How You Modify Approval Notifications Using Page Composer

Using the Oracle Page Composer, you can selectively show and hide various components of a notification, including fields, labels, and regions. You can edit labels, color, and page layout.

Users with this role: Human Capital Management Application Administrator role or any other role that has this privilege PER_CUSTOMIZE_APPROVAL_NOTIFICATION_PRIV can modify notifications.

Note: Any modifications made to a notification will affect all notifications of the same transaction type.

Modifying Notifications

To modify a notification using the Page Composer, click the Edit button on the top right corner of the notification. You can edit the notification using either the design view or the source view. The design view:

  • Is the basic or default view.

  • Supports region changes, such as changing the page layout, showing or hiding regions, and adding customer-defined content in regions.

  • Can be easily used by functional users who are not familiar with the Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF).

The source view:

  • Supports component changes, such as changing the task flow, editing individual component properties, and showing or hiding individual components.

  • Is targeted to technical users and requires an understanding of ADF components.

You can preview the changes before submitting them by clicking the Apply button. The Reset Page option removes all past edits (regardless of when they were made) and restores the page to its default state. Modifications made in a Worklist notification are also visible in an email notification.

The Design view supports:

  • Changing the display, including changing the header font, hiding the region header, hiding the complete region, and enabling or disabling the ability to re-size or remove regions.
