OAF page in the workflow notification

Hi,
I have a custom OAF page and a custom workflow. When the page is submitted, i am invoking the workflow. I was just wondering if i can put the page screen shot in the workflow notification so that the users doesn't have to worry about logging back into the page to check the details. Is there any option?
Thanks

Hi,
Including the custom page in the notification is fine. But what i find was generally we will call workflow to send messages to the other person based on the business requirement at that time inclusion of page in notification may not be good.

Problem with the Workflow Notification Mailer

Hi Community,
Recently we have just installed the E-Business Suite release 12.0.4 from e-delivery.oracle.com for Linux x86-64 using the VISION Demo database, in order to see and test the release for a future upgrade of our Production environment.
The installation was succesful and we setting up the Workflow Notification Mailer with the data of our SMTP server in order to outbound notifications to that server.
Now, In order to continue testing that instance, we have just executed the scripts to stop de APPS tier and to start the APPS tier, and it seems that the workflow notification mailer can not establish network connection with the e-mail server (Exchange server) after starting the APPS tier.
The Linux server has defined in its hosts file the Exchange e-mail server, and from operating system, we can establish a ping connection.
Any help will be appreciated.
Luis.

Hi,
I had the same issue and I found that Oracle Workflow does not attach files. The solution is to create a table with blob, clob, ordsys, etc data types and reference to the file from a notification and a message.
I did an interface with java to read the document, and then put the link in the oracle workflow message. The link opened the file.
So, for any workflow development is recomended to use your own Entity-Relation Model, including the process number and the files attached to that process.

Regarding the workflow notification page customization

Hello Everyone...
I am new to Oracle OAF...
Customize the Oracle Workflow Notifications page (for Open Notifications) by using OA Framework Customization (to display more details on the Notification)
what is solution for this component?
could someone help me out in this task plz...

You need to check how the notifications are getting created. Please download the workflow from instance and check the logic of the notification creation. That should give ideas on customizations involved.

OAF document link in workflow notifications

Hi
I am trying to attach an OAF page I developed into a custom workflow's notification. I defined a new attribute with document type and put JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=XXRM_ONAY_TALEP_GUNCELLEME as the value where XXRM_ONAY_TALEP_GUNCELLEME is my sswa jsp function's name.
Then I put this new attribute into message body, with the option "Attach Content" selected. However when the notification arrives to the recipient, instead of an attachment link or the OAF page itself, there is only a text :
"Attribute BOLMUDUYDOC refers to Framework Region JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=XXRM_ONAY_TALEP_GUNCELLEME"
As this is an urgent matter, any help to resolve the issue will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Özgür

I managed to get this link working by setting up a message attribute of type URL.
I selected the 'Attach Content' flag, and set the value to JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/{path to xml file from $JAVA_TOP}
Cheers,

How to attach a file fin the middle tier in the workflow notification

2) From workflow notification I need to read that file (invoice_99.pdf) and
open it from the notification when user click on it
can you please let me know is there any way to handle this

Thiru,
This is not the right forum for this.
Btw, I have done exactly same requirement several times and it's easy to do.
1)Create a Document Attribute and specify to attach it to the notif msg.
2)Create a PL/SQL function activity in workflow
3)In the PL/SQL proc, Load the file using dbms_lob into a LOB and set the attribute using
wf_engine.SetItemAttrText(itemtype      => itemType
,itemkey      => itemkey
,aname      => 'SRQ_REPORT'
,avalue           => 'PLSQLCLOB:xxx_gbl_wf.get_pdf_quote/'||v_report_request_id||':'||v_qot_number);
Hope this helps

Issue:
My development database is located on remoute server and it takes about 10 min to run simple OAF page (it works correct then).
But after modification of the page when I run it again, JDeveloper always opens new session (instead of using existed one) because of this error:

So I have to wait again 10 min to see the changes :((
If you have any experience regarding this issue I will appreciate you very much for help.

Kumar,
Ftping the PG.xml to mds folder will not help the page to goto MDS directory
You have to import the file using xmlimporter
I understand you have done the import, but it is not success.
Could you please post what is the script you used to import the PG.xml
and once you run what was the output you have got.
May be you can refer the URL for the scripts

OAF Page in Workflow

Hello Everyone,
I did the following to call the OAF Page in the workflow notification. I see the region in created in the workflow notification but the VO is not getting executed i guess, so i don't see any values in that region.
1) Created a Region and in the processRequest, i did the following
String p_id = pageContext.getParameter("doc_id");
pageContext.putAttrDialogMessage(webBean,new OAException("param value is "+p_id));
// Serializable s1[] = {p_id};
OAApplicationModule oaappl = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
OAViewObject oaview = (OAViewObject)oaappl.findViewObject("TestVO");
oaview.reset();
oaview.setWhereClauseParams(null);
oaview.setWhereClauseParam(0,p_id);
oaview.executeQuery();
2) I created a Function in the application which calls the region as follows:
=OA.jsp?page=/xxx/oracle/apps/xxxhr/selfservice/testworkflow/webui/TestWorkflowRN
3) In the workflow, i defined an attribute and of type document and in the value property, i have given the following:
JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=TEST_WORKFLOW_FUN&doc_id=-&P_SR_DOC_NO-
4) When the workflow is being called, i am giving a value for the attribute P_SR_DOC_NO.
I see the region in the notification but no values in it. The VO is not executing. Any suggestion would really help me.
Thank you
Akhil

Link to OAF page from workflow notification

I am trying to give a link in a workflow notification to the customer details page in R12. I decompiled the Controller classes of the customer pages to get the parameters that the page needs.
The page I am trying to access is defined as a function , AR_CUS_OVR with webhtml call :
OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/ar/cusstd/ovrview/webui/ArCusOvrPG&OAFunc=AR_CUS_OVR
I got the url for this page using the following function :
FND_RUN_FUNCTION.GET_RUN_FUNCTION_URL
(25779,660,21623,null,'HzPuiPartyId=32551,cusType=ORGANIZATION,HzPuiSubjectPartyType=ORGANIZATION')
When i paste this URL in the browser, if I am not already logged in , I am directed to the login page and then I get an error :
You have insufficient privileges for the current operation. Please contact your System Administrator.
If i am logged in, i directly get the above error.
I searched the DB to see where this message is thrown but did not find any match. It's probably thrown from some OAF page.
The function is attached to the menu and my user has the required responsibility. I can access the page if i login and navigate to the page.
It's probably the URL , but I am not able to lay a finger on the problem. Please let me know if I am missing something here.
Does anyone know when this error is raised.
thanks,
Satya

I was trying to access the page by pasting the link directly in the browser. I guess that's why it was throwing the indufficient privileges error.
If I click the link from the notification, it tries to bring up the page. But throws a sql exception about invalid number.
I checked the controller code in ArCusOvrCO.java. If the parameter cusType is null, the controlller invokes a method to get custType by calling amethod in the AM which executes a sql statement, SELECT party_type from HZ_PARTIES where party_id = : 1
This parameter HzPuiPartyId is used for this. It looks like all the parameters are passed as null even though I am passing them .
Is the following way the right way of passing multiple parameters to the function :
FND_RUN_FUNCTION.GET_RUN_FUNCTION_URL. I am just passing a comma separated list.
'HzPuiPartyId=24553,cusType=ORGANIZATION,HzPuiSubjectPartyType=ORGANIZATION,HzPuiPartyName=EOM40,HzPuiObjectPartyType=ORGANIZATION,HzPuiObjectPartyId=24553'
thanks,

Sending Workflow notification with OAF page link through PL/SQL

Hi Workflow Experts
I have a requirement where I want to send a FYI notification to a user.
And I have to add a link to my OAF screen in this workflow notification.
Please let me know if i have to create a workflow for this or can this be done by calling some workflow api.
Thanks in advance
Navneet
Edited by: Navneet01 on Feb 20, 2013 10:59 PM

Try by defining the message attribute holding the link to the framework region. Then, once the notification has been created (sent) call WF_NOTIFICATIONS.SetAttrText to set the value of the region in that attribute value.

How can i use AME for the new OAF page.

Dear all,
I have developed a new OAF page and registered under Employee Self Service.
How can i use AME for the approval process.
Appreciate your ideas?
zamora

I will try to answer based on my experience of working with iProcurement and AME. It depends on how you want to make a call to AME , directly from OAF Page or from Workflow and your requirement. You didn't specify what you want to show the users on OAF Page and your business requirement.
Before calling AME Engine from the OAF page or workflow, I guess you did already setup AME Transaction Type and it's Approval Groups, Conditions, Action Types and Rules. Do some testing from AME Business Analyst Test Workbench. Please note that, AME provides lot of PL/SQL API's that you have to call from your programs (java or workflow pl/sql)
Let's look at the workflow and putting an OAF Page as notification.
As Sameer said, you have kick-off workflow process from PR of CO and with in the workflow function, you make a call to AME Engine API's with the AME Transaction ID. This transactionId belongs to the AME Transsaction Type that you setup. Based on the rules setup, AME Engine generates list of approvers/approver and stores them AME Tables for that transactionId. Then, it sends a notification to the approver.
In the workflow, where that notification is defined, in the message body you have to put an attribute(&XX_WF_FWK_RN) of type document/send. And this attribute will have the constant JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=XX_FUNC&paramId=-&DOCUMENT_ID-. This function is SSWA Jsp function that makes a web html call to your OAF Region.
If your requirement is to just show the list of approvers on the OAF Page, you may have to call AME API diectly passing your AME TrasnactionId with other parameters. Then AME generates list of approvers and stores them in AME tables with each approver status. You can pickup those approvers using VO and show them on OAF Page.
Hope this gives some idea.

No data found for region error on Workflow notification page

Hi !
For workflow, I have created a Non Form Function in Oracle Applications and linked the region to display in the notification. This region's type is StackLayout.
I created an attribute of type Document and assigned it the value in the form
JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?OAFunc=WF_FUNC
then I added this attribute in the notification message attribute with the Source as Send and Frame Traget as Full Window. Now when the workflow starts, the region does not populate and error shows that there is no data found for this region.
Am I doing something wrong? Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
We have a unique problem.....for timecard approval notification the HXC_TIMECARD form function is calling embedded Timecard region in the workflow notification.....in the HTML call the AprvNtfRN is called as shown below.
OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/hxc/selfservice/approval/webui/AprvNtfRN&akRegionApplicationId=809
Now the issue is that the email displays uneven format i..e timecard details like project and task name are vertical instead of horizontal.
Is there a way to code HTML in AprvNtfRN so that the format is obtained as desired?
