R12 Error 'Function Not Available To This Responsibility' When Trying To Access Custom Form

After upgrading from Oracle 11i to R12, users were unable to access custom forms that had previously worked, receiving an error message stating the "Function is not available to this responsibility." The issue was caused by the CUSTOM_TOP variable not being defined in the default.env file under the $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.2/forms/server directory in R12. Defining the CUSTOM_TOP variable to point to the custom forms directory and restarting middle tier services resolved the issue.

R12 Error 'Function not available to this responsibility'


When Trying to Access Custom Form
After upgrade from 11i to R12 users cannot access the custom form in R12, which
was working fine in 11.5.10.2.
Following errors encountered when accessed custom form.
"Function not available to this responsibility. Change Responsibilities or contact
your System Administrator".

The reason for this issue is that, missing entry for CUSTOM_TOP under
default.env file. In R12, CUSTOM_TOP should be defined under default.env in
$INST_TOP/ora/10.1.2/forms/server directory.

Now here is the Solution

1. Login to Linux server with APPLMGR manager user access.

2. Go to $INST_TOP/ora/10.1.2/forms/server directory.

3. Ensure that your CUSTOM_TOP's are registered in the default.env file.

This means , we should create an entry for environment variable CUSTOM_TOP


(which contains physical path to your custom directory) like below in default.env
file present under location .
$INST_TOP/ora/10.1.2/forms/server directory.

For Example:
APPL_TOP=/home/applmgr/PROD/apps/apps_st/appl
CUSTOM_TOP=/home/applmgr/PROD/apps/apps_st/custom

4. Restart the middle tier services.

5. Retest the issue.
