I do have one more question on this - any advice on what the system is expecting to be defined as a Backup File Directory location on the External File Template\Input Tab\File Name-Path Options? Or where an ‘backup oracle directory’ is defined - either in the application or elsewhere? No mater what we’ve tried, we get a ORA-29280: invalid directory path error when the background job executes. We are trying to see how all of the functionality works before defining our process and can’t quite get this last bit to work properly.
We were still having no luck with this. I set a shared directory path in System Parameters, input the file name to be loaded in the template, and input a local path in the template. I also tried clicking on ‘output file’ in the Assistant, but still could not proceed to setting up a schedule. Turns out that the template I was using was one we migrated from Apps 7.5. When I switched to using a template that originated in Apps 10 I was able to get to the parameters and proceed to the schedule just fine. I just made a new template with the Details as I want them and am able to continue set-up/testing.
