Need to send some notifications by mail (not all notif)

Hi!
We run workflow embeded into EBS (11.5.10.2 4RUP). We have a custom workflow that uses Role (WF_LOCAL_ROLES) connected to employee register (ORIG_SYSTEM = 'PER' and orig_system_id = (person_id in per_all_people_f). we get the Role in the db package that starts the workflow and set it to the attribute Recipient.
I assume there are standard notifications (WF) that are sent to these roles. the roles have a notification_preference = 'SUMMARY' because the administrators/user do not want the system to send many e-mails but a summary e-mail and the user should check theis notif in Applications.
But... an here is the but....our specifc custom workflow creates a notification that we would like to send as an e-mail. what can we do?
The mails should be sent specific to users/employees induvidually. I mean the e-mail is specicif constructed per employee, so it is not a good idea to create a Role that connect many users or something. Can we create new roles specific per user/employee with notification_preference = 'MAILHTML' (or other mail pref)??
Would this work without intefiering with the other role. I need help to understand this functionality and how to get this to work. Thank you in advance!
Regards,
Patricia

Hi,
The only way that I can think of to do this would be to create an ad-hoc user at runtime which has an email preference set to MAILHTML (or any other preference that sends an email), and an email address set to the email address of the recipient. This would then send an email to the employee, and when the emails have been sent then you can purge the ad hoc directory so that you don't end up with lots of obsolete roles in the database.
The downside of this is that there is no way for anyone to see the notification from within eBS. Because it isn't sent to the employee, it would not appear in their worklist, which may or may not be acceptable to the business. One possible workaround would be to create another ad-hoc role, and asssign both the employee user and the ad-hoc user to the role, and expand the role on the notification so that multiple copies are sent (one to each member of the role). If the notification requires a response, then you need to write a post notification function to deal with the possibility of multiple responses, which makes the solution more complex still.

  • Learning Solution - Need to send a reminder e-mail to all participants

    I need to be able to send a reminder e-mail to all participants in a course.  I would like the e-mail to be sent to the participants 7 days prior to the start date of the course.
    We currently use SMARTFORMS to send an e-mail to a participant when he is booked into a course.  We would like to send the same e-mail to the participant 7 days prior to the start of the course as a reminder. 
    Would I accomplish this using a workflow?  Does anyone know a function that could be used to send the same e-mail again?  We have not been able to find the code to send the e-mail to the participant again.

    Hii Karen,
    We are also facing the same problem, but with the same i also want to know that how to send an e-mail to a participant when he is booked into a course coz for me its not working.
    Could you please tell me the steps to follow.

  • PDF Software causing problems in sending some PDF files but not all?

    I have been having problems sending some emails with PDF attatchments, they are being returned more and more frequently.  I've spoken to our server host and his answer is as follows saying that the problem is we are using "cheap PDF software" which is why I can send PDF's via Gmail or Yahoo but not through our server.  He suggest we buy a more expensive software or using Gmail for our important bids and invoices that are sent daily.
    My question is:  Is this even close to what could be causing the problem.  We are using Adobe to create our PDF's using our HP CM1410 or the Neat Scanner.  The Neat is a new device but the problem was ongoing before the Neat Scanner was added.
    Our IT person who set our network, hardware and software says it's the server and he's never heard of this being an Adobe problem.  So we're stuck not knowing who to believe

    There are several potential problems. It could be that your e-mail client is not encoding the PDF properly, but looking at it as an ASCII file (7-bit characters). The encoding is not as much of a problem anymore, but still a potential issue. The structure of the PDF that you are getting from the scanner may be corrupt. You can use some of the preflight scripts to check the integrity of the PDF. You might even try saving as a new PDF to see if the 2 versions work differently.
    It might be better to print the proposals you mentioned to the Adobe PDF printer and get better quality proposals than you would get with a scan. That would also probably avoid the problem you are having.

  • On 3G we cannot send emails from either our iPhones or iPad and this also happens with some WiFi connections but not all.  Yet we can always send emails from our Hotmail Email account.  What is causing this and what do we need to do to resolve it?

    On 3G we cannot send  Business emails from either our iPhones or Ipad and this also happens with some WiFi connections but not all.  Yet we can always send emails from our Hotmail Account using both 3G and WiFi.
    We bought the iPhones and Ipad so that we could send emails while we are out of the Office, but we are not able to do this unless we can find a WiFi connection. Incoming emails are fine.  We use IMAP, for Business emails just incase this is relevant and I know that Hotmail is POP3.
    Our technical IT knowledge is not great, so we look forward to your suggestions as to how to resolve this. 

    Contact whomever supports the email account and get the correct Outgoing email server settings from them.

  • I need to clear some of my mail and pictures because they're using all of my memory, but how?

    I need to clear some of my mail and pictures because they're using all of my memory, but how?

    Just open the "Photos" app, open the "Camera Roll" folder and start deleting the pictures you do not want to keep. For mails just open the Mail app and do the same, click edit, choose your emails you do not want to keep and delete them.

  • I just want to send one form from numbers not all forms.

    I just want to send one form from numbers not all forms.

    I'm sorry, but I don't want to give you bad advice at this point. I don't use Numbers and I would not know how to extract a sheet from the file - which it sounds like you need to do - based on my very, very limited experience with spreadsheet files.
    Maybe this would be of some help to you.
    http://help.apple.com/numbers/ipad/1.7/
    Lets just keep the discussion alive and hopefull someone else will pop in with an idea.
    You should probably post your question in here as well. You would probably get more help since this is the iWorks for iOS forum.

  • Need to send a link in mail using apex

    Hi,
    I need to send a mail using apex which will contain a link for a specific page. For sending mail , I used the following query:
    for c1 in (select EMAIL_ADDRESS
                 from USER_DETAILS
                where USER_NAME= :P4_USER_NAME and EMAIL_ADDRESS=:P4_EMAIL_ADDRESS) loop
      if c1.EMAIL_ADDRESS is not null then

          P_BODY     => 'Your new password is '|| 'xyzxyz',

      end if;
    end loop;
    But how i will send the required link.
    Pls give some idea.
    Thanks,

    Hi Chandra,
    Try this version of your code, you will alter the url to map to your apex server.
    DECLARE
       l_body   VARCHAR2 (4000);
    BEGIN
       FOR c1
          IN (SELECT email_address
                FROM user_details
               WHERE     user_name = :p4_user_name
                     AND email_address = :p4_email_address)
       LOOP
          IF c1.email_address IS NOT NULL
          THEN
             -- Include link to login page
             l_body :=
                   '<p>Your new password is '
                || 'xyzxyz'
                || '  To access the application and change your password, follow the '
                || 'link below.</p><p><a href="http://'
                || '</p><p><a href="http://edwprd:7777/pls/oitp/f?p=&APP_ID.:LOGIN</a></p>';
             apex_mail.send (p_to     => c1.email_address,
                             p_from   => '[email protected]',
                             p_body   => l_body,
                             p_subj   => 'Password detail');
          END IF;

  • In Elements 11 how do I get the verification code needed to send files as e-mail attachments ?

    In Elements 11 how do I get the verification code to send files as e-mail attachments ?

    I’ve found it usually works best with web mail via Adobe after obtaining verification. I know some email services block bulk email completely and I’ve only tested it with Gmail which works fine. Should also work with other web mail e.g. Yahoo and Hotmail. Give it a try. Before you start it will help to check your internet security settings. If they are set to High, reduce the settings to Medium temporarily. Then follow these instructions.
    1. Log in to your mail provider on the web and add the following email to your address/contacts book.
    [email protected]
    2. Open Organizer and on the menu click:
    Edit >> Preferences >> Sharing
    3. Choose Adobe Email Service from the client dropdown menu.
    4. Add your name and email address to the fields provided and click OK
    5. Test the system (first use only)  by selecting a photo in organizer and choosing Share >> Photo Mail then click Next (Mac users should use attachments)
    6. Choose a contact then click  Next
    7. Click Next Step, then click Next - the sender verification dialog will open.
    8. Check you have spelt your email address correctly and hit the Resend E-Mail button.
    9. Go to your inbox (also check spam) and when the Adobe mailer message is received copy (Ctrl+C) the long verification code.
    10. Return to the verification dialog and paste it (Ctrl+V) into the Sender verification field and click OK. Wait for validation confirmation then click OK to continue

  • Some sent Mac Mail not being Received

    My mac. mail account is receiving mail and indicates it is sending mail but it will not allow me to send my mail to myself (as a test) or to my friend with an active mac mail account. She is having the same problem. In an extra bizarre twist, one small forward externally received mail is able to be sent and received by us both. Neither my friend nor I are getting any error messages on our sent mail. Neither of us have any rules applying to our mail that we are aware of would impact sending and receiving mail. I have tried synching my account, etc.. and nothing seems to work. Can you please help.

    Hi. I had this exact same problem, and it had the same oddities yours does. It is an Apple problem, not sure exactly what. But the only way it got solved for me was to write .Mac tech support (be sure it is not their feedback page and also make sure it is .Mac tech support and not Apple). It took them three days, but they finally got back to me and when they did, they gave me detailed instructions that weren't needed, because the problem cleared for me. But not until hearing from them. Either mine was fixed by accident because they cleared the problem for other users who complained or they checked on mine and managed to find the problem.
    This cryptic message was included in my email: "Apple has implemented several measures in the .Mac Mail system to help resolve these issues. To assist in our continuing investigation, please inform us in the event that any messages sent from your .Mac account after September 7, 2006, are not received as expected."
    There has been some speculation that this problem is being caused by anti-spam software Apple has installed on some servers (to see how it worked—I guess not too well!).
    That's all I know about it! There are numerous other threads you can check out for more information, but for me, it was only writing .Mac tech support that made any difference (since the problem was totally on their end).
    Another workaround in the meantime—you can change your SMTP server to the server provided for your ISP. I changed it in my .Mac account that wasn't working and it worked fine sending from my Comcast SMTP server.
    Hope this helps!

  • Messaging Plan needed to send photos via e-mail?

    I'm new to the mobile broadband community and would like to know if I can attach photos taken on my phone to an e-mail.  I have little interest in transmitting photos from my phone to other phones and I do not use text, so I am thinking I really don't need to get a messaging plan.  Right or wrong?

    Yes absolutely. You can always attach a photo via an E-mail just as you would on a computer. However, remember the size of the photos you are sending [i.e. File size!]. Sending a photo via E-mail will count towards your data cap whatever that may be on your plan. Photos, several of them, and just E-mail attachments in general can add up quickly so be sure to stay under your data limit to avoid extra fees.
    Happy E-mailing,

  • I'am trying to copy pictures from Print Shop to send as a e-mail, not an attachment but putting the picture in the actual e-mail. The lettering from the Print Shop document will copy and paste but the picture will not. How do I get it in the email?

    I create a document in Print Shop Delux download pictures from that program to make a flyer. I'am trying to send the flyer to someone and they do not want it as an attachment so I'd like to send it in the body of the e-mail. They lettering on the flyer copy and paste but the picture will not copy and paste. How do I get the picture to copy and paste in the body of the e-mail. I can't copy and paste the whole document because in did a insert text box for the picture.

    Click the image , hold your mouse button, drag it and bring it to Firefox window from task bar below and release it into the body of your e-mail.Works on Gmail, Yahoomail , Hotmail....May not work on other e-mail service providers.
