Notification Settings in Human Task

Hi,
How to get access to the Notification settings (like Notification Message) configured in the "Task Definition" Screen?
I am not sure how to make use if options like sending secure emails, attachments and actionable emails. Does the "Task" will take care of this by itself or should it be copied on to the EMAIL node settings and sent out?
Thanks,
Anil

I am using 10.1.3.1. It has the features to set the notification settings. For e.g.: I set a specific Notification message to all the Assignees using the Notification Settings ->Edit notification message pop-up dialog.
After I set this will the Task automatically take care of notifying message to assignees OR is there a need to add the email component in the flow after the task gets created and assign this notification message to the email subject?
If I have to use the email component to sent the email (which seems logical here) how can I assign (or from which variable in taskdef can I assign ) the message to the subject of the email component?
Thanks,
Anil

OIM 11g - Email Notifications configured in human task is not working

Hi,
My requirement is to send email to the assignee whenever a request is assigned to the user. I created a custom bpel workflow and configured email notiifcation in the human task for the status 'assign'. I have configured Email driver with following properties:
Sender Addresses = <[email protected]>
Default Sender Address = <[email protected]>
Outgoing Mail Server = <Exchange server host>
Outgoing Mail Server Port = 25
Outgoing Mail Server Security = none
Outgoing Default From Addr = <[email protected]>
I have also set the Notification Mode to 'Email' in Workflow Notification Properties.
However when a request is assigned to the user, email notifications are not sent.
I do not see any errors in the logs. In Enterprise Manager console I navigated to SOA Infrastructure Home > Human Workflow Engine > Notification Management and I could see outgoing email notifications corresponding to the workflow instance with the status showing 'Sent'.
Also the Exchange server that is being used has already been tested for provisioning emails from OIM and it works fine for provisioning.
Any pointers/troubleshooting tip to resolve this issue is greatly appreciated.

Custom ADF Taskflow to be displayed as part of Human Task notification

Hi all,
I am trying to display a custom ADF taskflow as part of notification of a Human Task. I see multiple ways of implementing it and need guidance on how to go about this.
As a first step, I created a taskflow based on the human workflow task. This is WEB-INF/oracle/apps/xyzcommon/activities/publicUi/worklist/flow/myTaskflow.xml. Then I see 2 options -
Option 1 - Use setTaskDisplayUrl while creating the task
oracle.bpel.services.workflow.task.model.Task task = objectFactory.createTask();
String AppUrl = oracle.topologyManager.client.deployedInfo.EndPointProvider.getExternalEndpoint("xyzCommon");
String taskflowUrl = AppUrl + "/faces/adf.task-flow?_id=myTaskflow&_document=WEB-INF/oracle/apps/xyzcommon/activities/publicUi/worklist/flow/myTaskflow.xml";
task.setTaskDisplayUrl(taskflowUrl);
Option 2 - Define the taskflow in the Enterprise Manager - Add or remove the URI for the user defined task details application.
Setup the Application Name=worklist, Host Name, HTTS Port, URL=/xyzCommon//faces/adf.task-flow?_id=myTaskflow&_document=WEB-INF/oracle/apps/xyzcommon/activities/publicUi/worklist/flow/myTaskflow.xml
Questions -
1. Are both the above options required to get my notification correct or is just one of them enough? If one of them is enough, which is better to use?
2. Is creating the taskflow from the human workflow task the only way to customize my notification to show a taskflow?
Thanks,

Email notification in human task: How to customize email subject.

Dear all community members,
I am using email notification service in human task to receive email notification if task is assigned to me. I have configured email notification in human task & I do receive the email in my inbox as assignee.
The default email subject is like [Action Required: TASK_TITLE], I want to remove this [Action Required:] from email subject.
I tried setting <%null%> in Notification Header in .task file but the email subject is still has Action Required.
Is there any way to customize email subject so that I can get rid of [Action Required:] [FYI] in email subject.
Thanks & Regards.

I believe this will help - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_cust_res_bndl.htm

Human task notification - Request Info

When configuring notifications for a human task, what is the proper Recipient to set when the Task Status is "Request Info"?
If user A requests information from user B, I want to notify user B. So would that be assignees, reviewer, or none of the above?
Thanks!

Hi Mike,
Who is user B in this context. If he's the "task creator" it will be initiator.
See a list of all possible recipients for the notification message in the developer guide :
[28.3.10.1 Notifying Recipients of Changes to Task Status|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_hwfmodel.htm#BABEGBAA]

Human task notification after due date/expiration date/...

I would like to set a due date (or expiration date) to Human task, and set some notification before this time. Ok, it seemed very easy:
- i set due date to 5 minutes in human task -> Deadlines
- i set notifications in human task -> notification and in tab Advanced i set remind once 2 minutes before due date
Nothing happens. Exactly same (nothing) happens when i do the same with expiration date.
But what exactly is meaned under word "Reminder"?
It's mail? (then where I have to set email adress? I tried to set a "to" field in human task -> notification -> tab Advanced -> notif. header attributes => nothing happened)
It's worklist inbox message?
Or what ist "reminder" and how it should remind me?

Hi,
I don’t know if you’ve managed to resolve this issue yet and you mention you have emails working from BPEL, but I'm not sure if you've got any notifications working for the Human Task, if not then I have done some work with the human task notifications and although I’ve not tried to do what you’re doing, this is what I have learned.
Firstly to receive any notifications you need to configure the Messaging Driver and Workflow Notification Properties…
In Enterprise Manager expand [farm] -> SOA -> soa-infra
Right click soa-infra and choose SOA Administration -> Workflow Notification Properties
Underneath the page title (Workflow Notification Properties) is a note telling you to configure the Messaging Service Driver. Click the "Go to the Messaging Driver page" link.
In the associated drivers section you will have a single entry for soa_server1 (or what ever it's called for you). In the right hand column there is a button for configuring the driver, click this.
In the driver specific configuration, scroll down to OutgoingMailServer and enter the hostname or IP address of your mail server, then click Apply at the top of the screen.
Now go back to the Workflow Notification Properties screen and choose “Email” from the notification Mode and enter some sensible email addresses in the Notification Service section. It’s useful to have real email addresses in here at the moment because any failures will be returned to this address.
You now need to restart Weblogic for these changes to take affect.
After the restart you can test the notifications by doing the following
Back in Enterprise Manager expand [farm] -> SOA -> soa-infra
Right click soa-infra and choose Service Engines -> Human Workflow
Click on the Notification Management tab.
You can click the "Sent Test Notification" button to make sure everything is working ok. This screen also allows you to monitor notifications for failures.
Now that the notifications have been set up you can configure who gets notified on which events against your human task in JDeveloper.
The email addresses for the users are retrieved from your identify provider for the relevant user, by default this is the internal LDAP directory. I’m not using this, so I’m not sure exactly how this will work. There are options in the worklist application for individual users, but I’m not using this either.
Now that this is set up you can configure the human task within JDeveloper. On the notification tab you can decide who gets notified when. By default when a task is assigned to a user, the assignees are notified, you can play about with these settings to see what works best for you. Have a look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_workflow.htm#BABBHDGF for more information.
I’m not sure I’ve solved your problem, but I hope this at least helps.

BPM human task actionable user notification email not working

Hi ,
I am triing to send actionable email notification to assignees through the notification tab of the human task. The email settings in the em console has done fine so that I am getting the notification email without any fail.
But the problem over here is the actionable buttons / links (Like Approve or Reject ) are not there inside the email body.
I have checked the make notification actionable check box in jdev human task as well as configured the actionable email address in the server em console.Still the email body is not having the action items.
email body is here
Task Notification PendingUser Notification requires your attention.
Access this task in the Workspace Application
<PendingUser Notification > above is the task title.
Please suggest
many many thanks
Tuku

Hi All,
I got the solution for it. Now the assignee is able to get the actionable email.
the mistake i did is during the human task notification tab configuration I have put separate email id in the recipient column of first row.You need to do is ,choose Assignees from the drop down value , check the check box make notification actionable, then set the proper email in the email attribute property of the assigned user (user creation time).
Thanks

Human task notification email problem

Hi All,
We are getting a strange error with the Human Task Notification email. All mail settings look fine, but we are receiving "Error 500 -- internal server error" in the notification email. As far as we can tell, the email is sent to the right receipt, which is specified by expression, and Worklistapp is working properly. The error is complaining that the authentication of the user "workflowsystem" fails. I believe that it's a system user, but have no idea why it fails.
This is the notification sent to the assignee and the followings are the details of the error:
Error 500--Internal Server Error
javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.ServletException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: oracle.security.jps.internal.api.jaas.AssertionException: javax.security.auth.login.FailedLoginException: [Security:090304]Authentication Failed: User workflowsystem javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: [Security:090300]Identity Assertion Failed: User workflowsystem does not exist

Looks like you may be specifying ad-hoc email address (by expression) in the notification configuration, but have not configured the notification for “secure” notification.
If the notification is actionable, then the runtime impersonates the participant to ensure that the form renders as it would in the browser. However if the configuration of recipient is ad-hoc (i.e. an email address rather than participant type) then the attempt to impersonate fails, in this case trying to be “workflowsystem” user, which isn’t a real user in the directory.
You can send a notification to an explicit email, but the notification has to configured as secure, which means they just get a link to the task in the message body.

Pdf email attachment for human task detail notification

We have a human task detail notification with pdf attachment.
The email notification (generated automatically) flat out all content but no pdf attachment.
Is this supported and if yes how to make it work?

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

BPEL Human Task: how to remove task details section from notification email

This is concerning the human task component of SOA Suite 11g. Upon task assignment, the assignee receives an email notification with an administrator configured text. Below this text the task details are automatically added. How can this be removed? Marking the notification as 'secure' also removes the administrator configured text. But that I'd like to keep. Only the automatically added task details section needs to go. Any hints?

This configuration is available in the following navigation. Workflow Administrator Web Applications > Oracle Applications Manager > Workflow Manager > Service Components > Workflow Notification Mailer > Edit > Advanced > Message Generation section > Templates. You can refer to the "Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide" > "Modifying Your Message Templates" for more information.
Please note that this applies to ALL the outbound notifications, not specific for Purchasing notifications.

Human task notification message configuration.

Hi All,
whenever any human task assignes to an user, SOA11g server sends a e-mail notification to that particular user. I need to configure/change the standard notification message with the custom message as per my poject needs. I have been trying to change the 'Notification Header' field of HumanTask file inside BPEL project from JDeveloper IDE. Now, after redeploying the solution, modified notification message is sending but, in E-mail message it is printing whole notification message in a single line, i need to print the e-mail message in the specified format. How to achieve this?.
Thanks,
Naga.

Ok try this instead:-
concat(ns0:property_name, ",", ns0:property_value,"& # 13;") (""&amp sign # 13; ) (use without spaces.)
is supposed to add a new line .
The trick to insert the new line character in XML payload from Oracle BPEL is to append
in the from expression of assign activity, then check your .bpel file it would have &#13; rather than
because Jdeveloper replaces & with its equivalent escape character &. You need to replace & with & so it would become the correct new line character

Make notification actionable feature in Human Task

Hi All,
While creating a Human Task, I have selected the option "Make notification actionable".
So, in the notification email i get all the custom outcome links.
They appear in a default format.
I wanted to know is there any way we could control these links like 1) formatting them to get displayed in a particular format and
2) show only some of the custom outcomes in the email like 2 out of the 3 outcomes.
I know that this is an out of the box feature of the Human Task but still wanted to know if there is any possibilty to control the actionable links in the email.
Thanks,
Suman

Hi Shah,
Thanks for yopur reply.
The links you provided were pretty helpful.
My requirement is to customize the actionable links that appear in the email on selecting the "Make notification actionable" feature of HumanTask.
The links will be dynamic according to the outcomes that we specify while creating the HumanTask but the font of the links in the email will be static i guess.
So, there might be some way to customize them.

Suman

Human task notification doesn't permits I18N?

Hi Gurus,
I'm using the OIM 11g and Jdev 11.1.1.4.
I did a ResourceBundle to translate my messages at notification into Human Task.
The title is translated, but the message( Notification) doesn't get the key to show.
I put this code <%hwf:getTaskResourceBundleString(/task:task/task:payload/task:RequestID,'HEADER', 'es')%> at title, and the title is showed ok.
But i puted this code at notification header and the message is empty.
What's Wrong?
Thanks in advanced.
