  1. Login to RUEI web interface.
  2. Select Configuration > Applications > Suites.
  3. Select your E-Business Suite application.

Add Database SID Cookie

To ensure RUEI tracks sessions correctly in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, add a cookie that is the SID name of the EBS database (an Oracle database SID). This cookie is required to obtain the correct session IDs in Forms based spans. Without a session ID, Forms spans will not be associated with the Browser spans.

How to find the cookie name from the browser.
  1. Open the EBS home page with a Firefox browser.
  2. Right-mouse click to open Inspect.
  3. Select Network tab.
  4. Login to EBS
  5. Select the first JSP page after the login.
  6. Select Cookies tab.
  7. In the Request Cookies section, find a cookie that is the name of SID of the EBS database.

    For example, the cookie name can be ebsdb.

Database SID name
Note

The cookie name is read from the EBS database and it may be different from the above example.

The session ID parameter is a unique number to track user activities.

To collect Forms names used in the user's Forms navigation, add a Session ID parameter.

  1. Login to RUEI web interface.
  2. Select Configuration > Applications > Suites.
  3. Select your E-Business Suite application.
  4. Select Advanced > Forms
  5. Update the session parameter to JsessionIDForms.
