How to create an OAF page that does not need login to access

We have a lot of Oracle users, and everyday there are some users forget there username or password and need reset. I really want to use a web page to let them reset their passwords automatically. The web page will call the API to reset password if it found the user request is legible.
So based on the situation, the users should not need a login to get to this page, can I do this using OAF?
And idea is welcome, thank you for your help!

Srini,
Thank you for your response, I think we need to go back to my original question, is it possible to create an OAF page that does not need login, how can I do that.
I think I said too much and led us to go to a different direction I did't want to. But I am still glad to texplain why I need a custom password reset process, that is all about business requirement, here it is:
----I am not sure that "company issues" (such as what you described) can be solved by software -
I already have a solution for that. Create a custom OAF page, ask user to input his SSN / Date of Birth.... then I can figure out what his real username easily. And I can reset his password as his SSN or something which only this particular user knows. Then he can login.
----you may have to impart training to end users.
As I mentioned, most of our users use only Benefit self service. They only login several times a year, even they are trained this year, most of them will forget next year, this is just human nature. And because the nature of our business, thousands of employees may change at the end of a year. It does not make any business sense for company to prepare trainers every year.
----In any case, the functionality you require is already built into the product.
I guess the reason most companies hire Oracle Developers is that some functionality Oracle Applications provide is not exactly the companies needed. When there is Oracle Apps product, there is alway customization.

  • Javascript to create bookmark for page that does not exist yet

    Hello all,
    Is there a way to write js for a bookmark that goes to a page that does not currently exist?
    For example, I have a 20 page pdf document.  We have FileMaker Pro that can 'append' to a PDF additional pages.  So when FileMaker pro appends two new pages (bringing us up to 22 pages), I'd like to have 2 'existing' bookmarks in the original 20 page pdf document that will, when clicked, go to page 21 and 22 respectfully.
    Is this possible and would anyone have the JS I would put into that bookmark?
    Thank you in advance!!

    Here's what I posted in the other forum you posted this to, in case it might help someone here:
    The JavaScript would be:
    // Go to page 21
    pageNum = 20;
    If there are fewer than 21 pages, it will go to the last page. If you want to avoid this, you could do something like:
    // Go to page 21 if there are at least 21 pages
    if (numPages > 20) pageNum = 20;

  • (ES4) How to create a flowable form that does not overlap when pushed to a new 2nd page

    I have a form that involves text insertion boxes, plain text, and checkboxes.  I successfully made my text insertion boxes a flowing expandable layout, but once it gets too big and it has to push the subforms below it onto a 2nd page, all that information overlaps eachother on the 1st line of the new page like the subforms disappear. How do i get it to flow like the original 1st page? I can post a pic if its confusing, but its so frusturating!

  • I would like to create a new page that does not show up in my "menu" .

    I would like to set up a new page on my website for a specific one-time use.
    I don't want the page to show up in my menu at the top.
    The new "hidden" page will have specific files that already exist on other pages but re-arranged for a specific client.
    Is there a way to do this so that I can just send someone a link to the new hidden page?
    Thanks

    Open iWeb and then create the page you want to hide. Open the Inspector and then click on Page and then click on 'do not include page in nav bar'. It is as simple as.

  • Creating a page that does not exist

    Hi everyone,
    Is it possible to create a page that does not exist based on the user input?
    By does not exist I mean that it is not stored in your computer and JSP will generate the page based on the user input. For example, in forums the user can create a new topic and based on the options selected a page will be created and stored that was not present before. The same thing happens when a message has a large number of replies, in which a new page will be created and attached to the previous page. I hope that I am not misunderstanding the concept of creating pages in forums.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Basil Mahdi

    Hi,
    what happens in the forums is that you type in a message and that message is stored in a database. Along with your message the number of thread, forum number and message number is stored. Next time somebody wants to read your message, this message is taken from the db and shown to you by the jsp. The JSP ofcourse does more thant taht it shows also other messages and static HTML.

  • How to redirect a page that does not exist

    Hello everyone. Thanks for the feedback so far.
    I am editing an old site and there are going to be some pages that do not exist anymore.
    Is there a way to have an automatic redirect so that if any user types in ANY page that does not exist sitewide, they can be directed to another main redirection page which displays a message and then to the main page again?
    The current site is littered with empty pages with a redirect link on each at the moment which does not look good and it's awful to maintain as these non-meaningful filenames the original developer has used are no help at all.
    Thank you in advance for all feedback
    Terry

    What is the web address of the old site?
    If it's on a Linux server then you can use .htaccess rewrites to automate much of the redirection heavy lifting

  • Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year; would like a newer release.

    Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year (11 Feb 2013); would like a newer release.
    Can't find much about the standalone viewer, except in the Flash Builder docs, which says a .swf can specify to use it. I can't find a download link.
    Thanks, Doug

    You can download the standalone player (Projector) from https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you need to make the .swf file association manually.

  • Need to create a sales order that does not create demand

    Hi,
    We need to create a no cost sales order - that does not create demand
    In our current set-up when we try to create a no cost sales order with a material ( It Cat = Norm) we see demand being created in MD04
    What configuration settings will allow us a deliverable order - that does not create demand (no MRP run?)
    Thanks,
    SM

    Hello,
    For this set of requirement i think the best option would be to configure a New Sales Order Type and a new Schedule Line Category. In VOV6, While you are defining a new Schedule line category in the transaction flow make sure to switch off the three check box.
    Transfer of requirements / Begin assembly order from SD
    Availability check for sales
    Product allocation active
    Then when we are assigning this newly defined Schedule line Category to Item category, make sure to leave the field of MRP Type as blank in VOV5.

  • Create a UM mailbox that does not receive mails and doesn't record voicemails

    Hi,
    I want to create special UM mailboxes that only serve as announcements. These mailboxes should NOT receive any mails but more importantly, should not offer to record any voicemail.
    I found several resources online to achieve part of what I want, but I can't find a way to create a mailbox (or auto-attendant) that does not accept to record voicemail.
    Could any one help me out with that? Is it possible at all?
    I'm running Exchange 2010.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Let me clarify my request.
    I want an emergency announcement number. I have an internal number, let's say 950. I want to be able to forward calls to that internal extension, and when people call it, I want them to hear an announcement that says, for example "office is exceptionally
    closed today", then does NOT offer to the caller to record a message. It can hang up, or simply stay silent until the caller hangs up, that doesn't really matter.
    This was a very easy thing to do on the old Cisco Unity voicemail system I am used to. Now that I'm discovering Unified Messaging, I have been struggling with that for hours. 
    I have found this article on technet blog which goes exactly in the direction I want:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/ucedsg/archive/2010/04/12/office-closure-and-exchange-unified-messaging.aspx
    It says in the opening paragraph: "This scenario also needs to be configured so that the Mailbox which is setup for this is not setup to accept any voicemail messages."
    This is EXACTLY what I need but problem: the issue is not addressed at all in the blog post! Or I am missing something obvious.
    Thank you for your help :)

  • A Home Page That Does Not Require A Logon?

    I am a new user of Oracle Portal and I am trying to build a portal site for our department. I have an Oracle Portal using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) SEOne for Windows and have the following question:
    Is it possible to create a portal page that a viewer sees immediately when the page renders for the URL without having to log on to the Portal?
    Essentially, we would like to create a page whereby a viewer will see an initial home page, then if the viewer is part of our department, they can then choose to log in to our Oracle Portal when necessary.
    Let me know if any of you have ideas.

  • It it possible to look for a page that does not contain a string?

    Is it possible in the search feature in Dreamweaver CS3 to find all pages that do NOT contain a specific string?

    I don't think so, at least not directly. I could be wrong, Regular Expressions can be pretty powerful, I'm not sure how well they're implemented in CS3 though: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/regular_expressions_pt1.edu.html
    Maybe you could do a find/replace of that specific string, with itself.
    All of the files that have it would be updated without actually changing the code.
    The Date Modified for the file would change though.
    The files without the string of info you are looking for would have the old modification date.
