How to send notifications to multiple person with same role and with result

Question

How to send notifications to multiple people with resultout as approve/reject?
We are looping the notification by attaching a cursor query to find the different emp nos to send for approval.
I cannot associate a role because these emp nos are sub-set of a role which I have created and i am getting thru the cursor query.
For FYI notification there is no problem, but for approval notification, I am not unable to send approval notifications to all the people.It stops at the first person in the loop.Pls suggest alternate way. Thanks in advance.

Manju,
I would use the cursor to populate the API for creating an ad-hoc role within the workflow process as a function. Then set your notification performer as the ad-hoc role.
Here is an example function:
create or replace procedure sample_emp_fill(itemtype in varchar2,
itemkey in varchar2,
actid in number,
funcmode in varchar2,
resultout in out varchar2) as
cursor get_name is
select ename from scott.emp where mgr = 7839 and empno != 7566;
role_name varchar2(50);
names varchar2(500);
begin
if (funcmode = 'RUN') then
role_name := 'ad_hoc_role_'|| itemkey;
for row in get_name loop
names := names || row.ename || ' ';
end loop;
WF_DIRECTORY.CreateAdHocRole( role_name=>role_name,
role_display_name=>role_name,
language=>'AMERICAN',
territory=>'AMERICA',
role_description=>role_name,
notification_preference=>'QUERY',
role_users=>names,
email_address=>' ',
fax=>'',
status=>'ACTIVE',
expiration_date=>'');
resultout := wf_engine.eng_completed||':'||wf_engine.eng_null;
return;
end if;
end;
