Setting the Maximum Number of Nested Domains

In Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub you define Library Domains to contain object definitions, Application Areas and, if you allow Domain nesting, other Domains.

See "Designing an Organizational Structure" in the Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub Implementation Guide for further information. Use the Domain Nest Value profile to determine whether Domain nesting is allowed in your implementation and, if it is, how many levels of Domain nesting are allowed:

  • If the domain nest value is set to 1, no nesting of Domains is allowed. Your implementation cannot have Domains contained in other Domains.
  • If the value is set to 2, which is the default, a top-level Domain can contain a child Domain, but the child Domain cannot contain a Domain.
  • If the value is set to 3, child Domains can contain Domains, but those Domains cannot contain other Domains. The maximum setting is 9.

Note:

The setting of the domain nest value profile does not affect the total number of Domains allowed, only the number of nested levels allowed. For example, if the value is set to 2, child Domains cannot contain Domains. However, parent Domains can contain any number of child Domains.

To change the maximum number of nested Domains allowed in your Oracle LSH implementation from the default value of 2, do the following:

  1. Log in. See How to Log In to Oracle Applications Profile Forms.
  2. Click in the Profile enter LSH: Domain Nesting Levels or some part of that string followed by the wild card: %
  3. Click Find. The System Profiles pop-up window appears with the profile displayed.
  4. In the Site column, enter any value between 1 and 9, inclusive.
  5. In the File menu, select Save and Proceed. The system displays a message that the transaction is complete.
  6. Click OK. The transaction message pop-up disappears.
  7. Close the window.
