This appendix lists the profile options that you can set to configure Oracle Workflow.
This appendix covers the following topics:
You can set the following profile options to configure Oracle Workflow. See: Overview of Setting User Profiles, Oracle E-Business Suite System Administrator's Guide - Maintenance and Profile Categories, Oracle E-Business Suite System Administrator's Guide - Maintenance.
If your site has implemented single sign-on with Oracle Internet Directory, this profile option determines how users can log in to Oracle E-Business Suite.
SSO - User passwords are maintained only in Oracle Internet Directory. Users must log in to Oracle E-Business Suite through single sign-on.
Local - User passwords are maintained only in Oracle Application Object Library. Users must log in through the local Oracle E-Business Suite login page.
Both - User passwords are maintained both in Oracle Internet Directory and in Oracle Application Object Library. Users can log in to Oracle E-Business Suite either through single sign-on or through the local Oracle E-Business Suite login page. A user's single sign-on password can be different than that user's Oracle Application Object Library password.
Oracle Workflow supports password-based signatures for notifications based on Oracle Application Object Library passwords. If you have implemented single sign-on, you must set this profile option to either Local or Both for all users who need to enter password-based signatures. You must also ensure that these users have valid passwords defined in Oracle Application Object Library. See: Implementing Password-based Signatures with Single Sign-On.
Users can view this profile option but cannot update it.
System administrators can view and update this profile option only at the site and user levels.
The internal name for this profile option is APPS_SSO_LOCAL_LOGIN.
This profile option belongs to the Single Sign-On Deployment (FND_SSO_DEPLOYMENT) profile category in the Application Object Library application.
For more information, see: Oracle Single Sign-On Integration, Oracle E-Business Suite System Administrator's Guide - Security.
If you define event subscriptions that invoke business process execution language (BPEL) processes, this profile option lets you specify the host name and port of the BPEL server. When this profile option is set, you can use relative URLs rather than absolute URLs in the subscription parameters to specify the location of the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) descriptions for the BPEL processes.
At runtime, Oracle Workflow replaces the bpel:// prefix in the relative URLs with the host name and port for the BPEL server specified in the WF: BPEL Server profile option. In this way, the profile option lets you quickly change the BPEL server setup for all subscriptions that invoke BPEL processes, such as if you move these subscription definitions from a test instance to a production instance. See: Specifying the BPEL Server and Invoking a Web Service, Oracle Workflow Developer's Guide.
Set the WF: BPEL Server profile option to the host name and port of the BPEL server using the following format:
http://<host_name>:<port>/Note: The profile option value must end with a slash (/) in order to form the final WSDL description URL correctly.
Users can view this profile option but cannot update it.
System administrators can view and update this profile option only at site level.
The internal name for this profile option is WF_BPEL_SERVER.
This profile option lets you specify whether users can respond to a group of notifications collectively from the Worklist and Notification Search pages, without navigating to the Notification Details page for each notification individually. If you enable bulk notification response, a Respond button appears on the Advanced Worklist, Personal Worklist, Personal Worklist Simple Search, Personal Worklist Advanced Search, and administrator Notification Search pages. See: Setting the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response Profile Option, To View Notifications from the Advanced Worklist, Oracle Workflow User's Guide, Viewing Notifications from the Personal Worklist, Oracle Workflow User's Guide, Searching for Users' Notifications, and To Respond to a Group of Notifications, Oracle Workflow User's Guide.
Yes - The Respond button appears on the Worklist and Notification Search pages to let users respond to groups of notifications collectively.
No - The Respond button is hidden, and users must always respond to each notification individually from the Notification Details page. This setting is the default value for this profile option.
Users can view and update this profile option.
System administrators can view and update this profile option at the site, application, responsibility, and user levels.
The internal name for this profile option is WF_BULK_RESPONSE.
This profile option belongs to the Workflow (FND_WORKFLOW) profile category in the Application Object Library application.
This profile option helps control whether users must log in before they can access the Notification Details Web page from a notification. To enable guest access, which does not require an individual login, you must both set this profile option to Enabled and create a grant assigning the "Workflow Guest User permission set" to the GUEST user. See: Responses through the Notification Detail Link Attachment.
Enabled - If the required grant has also been created, users can access the Notification Details page as the GUEST user, without an individual login.
Disabled - Users must always log into Oracle E-Business Suite with their individual user names and passwords before they can access the Notification Details page.
Users can view and update this profile option.
System administrators can view and update this profile option only at the site level.
The internal name for this profile option is WF_VALIDATE_NTF_ACCESS.
This profile option belongs to the Workflow (FND_WORKFLOW) profile category, to the Security (FND_SECURITY) profile category, and to the Exportable (FND_AZ_EXPORTABLE) profile category in the Application Object Library application.
This profile option lets you specify whether to enable the Notification Details pop-up window in the Worklist, letting users view notification details quickly without leaving the current page. If you enable the pop-window, then it appears when a user positions the cursor over a notification subject link in the Oracle E-Business Suite home page, Oracle Workflow administrator home page, Oracle Workflow self-service home page, Advanced Worklist, Personal Worklist, Personal Worklist Simple Search page, Personal Worklist Advanced Search page, or other pages that include a Worklist region. See: Enabling the Notification Details Pop-up Window.
Yes - The Notification Details pop-up window appears when a user positions the cursor over a notification subject link in the Worklist.
No - The Notification Details pop-up window is not available, and users must navigate to the Notification Details page to view the notification details. This setting is the default value for this profile option.
Users can view and update this profile option.
System administrators can view and update this profile option at the site, application, responsibility, and user levels.
The internal name for this profile option is WF_NTF_POPUP_ENABLED.
This profile option lets you define the size of the Notification Details pop-up window, if you have enabled the pop-up window using the WF: Notification Pop-up Enabled profile option. Specify the size in the following format:
<width>*<height>The default value is 700*400. See: Enabling the Notification Details Pop-up Window.
Note: If the value specified for the profile option does not follow the correct format, then Oracle Workflow uses the default size instead.
Users can view and update this profile option.
System administrators can view and update this profile option at the site, application, responsibility, and user levels.
The internal name for this profile option is WF_NTF_POPUP_WINDOW_SIZE.
This profile option controls how users can reassign notifications. See: Setting the WF: Notification Reassign Mode Profile Option.
Delegate - Provides users access to delegate a notification to another user while still retaining ownership of the notification.
Transfer - Provides users access to transfer complete ownership of a notification to another user.
Reassign - Provides users access to both the Delegate and Transfer reassign modes. This setting is the default value for this profile option.

This profile option controls whether the list of item types for vacation rules includes the "All" option. The "All" option lets users create a rule that applies to notifications associated with any item type. See: Setting Up Notification Handling Options.
Enabled - The "All" option appears in the list of available item types for vacation rules. This setting is the default value for this profile option.
Disabled - The "All" option does not appear in the list of available item types. Users must specify the item type to which the vacation rule applies.
After changing the value of this profile option, you must stop and restart Oracle HTTP Server for the change to take effect.
