Reg emailing the output of a concurrent program as an attachment

Hi,
Our requirement is to email the output of a concurrent program?(SQL*PLUS Report Output) as an attachment to the supplied Email Id, without using seperate Shell Script.
We have configured a printer and passed the Printer Driver argument as
uuencode $PROFILES$.FILENAME Budget_Report.csv | /bin/mailx -"Cisco AS Budget Report" $Email_id
The Problem is we are passing the Email address directly to the command.Can't we use the Parameter value to that command?
And also a junk character 'end gets displayed in the mail body.
Sometimes the concurrent Program ends with warning message as
APP-FND-00500 : AFPPRN received a return code of failure from routine FDUPRN.
An error occured while AOL tried to spawn the print process.
Please suggest some ways on getting proper output?
Thanks.

Hi,
Email address can be Profile Option - create a new profile option, set value and reference like the $PROFILES$.FILENAME.
For logging pipe standard out and error to a logfile. Note I haven't tested the command below, just to give you an idea. Would be better to create a shell script then you can change without having to go to the Printer Drivers and bounce Conc Mgr.
Ie. if you profile option is XX_EMAIL_ADDRESS then
uuencode $PROFILES$.FILENAME Budget_Report.csv | /bin/mailx -"Cisco AS Budget Report" $PROFILES$.FILENAME >/mypath/myfile 2>&1
With regards to the failure, if your uuencode or mailx returns 1 (ie, can't find file or whatever) then your print job fails. This is why you should either log or create shell script to handle the error better.
Regards,
Gareth

How to save the output of a concurrent proram automatically

Hi Friends,
We have a requirement to save the output of a concurrent program to a specific folder for a reporting purpose. whenever we run that concurrent program it should save the out file in the network folder \\out_files\con_prg like that
instead of storing it in its default folder in unix.(or I should recoganize which out file is for my concurrent program from the default folder and to move it to windows shared network folder). If it is one time , I can do it manually. But I need to schedule that concurrent program to run every day and transfer the output to the windows folder.
Our system is Oracle Apps 11i , Data base 9i in Solaris.
If you have any idea or sugesstion for this , please share it with me here.
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Thanks for the reply. I can get the name from the fnd_concurrent_requests table, But how can I identify which is the one submitted by me. Because there is possibility of multiple submission by the users with different parameters.
I can give you more details.
We are having a BI report (not oracle) for AR Aging Report details. It has a staging table to get the data from Oracle EBS.
My job is to run Our Customized AR Aging Report with 2 different parameters like sysdate and the same date for last month.
Get the output file and processs it (for this we are using VB Script) to populate the staging table from where the BI report get the data.
So far I am doing this manually for more than a month.
The Users wants to have all the above mentioned process to be combined as a single concurrent program , so that they can submit easily and populate the data any time of the day like other Oracle Standard reports.
The BI report can be viewed any time of the day by more than 15 users and also AR Aging report can be run so many times in a day by another set of users.
In this situation how can I get the exact output file of the request submitted by me.
Thanks,
Vimal...

How to capture the parameter value of Concurrent Program submited

Hi,
I would like to capture the Parameter value of Concurrent Program submitted through Submit Request screen based on that i want to return value.
When Conc prog "Payroll Run" along with parameter like "Pay Period" which has LOV attached to it, which has one coulumn named "End Date", this value selected needs to be captured. Can you please tell the Table name where the value is stored or Captured.
I want this value to be used in Fast Formula which will return the desired value to Input Value.
Actually in one of the Element I have Input Value as "Monthly Days" which should be populated with the "Number of days" in the period in which Payroll is being processed.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
fnd_concurrent_requests.argument_text stores the argument values in comma separated form. But check the prior response from thierry first - fnd_concurrent _requests is not the place you want to be getting things from as it can be purged and so you source data is gone!

How to find the patches for perticular concurrent program

HI

Thank's

Query the concurrent program in Sysadmin responsibility.
Note the concurrent executable.
Query the concurrent executable in Sysadmin.
Note the file name.
If it is a package, open the package in TOAD and note down the file name.
If it is a report/form, open it in form developer and note down the file name.
Go to patch find screen in metalink. In the advanced search screen, enter the file name and you will see patches that contain it.
Hope this answers your question

Reg: Creating sub menu for a concurrent program under menu on the Menu bar

Hi all,
I would like to know, how we can create a sub menu for a conc. program under a sub menu on the Menu Bar ?
Thanks In Advance.
Regards,
Neeti

It is a 2 step process. First, enable a new menu entry, which when called will fire a user-named trigger, where the call to the concurrent programs form is the executed. How to do it depends on the release. Previous to 11.5.10, this has to be done trough custom.pll, and 11i10 an r12 with forms personalization. Documentation and examples exists for both cases, have a look on metalink.

XML output for pdf concurrent program

Hi,
We have one custom concurrent program defined with output as pdf.
We want to generate an xml output some times. We dont want to register another concurrent program.
We want to use same concurrent program, but want to generate output some times pdf , some times xml.
Please suggest whether any possible way of doing this even using CONCSUB also fine.
Thank you,
Venkat.

Hi Ramana;
We want to submit the concurrent program, but output type either as xml or pdf it will be known during runtime.AFAIK if you prepare template in XML publisher than you can take output as pdf, by the way you can take xml output too
Please check user guide:

Problem while running the xml report in concurrent program

Hi,
In EBS r12, we have requirement to have a standard report output in excel.
I got the report's xml output to create the xml template (.RTF layout) using BI Publisher.
I created the .RTF layout and it works fine on my laptop using Bi Publisher.. the xml loads into it and i can preview xml data on layout with all format (Excel, PDF...)
I uploaded the layout to EBS, and assigned it to the standard report.
I changed standard report out put to XML
When i go to submit report request, the template is assigned with report and everything seems correct.
But after i run the report.
The report is Completed with Warning status.. and output is only XML with Error message :
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
The Log file says :
Executing request completion options...
------------- 1) PUBLISH -------------

I guess we should submit XML publisher request "XDOREPPB" in "After report trigger" to generate the report output. You can refer the below link for syntax for submission of the program.

This may be helpful if not please ignore it.

Pratap,
Please download the cpcontext files whose package structure is oracle.apps.fnd.cp.request.CpContext
from the google or other search sites or download it from application unix server $JAVA_TOP/oracle/apps/fnd/cp/request/CPContext .
If it is a class file then convert it to java file by using java decompiler.

the package structure is oracle.apps.fnd.cp.webui the create folders in myproject folder in jdeveloper
oracle, then under oracle folder cretae aapps folder and so on...

How to identify the arguments of a concurrent program?

Hi,
I am new to 11i.
I need to submit a concurrent request using fnd_request.submit_request.
I was wondering if there is documentation specifying the list of arguments for each concurrent program.
In this case I need the arguments for INCOIN, but it would be great if someone can point me to a doc listing all the conc programs or atleast the fnd_ table which might be storing this map (I might be horribly mistaken here) .
Thanks,
Vinay
I figured out that
fnd_concurrent_programs, fnd_concurrent_programs_tl, fnd_executables, fnd_application, fnd_application_tl
these tables can give some info about the program but not the arguments

check this tables FND_DESCR_FLEX_COLUMN_USAGES.
descriptive_flexfield_name is $SRS$.[fnd_concurrent_programs.concurrent_program_name]

Email the Output of Report under HTML Format instead of .eps

Hi to all
I having Developer 6.0.5.0.2. I want to send an email from
report (Using Lotus Notes email client) as an HTML attachment.
Could any one guide me how to do that?
null

Set DESFORMAT = HTML in the Parameter Form Builder.(or in the
system Parameters under Data Model)
the DESTYPE should be MAIL only then you won't get the .eps file.
Hope this helps.

Track the Output printed in Z Programe

Hi All,
I have done the Z program for for Loading sheet print, Is it possible to track weather document is printed or not in SAP. need to assume viewing print preview is not printed.

pramod

Hi Pramod,
NAST protocol uses functions in function group WMCP:
NAST_PROTOCOL_DELETE
NAST_PROTOCOL_INITIALIZE
NAST_PROTOCOL_INIT_AND_LOAD
NAST_PROTOCOL_STORE
NAST_PROTOCOL_UPDATE
They are used in a lot of print programs, for example in invoices program RVADIN01.
For initialize is used the function NAST_PROTOCOL_INITIALIZE, an register in table NAST is created, then you call the funtion NAST_PROTOCOL_UPDATE to add message to the log and finally NAST_PROTOCOL_STORE to save it. Take a look to program RSNAST00.

How to Email Output of Concurrent Program to set of Users

Hi Everyone,
I need to create a Custom concurrent program(Nothing but a PLSQL Program) to email the output of a concurrent program run to a set of users with request id as parameter.
Please help me...!
With Regards
VeeJay

Do not know Apps - and still have no idea what is implied with a "concurrent" program. Wish that systems/applications will use technology words correctly and appropriately...
Also, you have not stated what the output is. Is is a text file? A CLOB? A ref cursor? A PL/SQL array? A 32KB varchar2? Something else?
This output needs to be used to construct the e-mail.
In order to mail anything you (the e-mail client) need:
a) TCP client connectivity
b) to construct a Mime (e-mail) body
c) deliver that Mime body via TCP using the SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
In Oracle 10.2.x that is as simple as making a single PL/SQL, courtesy of the UTL_MAIL package.
In Oracle 9i and 10.1.x, that requires manually constructing a Mime body and then delivering it using the UTL_SMTP package.
In Oracle 8i, that means using UTL_TCP if UTL_SMTP is not available.
You need to consult the applicable documentation for that Oracle version. The document being "Supplied PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference" with Oracle 8i and 9i, and simply "PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference" with 10G and later.
Documentation portal URL is http://tahiti.oracle.com
