Workflow and Alert issues

Hi Guys,
Platform is 11.5.10.2
OS is UNix
I have setup workflow but I not am able to receive notifications by emails.
(i.e When I send a request and have select the option of notifying me , I do not get an email,
Or
when I send a test mailer, I only receive the notification by going to:
1. logon into E-business Suite
2.Workflow : Administrator Workflow --> Notifications
How can I have it send the notifications or alerts to my email.
Thanks in advance.

Few things you can check, First see sendmail at unix level is working fine. And second and application level check prefrences for mail, if you have pref as text mail, then only you will receive this alerts otherwise not.
Thanks

Difference between Workflow and Alert management

HI all
Let me know the difference between workflow and alert management. ?
In Workflow if we want to trigger alert or mail.
We can use SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 FM send mail.
But in alert we can use different method?
Can i know wht the exact difference between two?

Hi,
email messages can be sent with both technologies...
If you need to send just a simple email, use the ALM.
If you need to send email and wait something adding additional flows....use the Worflow.
Remember that with ALM is not possible to attach something to the email.
You can add additional steps like web addresses in order to perform further activities.

Rules and Alerts Issue

Hi,
I'm trying to create a rule to forward an email and change the subject line. The forward rule has been created but within that same rule I'm unable to specific "a new subject heading". Has anyone had success with this?

You'll need to use Run a script. Try this one:

I am new to workflow and I have and issue

Hi Experts,
I am very new to workflow and Ive got an issue which I need know where to start with.
I am working with an application whose UI is Java and back end is SAP.
When a sales order is created in the UI this creates a order record in SAP and triggers a business object which inturn calls the func module SWE_EVENT_CREATE for initiating the workflow.
The workflow sends a mail in which the data is coming wrong in the preview mode(i.e whn u single click on the message it appears at the bottom ) and when u double click on the message u can find correct info.Y its like that ?
Any ideas??
Neeraj

Hi,
Neeraj not in perticular that case but in every case when you click once it will appear at bottom and when you double click on it it gives you a pop p window which helps you to see whole message.
So,It's a functionality Dear nota problem.
Hope you understand.

Purvesh.

Alert issue in oracle EBS

Hi,
I have a test instance with EBS:12.0.6,Oracle DB :10.2.0.4 and RHEL:4
I am facing a alert issue in Purchasing as follows:
It throws following error: APP-FND- 01874:Please link in Oracle Alert program library.
I had a metalink id 211089.1 addressing the same error but it is for 11.5.10.2 EBS
Please help with to resolve this issue at the earliest.
Regards,
Milan Rathod

How do you get the error?
Can you find any errors in the workflow log file?
The steps in the doc should be applicable (except for the last step), so you may try the same solution and check then.
Thanks,

Trying to get a Trigger and Alert to work

So im trying to get a trigger to work with an alert and the Alert seems to be right and the trigger complies which seems right to me, however the instruction that I have in my book does not produce the same output that I get from my Update.
Here is the deal. I am to log into sql * with a default account as well as login as "SYSTEM"
the trigger should invoke the Alert and output a message to re-order some more product and the status should = 0 since there is no wait time. However I don't get a "Message" from the Alert and the status = 1 which indicates timeout. So if you can take a look at my code and let me know what I did wrong or how to "Connect" the two that would be great.
Trigger I created.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER order_replace_trg
AFtER UPDATE OF stock on bb_product
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN (OLD.stock = 24 AND NEW.stock = -2)
DECLARE
stock NUMBER(5,1);
idproduct NUMBER(2);
lv_msg_txt VARCHAR2(25);
lv_status_num NUMBER(1);
reorder NUMBER(3);
BEGIN
IF stock <> 24 AND reorder = 25 THEN
lv_msg_txt := 'Product 4 Reorder Time!';
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(lv_msg_txt);
ELSE
lv_status_num := 0;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(lv_status_num);
END IF;
END;
The Alert:
BEGIN
DBMS_ALERT.REGISTER('reorder');
END;
DECLARE
lv_msg_txt VARCHAR2(25);
lv_status_num NUMBER(1);
BEGIN
DBMS_ALERT.WAITONE('reorder', lv_msg_txt, lv_status_num, 120);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Alert: ' ||lv_msg_txt);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Status: ' ||lv_status_num);
END;
Here is the block I need to run to test the trigger and alert.
UPDATE bb_product
SET stock = stock -2
WHERE idproduct = 4;
COMMIT;
The message I should get is:
Alert: Product 4 Reorder Time!
Status: 0
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
This is what I get.
SQL> /
Alert:
Status: 1
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Thanks for your help!

Right. Register says "I'm interested in getting alerted to some particular event", Waitone says "I'm waiting until some event happens". Signal is the key thing that indicates that a particular event happened.
As for your trigger, a couple of issues
- I don't know why you're calling DBMS_OUTPUT. I'm guessing that you probably want to send a message along with your alert that the receiver gets and displays, not that you want to print a message to the window from inside the trigger.
- You're using the local variables stock and reorder in your IF statement but you never initialize them. I'm guessing that you would want to eliminate those local variables and just use :new.stock and :new.reorder (assuming that REORDER is a column in the table).
- Your WHEN clause doesn't seem to make sense. It's telling the trigger to fire only if you update stock from 24 to -2, which doesn't make sense. I'm not sure you would even need a WHEN clause here.

Tapeless workflows and Sandy Bridge or other PC's: KISS or LOVE?

Tapeless workflows and Sandy Bridge or other PC's: KISS or LOVE?
Life used to be so simple when shooting video on a tape based camera. You shot your material, captured it for editing and stored your precious original footage on tape in a safe and dry place. Sure, it took time to capture, but the big advantage was that if you had a computer or drive failure, you would still have the original tape so everything could be recreated.
Now with tapeless workflows we have the significant advantage of much faster import of the original footage. Connect the flash card or disk drive to the computer over USB and copy the data to a HDD on the computer, ready for editing. The data on the flash card or disk drive can then be erased, so you can reuse it for more shots. But, like Johan Cruyff has said repeatedly, every advantage has its drawback. In this case it simply means that you no longer have the original material to fall back on, in case of computer or drive failures. That is a very unpleasant and insecure feeling.
The easy anwser to that problem is backups. Backup of the original media, backup of projects and backup of exports. This often means a bundle of externals for backup or NAS configurations. One thing is clear, it requires discipline to make regular backups and it costs time, as well as a number of disks. Four as a minimum: 1 for media, 1 for exports and at least 2 for projects. Note: This is excluding a backup drive for OS & programs.
There are different backup strategies in use. Some say backup daily and use one disk for monday, one for tuesday, and so on. Others say one disk for the first backup, the second for the second backup, then the first again for an incremental backup, etc. and once weekly a complete backup on a third disk. Whatever you choose, be aware that shelf live of a disk is far less than tape. There are horror stories everywhere about ball-bearings getting stuck after some time and without original tapes, you better be safe than sorry, so don't skimp on backups.
What is the relevancy of all this? I thought this was about Sandy Bridge and other PC's.
It is and let me try to explain.
Card based cameras are for the most part DSLR and AVCHD type cameras, and we all know how much muscle is required to edit that in a convenient way. Adobe suggests in the system requirements to use raid configurations for HD editing and practice has shown that raid arrays do give a significant performance boost and improve responsiveness, making for a nicer editing experience. The larger the project and the longer the time-line, the more a raid array will help maintain the responsiveness.
One thing you would not do is using a raid0 for projects, media and exports, even if you have backups. The simple reason is that the chance of disk failure multiplies by the number of disks in the raid0. Two disks double the chance of disk failure, three disks triple the chance, four disks quadruples the chance, etc.
Remember: Disaster always strikes when it is most inconvenient.
Imagine you have been working all day on a project, you decide to call it a day and to make your daily backup, but then the raid fails, before you made your backup. Gone is all of today's work. Then take into consideration the time and effort it takes to restore your backups to the state it was in yesterday. That does not make you happy.
Another thing to avoid is using a software or mobo based parity raid, for the simple reason that it is slooowww and puts a burden on the CPU, that you want to use for editing, not house keeping.
For temporary or easily recreated files, like the page-file, media cache, media cache database and preview files, it is very much advised to use a raid0. It makes everything a lot snappier and if disaster strikes, so what? These are easily recreated in a short time.
This was a general overview of what is required with tapeless workflows. Now let's get down to what this means in terms of system design.
Two approaches or train of thoughts
KISS: Keep it stupidly simple or LOVE: Laughing over video editing
The first one, the most economic one, is to use a system with 3 or 4 disks internally and 4 or more backup disks.
A typical disk setup can look like this:
This is a perfectly sensible approach if one does not have large or complex projects, long time-lines and is willing to take the risk of occasionally losing a whole days work, between backups. Many hobbyists and consumers fall in this category.
The KISS approach keeps it stupidly simple. The drawback is that there is no logical way to add more disks or storage. The discipline, diligence and effort required for regular backups make it far from a laughing matter. In fact it can quickly become a bore. Add to that the fact that the disk setup is simple but not very fast, so less suited for situations where lots of clips are involved, multi-cam is a regularly recurring situation or lots of video tracks are involved.
A number of video editors want more from their system than the occasional platonic KISS, they want to really LOVE their system, which lead to the other train of thought.
This is more costly than the KISS approach, but you all know a fiancée or wife is more costly and dear than the occasional kiss on the cheek by an old friend.
Let's start with a typical disk setup. It may look like this:
Two striking differences in comparison to the KISS approach:
1. Much easier disk organization and more disks and thus more space.
2. It requires a hardware raid controller, causing a higher investment cost. It is like an engagement ring. You don't get LOVE for free, one of the guiding principles of the oldest trade in the world.
These are easy statements to make, but what are the benefits or advantages, that you would fall in LOVE with such a system, and what are the drawbacks? Think back to Johan Cruyff's adage.
The only drawback is cost. The advantages are multiple, easier organization, more speed, more storage, snappier editing, no jerkiness, lesser requirements for regular backups and - this is the major benefit - hardly a chance of losing a day's work in case of a drive failure. Keep in mind that a parity raid keeps all your data intact in case of a drive failure, so lessens the need for up-to-date backups.
We all know, we get what we pay for: "If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys. OTOH, if you pay money to monkeys, you get rich monkeys". But in this case you get what you pay for, a much better editing experience with a much easier workflow.
Using a parity raid (be it raid 3/5/6/30/50/60) you get security, ease of mind that you are protected against losing precious media, that you need not worry about the last time you made a backup, that the editing you did today may be lost and you save valuable time editing and a lot of aggravation because of a much more responsive system.
How does this all relate to Sandy Bridge and other PC's?
First of all, the price difference between a Sandy Bridge / P67 platform and an i7-950+ / X58 platform is very small. Of course the new architecture is slightly more expensive than the older one, but the differences are small, almost not worth talking about.
So what are the differences? Look below:
The first thing to keep in mind is that the Sandy Bridge is the successor of the i7-8xx CPU and as such it is much more evolutionary than revolutionary. The CPU power has increased significantly over the i7-8xx due to new architecture and a smaller production process (32 nm), but in essence all the capabilities have remained unchanged. Same memory, same PCI-e lanes, same version, same L3 cache and no support for dedicated raid controllers.
It is great that the processor performs much better than the older i7-8xx CPU's, almost achieving the level of the i7-9xx range of processors, but is still limited:
The Sandy Bridge is unsuitable for anything more than a KISS system.
Why? Because it lacks the required PCI-e lanes to accomodate more than a 16 x PCI-e nVidia card with CUDA support to enable hardware MPE acceleration and the integrated graphics are not supported by CS5.
You may wonder if that is a bad thing. The plain and simple anser is NO. It is a great processor, it delivers great value for money, is a solid performer, but it has its limitations. Intel had a reason to position this CPU as a mid-level CPU, because that is what it is, a mid-level performer in comparison to what is to come.
The term mid-level performer may seem strange when compared to the old generation of i7-9xx CPU's, because they perform almost equally well, but keep in mind that there is a generation difference between them.
So what about the i7-9xx and X58 platform?
It still is going strong. About the same performance as a Sandy Bridge, with only the much more expensive hexa-cores clearly in the lead, both performance and price wise. The quad cores deliver about the same value for money. The main difference however is the platform that allows a dedicated raid controller to be installed, thus making it the platform of choice for those who want to go from a passing KISS to true LOVE.
And what lies ahead?
Sandy Bridge E on the Waimea platform (X68). Now that is revolutionary. More than double almost everything a processor can offer: double the cores, double the PCI-e lanes, triple the memory, more than double the L3 cache, increase the PCI-e support from 2.0 to 3.0, etc...
This is why Intel calls this a high-end CPU / platform.
So what now?
If you prefer a KISS approach, choose either a Sandy Bridge/P67 or an i7-950+/X58 platform.
If you wonder whether in the future you may need multi-cam more frequently, edit more complex projects and longer timelines or even progress to RED, look at KISS/LOVE solutions, meaning the i7-950+/X58.
If you can't have downtime, time pressure is high, delivery dates to clients are critical or you edit highly complex projects, lots of multi-cam situations or lengthy time-lines, choose a LOVE solution, an i7-950+/X58 platform.
If you have the time to wait till Q4/2011, Sandy Bridge E/Waimea looks to be worth the wait.
Hope this gives you some more insight into recent and future developments and helps you make wise investment decisions.

I'm upgrading from an AMD 3800+, cutting with Vegas 7 Pro. Usually shoot DSLR or HDV, sometimes P2, EX or RED. I have ridiculously cheap access to Macs, FCP/FCS, all kinds of software.
I've been agonizing over this for the last month, was originally hoping the UD7 mobo was the solution, read the read about the NF200/PCIe issue a few days ago, http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/non-linear-editing-pc/489424-i7-980x-now-wait-sandybridge-2.ht ml- and still decided to go for a 2600k.
My preference is to treat my video footage the same way as my digital imagery: I make (at least) duplicate back ups of everything before reformatting the cards, never delete the back ups, and only worry about the day-to-day stuff at night. Unless I'm rendering or involved in other long processes, in which case I'll back up the work in process the next day. If I am under a really really tight deadline I might back up as I go.
Yes, a RAID might make it easier, but I'm paranoid enough to prefer a slower, safer backup. You can always duplicate, and usually improve upon, a days work, but you can never get back original footage you lost. I have only ever had one hard drive die on me (a few enclosures crapped out, though)- it took a couple of (mostly unattended) hours to rectify. As a matter of act, I've had far more loss/damage from tapes than from hard drives.
I ordered the UD7, 2 F4s and 4 F3Rs, understanding I will probably want to upgrade to SBE when it comes out, or maybe next year. The 2600k/mobo/RAM will likely hold its value better than a 950/X58, likely because of the marketplace as much as merit.
The UD7 / RAID card issue is in it's early days, there may be a solution/mitigation. Probably not. But if I really really need a RAID card, then I probably really really need a 980, NAS, etc etc.
But Harm still rocks!

Iphone 4s calendar alert issue

I tend to put 2 alerts on my calendar events, one for 1 day before and the second one for 1 hour before (or some other on the day of event). I have noticed that when I put in the first alert for 1 day before and then enter the second alert for 1 hour before and click done they have somehow been reversed, the first alert is now 1 hour before and the second alert is 1 day before. I have to click them again and change them to the proper order, this usually take about 3 tries to get them to stay as I want them. I can them save the event and all is good. I was at the Apple store and the staff duplicated this issue so I know I'm not the only one experiencing this nuissance. Has anyone else come across this? I do hope the upcoming update will fix it.

Update since Genius visit:
1) Apple is working on an update
2) There is no awareness at Apple of this calendar alert issue as a bug, hence it is not being addressed/worked on
3) Solutions offered by Genius have not resolved this issue.
Solutions offered by Genius, in order of which to try first:
1) Delete calendar data from iPhone: Settings>iCloud>Calendars OFF and then restore data from iCloud: Calendars ON
2) Reset iPhone settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
3) Restore to factory settings: Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings, then restore data from iCloud and in-app backups.
4) Use another calendar app (seriously)
Of course, if the bug is actually part of the iOS software (could it be?) then no amount of erasing and restoring data will fix the issue. I completed the first two options with no change, and am not willing to do the third option because I am not interested in going through the process of backing up, then restoring all my third-party apps.
My solution: raise awareness of this issue with Apple, so that it can be worked on and fixed. I have reported it as a bug through Apple's feedback module: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and I encourage-- no, ask-- you to do the same, if you are experiencing this issue. I provided a link to this forum topic to show the variety and detail of problems.
Are you sick of missing alerts, fiddling endlessly, coming up with workarounds, paying for unreliable software, and not being responded to? I am. It's time to rally!

Purchased ringtones and alerts disappeared after updating to iOS 8.2

since updating to iOS 8.2 purchased alert tones and ringtones have disappeared and following the restore times link does not restore them. Also, cannot update any apps from the App Store. How do I get back my purchased ringtones and alert tones?

Greetings EmmsieK13,
It sounds like you were trying to connect to the App Store when there were some system issues.
You can check the status at

Alert Inbox and Alert Config does not open in RWB

When I open RWB I am not able to open Alert Inbox and Alert Configuration links. Its says " Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" . When I exequte the command ALRTINBOX from Abap stack, it opens the Alert Inbox page.
Can someone tell me if there is any setting that I need to change in my Internet Explorer. I even tried using Mozilla, but same issue. My team members are able to open these links, hence it may be some setting on my machine.

Hi Chiraj/ Navneet,
Thanks for your reply, I have already tried these setting and my team members are able to login from their comps. Also i have tried using SUPER USER id which has all access, still the same issue. Hence I believe it is an issue with Internet Explorer setting.
Thanks

What sequence setting would you use to edit 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in FCP. Experiencing Quality and rendering issues.

What sequence setting would you use to edit both 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in a single timeline in FCP. I'm experiencing quality and rendering issues. I've tried numerous settings but can't seem to figure this one out. Thanks for your assistance.

Although you can combine the avchd 1920x1080 material with prores 1920x1080 in the same timeline, you might land up saving time just converting everything to 1920x1080 prores 422. You'd probably reduce the amount of rendering while you're working and exporting when you're done by a great deal. This workflow will require much more drive space.

Infrastructure Navigator 1.2 monitoring and alerting

I was under the impression that Infrastructure Navigator did monitoring and alerting of services and applications where if something stopped working or had issues it can notify you via something like email or SMS etc. From what I have seen it appears that it only shows you what services are running on a VM and the dependencies it has with other servers. Is that the case or am I missing something?

Take a look at http://www.vmware.com/products/datacenter-virtualization/vcenter-infrastructure-navigator/overview.html:
vCenter Infrastructure Navigator automatically discover application services, visualize relationships and map dependencies of applications on virtualized compute, storage and network resources. A component of the vCenter Operations Management Suite, vCenter Infrastructure Navigator enables application-aware management of infrastructure and operations to better understand the impact of change, provide more complete disaster recovery protection and minimize downtime.
Automatically discover and keep up-to-date the names and version numbers of application components and services
Visualize application relationships, communication paths and backend connections at the infrastructure, guest OS and application level
Map dependencies of application components on the underlying virtual infrastructure to understand the impact of change and build disaster recovery plans with confidence
The use case you describe is more relevant to vFabric APM - VMware's perfomance management suit which among other capabilities, will alert and notify in case of application performance issues, unavailable services etc. take a look at http://www.vmware.com/products/application-platform/vfabric-application-performance-manager/overview.html

Summary Alert Issues - Summary Alert Being Sent Out as Multiple Emails

I'm sure many of you have seen the various posts online about Summary Alerts that are supposed to show changes over the last 24hrs in a single email being sent out as either multiple emails containing a random number of items per email, or individual emails
for each item that was updated. The question I have is... Has this issue been resolved with SP2 or any of the Post-SP CUs?
One of my users mentioned that the August 2014 CU was supposed to have a fix for this issue, but I am unable to find any documentation specifically mentioning alert handling or the Summary Alert issue mentioned above.
Current Environment is SP1 + Aug 2013 CU (We're a tad behind -- but I'm working on that)
Any information would be helpful.
Thank you!
MH

Hi,
I suggest you to delete the existing Rule and setup a New Rule.
I have tested this on my lab and it works fine.
You might want to refer to the below article on Setting up Alert Notifications
