Add PO additional attachments links to approval Notification

Hello,
I have a requirement: when a PO approval notification is sent, I need to add another section in Notification to list URL Links of all po attachmnets. I am not talking about sending attachments in the email. My requirement is on notification itself which is viewed from worklist. When the user clicks on the attachment link, the corresponding PO attachment should open up.
I am not sure how to achieve this, the POAPPRV is customized and we are adding customized header and lines in approval notification. But I am not sure how to add a URL link. Please help.

As far as I know, you don't need OFA extension.
Can you open the workflow in Workflow Developer and verify that the requisition details are populated using the PO_WF_REQ_NOTIFICATION?
Depending on your version, Oracle may be using a different package. Find that package and make some simple change to verify.
Hope this helps

PO attachments in PO approval notification

All, is it possible to display the PO attachments/ their information in the PO approval notification itself?
If so, please tell me where to start.
Thanks.

Hi,
If possible download standard POAPPRV (PO Approval) workflow.
Copy PO Approval Top Process to create
<YourCompany>PO Approval Top Process eg. xxPO Approval Top Process .
Inside the process you can similarly create new custom sub process and packages by copying standard packages and include your custom requirements.
This way you can keep standard code untouched. However in future you need to keep track of those changes for while Patch and Upgrades.
Thanks,

OIM 11g - Email Notification with direct link to Approval Task Details

Hi,
We wanted to send email notifications to approver with direct link to the approval task details screen from which the user can either approve or reject the request. In OIM 11g OOTB Notification templates such as Request Creation contains the direct link to Request Detail screen which is something like
http://localhost:14000/oim/faces/pages/Self.jspx?OP_TYPE=LOOKUP;E_TYPE=MY_REQUEST&T_ID=65
Wondering if there is something similar for Approval Task Details screen as well.
Any kind of help or suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Deepa

If at all you cannot get the direct link for approve/reject then try the actionable email from SOA. Once you have that configured the emails gets approver/reject links so that approvers can directly approve/reject the task from email. If that works for you then you can look at the format of those links in the email and deduce what you need the url as.

OIM 11g: send direct link to approval tasks in email notification

Hi all!
What do I want to achieve: I want to send email notification to assignee in case if some approval task in OIM has assigned to them and this notification must have a direct link to the page of approval task details from which assignee can approve or reject an approval task.
The default email notification that exists in approval task “DefaultRoleApproval” has a direct link to a request details page:
<a href="<%substring-before(/task:task/task:payload/task:url , "/workflowservice/CallbackService")%">/oim/faces/pages/Self.jspx?OP_TYPE=LOOKUP&E_TYPE=MY_REQUEST&T_ID=<%/task:task/task:payload/task:RequestID%>>
But unfortunately from this page we can’t do any action such as reject or approve.
To find a direct link to an approval task details page (Self Service -> Tasks -> Task Details: Approval) from which I can perform needed operation I used document ID 748447.1. But I haven’t found a direct link.
What is the direct link to task details page for approval with exact ID which I can include in an email to satisfy my requirement?
Thanks in advance!</a>

MHKIM:Invoice Approval Notification에 View Invoice Link가 보여지지 않는 현상

Q:Invoice 등록후 Workflow를 통해서 Invoice Approval Notification이 발송되는데
일부 사용자가 Notification내용중 View Invoice Link가 보여지지 않는 현상이 발생했습니다.
A:
View Invoice Link를 보기 위해서는
Payables data에 대한 access가 가능해야하고,
View Invoice Overview(AP_APXIWALL_VIEW) function이 AP권한에 attach되어야 합니다.
다시말해 승인 notification에서 View Invoice link를 눌렀을때, 해당 내용을 볼 수 있는 menu를 가지고 있어야 합니다.
문제가 되시는 분은 "AP_건강생활_일반담당"이라는 권한을 가지고 계신데,
그 권한의 data group은 Payables가 아닌 Asia/Pacific Localization이고,
View Invoice Overview function도 Menu에 없는 것으로 보입니다.
"AP_건강생활_일반담당" 권한에 등록된 Menu에
View Invoice Overview(AP_APXIWALL_VIEW) function이 들어가 있는지 확인해주시고,
만약 없다면, View Invoice Overview(AP_APXIWALL_VIEW) function을 추가 후,
신규 Invoice에 대해서 Notification확인을 부탁드립니다.

Remove approve reject link in the notification

Hi,
I want to remove the approve and reject link in the notification. I only want the users to log on and approve and reject. The email has to be HTML mail. How do you hide or remove the approve and reject link ONLY for my wf notifications and not for everyone else's.
Thanks any help would be appreciated!

Hi,
You cannot change the functionality for only one notification or process. If you want to send summary emails, then you need to set either the global preference or the user preferences. This impacts all notifications in the system for that particular user.
There is no other way to remove the links from an email, but leave them in the notification.

How to include attachments to the standard PO approval notifications attachments.zip file?

Hi,
Oracle EBS 12.0.6 and 12.1.3
Following the ML Note Adding an Attachments Table Using Personalization [ID 790344.1], I have added an attachments table to the PO Supplier Change Request page. I am able to upload attachments and can see them in the tables. How can I include these attachments in the workflow notifications? When the notifications are received, PO pdf is attached and an attachments.zip file is included with other attachments but not the ones that I have uploaded using the new attachments table.
To find how Oracle is able to attach files to a single zip file, I searched for "ZIP_ATTACHMENT" keyword in dba_source table and found it is being done in the APPS.PO_COMMUNICATION_PVT.GENERATE_PDF_BUYER package procedure. Do I have to modify this procedure or is there a less invasive way, which is upgrade proof too?
Thanks.

Hi,
In your report footer, set it to create a new page before it is printed (In 'Section Expert', select the Report Footer -> 'Paging' tab -> Check 'New Page Before' checkbox). Throw your Terms & Conditions into the Report Footer section.
If you already have a Report Footer that you want to keep, just split the footer into two sections (Right-click the Report Footer section -> 'Insert Section Below') and follow the same procedure for the newly created section.

How to add an additional email account in Mail?

Hi,
I set up my main 'Hotmail' email address in 'Mail' about a year ago but have never used the Mail App since. I now have a 2nd email address (university) and it is hosted through 'Exchange Labs' which is basically Hotmail/MSN I think. I cannot check my emails in each one without logging out and logging in whilst openinging and closing several web pages which is a nuisance.
I was told I could link these 2 accounts in Mail and would make life easier. However, I went to add an additional account and it's asking me for the server info - (mail.server.com) which I have no idea what Exchange Labs use. I looked at my settings for my Hotmail address and when I was setting it up I used my 'izymail' subscription to make it work. However when I go into Mail, it shows no new emails, or any of my old ones. I think i'll have to play around with it for a few hours before I figure out what's wrong but can anyone offer any advice?
How to link an 'Exchange Lab' email account or make sure my existing hotmail account is still linked properly?
Thanks in advance!

Unless Hotmail is required under EU law to provide their full service free of charge, you'd have to have a paid Hotmail account to be able to send and receive email with Mail.
As for the Exchange Labs, that's something your university is doing, so you'd need to call their student computing helpdesk for the settings to enter in Mail to setup your account for that. You can't link these two accounts, but you can have Mail send and receive messages through both accounts individually, assuming you meet the requirements and have them setup properly. It's not hard, you just need to get the necessary info from your university IT department, as well as have POP access to your Hotmail account, which they do charge for in the U.S.

Deleted PO Approval Notification Accidently, now cant approve Draft. (2007)

My Customer accidently deleted an approval notification. The PO displayes in the Document Drafts report, but when the user drills down into the draft to add it, they get a message: "An authorization for this document has allready been sent. Document can not be added unless this authorization process is completed."
I have two users who can approve this documet, with a required segnature of 1 user.
Any suggestions?
thanks

How? That was my question. How do you get an approval message back after your accidently deleted it.
The answer below helped. I wasnt awar the entering user could go into the Send portion of the Message / Alert overview window, and re-send the message.
Thank you for your response, and taking the time to help!
Sincere regards,
Mike

Modify PO approval notification

All,
I need to add some extra information to the PO approval notification.
I have downloaded the PO Approval item but I am not sure which
process/ message I should change.
Can you please tell me how to find out what needs to be changed or
where I should make changes in the workflow?
Thanks.
Edited by: 973508 on Apr 17, 2013 4:21 PM

I have identified the message as "PO Approve".
I have added a new attribute called "Requisition Number" to "PO Approval Process" and used it
in "Approve PO" message. I have also modified the procedure PO_POAPPROVAL_INIT1.SetPOHdrAttributes
to retrieve the requisition number of a PO and setting the attribute of "Requisition Number" with it.
Then, in the Approve PO message body I have added "Requisition Number: &REQUISITION_NUMBER" in workflow
builder and saved it in to the target database.
But, the approval workflow notification message is not picking my requisition number.
I am not sure how to actually modify the message of the notification to use the
newly added Requisition number attribute in it.
Can any please give me some direction here?
Thanks.

Customize PO Approval Notification OA page

Hi
I am trying to customize PO Approval Notification. I want to add more attributes to the &PO_LINE_DETAILS. how to do it. presently. I made change in the workflow but it doesnt reflect on the page.
Purchase Order Lines
Line Item Number Rev. Item Description UOM Quantity Unit Price Line Amount
Want to add Cost center, Promised date columns to this table.
Please let me know how to do it.

Find the PO OAF embedded region in the notification. Then you need to personalize that region and add your required columns assuming the attached VO has those values. Otherwise you might have to do VO substitution also.

PO Approval Notification to multiple users

Dear All,
Currently in our setup PO approval notification is working fine.
I want to send the final approval notification to other audience who are not there in workflow hierarchy.
can anyone guide on this?
Regards
Deepali

I assume you want to send an FYI notification.
You can either customize the po workflow to add the fYI notification or you can write an alert that fires when a PO is approved.
Hope this helps,
