Use a REST Resource to Manage Delete Groups

You can now manage and create or edit delete groups using the  Delete Groups REST resource. The resource allows you to add or remove items, structures, components, change orders, and new item requests to delete groups.

To fetch the entity details, you must pass the appropriate header parameters in the REST resource.

Here is an example that shows these capabilities.

Request body - Create delete group with all entities

Request Body - Create Delete Group with All Entities

The following image shows the response body where the delete group is created with all entities.

Response body - Delete group created with all entities

Response Body - Delete Group Created with All Entities

You can also perform a constraint check on the entities and submit the delete group for deletion using checkConstraints and submitForDelete custom actions in the REST resource request.

This feature benefits your business by allowing you to programmatically create, delete, and manage your delete groups. It also allows you to programmatically add or remove items, structures, components, change orders, and new item requests to delete groups.

Steps to Enable

Review the REST service definition in the REST API guides to leverage (available from the Oracle Help Center > your apps service area of interest > APIs & Schema). If you are new to Oracle's REST services you may want to begin with the Quick Start section.

Tips And Considerations

  • To fetch a delete group's details, you can also use DeleteGroupName as a query parameter in the GET request URL.
  • You can add more than one item, structure, component, change order, and new item request to a delete group in a single POST call.
