procedure FORWARD
(nid in number,
new_role in varchar2,
forward_comment in varchar2 default null);
Java Syntax
public static boolean forward
(WFContext wCtx,
BigDecimal nid,
String newRole
String comment)
Description
This procedure delegates a notification to a new role to perform work, even though the original role recipient still maintains ownership of the notification activity. Also implicitly calls the Callback function specified in the Send or SendGroup function with FORWARD mode. A comment can be supplied to explain why the forward is taking place. Existing notification attributes (including due date) are not refreshed or otherwise changed. The Delegate feature in the Notification System calls this procedure. Note that when you forward a notification, the forward is recorded in the USER_COMMENT field of the notification.
Arguments (input)
| wCtx | Workflow context information. Required for the Java method only. See: Oracle Workflow Context. |
| nid | The notification id. |
| new_role or newRole | The role name of the person the note is reassigned to. |
| forward_comment or comment | An optional forwarding comment. |
The following code excerpt shows an example of how to call forward() in a Java program. The example code is from the WFTest.java program.
// forward to MBEECH
System.out.println("Delegate Test");
count = WFNotificationAPI.workCount(ctx, "MBEECH");
System.out.println("There are " + count +
" open notification(s) for" + " MBEECH");
System.out.println("Delegate nid " + myNid +
" from BLEWIS to MBEECH");
WFNotificationAPI.forward(ctx, myNid, "MBEECH",
"Matt, Please handle.");
count = WFNotificationAPI.workCount(ctx, "MBEECH");
System.out.println("There are " + count +
" open notification(s) for" +
" MBEECH after Delegate.");
