select SERVICE_ID,NAME from dba_services;

login to the PDB of APPS 

show pdbs;

show con_name;

Alter session set container=APPS_DB_PDB_NAME;

SQL> exec dbms_service.start_service(service_name=>'ebs_ERPTEST');

 

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

now start the APPS Tier services.

If you are not sure about the APPS Service, check the alert log and grep with ":Started" and start the service with the above procedure.
