You can include a branding image in your Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator spreadsheets to mark the spreadsheets with your corporate logo or otherwise identify the source or owner of the data. Use the BNE Viewer Displays Image profile option to enable or disable branding images. Branding images are enabled by default.
You can specify the image to use at the layout level, at the style sheet level, or through the Corporate Branding Image for Oracle Applications profile option (FND_CORPORATE_BRANDING_IMAGE). You can also use the default Oracle corporate image (/OA_MEDIA/FNDSSCORP.gif).
When you create a spreadsheet using the Create Document interface, Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator first checks whether an image is defined for the specified layout. Defining an image at the layout level gives you the most fine-grained control if you want to display different images in different spreadsheets.
If no image is defined for the layout, then Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator checks whether an image is defined for the specified style sheet. Defining an image at the style sheet level lets you more easily display the same image in different spreadsheets. You cannot edit the default Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator style sheet, but you can either create a duplicate of the default style sheet or create a new style sheet, and add the image you want. Then you can assign that style sheet to all the layouts that should include that image.
If neither the layout nor the style sheet has an image defined, then Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator checks whether an image is defined for the Corporate Branding Image for Oracle Applications profile option at user, responsibility, application, or site level, in that order. This profile option lets you more easily specify the same image for broader use, depending on the level at which you set the profile option. However, the Corporate Branding Image for Oracle Applications profile option also controls the branding image displayed in Oracle Application Framework pages in Oracle E-Business Suite. If you specify a image using this profile option, then that image will appear in your Oracle Application Framework pages as well as your Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator spreadsheets. See: Branding.
If you have not defined a custom branding image at any level, then Oracle Web Applications Desktop Integrator uses the default Oracle corporate image (/OA_MEDIA/FNDSSCORP.gif).
If you have implemented branding images, then when you open a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel, the image appears in the upper left corner of the sheet.
Place the images you want to use in the OA_MEDIA virtual directory on your Web server.
Set the BNE Viewer Displays Image profile option to null or Yes.
Optionally specify custom images at the levels you want.
Specify an image when defining a layout. See: Defining Layouts.
Specify an image when defining a style sheet, and assign that style sheet to the layouts you want. See: Defining a Style Sheet.
Specify an image in the Corporate Branding Image for Oracle Applications profile option at user, responsibility, application, or site level. See: Overview of Setting User Profiles.
Alternatively, if you do not want to specify custom images, you can use the default Oracle corporate image (/OA_MEDIA/FNDSSCORP.gif).
