Check Writer

Hi all,
I am trying to run full payroll for a single employee. I made an assignment set and ran PAYROLL PROCESS, PRE-PAYMENTS, PAYROLL ARCHIVE(everything went well). Now when I run CHECK WRITER and give the assignment set as one of the parameter, it doesn't pick up the assignment and CHECK WRITER finishes without processing any assignment but if I dont give any assignment set, then it processes the assignment that I want to be processed but also other assignments that I dont want to be processed.
Anyone knows why this is happening?
QUICK help would be appreciated.
Thanks
OB

Its look like your assignment set may not have setup correctly. Do create a new assignment set , use amendments and Include this person in the assignment set.
Remember to Generate and Save the changes. If you can verify, please check at table level number of members for the assignment set.
Retry the check writer process with new assignment set.

Issue with Adobe Acrobat 9 and check writer

My user is having the following issue when running check writer.
I am having an issue when I try and print the Oracle checks. They run fine, but when I click on the view output which usually brings up a pdf screen of my check. Instead gives me 2 blank screens with a question mark icon.
I noticed that Adobe Acrobat 9 was installed the same day I started having the isssue.
Has anyone else had this problem or know if Oracle HRMS R12 is not compatible with Adobe Acrobat 9?
Thanks!

Check writer for HR PAYROLL

Can any one clarify that check writer and check writer(xml) concurrent programs that are used for payroll check printing are same? if not when should we use check writer and when should we use check writer(XML)? (why i am asking these because concurrent program short name which is the code for data definition and template are not same,but the data definition name( Check Writer XML) is same for template(Check Writer for US))
To Enable check writer(XML) i gone through some setups in oracle support should that be performed to use check writer(XML) instead of check writer? and finally to customize my check template where can i get the XML DATA ? Any replies will be appreciated thanks in advance.

There are several documents on Metalink that provide the steps necessary for using CheckWriter(XML). Basically, the CheckWriter and the CheckWriter(XML) programs are the same however the XML program runs through the Oracle provided data definitiion and xml template to produce the PDF output.
When you run the Check Writer (XML) program you will find two programs in the Concurrent Request window. The PDF output from the template will generate from the 1st program and the XML data that is used to generate is found in the 2nd program. You can copy the seeded Oracle XML check template and rework it to fit your organizations requirements.

MICR font not displayed in PDF on SUSE Linux Server for Check Writer (XML)

We are generating checks by running the Check Writer(XML) concurrent request and are not able to see MICR fonts on the Check. We downloaded the free version from IDAutomationSMICR.ttf and the fonts were registered under /usr/local/fonts/micr directory. I registered in APPS and uploaded the file IDAutomationSMICR.ttf. Am I missing any steps. The DBA's have registered the fonts under /usr/local/fonts/micr on SUSE Linux Server . The custom Checks are generated but no luck with the fonts. Please advise. Can I download MICR fonts other than IDAutomation site? Appreciate your response.
Thanks,
Hari

I use version 11i, so the steps are probably different. Download a font file (gnuMICR for me). Extract it to a location of your choice on your operating system.
Follow these steps to load the MICR font to the server. (Step 11 was missing in some of the metalink documents in late 2007. I think Jan. 2008 will be OK).
1.     Log in as XML Publisher Administrator.
2.     Navigate to Administration->Font Files->Create Font File.
3.     Fields are Font Name and File. For Font Name choose any descriptive name. File will browse your PC to locate the font file.
4.     Navigate to Font Mappings->Create Font Mapping Set.
5.     Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts. [MICR Font]
6.     Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set. [MICR]
7.     Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
8.     Create Font Mapping (this allows you to add multiple fonts to a set).
9.     Font Family is the exact same name you see in Word under Fonts. If you don't use the same name the font will not be picked up at runtime. [GnuMICR]
10.     Style and weight must also match how you use the font in Windows. Normal and Normal are good defaults. [Normal, Normal]
11.     DO NOT enter Language or Territory
12.     Choose a value for Font Type. [Truetype]
13.     Search for the Font you just created in step 3. [GnuMICR]
14.     Navigate to Configuration -> FO Processing -> Font Mapping Set. Can also be done at data def and template level under Edit Configuration. Hierarchy is Site-> Data Def -> Template.
15.     Select your new mapping set.
16.     Make sure the font is not referenced under File->Properties->Custom in the RTF template file.
17.     Select a temporary directory on your concurrent processing node (Configuration -> General). This needs to be a private area not shared by other processes, read writeable by the applmgr (owner of the $APPL_TOP file system). It should be fairly large 5 GB or 20x larger than any datafile being used. The fonts will be downloaded here the first time they are used.
18.     Also at this site level select your font mapping set.
19.     Upload a template that uses your special font and test using preview.

Do you have the data field in the templae set right?
Attach the template here if you can after taking out any sensitive company information you might have on it.

Check writer process (PAYROLL) really slow

Hi All
Does anyone have any tips on speeding up the check writer process. I have already used and applied the CBO document for HRMS. I am looking for more tips to speed up the check writer process. It now takes 11 hrs to process 50,000 employee checks.
Thanks
Eddie Lufker

You just need to change the output type of the concerned concurrent program to XML.

Segments in Check Writer XML data source

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what are the Segments 1-10 in the XML data source that I see for Check Writer (XML) when I use "Third Party Checks". I tried populating few fields in the Entry values for the corresponding element but that didn't work.
We need an additional field to populate some reference number that needs to be printed on the check and we would like to use one of these segments since it eliminates the customization.
- <EMPLOYEE_THIRD_PARTY_PAYMENTS>
<ORG_PAYMENT_METHOD_ID>63</ORG_PAYMENT_METHOD_ID>
<PERSONAL_PAYMENT_METHOD_ID>103704</PERSONAL_PAYMENT_METHOD_ID>
<CHECK_DEPOSIT_NUMBER>166986</CHECK_DEPOSIT_NUMBER>
<SEGMENT1 />
<SEGMENT2 />
<SEGMENT3 />
<SEGMENT4 />
<SEGMENT5 />
<SEGMENT6 />
<SEGMENT7 />
<SEGMENT8 />
<SEGMENT9 />
<SEGMENT10 />
<PRE_PAYMENT_ID>4077062</PRE_PAYMENT_ID>
<VALUE>151</VALUE>
<PREPAYMENT_ASSIGNMENT_ACTION>1363042534</PREPAYMENT_ASSIGNMENT_ACTION>

Ok..found it. Those are the bank details.

Where are these queries located now? Any help is appreaciated.

Check Writer is failed with HR_6990_HRPROC_CHQ_SRW2_FAILED

Failed with
HR_6990_HRPROC_CHQ_SRW2_FAILED
APP-PAY-06990: Report Writer report failed with an error
Cause: The report failed to complete and returned an error condition.
Action: Check the report logfile in PAY_TOP/APPLOUT/xx.lg for reason for the failure.
I don't see anything in $PAY_TOP/APPLOUT, it is all empty files. all of the worker processes completed except one worker process failed.
i would like to restart the check writer. do i need to rollback the "check writer" alone before i restart the "Check Writer" ?

Check Writer XML - Check count different between XML and PDF

Hello all, Check writer XML ends in a warning. Hence the user can't see the output. I go to the server and grab both the .XML and the .PDF files. The PDF file as 93 checks but the actual .XML file has 112 checks. Hence the warning. Did anyone experience the same problem? Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks, Naveen G.

Hi,
We just figured it out. From SYS Admin> Profile> System, we increased the values of Concurrent: OPP Process Timeout and Concurrent: OPP Response Timeout from 300 to 900. Now Check Writer XML CompleteS without any warnings. I appreciate your response.
Thank You, Naveen G.

Archive Check Writer missing header

Thanks ahead for your help in advance.
I made some tiny customization for Archive Check Writer report PAYUSCDA.rdf (just simple format change), in one instance it works fine. When I moved to another instance it print out with no header. There is a parameter called P_HIDE_HEADING in report PAYUSCDA.rdf, if it is set to ‘Y’, there will be heading in the checks. I think the value is passed from the Spawned program “PYUGEN” but I have no idea how it pass the value and why I get 'Y' in one instance but 'N' in another. Could anyone help?
-Bill

Found out why, did not read the note carefully:
Note: If you would like to view the output of the archive version of
this report without needing pre-printed stationery, try the following in
a test instance:
disable the trigger pay_action_parameters_ari
insert a row in pay_action_parameters with the following value -
name=PRINT_REPORT_LABELS
value=PAYUSCDA
enable the trigger pay_action_parameters_ari
Run the report. This will print the labels and make it easier to check
the report without needing pre-printed stationery.

Check Writer(XML)

Hi Guys,
            Need your quick help. Most of you are aware of Check Writer(XML) seeded report. I could get the data for all the Business Groups dynamically.
But the Logo and the Address of the BG remain same for any sorts of parameters. The Logo and the address are defaulted as Oracle.
Could you lemme knw how shd the logo and the address of the BG be changed?
            Any i/p is highly appreciated.
            Thanks in advance.

Hi Swat,
You need to create your own Custom template.
Just cope the seeded one and change the logo to whatever you want.

Check Writer (XML) - where to customize?

Hi everyone,
I have to add mailstop to the check writer (xml) process and it looks like it pulls the information from what is archived. Unfortunately, mailstop is in our system, but is not included in the archived data.
I feel as if I'm not the only person who has to add an additional field to their checks, so how have you done this?
At this point I am unable to even find the name of the package that pulls in the data to produce the XML output.
Can anyone out there let me know how their developers have added additional data to use in the check output?
Thank you in advance!
