Multpile Email issue in Oracle Alert

Hi,
I need to do a customization where email needs to be sent when the quote gets Approved. I used Oracle Alerts for that. I have defined the alert on aso_quote_headers_all by checking 'After Update' option.
Whenever we approve the quote, there are multiple requests get initiated (which we can see from Request Menu of Alert Manager). Also we get multiple emails for single update.
Can anyone please suggest what could be the issue.
Thanks,

Thanks to All for the response.
The issue is resolved when i used Peiodic Alert.
As 'thefurryone' said, Eventalert fires action for each ACTUAL table update. By ACTUAL, I meant the updates which are not visible to the enduser.
You may chk at the below metalink notes to get a better idea.

  • Issue with Oracle Alerts after a recent chagne

    Hi,
    We use Oracle Alerts to send remainder emails regarding pending notifications. And we have configured these alerts to be run on specific dates of a month like 12th and 15th. For fixing any issues, we do the changes on our dev/test instance and extract them to an LDT and get them tested on QA instance and then move it to Production instance.
    We have made a recent change to couple of the alerts which were supposed to be run on every 12th and 15th day of a calendar month, but after the changes they are run daily.
    Following are the changes:
    LDT extract before change:
    BEGIN ALR_ALERTS "XBOL" "BAC OTL India Payroll Reminders to Managers on 12"
    OWNER = "05132"
    ALERT_CONDITION_TYPE = "P"
    ENABLED_FLAG = "Y"
    START_DATE_ACTIVE = "2009/08/13 00:00:00"
    DESCRIPTION = "Payroll Reminders to Managers on 12th of month"
    FREQUENCY_TYPE = "M"
    MONTHLY_CHECK_DAY_NUM = "12"
    DATE_LAST_CHECKED = "2010/02/22 05:12:08"
    MAINTAIN_HISTORY_DAYS = "5"
    CHECK_START_TIME = "48600"
    SQL_STATEMENT_TEXT =
    "SELECT\n\
    LDT extract after change:
    BEGIN ALR_ALERTS "XBOL" "BAC OTL India Payroll Reminders to Managers on 12"
    OWNER = "021Y3"
    ALERT_CONDITION_TYPE = "P"
    ENABLED_FLAG = "Y"
    START_DATE_ACTIVE = "2009/08/13 00:00:00"
    DESCRIPTION = "Payroll Reminders to Managers on 12th of month"
    FREQUENCY_TYPE = "M"
    MONTHLY_CHECK_DAY_NUM = "12"
    DATE_LAST_CHECKED = "2010/02/22 05:12:08"
    MAINTAIN_HISTORY_DAYS = "30"
    CHECK_START_TIME = "0"
    SQL_STATEMENT_TEXT =
    "select\n\
    From the above, you can see nothing apart from MAINTAIN_HISTORY_DAYS & CHECK_START_TIME and the SQL query has been changed. Still the frequence type is M(monthly) and day to run is 12th. But still its being run daily.
    Can you please let me know why changing history days and check start time is impacting the alert behavior over here. Is this expected behavior ?
    Is it due to the date_last_checked being in 2010 ? If so, why the same behavior wasn't observed before change/fix ?
    Regards,
    Pramod.

    Thanks for your response Gaurav. Reviewed the pointed out metalink note id's and they were very helpful.
    The NEXT_SCHEDULED_CHECK in alr_periodic_alerts_view is set to 'T' for these two alerts which means it will be picked up by the next Periodic Scheduler run and hence it picked up. That clarifies the issue.
    But this behavior was experienced only after the recent change, and with the past changes to these alerts, it used to get fired only on the scheduled date(like 12th in this case) and even at that times the NEXT_SCHEDULED_CHECK was set to 'T'.
    The only extra modification this time was CHECK_START_TIME which was changed from 48600 to 0.
    I was able to investigate further on this and when I set this back to 48600 and take date_last_checked back in time for this alert, it was not getting fired/run in the next time. Its running on the scheduled date only.
    Appreciate any explanation on this ?

  • Oracle Alert doesn't send the email

    Hi all,
    I have created an Oracle Alert which executes in an "Event Mode" not "periodically". The event triggers when I modified ( insert or update ) the table po_vendors.
    I set all of the things in Oracle Alert that I need. However when I execute an update in sql-plus session, nothing happened. The email didn't arrive.
    Do I have to say something to the DBA in order to check de email service in Linux?.
    How can I test different step in order to find which is the real problem ?.
    I activated "Periodic Alert Scheduler" this is not the problem.
    I have read many papers in metalink, but I don't find the solution.
    I have 11.5.8 OF version.
    I appreciate so mucho your help.
    Regards,
    Mariano.-

    Hi Hussein,
    I read the notes that you sent me. They were usefull. I tasted with a ¨mail command¨ in Unix Environment and I realized that there was a problem in the setup configuration.
    I reported the issue to the dba. He told me that they use utl_smtp function in a package, and they don´t configure de server were the Oracle was installed and they won´t do it in the future.
    The question is...Can I trigger a pl-sql function inside of the Alert in order to avoid using a database trigger ? Is it possible ?.
    Sourdoughwannab :
    Where Can I see the history alert ?.
    Regards Mariano.-

  • Sending Email by Oracle Alert when no rows returned

    Hello All,
    I am having one problem.
    In the Oracle Alert i wrote one query which is returing 0 rows.
    But sometimes it will returns some rows.
    And my requirement is that when this query doesn't return any rows , i want to send one email to user that there is no data
    and if the data is present then i have to send the data.
    But currently there is no data so i made one Oracle Alert and when i am running that Alert then it is showing me a one message and mail doesn't sent
    Oracle Alert did not perform the summary action "My Test Alert" because no exceptions were returned for this action set.
    Please Suggest
    Thanks & Regards

    Write a second alert that fires near about the same time.
    select 'send email'
    from dual
    where 0 = (select count(1) from your_table)
    This alert will send a "no rows found" email.
    Hope this helps,

  • Alert issue in oracle EBS

    Hi,
    I have a test instance with EBS:12.0.6,Oracle DB :10.2.0.4 and RHEL:4

    How do you get the error?
    Can you find any errors in the workflow log file?
    The steps in the doc should be applicable (except for the last step), so you may try the same solution and check then.

  • Oracle Alert Issue

    Hi ,
    I'm have a requirement to create an Oracle Alert which will send an email notification that has mutiple lines. I have a sql query which returns mutiple rows. currently it is sending separate email for each row. Is there a way to send mutiple lines in one email. Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes. You can setup what is called a Summary action. Summary action lets you define a message template that has a header section and a detail section (where you can print your details)
    There is a seeded alert called "Indexes too large or fragmented" that has a summary action template that looks like this.
    List of indexes exceeding &MAXBLOCKS blocks or &MAXEXTENTS extents:
    Blocks Extents Percentage Increase
    =**= Enter summary template below this line =**=
    **Owner: &OWNER &BLOCKS &EXTENTS &EXTPCT
    Index: &INDEX_NAME
    =**= Enter summary template above this line =**=
    Make sure that you put the "=**=" line exactly as it is.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to create Oracle Alert without metioning the email address in To Field

    Hi,
    I just wanna know that how to create Oracle Alert without metioning the email address in To Field.
    Please help thanks.

    If you don't enter anything in the email field, the alert email won't go out.
    If you just want to test or if you plan to use the history, you can put a non-existant email there.
    The alert will fire anyway.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to configure oracle alerts to use Workflow mailer?

    Hello Guys:
    We were trying to setup oracle alerts using workflow mailer. I have created a dedicated mailer for handling oracle alerts related mail.
    Here is what I need to clarify:
    1. Having setup a new mailer for Oracle alert do I have to still configure the Options in Oracle Alerts. This is where you choose which type of mail u want to use ( like Unix mail,Windows NT mail )
    2.How do I tell oracle alert to use the new mailer that I created exclusively for this? While creating the mailer at some point I remember putting ALR in configuration form.
    I am on 11.5.10 CU2. I am on 11i.ATG_PF.H
    Regards,
    Bala

    Hi Hussain:
    Based on the note I realised that my oracle alerts will user unix sendmail. But then If u go to " Oracle Alert Options "
    -- > Mail systems -- I check Unix send mail
    -- > Mail server options ( Do I have to fill this section? )
    My guess is that the send mail will post the email to a IMAP account ( I created oraclealert account ) and IMAP account will push the alert email to Recipient
    Mail Database/Server Name --- imap.mydomain.com
    Mail Priority --- Normal
    Accounts
    Application Installation username Password
    Blank ** Blank ** oraclealert pwd
    Blank ** Blank ** oraclealert pwd
    ** - It wont allow me to choose an application.
    Is there a simple test to make sure that my oracle alert is working or not? I appreciate your help.
    Regards,
    Bala
