How to attach an Excel document with the Workflow notification?

Hi,
I need to pass an Excel document through workflow process in several notification nodes. Do you have any demonstration example which shows how to implement it? I found some threads like this, but nobody send me the example. I think I need the example's with Oracle Text and workflow 2.6.3 and an example inside Oracle Collaboration Suite(OCS) Files. Please send these examples to [email protected]
Thanks a million
Tulip

Hi,
I had the same issue and I found that Oracle Workflow does not attach files. The solution is to create a table with blob, clob, ordsys, etc data types and reference to the file from a notification and a message.
I did an interface with java to read the document, and then put the link in the oracle workflow message. The link opened the file.
So, for any workflow development is recomended to use your own Entity-Relation Model, including the process number and the files attached to that process.

Problem with the Workflow Notification Mailer

Hi Community,
Recently we have just installed the E-Business Suite release 12.0.4 from e-delivery.oracle.com for Linux x86-64 using the VISION Demo database, in order to see and test the release for a future upgrade of our Production environment.
The installation was succesful and we setting up the Workflow Notification Mailer with the data of our SMTP server in order to outbound notifications to that server.
Now, In order to continue testing that instance, we have just executed the scripts to stop de APPS tier and to start the APPS tier, and it seems that the workflow notification mailer can not establish network connection with the e-mail server (Exchange server) after starting the APPS tier.
The Linux server has defined in its hosts file the Exchange e-mail server, and from operating system, we can establish a ping connection.
Any help will be appreciated.
Luis.

How to create a working link anchor in an EXCEL document with the report generation toolkit?

I am using the latest report generation toolkit and want to add links on the first worksheet pointing to the other worksheets in the same document.
I am using the "Append Hypertext Link Anchor to Report" VI. The links are created, but don't work when clicking them.
Question now is: How does a link to a cell on a different worksheet needs to look like?
It can not be that complicated but all variations I tried did not work and I could not find any information about this problem. So any help is appreciated!
Thanks and Regards,
Ingo
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks, Brian, for your support! - It's working.
It's hard to understand why NI did not pass this parameter to the top of the call chain...
I also needed some time to understand the syntax of the string passed to the subaddress node:
The name of the worksheet needs to be framed by single quotation marks and the following cell address must preceeded by an exclamation point (!).
A working link pointing to cell "A1" of "Worksheet 1" looks like:
'Worksheet 1'!A1
Maybe also of interest: If you want to point the link to a worksheet inside the document itself, the parameter "address" (URL of link - href) can be left empty.
Thanks and Regards,
Ingo

How can I display Excel document saved as html in ebDynpro Office Contol?

Hello,
I have a problem with displaying of Excel document saved as html inside WebDynpro Office Control.
Could you explain why OfficeControl cannot display Excel document with content type =text/htm?
How you know, control must be bound to binary data. And then mime type is set as
bin.setMimeType(new WebResourceType("html", "text/html", false));
The empty document is displayed always.
Nevertheless, excel file is displayed perfect, when
bin.setMimeType(new WebResourceType("xls ", "application/msexcel", false));

The OfficeControl UI element is made available as an ActiveX control, so that the UI element can be displayed in browsers that support ActiveX controls.
The ActiveX control enables display of the following documents:
1.Microsoft Word documents with the doc file extension
2.Microsoft Excel documents with the xls file extension
This is the reason why document with other content types are not displayed.
Data source must be bound to binary data because files are read as bytes in this scenario.
Hope this helps you.
Do let me know if your problem is solved.

Vijith

Regarding attachment of own smartforms with the standard report

hi experts,
cud u plz tell me how to attach our own smartforms with the standard report i.e if i want to attach a smart forms with me23n to get the printout......plz help me...

Hi
Goto the NACE tcode and attache the own smartform and attach to the output type
NACE is the Tcode used to link the Application type, Output Types and its processing Routines like ( Driver programs and attached Script forms or Smartforms).
You should know the Application of a document first Like:
for PO it is EF, for sales Doc's it is V1, for Delivery docs it is V2, for billing Doc's it is V3 etc.
so first select the Application type (ex: EF) for PO and press OUtput types
then a list will come in that you should know the related output type for PO.
in this case it is NEU,
select that and click on the processing Routines button on the left side
it will display the Medium, Driver Program and the Script form or smartform related to that document..

How to attach a document with the Requisition Workflow?

I am testing the Oracle Requisition Demo workflow.Whenever i initiate the
workflow process with Reminder Requisition Document Option.The browser pop up
with the Error "The requested URL cannot be retrieved". Can anyone please guide me how do i attach a document with this process?
Regards,
Abrar

This field in the demo is designed to execute a PL/SQL procedure not store and attached document.
for example if you launch it from the demonstration Page instead of the launch process page the following will be populated into the document field. (PLSQL:WF_REQDEMO.REMINDER_REQ_DOCUMENT/WFDEMO:A1)
You can store a CLOB or BLOB in a workflow document attribute. Here is a link to the doc.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B13789_01/workflow.101/b10284/defcom11.htm#doc
If you want to upload and pass documents through a workflow you can do it in a variety of ways. Personally I would use Oracle Files if I wanted it off the shelf. Or use Oracle Text and the database and pass the document throught the workflow as a URL. There is also the CMSDK.

Numbers does not have rotated text within cells. You can place a text box over the cell that has rotated text but you cannot rotate text within a cell.

How do I convert an excel (2008) document to Numbers? When I drag the Excel document onto the Numbers icon I get, "Import error. The file format is invalid"

How can I convert an Excel (2008) document to Numbers. When I drag the Excel document onto the Numbers icon I get, "Import error. The file format is invalid.

That extension identifies the most current Excel file format, a format that can be opened by Numbers '09 (and by Numbers '08).
A check with Numbers '09 shows it capable of opening .xlsx files when right-clicked (and Numbers chose as the application to open, when double-clicked (if Numbers has been set as the default application to open this type of file, or when dragged to the Numbers icon in the dock.
I see two possibilities for Numbers inability to open it and the message you receive:
1. The file is not actually an Excel file, and the sender has added the .xlsx extension to the filename manually.
2. The file is an Excel file, but has somehow been corrupted.
Have you tried opening the file with a different application? The open source Office suites, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice and NeoOffice can also open .xlsx files. If they're unable to open this one, that would point toward the file itself being faulty. You can download these applications from their rspective websites, linked in the names above. All request a donation to support future development, but only Neo requires one to have been made recently, and that only for the current release (which won't be necessary to open .xlsx files).

I am trying to save a document with the new pages and it will only save as a zip file any ideas on how to change this?

I am trying to save a document with the new Pages and it is only saving as a ZIP file anyone know how to fix this or choose a different file type?

Take a look at the FileSelector
First make sure the FileSelector is expanded so you can see the directory and sidebar. That's what the little disclosure triangle up by the filename is for. Once the FS has been expanded to look like the above picture, look to see what subdirectory has been selected. Use the SideBar to select an appropriate one.

WORKAROUND: "A document with the name 'vnd.ms-excel' is already open"

I'm posting this in the hope that it might help someone else (or that someone else might suggest a better solution)...
I'm using the technique described in the Integrating Oracle Reports in Oracle Forms Services Applications white paper. Basically, this means using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT to generate a report, and then navigating to a URL of the form...
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet/getjobid<n>?server=<name>...to show it.
I had the requirement that some reports (with DESFORMAT=DELIMITEDDATA) needed to open in Excel, so for these reports I added the MIMETYPE command to the URL, so that it was of the form:
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet/getjobid<n>?server=<name>&mimetype=application/vnd.ms-excelThis appeared to work, but only for one report at a time. I could generate one report this way, and when I navigated to its URL, the report would be displayed by Microsoft Excel within a new browser window as expected. However, if I left the browser window open, then generated a second report and navigated to its URL, a new, empty browser window was displayed, but a "Microsoft Excel" message box appeared with the following message:
A document with the name 'vnd.ms-excel' is already open. You cannot open two documents with the same name, even if the documents are in different folders.
To open the second document, either close the document that's currently open, or rename one of the documents.
When I chose OK (the only button), the message box closed, but the new browser window remained empty.
If Excel was already running to begin with, the message box was obscured behind other windows, and the new browser window remained empty and appeared to never finish loading (because it was waiting for a response from the message box). The message box only appeared if I explicitly navigated to Excel (for example, using the taskbar). When I chose OK, a "File Download" dialog appeared, followed by a message box that reported the following:
Microsoft Excel for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
When I closed this message box, Excel shut down.
I could not find this documented anywhere, but it appears as if Excel interprets the text after the last "/" in the URL as the file name. In my case, this was the same text every time (specifically "vnd.ms-excel"), which caused problems because Excel does not allow you to open two files with the same name.
My workaround was simply to add the "JOBNAME=/<n>" command (where <n> is the job ID) to make the text after the last "/" unique (at least in my case). In other words, by using a URL of the form...
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet/getjobid<n>?server=<name>&mimetype=application/vnd.ms-excel&jobname=/<n>...I was able to avoid the problem. For example, for job ID 123, the URL would be...
http://<host>/reports/rwservlet/getjobid123?server=<name>&mimetype=application/vnd.ms-excel&jobname=/123...and Excel would interpret the file name as "123".
Hope this helps.

Thanks for posting, this solution worked!
