Define Custom Enterprise Scheduler Jobs for Fusion

Oracle Enterprise Scheduler jobs are run in
Oracle Fusion Applications to process data and, in some cases, to
provide report output. A job definition contains the metadata that
determines what the job does and what options are available to users
who run the job. You can create and maintain job definitions for use
in Oracle Fusion Applications.
Managing job definitions is fully described in the
Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide. As you read content
from that guide, note that the guide describes managing Oracle Enterprise
Scheduler, including job definitions, from Oracle Enterprise Manager
Fusion Applications Control. You can also access job definitions by
starting in the Setup and Maintenance Overview page and searching
for the Enterprise Scheduler job tasks for your applications.
Selecting the Appropriate Implementation Task
Each Enterprise Scheduler job definition task uses
one Java EE application, which is referenced in the task name. You
must use the right task because, to access the product job definition
that you want to view or work on, the view objects must be contained
in the application. If you do not select the right task, then the
job definition will not be displayed properly or function correctly.
The application name is usually the same as the product that the job
definition belongs to, but not always.
- For example, the Oracle Fusion Payables Java EE
application contains the Oracle Fusion Expenses product view objects.
To create or maintain a job definition for use in Expenses, you select
the Manage Custom Enterprise Scheduler Jobs for Payables and Related
Applications task.
- In another example, the Oracle Fusion Payments
product view objects are contained in both Oracle Fusion Payables
and Oracle Fusion Receivables Java EE applications. You need to select
the task appropriate to the job definition for Payments. Use the Manage
Custom Enterprise Scheduler Jobs for Receivables and Related Applications
task if the job is for receivables functionality, or the Manage Custom
Enterprise Scheduler Jobs for Payables and Related Applications task
if the job is for payables functionality.
- Use the task description to see the products that
correspond to the Java EE application specified in the task name.
For example, the description for the Payables task lists Oracle Fusion
Payables, Assets, Expenses, and Payments.
- You can view task descriptions in the help window
for the task, if any, or in the generated setup task lists and tasks
report from the Getting Started page.
- If you have access to the Manage Task Lists and
Tasks page, you can also open the details for specific tasks to see
the description.
- For general information about product and Java
EE application relationships, use Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion
Applications Control (Fusion Applications Control).
See: Topology Section
Viewing and Creating Job Definitions
- You can access predefined and custom job definitions.
See: Viewing Job Definitions
- You can create jobs based on Java, PL/SQL, or any
other supported technology.
See: Creating a Job Definition
- If you are using the Setup and Maintenance work
area, then the Enable submission from Enterprise Manager check box
is available for the job definition.
- If you do not select this check box, then the job
cannot be run from Enterprise Manager.
- If you select this check box, then you can define
parameters for this job definition only in Enterprise Manager. Save
the rest of your work on the job definition, and then go to Enterprise
Manager if you need to define parameters.
A list of values source for Oracle Enterprise
Scheduler job definitions determines where a list of values comes
from and what the specific values are. These lists of values are used
in parameters and user properties of job definitions. For example,
you can use a source of country values for a Country job parameter.
Managing list of values sources is fully described
in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide. As you read
content from that guide, note that the guide describes managing Oracle
Enterprise Scheduler, including list of values sources, from Oracle
Enterprise Manager Fusion Applications Control. You can also access
list of values sources by starting in the Setup and Maintenance Overview
page and searching for Enterprise Scheduler job tasks.
Registering and Searching for List of Values Sources
- Create list of values sources to register them
for use in job definitions.
See: Registering Sources for Lists of Values
- Search for list of values sources to edit or delete,
or to make sure a particular source does not already exist before
you create it.
