1. FND_PROFILE.GET(Name of the Profile, variable name); Example SELECT fnd_profile.value('PROFILEOPTION') ,fnd_profile.value('MFG_ORGANIZATION_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('ORG_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('LOGIN_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('USER_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('USERNAME') ,fnd_profile.value('CONCURRENT_REQUEST_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('GL_SET_OF_BKS_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('SO_ORGANIZATION_ID') ,fnd_profile.value('APPL_SHRT_NAME') ,fnd_profile.value('RESP_NAME') ,fnd_profile.value('RESP_ID') FROM DUAL;

2. variable name := FND_PROFILE.VALUE(Name of the profile); 3. FND_PROFILE.PUT(Name of the profile, value of the profile);

Example SET SERVEROUTPUT ON; DECLARE v_conc_login_id BEGIN FND_PROFILE.put ('CONC_LOGIN_ID',1425); fnd_profile.get ('CONC_LOGIN_ID', v_conc_login_id); DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (v_conc_login_id); END; Output: 1425 PL/SQL procedure successfully completed NUMBER;

The 1st and 2nd are same but, the only difference is FND_PROFILE.GET is the procedure and FND_PROFILE.VALUE is the function so, it return a value.
