Standard Access from Oracle E-Business Suite Forms

You can provide standard access from an Oracle E-Business Suite application to the Status Monitor by using self-service functions. You can call these functions from an Oracle E-Business Suite form, or add the menus that contain the functions to another menu associated with another responsibility.

The following table lists the functions that provide standard access to the Status Monitor. These functions do not require any parameters.

Function Description
WF_STATUS_MONITOR Displays the Workflows search page in the administrator version of the Status Monitor.
WF_SS_STATUS_MONITOR Displays the Workflows search page in the self-service version of the Status Monitor.

You can call the function FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE to execute a standard access function. See: FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE, Oracle Applications Developer's Guide.

The following code example demonstrates how to execute the WF_STATUS_MONITOR function using FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE.

FND_FUNCTION.EXECUTE(FUNCTION_NAME => 'WF_STATUS_MONITOR');

Menu Setup

If you use a standard access function within your responsibility, you must add the menu containing that function to the top-level menu for your responsibility. The WF_STATUS_MONITOR function is seeded on the Workflow Administrator Application (WF_ADMINISTRATOR_APPLICATION) menu, and the WF_SS_STATUS_MONITOR function is seeded on the Workflow Self-Service Application (WF_SELF_SERVICE_APPLICATION) menu.

Note: You cannot add the Status Monitor functions to your menu directly. To include these functions, you must add the Oracle Workflow menu that contains the function you want.

The Workflow Administrator Application menu is seeded on the Workflow Administrator (New) menu (FND_WFADMIN_NEW) associated with the Workflow Administrator Web (New) responsibility. Similarly, the Workflow Self-Service Application menu is seeded on the Workflow User (New) menu (FND_WFUSER_NEW) associated with the Workflow User Web (New) responsibility.

Migrating to Standard Access Functions

If your application used self-service functions to provide access to the previous version of the Workflow Monitor, you can migrate to the new Status Monitor by replacing the functions you previously called with the appropriate new functions. The following table shows the correspondence between functions for the previous Workflow Monitor and the standard access functions for the new Status Monitor.

Previous Function New Function
FND_FNDWFIAS (if called without any parameters) WF_STATUS_MONITOR or WF_SS_STATUS_MONITOR
