Notifications to a responsibility or role?

Hello,
We are in a multi-org environment. I have set the HZ User Creation Workflow Administrator role item attribute as SYSADMIN. I would like to send notifications to a responsibility which in turn will send an email to the users of the responsibility. What is the best way to approach this?
1. Create a new application responsibility/role (via the application) that is not multi-org assigned and assign the users to it.
2. Create a new role via wf_directory api and assigns the applications users to it? This approach doesn't allow us to control the additions/deletions of user via the apps.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi,
I would go with the first choice, and use an Apps Responsibility. That way, you can use the screens to manage the user list, rather than APIs.

Workflow Notifications not sending for AdHoc Role

Hi,
I am trying to send my workflow to multiple dynamic users, using the call createAdHocRole.
Here is my code (I currently am using 2 user names for testing. This will be eventually be a variable) :
+-- create role --+
apps.wf_directory.createAdHocRole(v_role_name -- role name
+, v_role_name -- role display name+
+, null -- language+
+, null -- territory+
+, null -- role description+
+, null -- notification preference+
+, 'JEHANSEN,DCDRIGGS' -- role users+
+, null -- email addresses+
+, null -- fax+
+, 'ACTIVE' -- status+
+, trunc(sysdate) + C_PURGE);+
When I run the workflow, it runs with no errors, but I am not receiving any emails. I can view the workflow in the Status Monitor and I see the Notification being created and it shows my new role as the performer. Both usernames that I am using for the Role Users are setup as Users and Employees in the environment.
I've queried the WF_USER_ROLES_ASSIGNMENTS table and I see my new role there, and both usernames are in the table. Both users are also in WF_USERS with email addresses, and also in WF_LOCAL_USER_ROLES. When I query WF_NOTIFICATIONS, I see the notification being created there, with a status of OPEN, receipient_role being my new role, mail_Status is blank, responder is blank, original_recipient is my new role, from_user is the supplier, and to_user is my role name .
Can anyone see what I am missing? I thought if I create the role with a null email_address it then sends email to all users in that role? It probably doesn't matter, but these are being submitted upon the change of a PO in iSupplier (Oracle Apps).
Thanks,
Janel

Hi,
Once you have created the role, they can be referenced in your Workflow process in the same way as an other role. For example, create an ad-hoc role "MYTEST123" using the standard WF_DIRECTORY API. Then you can use this as the notification recipient in your process.
If you are creating the roles dynamically within a process, then once the role has been created, set an item attribute (e.g. attribute NTF_RECIPIENT) to the name of the new adhoc role, and then have the notification recipient set to the value of the item attribute.

Email notifications but no responses

I received 4 emails indicating that responses had been posted to one of my forms, but the form showed no responses. This was at a time when my contract renewal was due and Adobe didn't have a current credit card on file. I updated the credit card information as soon as I received the notice, but none of the four responses ever appeared on my form. If the form was deactivated due to lack of payment, it seems the user should have gotten a message to that effect rather than just accepting their information and throwing it away. Are the responses lost forever?

Josh, I have confirmed that it’s the correct form. I only have one account, so I know I was logged in to the right one. The notification emails were sent out on August 14th at 9:32am, 10:55am, 11:03am, and 11:23am. I looked at the form within just a few minutes of receiving the emails and found no entries.
The same form now shows 2 responses, but when I look at them, there’s one with data and a second one with no data at all – just a date of yesterday at 4pm. I don’t know if a user can submit a form with no data at all, but that’s how it appears.
I’m concerned that we’re losing data. I’d appreciate your help in tracking down what’s going on.
Thanks,

Email Notifications Based on Response

Is it possible to have the email notification go to different email addresses based on response from a drop down menu?
For example, a "Safety" issue, when chosen, would be automatically forwarded to the safety manager or a "Clinical" issue to the clinical operations manager and not each and every email address of the whole team?
Thanks for your help!

That might be a good idea for the future.
Thanks for your help and I hope that you have a great day!

Thread notification with a response

Hi
I have a thread waiting on a string. The notifying thread do not have any idea who the waiting guy is and they do not share any common object either other than the string. I want to send back some information to the waiting thread when notifying it. And there are multiple thread-couples like this. How can I do it. I could use a hashmap to store the String object and the waiting thread. The notifier first looks up the waiting thread and sets the response and then notifies it. But this doesn't look very elegant. Anything in concurrent api's to take care of this? Or maybe I have missed on a very simple solution?
Biblio

Well, they share the string. In fact the notifier has another instance of the string and then I am calling intern on that to get the same instance as is with the waiting thread. String is the only object I can share in this case without maintaining a map on my side (vm does that for me). And I do not want to use any map. Can I use something like an exchanger? But again both the threads can't share the same exchanger either.
The code looks like
in Thread A -->
"someString".wait()
in Thread B -->
get "someString" contents from somewhere
some other data to be sent to the waiting thread
"someString".intern().notify()

Opening oracle form from workflow notification asks for responsibility.

Hello All,
I am trying to open serach service request form from workflow notification.
For that I have added below.
1) created Form type of WF attribute and attached it to message. Value of this attribute is
CSXSRISV:REQUEST_ID=&REQUEST_ID.
2) So the link apears in the notification but when I form session opens it brings up the responsibility selection screen, If I select Customer Support resp and click on OK, service request get queried properly.
So everthing is working fine, only issue is when oracle form opens it asks for the responsibility to select from selection screen.
How can I remove this responsibility selection screen?
Do I need to pass any parameter or something like that?

Thanks for the reply.
I have added CSXSRISV function i.e Find Service Request to the appropriate menu which is attached to the responsibility and opened the form from newly sent notification. Still no luck. Still it is asking me for resp to choose.
Can you suggest me any other workaround?
How to see whether workflow worklist is available to customer support resp?

Notification is sent to a Role, but Action History display one member only

We have created an approval notification for HR which is sent to a Role. The role has 3 members. The email is successfully sent to the 3 members of the role (expand role is checked). However, on the Action History of the Notification Details, it shows that the submit action to was for 1 member of the role. This is misleading as actually, action is for the role (and the 3 member of the role). We would like the information here to be factual. Show that that the action was submitted for the role or show everyone who received the notification. Can that be done?
Thanks.

Any light on this ?

Send Notification when First Response Date is set

I am looking for a way to replace a SCSM workflow with an Orchestrator runbook. We want an email sent to the Affected User when the First Response date is set by either the Primary Owner or the Assigned TO User. I am not able to figure out a good way
to present / compare the data..
Thoughts?
Cheers!

A runbook has to recognize that a user who sets the first response date is exactly a primary owner or assigned analyst. But there's no field like 'First Response Date is set By'. But you can create one by yourself and the easiest way to
populate it is using a custom console task. You could create the task with PowerShell, for instance. Take a look
here.

Notification sent to all users in a role when some of them responded in first reminde

Hi,
We have a workflow using (voteforresult, standard voting method) sending notifications to users via role. Sends first notification times out sends second one. If some users responded to notification in first email it still sends email to all users second time. Is it not suppose to send email only to
users who hasn't responded.
Example: ROLE01 has USER01, USER02, USER03. Sends email to all three, USER01 responds
after first timeout cancellation is sent to USER02 & USER03 and new notification (second one)
to all three even though USER01 has responded.
thanks,
Sridhar.

Hi Mark,
Thanks very much for response.
Does post notification function also resolves who has responded first time in a role and sends
notification only to others. Like in the example below
Example: ROLE01 has USER01, USER02, USER03. Sends email to all three, USER01 responds,
after first timeout cancellation is sent to USER02 & USER03 and second notification
to all three even though USER01 has responded. What we are looking for is sending
second notification only to USER02, USER03 who has not responded first time.
If there is a standard package or an example which i can look at would of great help.
thanks again,
Sridhar.
See the Workflow Guide on Post Notification Functions:
You can associate a post-notification function with a notification activity. The Workflow Engine executes the post-notification function in response to an update of the notification's state after the notification is delivered. For example, you can specify a post-notification function that executes when the notification recipient forwards or transfers the notification. The post-notification function could perform back-end logic to either validate the legitimacy of the forward/transfer or execute some other supporting logic.
If a notification activity times out, the Workflow Engine runs the post-notification function for the activity in TIMEOUT mode. For a Voting activity, the TIMEOUT mode logic should identify how to tally the votes received up until the timeout.

Is it possible, I can validate the notification response

Hi,
Is it possible, we can force a user to enter a value before approving the notification . Because one of our workflow process required a value from the approver. This notification contains 3 responses ( 1 Approve, 2 Partially Approve, 3 Reject). In the case of partially approve I want partially approved amount from the approver.
How I can validate amount entered or not, before clicking the partially approved response button in the workflow notification.
With Regards
Satheesh Kumar

Hi,
You can derive the button by looking at the response from the notification. the WF_ENGINE.CONTEXT_NID variable will tell you the notification ID that is being responded to, and you can derive the response from there:
v_response := wf_notification.GetAttrText(wf_engine.context_nid,'RESULT');

Role Notification only going to FIRST person in role

Hey guys...
We just created a new environment and migrated our entire application over to the new database. Now, when any notification is sent to a role, it is only going to the first person associated to that role, regardless of how many people are in that role. I did a query on WF_USER_ROLES and I see that there are indeed multiple people there. I verified that the role name is being properly populated in the attribute that I am calling. I also verified that the Expand Roles check box is activated on the notification message itself. The notification that is being received looks great, but its just not getting to all recipients. This was working fine in our development envirionment as of the same day we did the cutover.
Has anyone run into this type of problem before and can anyone provide some insight on ideas to try? I am troubleshooting it all the way up to when the notification is kicked off and everything looks great. Any clues?????

Yes...When I add a message and save, it correctly appears in the WF_MESSAGES table in the correct database, so I know that I am pointing to the right place.
My problem doesnt seem to be with creating and populating the ad hoc role itself. I can query the role and see all of the people who are supposed to be there are indeed there. The problem is when the notification is processed, it is only recognizing the first person in the role and only sending notification to that person. For that first person, the notification is processing perfectly. It is just not sending the notification to the other people in the role. No errors are received.
Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!

Notification with exapnd role check box - get feedback from all users

Hi ,
I have to implement the following Case :-
Send a Notification to an AD hoc Role consisting of many users , wait for a Yes/No Result from each User and an additiona comment ,
register the yes / no reply + coment of each individual user on a follow up table .
After all users have replied , Proceed to next activity where I'll check the results on the Follow up table .
I Think this could be implemented using the Expand Role check box on the Notifification but I do not know how to exactly implemet it .
Thanks

Regarding long mp3 bookmarks. (my experience with 9780).
I had the requirement that when playing long MP3s (audiobook/podcast) I don't loose my place within the MP3. I am able to update the list of MP3s without loosing my place in the currently playing one. I don't loose my place when connecting the BB to a PC with the USB cable and using USB synch to copy files to the SDCard.
All of these are accomplished by playing MP3s via File Manager/Play Folder feature.
If you use play lists or other methods directly through the BB media player, you will loose your place as soon as you switch off the BB, escape the player, or connect the USB cable.
If instead you use the file browser to go to the folder with the MP3s you wish to play (I have all my podcasts in one folder that I update manually) and select "Play Folder" from the context menu, the media player will open.
If you escape the media player that is opened as per above, the last point in the played MP3 is remembered. This even survives any synchronization I do to the folder via USB or a soft power reset (ALT CAPS DEL). It remembers the spot in multiple MP3s to boot.
This is a great handy feature. I'm glad it works with the 9780/OS6.
