Writing a SQL*Plus Script for MultiMate or WordPerfect

Now that you have identified whether you want to associate the standard letters with student enrollment or applicant assignment statuses, you are ready to write your program to extract the data from the database.

Oracle HRMS supplies you with SQL*Plus scripts as templates. You can copy the SQL*Plus script templates and modify them to create the standard letters you require. Copy the SQL*Plus scripts from the server side sql directory of the HR product tree (consult your installation guide for details). The following example applies to HR--Oracle Training Administration does not provide template scripts--but we provide an example of a Confirmation letter SQL mail merge file.

See OTA SQL*Plus Script.

Once you have written your script, save the file with the name PERWP*** (or OTAWP*** for OTA). You must use this prefix for the system to recognise it as a type of letter. See your Oracle Applications installation server guides for details of where the concurrent manager places the files.

The template scripts Oracle HRMS provides are:

Scripts Purpose Used By
PERWPMUK.sql Example UK SQL*Plus script for MultiMate HR
PERWPMUS.sql Example US SQL*Plus script for MultiMate HR
PERWPWUK.sql Example US SQL*Plus script for WordPerfect HR

One of the template SQL*Plus scripts (PERWPWUK.sql) is provided as a example, see Template SQL*Plus Script PERWPWUK. Oracle Training Administration does not provide template scripts, but we provide an example of a Confirmation letter SQL mail merge file, see OTA SQL*Plus Script
