WF notification response preferance

Hi,
In WF mail notification, there are two ways to respond.
Either
1) it gives "Please click here to Respond" link at end ,
OR
2) it gives "Action: Approve Reject Request Information" which basically invokes e-mail client to reply.
Which profile option/setup controls if 1) or 2) will be in mail notifications.
Thanks & Regards.

Finally I was able to find the solution myself :).
Change Open Notification setup in wf mailer TO 'Workflow Open Mail for Outlook Express' FROM 'Workflow Open Mail (Templated)'

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');

Processing E-Mail Notification Responses

Hi,
I have a workflow (2.6.2) that sends e-mails to all the users in a group but only requires a single response to complete the workflow step. Is it possible to identify the individual user that has responded via the links provided in the e-mail notification as we need this information for an audit trail?
Thanks in advance

Hello gusev67
Have you tried with/without custom email notification (SMTP) settings?
Have you checked if the defaut or custom SMTP port has been forwarded to your px12?
Have you checked if your ISP is blocking SMTP ports for your connection?

Notification Responses Don't work with email

All,
a problem I'm struggling with. I have defined a custom workflow in the e-business suite 11.5.10.2 which has a response notification in it. When I respond to the notification through the notifications form in the applications it works fine, but if I respond to the same notification in e-mail I can reply to the notification but and see it in wf_notification in and it looks like the response attribute has the right code associated with it, but....
The status of the notification gets changed to canceled
The outcome becomes Force
The workflow misses out the next few transitions.
Other response notifications are working OK on that database.
Any ideas /suggestions?
thanks
Alan

I seem to have resolved this problem, but not entirely sure how!

Enhanced Apple Push Notification: Response error at provider server...

Hi,
i am working on a project in PHP which requires me to push an alert notification on APNS server. I have used enhanced push notification format. but I am not receiving response as specified by the APNS docs. I am getting response in three digits usually 133, 132, 154, 138, etc. Which I concluded to be Status signs, eg. 133 is 1, 3, 3. but now I have also received 139. so I doubt that my interpretation of response is wrong. But I am not getting where it is wrong. And important thing is though I am receiving these responses Alert is getting pushed and I am receiving notification on my iPhone as well as on iPad.
My code is as follows:
$payload['aps'] = array('alert' => $message, 'badge' => 1, 'sound' => 'default');
$apnsHost = 'gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com';
$apnsPort = 2195; // default port
$apnsCert = 'apns-dev.pem'; // APNS crtificate.
$passPhrase = '';
$streamContext = streamcontextcreate();
streamcontext_setoption($streamContext, 'ssl', 'local_cert', $apnsCert);
streamcontext_setoption($streamContext, 'ssl', 'passphrase', $passPhrase);
try{
$apns = streamsocketclient('ssl://' . $apnsHost . ':' . $apnsPort, $error, $errorString, 60, STREAMCLIENTCONNECT, $streamContext);
if (!$apns) {
print "Failed to connect {$error} {$errorString}\n";
else {
// Sending the payload
$apnsMessage = chr(0) . pack('n', 1) . pack('n', $nid) . pack('n', time() + 604800) . pack('n', 32) . pack('H*', str_replace(' ', '', $alertdevicetoken)) . pack('n', strlen($payload)) . $payload;
echo 'APNS Message: ' . $apnsMessage;
$fwrite = fwrite($apns, $apnsMessage);
echo 'APNS response: ' . $fwrite;
And when this get executed i got the following response printed on the browser:
APNS Message: ��=ŸÂ� òc6–U:õŸŠ ¸Þ ÷Ä‡Ú0ßqšÊzÂífÕnZ�`{"aps":{"alert":"Your EUR\/USD SELL alert price has been reached!","badge":1,"sound":"default"}}APNS response: 139
Can anyone please tell me what does this 139 means here. am doing anything wrong here.

here's
how I do it, hopefully it will help you solve your problem

How to attach files in workflow notification response/reply message

There is a requirement to respond to worklist notification or email notification with attachments, where in user attachs some data and replies back to notification and this attachments must be handled back by workflow and go to another user.
Any ideas please help!

Can't type in iOS 8 notification response with Bluetooth keyboard

When I receive a text message and tap on "Respond" in the notification, I am unable to type in dialog that pops up when my Bluetooth Keyboard. Even if I bring up an on-screen keyboard, it still won't take any input. When I turned Bluetooth off, I was able to respond in the dialog without a hitch. This looks like an iOS 8 bug to me, but I figured I'd post here and see if anyone else is having a similar problem.

I'm having the same issue. Only place my bluetooth keyboard won't work. Was hoping the update would fix it but, no

Custom notification/response? (wf_standard.block?)

I have designed a workflow which which requires a user to review a document before continuing. The document is in the application which this workflow supports, and the user will access the document through this Web app. and enter their review comments. The review comments will be written to the application's tables.
Is this the correct approach?
1.) send a FYI notification to the reviewer where the message contains a URL to the document review page in the Web app.
2.) issue a wf_standard.block to stop the process until the document has been reviewed.
3.) issue a wf_standard.continueflow from the Web app. once the review is done to continue the process.
Please let me know if there is a more simple way...
--Andrew

I discovered that the correct call to use from an external app to signal workflow to continue is wf_engine.CompleteActivity()

Validate message attribute at notification response

Dear Oracle Gurus,
I'm a new developer of Oracle Workflow. I'm trying to create a simple process that a notification inside. On notification, the performer will return approve or reject, and update a message attribute with DATE datatype. Now, i need to validate this message attribute with another date. How I do it? (You may to see the simple flow below)
Thanx a lot,

START --> NOTIFY --> END

Hi
Use the CompareDate activity from the Standard item type in your process to compare the two values.

How can I add a response to the end of each item question in an email list of questions and send that back to the originator?

I have emails that ask for certian items to be addressed such as "please fix leak in bath sink" and then the next line will have another request and on and on. I would like to answer each question at the end of each line with a response (preferably in a different color font to stand out) such as "yes - will fix" or "that can't be done" or "you will have to fix that yourself". Then I want to send that reply back to the original sender.

Workflow Notification List - in HRIS -

Hi,
I looked into the notifications in more detail and it looks like all of the notifications are coming through to outlook, but they are not clearing out of the worklist like they used to. The other part is that they are taking time to go through to outlook. It seems to be sporadic. Some will come through right away and others will take a couple of hours or longer. An example of this was when x and y were testing the notifications for the app. I sent three changes through. She received 2 of them right away and the third one went through to her a couple hours later.
Basically what is causing the Notifications not being going away - any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
This is on 11.5.10.2.0

Notification mailers can also process e-mail responses from users, using the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP). A notification mailer uses a Java-based e-mail parser to interpret the text of each message and create an XML representation of it.
A notification mailer uses three folders in your response mail account for response processing: one to receive incoming messages, one to store processed messages, and one to store discarded messages.
A notification mailer does the following to process response messages:
Logs into its IMAP e-mail account.
Checks the inbox folder for messages. If a message exists, the notification mailer reads the message, checking for the notification ID (NID) and node identifier in the NID line.
If the message is not a notification response, meaning it does not contain an NID line, the notification mailer moves the message to the discard folder and treats it as an unsolicited message. For the first unsolicited message from a particular e-mail address, the notification mailer also sends a warning message back to the sender of the message.
However, to avoid sending unnecessary warnings due to bounced or auto-reply messages, each mailer node stores a list of e-mail addresses from which it has received unsolicited mail, and does not send any further warning messages to those addresses. Instead, if the node receives a second unsolicited message from a particular address, the notification mailer discards the message and raises the oracle.apps.wf.mailer.unsolicited event. You can optionally define a subscription to this event if you want to perform some other action in response to the second unsolicited message. For all subsequent unsolicited messages, the notification mailer simply discards the message.
