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

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.
