Applications Product Subdirectories and File Types
Subdirectory Name Description
admin
The <PROD>_TOP/admin directory contains product-specific files used to upgrade each product. 
This is in distinction to the <APPL_TOP>/admin directory, which contains upgrade-related 
files for all products
odf
Contains object description files (.odf files) used to create tables and other database objects.
sql
Contains SQL*Plus scripts used to upgrade data, and .pkh, .pkb, and .pls scripts to create 
PL/SQL stored procedures.
bin
Contains concurrent programs, other C language programs and shell scripts for each product.
help
Contains the online help source files. Within this directory are subdirectories for each language installed.
   
APPLCSF
Identifies the top level directory for concurrent manager log and output files if they are
consolidated into a single directory across all products. For example, /inst/apps/<context>/logs/appl/conc.
APPLLOG
The subdirectory for concurrent manager log files. The default is log.
APPLOUT
The subdirectory for concurrent manager output files. The default is out.
APPLTMP
Identifies the directory for Oracle Applications temporary files. The default is $INST_TOP/tmp on UNIX.
APPLPTMP
Identifies the directory for temporary PL/SQL output files. The possible directory options must be listed 
in the init.ora parameter utl_file_dir. Rapid Install sets both APPLPTMP and the utl_file_dir parameter 
to the same default directory. On a multi-node system, the directory defined by APPLPTMP does not need 
to exist on the application tier servers.
INST_TOP
Identifies the top-level directory for this instance. For example, inst/apps/<context>.
Introduced with Release 12.
APPL_TOP
The top-level directory for this Oracle Applications installation.
ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME
Directory under $INST_TOP that Identifies the location of scripts such as adautocfg.sh, 
adpreclone.sh, adstrtal.sh, and adstpall.sh.
FNDNAM
The name of the ORACLE schema to which the System Administration responsibility connects. 
The default is APPS.
GWYUID
The public ORACLE username and password that grants access to the Oracle Applications 
initial sign-on form. The default is APPLSYSPUB/PUB.
FND_TOP
The path to the Application Object Library directory. For example, apps/apps_st/appl/fnd/12.0.0.
AU_TOP
The path to the Applications Utilities directory. For example, apps/apps_st/appl/au/12.0.0.
<PROD>_TOP
The path to a product's top directory. There is one entry for each Oracle Applications product.
