To create an independent value type:When creating a value set, you must specify a validation type. If you select the validation type "Independent", then you must define the independent values that comprise the value set.
Creating an independent value is part of the process of creating a value set. Before creating an independent value, you must create a value set. See: Defining Value Sets for User-Defined Attributes.
When you initially install or upgrade to Release 12.2.2 or later, no users are allowed to view, insert or update any value set values. You must explicitly set up access for specific users by enabling appropriate grants and roles for those users. For more information about setting up access, refer to Flexfield Value Set Security, Oracle E-Business Suite Flexfields Guide.
