We need to develop a new integrator which will be used to upload data into person EIT. Assume we have
defined one EIT to store Training test details in Oracle which was one of the important inputs for
Confirmation of employees. Creating data for each employee for each training using the seeded form was
a time consuming task and as a result of which we had provided them an excel interface to upload data
into system.

4.

Define the Layout for the integrator

Navigation -> Desktop Integrator -> Define Layout -> Select your custom integrator name

Click on Create and give a Layout name with some naming convention, which may be used later for

reference

The layout is divided into two important sections1. Required fields, where all mandatory parameters need to be aligned as per the requirement.
Instruct parameters can be used to provide some tips to users who are using this WEBADI for uploading
data
2. Optional fields are non mandatory fields, we need to select the ones which needs to be available in our
custom integrator

The instruct parameters added in the wrapper package will be available during the Layout definition and we can add
user friendly tips which will be available for user reference

Click Next To define certain important layout features This functionality is available only to R12
users

Data Entry Rows Using this property we can define the default number of rows which the ADI
will create when initialized, in 11i we user had to insert the new row in case of access data
Read Only Using this feature we can define that which of the columns in our integrator will be
available as read only

Width Using this option we can define the width of each of the columns which will be
available under the custom ADI

Move Up/Down we can re-arrange the order of display of column in our integrator

Once you are done click on Apply to save the Layout definition, system will give a confirmation message
as below

Now you WEBADI will be available for use using seeded WEB ADI responsibility
Navigation -> Desktop Integrator-> Create Document -> Search for the custom integrator which you
created

Click next and click on create the document which will now download your custom integrator
Instructions added in layout definition are available as tips for users

We can see the instructions and the columns available in our excel integrator ready for use.

5.

Defining the Form Function for Integrator

Now this ADI is available for use under the seeded responsibility, In order to give the access of the same
to users through custom responsibility, follow the following steps:
1. Define the custom Form Function

Navigation -> Application Developer -> Application -> Function

Type - SSWA servlet function

Parameter bne:page=BneCreateDoc&bne:viewer=BNE:EXCEL2003&bne:reporting=N&bne:integrator=US
ER_NAME:XX - Upload Training Details&bne:noreview=Yes

Integrator user name can be derived from bne_integrators_vl table with help of following query:

select integrator_code, user_name

from bne_integrators_vl
where 1 = 1
and user_name like 'XX%Train%'
order by creation_date desc

Save the Function definition

6.

Assign Function to Custom Menu

Go and add the function into the custom responsibility
Navigation-> Application Developer -> Application -> Menu -> Search for your menu where you
want to add this ADI

Add, Prompt and Form function created and save. To check the availability of the function,
navigate to the responsibility where its been added

Click next and Create document and your custom integrator is available to user for uploading data

1. PART 2 - Changing the Column Prompts of

Custom Integrator

1.
1. Business Requirement
The Column prompts of any Custom integrator will have the names of the parameter which you have
used in the wrapper package. Most of the times these prompts are not user friendly and let say we have a
requirement to change the Column prompt to make them more users friendly. We can achieve it very
easily using the following steps:

2.

2. Setup Steps
Navigation -> Desktop Integrator -> Create Document
Select Integrator name as Web ADI Update Interface Column Prompts, this is a seeded integrator
provided by Oracle to change the prompts for any define integrator (we can also achieve this by doing an
update directly to base tables but that option is not a recommended one)

Click next and enter below details

Filed Name Value
Application PER
Integrator XX Upload Training Details

Click next and click on create document this will download the Integrator data along with the prompts
which are currently in use for the integrator

Now remember the ADI which we had created in our earlier section

Now there is a requirement that we want to hide the prompts INSTRUCT and change the prompts like
EMPLOYEE_NUMBER to Employee Number, etc
I will be changing the Prompt left property for INSTRUCT to NULL and Prompt Above property of other
as per requirement.

Once done Upload the change prompt by using the Oracle -> Upload option in toolbar
Lets now re-download our integrator to see the change
Navigation -> Desktop Integrator-> Create Document -> Search for your custom integrator

We can see that the column prompts have got changed

1.

1. Business requirement
The business is using Checklist feature to track the tasks for on-boarding, confirmation, transfer
and Off-boarding. There are multiple stake-holders who play different roles in completion of the
entire process and HR centrally uses the checklist option to track the status of each of the tasks.
Now lets take an example of On-boarding and if there are 10 new joining then as per the
standard feature the system will send notification and mails to each task owner for each of these
new joinees. If as an HR person you are responsible for doing 3-4 on-boarding tasks, then the
system would have sent you 30-40 notification for action.
Pain Area Currently under Notification we cannot filter the Open notification based on
Employee or any particular date. Also, asking the user to go and click 30-40 notification one by
one and saying completed was a time consuming task. So the user asked us to build a mechanism
using which once they are done with the respective tasks, they should have an option to do mass
completion of the task
Based on this requirement we proposed an ADI which will allow user to automatically download
all the tasks which are still pending and user can mark the tasks which he/she has completed and
upload the status into system. This helped the users to mark the completion of the task easily
resulting in having the tracker updated
Prerequisites

2. Create View to download the data in your

integrator

I have attached a sample view which will download all the tasks for which needs users action
CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW "APPS"."XX_INCOMPLETE_TASKS"

"TARGET_START_DATE", "TARGET_END_DATE", "STATUS",
"ALLOCATED_TASK_ID") AS

and pat.performer_orig_sys_id = xx_hr_custom_pkg.get_user_person_id(fnd_global.user_id)
and trunc(sysdate) BETWEEN papf.effective_start_date and papf.effective_end_date
order by papf.employee_number;

5. Define Integrator Mapping

This is very important step for a download/upload integrator. This is the step in which we tell the
system that which of the integrator columns get mapped to the wrapper package input parameter.
Navigation -> Desktop Integrator -> Define Mappings-> Select your custom integrator name

The system by default will have already created a mapping for you. We have an option of
deleting and creating a new one. But I have always use the same, so click on update to check the
mapping and make the changes as per you requirement

Click on next to open the mapping page

The mapping page has two columns; Source Columns are the columns (fields) which are present
in your view definition. Target Column will have the sum of you view fields as well as the input
parameter of your wrapper package. You can validate this by clicking on the LOV option present
in each of the section.
Now if you refer the procedure, I need the ALLOCATED TASK ID and STATUS as input
parameters for my procedure as using this two parameters I am performing the required

transaction. So I will map these two parameters of the Source Column to the Package parameter
in Target Column.

Once you are done with the mapping, Click on apply to save

6.

6. Define the Layout for the integrator

Once you are done with the mapping, define you layout of the integrator
Navigation -> Desktop Integrator -> Define Layout -> Select your custom integrator name

Click on Create and give a Layout name with some naming convention, which may be used later
for reference

The layout is divided into two important sections1. Required fields, where all mandatory parameters need to be aligned as per the requirement.
Instruct parameters can be used to provide some tips to users who are using this WEBADI for
uploading data
2. Optional fields are non mandatory fields, we need to select the ones which needs to be
available in our custom integrator
The instruct parameters added in the wrapper package will be available during the Layout
definition and we can add user friendly tips which will be available for user reference

Click Next To define certain important layout features This functionality is available only to
R12 users

Data Entry Rows Using this property we can define the default number of rows which
the ADI will create when initialized, in 11i we user had to insert the new row in case of
access data
Read Only Using this feature we can define that which of the columns in our integrator
will be available as read only

Width Using this option we can define the width of each of the columns which will be
available under the custom ADI

Move Up/Down we can re-arrange the order of display of column in our integrator

Once you are done click on Apply to save the Layout definition, system will give a confirmation

message as below

7.

7. Defining the Form Function for Integrator

Create a form function; please refer the earlier section which explains in detail how to create a
form function for your custom Integrator
8.

8. Assign Function to Custom Menu

Go and add the function into the custom responsibility
Navigation-> Application Developer -> Application -> Menu -> Search for your menu where you
want to add this ADI

Add, Prompt and Form function created and save. To check the availability of the function,
navigate to the responsibility where its been added

Click on the function and press continue to open your integrator and your custom integrator is
available to user for uploading data

You can see that all other columns apart from status column are available as read-only so that
users cant change any data for those columns. Now user can update the status of tasks which
he/she has completed and upload the data into Orcale.

Generating Recruitment Letters using Web ADI

Web ADI can be used to generate mail merge letters from the Request Recruitment Letter
window in Oracle HRMS which associates a letter with an applicant assignment status, or
Letter Request form in Oracle Learning Management which uses enrollment status.

1. The first step is to identify the information required from database and create a view
to retrieve data for the letter to be downloaded to Word.
The view must join with the PER_LETTER_REQUEST_LINES table, and
must include the column LETTER_REQUEST_ID. For example,

create or replace view MBE_APP_LETTER_CONTRACT_SITE as
