PB40 Applicant Actions Menu

Hi All,
I would like to know that besides configuring Menu 40 - Applicant Actions to display actions according to defined user groups, is it possible to create a new menu ie, Menu 41 instead to display the new actions for different users. I am able to create Menu 41, but in SPRO, it doesn't seem possible to redefine the Action Menu to it.
Thanks.

Hi,
Try this
SPRO -> Personnel Management -> Recruitment -> Dialog Controls -> Change Action Menu
You can customize the action menu here, if your customized actions are not being displayed in PB40.
you can also create different action menus here to be assigned to different users through SU01.
Hope it helps !!
Regards,
Bhavna

Hi,
There are no BAPIs/RFCs to create Infotypes directly. You have to create a custom wrapper RFC around the std function module HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION to meet your requirements. This function module enables you to maintain master data for employees and applicants. You can transfer one data record ie one infotype record per employee at a time. In your case it would be 3 function calls per each employee. All validation checks take place that would take place in the individual maintenance screens in the dialog. If necessary, the module returns an error message. The error messages are the same as the error messages in the dialog, that is, the individual maintenance screen error messages are transferred rather than interpreted by this module.

I have a issue in pb40.
In pb40 Apllicant actions i have a action Prepare for Hiring.After i execute I need to get '06' as default in Status reason field.
Kindly give suggestions.

You mean to say that when you choose prepare for hiring action and run automatically you want to see 06 in status reason field.
is it true?
If yes you have two option
1) Dynamic action
2) User exit
you can go either way.

"Type mismatch" error in IE7/8 when using custom Actions Menu Image

Hi all,
in APEX 4.2: when using a custom image in the "Actions Menu Image" attribute in an interactive report, I get a "Type mismatch" error in IE7/8 when refreshing the report through PPR (filtering, sorting, paginating etc.). When I leave the "Actions Menu Image" field empty, everything works fine. The error doesn't seem to happen in IE9 (unless using compatibility mode), or in any non-IE browser.
I've been able to reproduce the issue in an application on apex.oracle.com:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=69347:1
Some debugging seems to indicate that the following line in widget.interactiveReport.js is the culprit:
lTemp.parentNode.replaceChild($x('apexir_WORKSHEET'), lTemp);Does anybody know if this is a known issue, or if there is some workaround?
Thanks,
Tobias

Hi,
Great solution Paul! It cost me a while before I found out the Action Menu Image was causing my interactive reports to stop refreshing in IE10 and not other browsers. Your solution works great, I've implemented it with a few minor adjustments:
- Put the css in report template (for some reason it didn't work in our own application stylesheet)
- replace 'url("/c/action_dropdown.gif")' with 'url("&APP_IMAGE_PREFIX./<path_to_image>")'
- place one dynamic action on page 0: after refresh of '#apexir_DATA_PANEL' , set event scope to "Dynamic".
- Let the Dynamic action also fire on page load.
- To make sure the dynamic action only works for pages with an interactive report add condition of type 'Exists' with expression:
select 1
from   dual
where :APP_PAGE_ID in (select page_id
                                        from   apex_application_page_ir
                                        where application_id = :APP_ID

Query on Applicant Actions

We are implementing both Recruitment & PA modules for the customer. In the Recruitment module, the customer wishes to enter the applicant data into the system only after the initial shortlisting. What are the typical infotypes that are included in the infogroup for Applicant action? As far as I see, Persoal Data, Addresses, Qualification, Previous Employment are the important ones. Are there any more?
Also, when the applicant is converted to an employee (thru Hiring action), these infotypes should not appear in PA40. How is this integration acheived? Through which integration switch?
-Shambvi

May be, I did not explain my query properly. The customer wishes to enter some basic information about the applicant in the Recruitment module. The information typically available at the stage of recruitment are Personal Data (name, address, DOB), Previous Employment Details (like earlier companies, where he worked, along with the duration & designation etc.). Also, when the customer wishes to "Offer" the job to the applicant (if he is selected), they can enter the organizational Assignment data like, position, personnel area/subarea & employee group/subgroup. My first query is, how is this data entered into the system? Which transaction code? Also, how do we set up the Action (infogroup etc.)? Is it through Applicant Actions?
Now, if the "Offered" applicant joins the company, then the available applicant info should be transferred to the PA module, so that he becomes "Hired" now. During this process, the applicant, who becomes an employee now, should be assigned a personnel number (internally or externally, depending on the configuration). Also, the user provides the Joining Date. How is this transfer done?
Once "Applicant to Employee" transfer is done, should I use PA30 to update the remaining infotypes configured in the Hiring Action?
Hope I am more clear with my query now.

Interactive Report - Add a 'custom' Action Menu Item

Hi,
I'm wondering if it is possible to add 'custom' Action menu items to an interactive report?
I have a situation where I want to use all the richness that an interactive report gives with it's out of the box functionality, then if a download is selected I need to be able to set a 'lock' on the currently selected records set before the records are downloaded.
I've had a good look around the forum and various other sites and I can't seem to find anything in this area. The nearest I can find is on the OBD tutorials the ability to add a 'Reset' button.
I know how to create custom download functionality, to which I could add the required record locking functionality and in turn link to a button, but what I don't know how to do is pull out the selection variables from the Interactive Report in order to construct my select query.
Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree and there's a better way if so any suggestions would be most welcome.
Many thanks in advance Peter..

Where is the action menu in Pages?

Where is the action menu in Pagess? The "accepting changes" help says its all in the "Action Menu" but nothing is labled as the "action menu" Where is it?

Simio,
I must confess, I didn't research the answer very well before my first response. It turns out that in the current version of the English edition of Pages User Guide, the phrase "Action Menu" appears 20 times. And to think I don't recall ever seeing it before.
My reading of the guide indicates that the "gear" icon with a disclosure triangle is an Action Menu. They are everywhere, in many contexts besides Tracking, and I always thought of them as the "gear" menu. Dale's graphic gets you close, but his capture isn't quite wide enough to catch the Action Menu icon. It's here:
And, it looks like this after clicking the disclosure triangle:

Can Actions Menu of Interactive Reports work with Custom Authentication?

My testing is leading my to believe that Actions Menu do not work with Custom Authentication (but only work with APEX Authentication) in APEX 3.1.2? If that's true then is there a work around to this?
Just to clarify, I've posted/asked this question twice before:
1) Re: Actions Menu in Interactive Reports does not sort, filter, select cols etc
2) Interactive Report actions don't work for users (i.e. for non-developers)
But I've come to believe this is the main problem. I just don't know how to resolve/work around this?
Thanks for any help.

I haven't setup a sample because my custom authentication is using LDAP authentication. I'm not sure how I can replicate that on the samples server?
I'm using LDAP authentication with a Page Sentry function. My further testing reveals that the Page Sentry function is setting the APEX variable user to NULL (ie blank) whenever there's any code in the Page Sentry function box. PL/SQL code as simple as
BEGIN return TRUE; END;
in the Page Sentry function box sets the "user" is set to <null>. When the Page sentry function box is left empty (no code specified) it sets the "user" properly after authentication against the specified LDAP directory.
What all this has to do with Interactive Reports...
It seems like when the user is NULL it messes-up Interactive Reports that are stored in the flows database. Although it shows the default report properly, but no runtime interactive actions (filtering, sorting, column break, etc.) work.
Can someone please correct or confirm this?
Thanks.

Action menu background is clear.

Hello,
Someone using one of my applications sent a screenshot of the Actions menu of a Interactive Report. The background of the menu that drops down is clear (no background color) so you can see the report through it. They are using IE.
Has anyone seen this or have any suggestions on how to make the background white? I can't replicate it in FF or IE.
The theme is Builder Blue.
thanks,
Matt

No resolution mentioned yet, but switching to another theme may be a possible workaround.

Difference in action menu , infotype menu, actions

can somebody tell me difference in these three with screen shots.
Kind regards,
Shruti

Actions - YOu organisation will have certain events which will be performed during the employees life term in that company, such as Hiring, Transfer, promotion etc. These u will configure in PM--> PA --> Customising procedure --> Actions > setup personnel actions. After u configure actions, you will configure the infotype menu, i.e the infotypes you need to maintain for each actions. For eg: for Hiring you wil definitly need IT00, 01, 02 etc..and these infotypes will be executed in a sequence. So you wil create an infogroup and assign these infogroups to actions. PM> PA --> Customising procedure --> Actions --> Define Infogroups. These infogroups will be define in IGMOD.
Infotype Menu - This is what you will configure for PA30. For each tabs such as "Basic Employee data", Contract Data, Planning data, you wil decide what infotypes should be visible under it. Path: PM--> PA -->Customising procedure --> Infotype menu
Action menu - This is the menu which will get displayed in pa40 screen. The actions you configure for your enterprise wil be displayed here.
Note: the reference user group no. which you will maintain for action menu and infotype menu will have to be given in the UGR in User parameter
