The only way you are going to be able to do this is by migrating Alerts to BI Publisher. I've done this recently and I'm starting to document the process here http://oracleapps.smythe.net.au/?q=node/36

  • Sending Attachments using Oracle Alerts

    Hi All,
    I am working on Oracle Alerts. I have to send an output of the report to the client, is it possible to send using Oracle Alerts.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Venky.

    Hi,
    To send attachments using Oracle Alert, you can follow below mentioned steps:
    1) While defining Oracle alert Action, Select 'Action Level' as 'Summary'
    2) In Action Details, select 'Action Type' as 'Operating System Script'
    3) Select 'Text' radio button
    4) Write following code : uuencode <Name of the file along with the path> <Name of the attachment in the mail>|mailx -c &cc_mail_id,&to_mail_id -s "<Subject of the Mailer>" &to_mail_id.
    5) You can use mail or sendmail command also instead of mailx command.
    6) Save Alert details
    Thanks and regards,

  • Sending Email by Oracle Alert when no rows returned

    Hello All,
    I am having one problem.
    In the Oracle Alert i wrote one query which is returing 0 rows.
    But sometimes it will returns some rows.
    And my requirement is that when this query doesn't return any rows , i want to send one email to user that there is no data
    and if the data is present then i have to send the data.
    But currently there is no data so i made one Oracle Alert and when i am running that Alert then it is showing me a one message and mail doesn't sent
    Oracle Alert did not perform the summary action "My Test Alert" because no exceptions were returned for this action set.
    Please Suggest
    Thanks & Regards

    Write a second alert that fires near about the same time.
    select 'send email'
    from dual
    where 0 = (select count(1) from your_table)
    This alert will send a "no rows found" email.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to send attachments in oracle workflow?

    i want to send the attachment in the notifiaction mail and i am using workflow 2.6.1.5.2 .kindly help asap.
    thanks.

    Hello,
    Why don't you use the standard processing for PO output, there is a standard way to send po by mail as attachment.
    Anyway if you need to link it with a workflow, you cannot use the "send mail" task from workflow builder. This kind of operation just can send notification withount attachment.
    To send the po as attachment, you need to create your own task and method in a BOR object. I suggest you to start from the standard prosessing (CL_PD_PO_PROCESSING_BBP, method PROCESS_BBP_PO_MAI).

  • How send attachments to mail using oracle alerts

    Hi All,
    I am working on Oracle Alerts in oracle applications. how to send attachment to mail.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Reddy.
    Edited by: user9540785 on Mar 22, 2009 4:48 AM

    As a workaround, you can kick start a custom workflow in actions rather than sending mail. In that custom workflow you can send attachments as part of the notification to the respective recipients.

  • Sending mails with attachments using oracle 8i

    Hi,
    Could anybody please send a sample code for sending mails
    with attachments using oracle 8i.
    Thanks in advance

    For oracle8i there is an example package from OTN:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/Utl_Smtp_Sample.html
    You have to re-write the package a bit to work it with BLOBs instead of RAW attachments, but that should be no problem

  • Oracle alerts are not sending mails after applying 11i ATG RUP5

    Hi,
    we recently aplied 11i ATG RUP5 on our 11.5.10.2 instance..once it is applied, we stopped getting mails from Oracle Alerts...
    what might be the problem pls

  • Oracle Alert doesn't send the email

    Hi all,
    I have created an Oracle Alert which executes in an "Event Mode" not "periodically". The event triggers when I modified ( insert or update ) the table po_vendors.
    I set all of the things in Oracle Alert that I need. However when I execute an update in sql-plus session, nothing happened. The email didn't arrive.
    Do I have to say something to the DBA in order to check de email service in Linux?.
    How can I test different step in order to find which is the real problem ?.
    I activated "Periodic Alert Scheduler" this is not the problem.
    I have read many papers in metalink, but I don't find the solution.
    I have 11.5.8 OF version.
    I appreciate so mucho your help.
    Regards,
    Mariano.-

    Hi Hussein,
    I read the notes that you sent me. They were usefull. I tasted with a ¨mail command¨ in Unix Environment and I realized that there was a problem in the setup configuration.
    I reported the issue to the dba. He told me that they use utl_smtp function in a package, and they don´t configure de server were the Oracle was installed and they won´t do it in the future.
    The question is...Can I trigger a pl-sql function inside of the Alert in order to avoid using a database trigger ? Is it possible ?.
    Sourdoughwannab :
    Where Can I see the history alert ?.

  • How to configure oracle alerts to use Workflow mailer?

    Hello Guys:
    We were trying to setup oracle alerts using workflow mailer. I have created a dedicated mailer for handling oracle alerts related mail.
    Here is what I need to clarify:
    1. Having setup a new mailer for Oracle alert do I have to still configure the Options in Oracle Alerts. This is where you choose which type of mail u want to use ( like Unix mail,Windows NT mail )
    2.How do I tell oracle alert to use the new mailer that I created exclusively for this? While creating the mailer at some point I remember putting ALR in configuration form.
    I am on 11.5.10 CU2. I am on 11i.ATG_PF.H
    Regards,
    Bala

    Hi Hussain:
    Based on the note I realised that my oracle alerts will user unix sendmail. But then If u go to " Oracle Alert Options "
    -- > Mail systems -- I check Unix send mail
    -- > Mail server options ( Do I have to fill this section? )
    My guess is that the send mail will post the email to a IMAP account ( I created oraclealert account ) and IMAP account will push the alert email to Recipient
    Mail Database/Server Name --- imap.mydomain.com
    Mail Priority --- Normal
    Accounts
    Application Installation username Password
    Blank ** Blank ** oraclealert pwd
    Blank ** Blank ** oraclealert pwd
    ** - It wont allow me to choose an application.
    Is there a simple test to make sure that my oracle alert is working or not? I appreciate your help.
    Regards,
    Bala

    If I try and send file as attachments from the tmp directory, then everything works ok, but if I try to send the same file from any other directory, then it doesn't work. Can anyone help? Is there something wrong with the code, I'm not aware of anything that would make it directory specfic. Permissions are the same on /tmp as the new directory /NRS/Data/SystemX which I'm trying to send the file from now.

    well
    if u see the end of ur mail it shows the attachment dir there in which u have specified the address..why don't u do a change there or better have some in parameteres in the procedure for it..that would help in choosing the attachment directory on users wish?
    hope i am getting the problem right..if not kindly correct me in understanding the problem.
    thanX.
