)
29
![Page 30: On the Way to EBS R12.2- How to Avoid the Pitfalls Webinar](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547cb10fb4af9f635b8b4733/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Step 1: Identify Project Scope and Select System Integrator
• Identified in-scope code corrections based on object usage and priority
• Included Panaya analysis in the RFP document sent out to system integrators
• System Integrators submitted accurate quotes and timelines based on project
scope (# of customizations and enhancements) and estimate of hours required

Step 2: Pre-Upgrade Code Corrections
• Panaya identified code corrections that could be made in 11i before the project
began.
• Gave these code corrections to support team to fix in record time
• This exercise gave our IT team time to become familiar with the Panaya tool
before the project started

Step 3: Code Corrections
• Panaya took care of the Discovery, Analysis and Design phases of
impacted objects, significantly reducing the time & effort that would
normally be allocated to this portion of the project
• Synaptics’ team was able to focus on the business valuable activities

Step 4: Testing
• Panaya analysis on test instances demonstrated that all code was corrected
• Unit testing progress was tracked in Panaya
• IT Functional Testing took place before each round of user testing
• Users participated in three rounds of functional testing before the project went live (CRP1, CRP2, UAT)
• Panaya’s analysis on test instances demonstrated that all code was corrected, therefore test plan focused on key enhancements and end-to-end functional processes with much less emphasis on testing corrected programs and reports.

The Result
• Project went live on time and under budget using a
fixed bid contract
• 42% cost savings compared to similar projects
• Team was able to focus resources on delivering
valuable enhancements and business process
improvements instead of on a routine technical
upgrade
• 99% of customizations worked as expected upon going
live

![Page 42: On the Way to EBS R12.2- How to Avoid the Pitfalls Webinar](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547cb10fb4af9f635b8b4733/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Advice
• Analyze your system using Panaya before beginning the
project
• Run a Panaya analysis early and often to get an accurate
estimate of the number of customizations and their usage
(best to start a month or two before project begins)
• Continue running Panaya analyses throughout development
and testing phases to help auto-close development tasks
and to report and assign new tasks based on usage changes
• Shorten the code freeze period by allowing project scope
flexibility with your partner SI
