OAF:Important profile options used in OAFramework

1. Personalize Self-Service Defn / FND_CUSTOM_OA_DEFINTION
This is intended for system administrators who wish to personalize regions at the localization, site, verticalization, org and responsibility levels. On enabling this profile option for the administrator, every OA Framework page will contain a global Personalize button. By clicking on this global button, the administrator can personalize the regions available on that page.
2. Disable Self-service Personal / FND_DISABLE_OA_CUSTOMIZATIONS
This is a system profile option specifically created for use by Oracle Support. You can set this profile option to "Yes" or "No" at the site or application level. If this system profile option is set to Yes, any personalizations made by the customer, regardless of the level at which the personalizations were made, will not be applied. All pages using OA Framework will now display the regions based on their original definitions.
Note: When this profile is set to "Yes", a warning message that all personalizations are disabled is displayed on every page to which a user navigates.
3. FND: Personalization Region Link Enabled / FND_PERSONALIZATION_REGION_LINK_ENABLED
Enables the "Personalize Region" links on a page if the Personalize Self-Service Defn / FND_CUSTOM_OA_DEFINTION profile is set to Yes.
4. Fnd Xliff Export Root Path / FND_XLIFF_EXPORT_ROOT_PATH
Use this profile option to set the root path used to generate the full path where the Xliff files are exported to when users extract their translated personalizations using the Extract Translation Files page in OA Personalization Framework. The permissions for the root path directory that you specify must be set to read, write, create for all users, using chmod 777 [dir_path].
5. Xliff Import Root Path / FND_XLIFF_IMPORT_ROOT_PATH
Use this profile option to set the root path used to derive the full path from where the Xliff files are uploaded when users use the Upload Translations page in OA Personalization Framework to upload translated personalizations.
6. FND: Personalization Document Root Path / FND_PERZ_DOC_ROOT_PATH
Use this profile option to define the root path where personalizations documents are exported to or imported from when users use the Database page or the File System page of the Functional Administrator responsibility's Document Manager, respectively.

Recommended this profile set to the $APPL_TOP staging area: $APP_TOP// / /mds/webui
of the current deployed environment, where personalization documents are to be imported from or
exported to. This profile option should be set at the Site level.

7.FND: Diagnostics / FND_DIAGNOSTICS
Setting this to “Yes” causes a Diagnostics global button to render on every page. Select this button to view the log messages for the page. Enabling this profile also automatically renders the "About this page" link at the bottom of every OA Framework page.
