URL in workflow notification

Hello,
I have a requirement of putting a URL link in one of the seeded oracle WF notification. I have completed all the required steps i.e. creating a attribute of type URL, attaching the attribute to the message, passing the URL to the URL attribute etc. All works fine i.e. I get the notification with the URL link. The only issue I am facing is that the apps server details precedes with URL.
Fo example: I am passing the URL www.google.com and want to see that the notification should have this link. When the user clicks on the URL link a new window should open with the URL www.google.com. Instead what us happening is the new window is opening with the following URL:
http://<APPS_SERVER_NAME>:8000/pls/OASUP/www.google.com which results in the page cannot be displayed error.
I appreciate if anyone out there could let me know on how to bypass the Server details with the www.google.com.

Instead of just putting www.google.com, put http://www.google.com (add http:// before the address). Then it will not prefix the server name.

Hyperlink/URL in workflow notification

Hi,
I am modifying the Sales Order workflow. The requirement is that a link/url should be provided in the message that should allow user to open sales order directly from the message.
Please advise on how can we have this functionality through workflow message. I am on 11.5.10
when I use http://url:3333/OA.jsp?OAFunc=ONT_OEXOEORD&HEADER_ID=786697
in a browser, I could open the sales order form but the order number is not queried which I want to happen automatically.
Thanks in advance for all the help and effort.

Do you know of any standard functionality that opens the Sales Order form and automatically queries a Sales Order? If not, then the form may not provide that functionality. If there is, then you will need to work through the logic in the form to work out how to call the function to query the order.

How can I include a Credit Mgmt Case Folder URL in a workflow notification?

I have a requirement to add a URL to a workflow notification, which is easy enough. The issue I am having is that I am not able to create a URL that successfully opens the Credit Management Case Folder that is specified in the worflow notification.
I am only able to get the URL to launch the following successfully: http://<ce:0000>/OA_HTML/RF.jsp?function_id=16351&resp_id=23916&resp_appl_id=222&security_group_id=0&lang_code=US
Has anyone else solved this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

We are using eBusiness Suite 11.5.10.2, 10g database
I created a woflow attribute of type URL.
Name: Case Folder Link
Frame Target: New Window
Value: http://<instance>/OA_HTML/RF.jsp?function_id=16351&resp_id=23916&resp_appl_id=222&security_group_id=0&lang_code=US
I then added the following line to add the URL attribute to the HTML message body.
Case Folder Link : &CASE_FOLDER_LINK
When using the link above I don't get any error message. However when I try to change the URL to a specific case folder URL (Note this URL should change depending on the Case Folder # provided in the notification message.):
http://<instance>/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?_rc=ARCMANALYSISDATACRDSUMMARYPAGE&_ri=222&retainAM=Y&cmSubRegion=PARTYREGION&cmPartyId=%7B!!k5vkXUpUCWxLhSZj.uqBHQ%7D&cmCustAccountId=%7B!!lBrDTc7.B3E6QA-16tJNIw%7D&cmSiteUseId=%7B!!7jcW1qvgKOeEFCpFYCanSA%7D&OAHP=ARCMMENUAPPLICATION&OASF=ARCMANALYSISDATACRDSUMMARY&_ti=1687529995&oapc=9&oas=GiXPV8nU9RQ6Ej53zIESsw..

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,

Unable to display SSHR Review Page when I click on a URL in a Notification

Hi,
We have a requirement to display the Review Page of the Employee Self Service Manage Payroll Payments function in a notification. I have copied the original seeded workflow process and added the notification step. However, when the notification is generated and the link to view the Review page is clicked, we are receiving an error. Why is this? Is this a bug? We have defined the function and workflow attributes correctly.
The message has an attribute called 'Click here to view bank account details'. That attribute has a value of :
JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?akRegionCode=PAY_PAYMENTS_REVIEW_SS&akRegionApplicationId=800&OAFunc= XXTEST_PAY_EMP_PAYMENTS&NtfId=-&#NID-&retainAM=Y
When I click on the URL in the notification the error page says *'ERROR: Cannot Display Page'* and has the following url in the address bar:
https://erp1.theglobalfund.org/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?akRegionCode=PAY_PAYMENTS_REVIEW_SS&akRegionApplicationId=800&OAFunc=%20XXTEST_PAY_EMP_PAYMENTS&NtfId=244856&retainAM=Y&dbc=DTGFUI&transactionid=801240504&oapc=24&oas=s1HtmV0oSaQRqDRTjyQ3fg..
Can somebody please advise. I also have a .doc with full details of setup done but cannot see how to attach it to this thread message.
Thanks,
Mark.

No, that was not the answer. Yes I had a space in the URL, but when I removed the space I still get the same error:
Error: Cannot Display Page
You cannot complete this task because one of the following events caused a loss of page data:
Your login session has expired.
A system failure has occurred.
This is the URL in the window:
https://erp1.theglobalfund.org/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?akRegionCode=PAY_PAYMENTS_REVIEW_SS&akRegionApplicationId=800&OAFunc=XXTEST_PAY_EMP_PAYMENTS&NtfId=250834&retainAM=Y&dbc=DTGFUI&transactionid=757523217&oapc=27&oas=0W2JZORcKVD83Md4LxaXsQ..
NOTE: When I have the attribute value as the following (with no akRegionCode parameter) the Manage Payroll Payments screen opens in a new window...just not the review page of that function :
JSP:/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?&akRegionApplicationId=800&OAFunc=XXTEST_PAY_EMP_PAYMENTS&NtfId=-&#NID-&retainAM=Y
So it seems to be something to do with displaying that region parameter and value : akRegionCode=PAY_PAYMENTS_REVIEW_SS
Can somebody please help?
Thanks.

Hello Deepika,
I don't know, how to integrate the

<http://www.long-url-here-with-a-line-break-in-the
middle-of-nowhere.com>
Maybe this gives you a quicker help.

Personas and extended workflow notifications

Hi Personas users.
We have gone live with our first Personas business process which is effectively a service desk ticketing system based on PM notifications and equipment records. My users are very happy with the solution but as expected they want more!
I have been asked to setup workflows for the notifications, this is no problem as I can simply use the OOTB notification workflows, however the requirement I have is to employ extended workflow notifications, i.e. send the workflow notifications to Outlook.
After setting this up and messing about with the host URL settings in the extended workflow setup (SWNADMIN) we have managed to get URL link in the email to launch the Personas app within NWBC... however it doesn't find the flavour for the transaction it finds the basic view.
Does anyone else have this setup and managed to get it to work ... if so how?
Many thanks,
Neil

Hi Steve,
I have shortlinks setup for these transactions, they are necessary for deploying Personas flavours via NWBC. Thing is the URLs that end up on the email are generated by SAPs extended notifications function, so the shortlinks aren't really useful here. unless there is a way to get the extedned notifications feature to somehow query the shortlinks table... I suspect this would be custom code.
Something tells me that what I'm after isn't a standard feature, hopefully Sushant or one of the other SAP folks will clarify.
thanks

Displaying OAF Based Workflow notification outside E-Business suite

Hi All,
We have a requirement of displaying a Workflow notification (OA based) on a portal without login into Oracle Applications. I am wondering if this is possible.
The Oracle shipped Workflow notification Page is a Self-Secured page and I tried accessing the function associate to this page using http://..../OA.jsp?OAFunc=...&NtfId=123(the page requires the notification id to be passed as a parameter). This does not work and displays the EBusiness login page.
The requirement is to display the notification without prompting the user to login.
Appreciate any feedback on this.

Check below URL it might help you out.

Push workflow notification in gateway

Hi All,
I want to push workflow notification to external server via Gateway system ,
I have followed some links for push notifications made easy .
Here i need to know , what is the exact report or badi i need to implement for push notifications ?
I have followed the below URL's :
Pushing Notifications Made Easy!!! : Push a Notification
In the above URL , there is a report which will push notification and it's need to be implemented via badi
IF_EX_ADDRESS_UPDATE~ADDRESS3_SAVED.
is the below user exit helpful :
/IWWRK/ES_WF_ITEM_SEL_OB
Pl let me know any badi exists for workflow notifications .

Hi Lokeshwar,
The ADDRESS_UPDATE BAdI used in the Notification blog is just an example where IF_EX_ADDRESS_UPDATE~ADDRESS3_SAVED method was implemented. This is the trigger mechanism used in the blog. Its totally up to the application developer to use a specific notification trigger mechanism as mentioned in the blog. In the blog, the user is subscribed to the entityset - "UserCollection" and change type - "created" which means that the user shall be notified whenever a new user is created.
Now based on your use case and subscription created, you have to choose how to trigger an event for notifying the user. I am sorry but I do not know about user exit /IWWRK/ES_WF_ITEM_SEL_OB.
Hope this helps you.
Best regards,
Aakash

Open forms from Workflow Notification

Hello All,
I understand that we can have a 'Form' type attribute to have a link of the form displayed in the workflow notifications.
And my requirement was to open a particular PO in the forms if the user clicks on the corresponding link in his notifications.
For doing the same, I created a form-type attribute with the following value:
POXPOEPO:PO_HEADER_ID="1234" #RESP_KEY="XXX_PO" #APP_SHORT_NAME="PO"
By clicking this link in the notification, a blank Purchase Order form is opening up. I wanted the actual PO details also to be displayed.
Please suggest what needs to be done for this ?
Thanks,
Sambit

Oracle Purchasing has such feature. Whenever a PO ha to be approved a notification is sent to the buyer with the url to the Purchase Order. Once he clicks on it the HTML Purchase Order page opens and he can hit approve.
So you might want to look at the piece of functionality to achieve the same
Thanks

Does anybody know how to get rid of the 'Return to Worklist' link in workflow notifications? Should I be looking at modifying the workflow template or extending the controller?
Thank you,

Try giving the URL of the form.if this did not solve your issue then try attaching the particular form to the workflow.
Attaching form has been already discussed in this forum. You can check earlier topics.

How to customize SharePoint Foundation 2013 workflow notification emails

We have a SharePoint Foundation 2013 workflow that sends emails when certain criteria are met. We have tried to customize the emails using SharePoint Designer, but the emails that are received are different.
Ho do we configure SharePoint to send the emails formatted as we specified in the workflow?
The emails we receive are all formatted like this:
Subject:
[Company Name Workflow] - [Item] has been assigned to you
Content:
Task assigned by [User Name] on [Date].
To complete this task:
1.   Review [Item].
2.   Perform the specific activities required for this task.
3.   Use the Open this task button to mark the task as completed. (If you cannot update this task, you might not have access to it. Click here to request access.)

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to customize SharePoint Foundation 2013 workflow notification emails.
We’ll need to do a few things to replace SharePoint’s default notification with our own. The first thing we need to do is turn off SharePoint’s default notification. On the Workflow Tasks list, go the Advanced Settings and select
No for Send e-mail when ownership is assigned. Then we need to create workflow to send email.
There is an article for your reference, although it is about the SharePoint 2007, it still works for SharePoint 2013.
Create a Detailed Custom Task Notification with a SharePoint Designer Workflow
