The Personalize Saved Searches page is displayed when you select the Seeded User Saved Searches icon from the complete Page Hierarchy Personalization page or the focused Page Hierarchy Personalization page. From this page, you can seed new end user saved searches or duplicate, update, or delete pre-seeded end-user saved searches.
Note: You can find more information about using this page in the User-Level Personalization User Interface chapter.
Attention: "Oracle-seeded" or "Admin-seeded" end user saved searches can be created only for tables (including HGrids) in a query region.
If you are an Oracle in-house E-Business Suite developer, only "Oracle-seeded" end user saved searches are displayed in the Personalize Saved Searches table. If you are an Administrator, "Oracle-seeded" and "Admin-seeded" end user saved searches are displayed and the only action you can perform on an "Oracle-seeded" saved search is to duplicate it.
Note: As an Administrator, you cannot update or delete an "Oracle-seeded" end user saved search. Instead, if you want to personalize the saved search, you should duplicate the saved search and personalize the duplicate. This ensures that if Oracle ever ships changes to an "Oracle-seeded" end user saved search, it will never override your personalizations, because you will have personalized not the "Oracle-seeded" saved search, but a duplicate of the "Oracle-seeded" saved search.
Note: When an end-user chooses to personalize a table in a Query region, the user sees all "Oracle-seeded" and "Admin-seeded" end user saved searches, in addition to the personalized saved searches he or she creates, in the Personalize Saved Searces page. Although users can select any "Oracle-seeded" or "Admin-seeded" user saved search as their default saved search, they cannot update or delete the seeded saved search. Instead they can duplicate the seeded saved search and personalize the duplicate to ensure that their personalizations are preserved when there is an upgrade. See Default Saved Search for additional information.
The Personalize Saved Searches page displays the name of each saved search, along with a description.
If you want to make a copy of a saved search, select the saved search you wish to copy and choose Duplicate. This makes a duplicate of the saved search and takes you to the Duplicate Saved Search page where you can personalize the duplicate.
If you want to modify an existing saved search, select Update to navigate to the Update Saved Search page where you can personalize the saved search. Note that as an Administrator, you cannot update "Oracle-seeded" saved searches.
If you want to delete an existing saved search, select Delete. Note that as an Administrator, you cannot delete "Oracle-seeded" saved searches.
To create a new saved search, select Create Saved Search to navigate to the Create Saved Searches page where you can create a new personalization for the Query table (or HGrid) region.
If a saved search that was personalized and specified as the default saved search by an end-user gets corrupted (for example, if Oracle ships a change to the base page that may render the personalized saved search invalid), an Error Page will result when the user runs that page. To correct the problem, you need to reset the page so the default saved search that you originally set as the system administrator renders. Click Reset User Default Saved Search to reset the page to display the default saved search that you originally set. If you didn't set a default saved search, the base page renders.This allows you to run the page again so you can then return to the Personalize Saved Searches page to either delete or correct the offending saved search.
Note: You can also reset the default saved search of a page by clicking Reset Default Saved Search on the Personalization subtab of the About Page.
Use the Display Saved Search poplist to control whether the saved search displays in the Saved Search poplist of the Saved Search panel for end users and in the Personalize Saved Searches page for end user personalizations.
