EnterpriseOne 8.12 Functionality with Version 8.11 SP1
Background:
In developing the Employee Self-Service user interface without using the portal, the development team had a need to be able to print out an employee’s paystub and have it emailed to them. The email portion of the process is handled by Optio but before it gets to the Optio server, it needs to be sent to an outqueue on the Enterprise Server. Because of the flow of the UBE submission application, upon requesting the paystub (UBE) the user is presented with a printer selection verification screen. It was decided that this screen would be pretty confusing to those employees that do not use EnterpriseOne regularly. So, the developer found a way around that. She submitted the UBE using a Named Event Rule (NER).
Issue:
Because of using the NER to submit the UBE, the Print Immediate parameter in the JAS.INI file doesn’t get read. This is because it is being submitted by the Enterprise Server instead of the JAS server. If the job isn’t printed, or sent to an outqueue, then the PDF never gets to the Optio server to be processed and emailed to the user.
Resolution:
After consulting with Oracle Support, we changed the VRVCC3 field of the F983051 to contain a ‘1’ in the record of the UBE Version that we wanted to Print Immediate. Apparently, this version Print Immediate parameter is used in the 8.12 applications but is also read in the 8.11 SP1 version.
Note: We are using 8.11 SP1 and this solution may or may not work with earlier versions.
