For Oracle Applications R12, be sure to review the following note before testing:

Note 1192904.1 QP_MODIFIERS_PUB.Process_Modifiers API Is Not Creating A Modifier or Is Not Processing Update Or Is Not Creating
Qualifiers Yet Completes Successfully.

This note outlines setup considerations in regards to the parameters being used.

Steps to verify the creation of modifier(s).

1. Log into Oracle Applications

2. Responsibility: Oracle Pricing Manager

3. Navigate to: Modifiers > Modifier Setup

Troubleshooting Tips

error message: Modifier date range must be within Modifier list date range

solution: Check the values populated for l_MODIFIER_LIST_rec.end_date_active and l_MODIFIERS_tbl(1).end_date_active. If both are the same value, (for instance l_MODIFIER_LIST_rec.end_date_active := sysdate+10;

and l_MODIFIERS_tbl(1).end_date_active := sysdate+10;)

then change the value for l_MODIFIER_LIST_rec.end_date_active := sysdate+11 to account for any timestamp variations.

error message: Phase is invalid and one has assigned l_MODIFIERS_tbl(1).pricing_phase_id := 2;

solution: Ensure that 2 is a valid phase that has not been end dated.

select * from qp_event_phases where pricing_phase_id = 2;
