Accessing Task Actions

On the Task Actions page, the Properties tab displays the key task information (description, start and end dates, status, responsibility, and priority). If the task contains an external product link, the Go to Task button opens external products required for the task. The Instructions section can include text, document attachments, Web links, or links to documents stored in Oracle Content Management. The Attributes section displays any custom attributes associated with the task. The Questions section contains questions for you to answer about the close process. The Comments section enables you to enter comments and provide additional information about tasks. The Workflow section shows task status and responsibility.

For System-Automated tasks, the Task Actions Properties page includes a Results section that includes this information:

  • Message - Shows errors that occurred during the Web service startup or process. If no errors occurred, this section is not displayed.

  • Log File Location: - Log file location for the process on the server

  • Reports - Includes links that you can click to navigate to the specified report URL

For Event Monitoring tasks, the Task Actions Properties page includes a Results section that displays the event details; for example Event Received. For example:

""Event received for parameter EVENT_DATA value is 4782741." EVENT_DATA is the parameter and 4782741 is the parameter value.

The History tab shows the actions performed on the task and details of changes made to it. The Related Tasks tab displays information on predecessors, successors, and prior task runs.

To access the Task Actions dialog box, perform an action:

  • From a notification email, click the Task Actions link.
