Alert Manager HTML Email Query

Hi,
Is it possible to send an email in HTML format using Alert Manager as I would like to send a URL as part of the text.
Thx in Advance.
Best Regards
Ramdas

Hi Pillair,
Thx for your response.
This has to be configured by a functional person rather than a technical person.
Hence I wanted to know if it is possible to send HTLML mails through the Alert Manager.

Alert Manager

Hi all,
Good day...
Has anyone created an alert through alert manager responsibility to get alerts if new user and new responsbility added to the user?? How do i do this?
Please suggest...
Thanks,
baskar.l

Alerts work by identifying when a row in a table is updated or created. So all you need to do is create an alert based on the appropriate FND_RESP table. Your query should pick up the columns you need and then place them into variables which can then be used in an email.
If you go onto the alert manager responsibility and query the seeded alerts, you will see some examples which are very close to the one you want to develop.
Hope that helps.

Alert Management

Dear All,
Please guide on Alert Management
We created query for alert and we set alert frequency as every 1 Minute to popup alert immediately. But alert get popup on every minute in users Messages/alert window on respective day.
I have set update messages (Min) = 1 in Generatl setting - > Services.
Query
select
     OI.Series as 'Series',
     OI.docnum as 'Incoming Excise Invoice Number',
     OI.docdate as 'Doc Date',
     OI.taxdate as 'Document Date',
     OI.cardcode as 'Card Code',
     OI.cardname as 'Card Name',
     OI.doctotal as 'Amount',
     OI.comments as 'Remark',
     OI.createDate as 'Date',
     OI.numatcard as 'Excise Ref. No'
from oinv OI
where   convert(varchar,OI.createDate,103) = CONVERT(varchar,getdate(), 103)
I want to fire this alert only once.
Is any setting we missed out?
Regards
Mahendra

I am afraid your query will make your alert table growing like a monster.
Your intension of just one alert for one new invoice to be checked every minute is understandable. However, there is no easy logic to achieve what you need. You will quickly find out, the alert will be fired as soon as the first invoice on the current day and every minute from then on.
Thanks,

Converting Query results into HTML email

Hi,
I am using oracle 11g. I' m using the following procedure to send out html emails from a static query in the procedure and it works fine. I wanted to make it dynamic and pass the sql query as a parameter to procedure and build the html tags based on the query. Any thoughts?
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE html_sql_results
is
 v_rows clob;
 v_header clob;
 cursor v_cursor is
 select SR_NO,STATE,DUE_DT,PROCESS_DT,STATUS,DAY_NO,SEQ_NO
 from T_TABLE;
 BEGIN
 v_header := '<table border=1>
 <tr style=''background:#8DB3E2''>
 <td>SR_NO</td>
 <td>STATE</td>
 <td>DUE_DT</td>
 <td>PROCESS_DT</td>
 <td>STATUS</td>
 <td>DAY_NO</td>
 <td>SEQ_NO</td>
 </tr>';
 v_rows := Null;
 FOR i in v_cursor
 LOOP
 v_rows := v_rows ||
 '<tr>
 <td> ' || I.SR_NO||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.STATE||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.DUE_DT ||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.PROCESS_DT ||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.STATUS||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.DAY_NO ||'</td>
 <td> ' || I.SEQ_NO||'</td>

 END LOOP;
 if v_rows is not null then
 v_rows:= v_header ||v_rows ||' </table> ' ;
 dbms_output.put_line(v_rows);

Alert Manager Validation for sending Email

Hi All,
I am planning to use Alert Manager for sending out email in case if there is any locks in the database. I am not able to find a way to send a mail only when there is a lock in the database.
Is there any way to do a validation on Oracle Alert manager before sending the mail ?

Understanding how BB manage HTML in emails and attacchments.

Hi all,
I'm trying to understand how BB manage HTML in emails and in attachments.
I created a simple HTML table with some color and no particular complications.
If I send this table as a HTML email on my BB it will be showed correctly, with all color and attribute shown.
If I package this html code into a file named try.html and than I send it as an email attachments on my BB I lost many attribute, including colors.
Can you explain me why and eventually how to solve this problem?
Thanks.

I too am somewhat annoyed by the manner in which messages are displayed using the standard e-mail inboxes. I recently started using the Gmail application for my personal e-mail and am very happy with how cleanly messages are displayed. I hope I can find a similar application to handle my other addresses, because it is very difficult to scroll through a large volume of mail that contains HTML and URLs every day.
If anyone knows of an application that more cleanly displays messages, please do tell. Otherwise, I'm going to be doing a bit of research this evening to see what I can find. I'll post back with my findings.

OK forget about my earlier post.
do the following changes.
declare the following variables:
data: xtext type standard table of solix .
DATA: atta_sub TYPE sood-objdes .
after the call of FM SCMS_STRING_TO_FTEXT add the following code.
CALL FUNCTION 'SO_SOLITAB_TO_SOLIXTAB'
EXPORTING
    ip_solitab        = text
IMPORTING
   EP_SOLIXTAB       = xtext .
and after the following statement
document = cl_document_bcs=>create_document(
                          i_type    = 'HTM'
                          i_text    = text
                          i_length = conlengths
                          i_subject = subject ).
add the following code
CALL METHOD document->add_attachment
            EXPORTING
              i_attachment_type    = 'htm'
              i_attachment_subject = atta_sub
              i_att_content_hex    = xtext.
now you will have results both in the body as well as attachment. (this is for test you can remove one of them )

When I forward an HTML email with embedded graphics to someone, it forwards it as plain text.. this is driving me batty.. how do I forward such mails INTACT??

I have the latest Thunderbird installed on a new 64-bit Winblows Eight netbook.. fantastic program, but one problem is driving me absolutely batty, and after using the latest Thunderbird for weeks, I simply can't figure out how to fix it..
I'm on a lot of mfr. and other kinds of mailing lists, like eBay watch list alerts, and so on.. these are not s p a m (although I get plenty of that.. who doesn't).. but lists I WANT to be on..
Many such emails from those mailing lists are in HTML format with embedded graphics.. I'm not talking about graphic file attachments, but embedded graphics which are coming from the senders' servers, and appear AS a graphic in the email.. sometimes such emails are one huge graphic with hardly any text.. all well and good..
However, here's the problem.. when I want to forward such an email to a friend, Thunderbird ALWAYS formats it as plain ASCII text.. I know this because I look in the "sent mail" folder, and can see that it has turned an HTML email with embedded graphics into plain ASCII text..
I absolutely can't figure out how to get it to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT, so the sender receives it looking the way it looks when I receive it from a mailing list, or an advertiser, or eBay, or whoever..
Is Thunderbird capable of forwarding an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT?.. If so, how / where do I turn on that capability?..
If the capability to do this isn't built into the program, is there an add-on I can install that will give it that ability?..
I am not new to computers.. but this really has me stumped.. I want to put Thunderbird on my 32-bit Vista laptop and stop using its horrible "Windoze Mail" program, which I've been using for years, and is slower than snot, and has all kinds of other problems..
So, assuming whoever reads this FULLY understands my question, PLEASE tell me how to get Thunderbird to have the ability to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics AS-IS, so the receiver(s) I forward it to see it exactly the way I see it when I receive it.. if that ability is built in, please tell me how to turn it on.. if that ability is not built-in, please tell me what add-on I need to install to give Thunderbird this capability.. if Thunderbird absolutely can't forward an HTML email with embedded graphics at all, please also tell me that..
A virtual box of candy and a dozen long-stemmed roses to anyone who can give me a solution that works..
Thanks..

Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
Thanks again..
Harv..

How to send html email notification in bpel

hi gurus,
i want to send html email notification from bpel.
before, i already successful send html email with attachment, but when i send an email without attachment, then the body message will turn into a plain text.
as i check from the email accepted, email with attachment will have a mime type "text/html" but if no attachment then it will be "text/plain"
from the bpel configuration, by default the mime type already set to "text/html; charset=UTF-8", below is the sample configuration in my bpel process
[quote]
<copy>
 <from>string('text/html; charset=UTF-8')</from>
 <to variable="varNotificationReq"
 part="EmailPayload">
 <query>ns10:Content/ns10:MimeType</query>
 </to>
 </copy>
[/quote]
i think this suppose to be a easy configuration, but i'm not sure whether i miss something in configuration the email process or this is a bugs in bpel.
environment:
linux
jdev 11.1.1.6

make sure you put the mime type multipart/alternative into the email payload content. by default, when you add attachment, it will generate mime type multipart mixed automatically.
if you don't change it to multipart/alternative, your email will show a attachment, but actually your email doesn't contain any attachment.
and then for the message and mimetype make sure you have that ns10:bodypart, because this email already been set as a multipart email.
when you add attachment, by default it will generate 2 body part, first one is for the body message and the second one is for the attachment. since i only want to use the body message only, then i have to erase the second bodypart
with this workaround, i can send a html email without attachment perfectly.
but i have to take note, when i updating the email process from process design, then the source will be generated again automatically, and the edited one will be replaced.
thanks.

Make sure you upload all of the images used in your email to a server you control. Then, change your image paths to point to those uploaded images with absolute links.
You will get marked as spam if you attempt to send images as attachments to a large list of recipients and most email clients won't download images to begin with, so make sure your html email makes sense with broken pictures.
CSS support is spotty across email clients, if you use css, make sure it's inline, not embedded in the <head> or externally linked in the <head>. Some email clients strip out the <head> section entirely.
Basically, you need to design your html email as if you haven't moved out of the 90's yet, as far as web design is concerned, in order to get maximum cross client compatibility.
Then, when you're ready, I would suggest using a service like www.icontact.com or www.constantcontact.com if your subscriber list is anywhere over 100 or so recipients.

I've found the workflow administration screen and theres a section which says :
Business Event Local System
Enter the Workflow Business Event System Name and System Processing Status.

How to use/import CM Tags in html email templates?

Hi guys
I would like to start designing html email templates and send mailings for my clients. Can anyone tell me how I can easily insert CM tags so that the template will be easily adapted to the content of the certain email in the email manager like Campagin Monitor?
Thanks!
Bob

Hi Nancy O.
I would like to design my own templates and instantly insert the right tags and so, so that I can import the templates to websites like Campaign Monitor and my clients can open templates when sending new mailsings.
The goal is to have my own designed templates for my clients with their layouts which they can use for their mailings. Also extending the newsletter (adding new article fields) should be possible etc.
Can you tell me what codes I need and what I should pay attention to in order to design nice templates that will appear correctly in nearly each mailbox?
Thanks in advance!
Bob

How to view all pages of a multi-page HTML email in Mac Mail 5+ (Lion to Mavericks)?

In previous versions of Mac Mail (up to that included with Snow Leopard, Mail 4), it was possible to scroll through all pages of a multi-page HTML email, like that send from the Tivoli Storage Manager reporting system.
Since Lion, that has not been possible. The first page displays, but that's it.
As a possible complication, I'm accessing an Exchange server, not IMAP.
I have not been able to find a setting that might be related to this, nor have I found anyone who seems to be perturbed by this issue. Perhaps there's very few of us trying to read multi-page Tivoli reports on a Mac.
In any case, I would prefer not to switch to a different mail app, or sign on to the Outlook Web Service version of our email to see the full report.
Any thoughts?

I've been able to find someone willing to do some testing that I can't do without installing old versions of Reader on my computer. The surprising (to me) result is that the Submit button causes the problem. By simply removing the Submit button, Reader 10 is now able to print page 1. The Submit button was set up to do a "mailto". I don't know whether other destinations also cause the problem of the page not printing with old versions of Reader.
