When you choose the Update Item icon from the Page Layout Personalization page or the complete Page Hierarchy Personalization page, you navigate to the Update Item page. Use the Update Item page to update the properties of an item that you created declaratively in the Create Item page of OA Personalization Framework.
Attention: You can only add a new item to a region if you are personalizing a region at the Site, Function, or Localization level. Any new item that you create while personalizing a region at the Function or Localization level may only be further personalized or updated at the same Function or Localization level at which it was created. New items that you create while personalizing a region at the Site level may later be personalized at any level. For example, you may personalize at the Responsibility level, an item that you create at the Site level.
The Update Item page displays the current personalization level, which can only be Site.
The properties that you can update for your item are dynamically determined by the item's style. Check the Usage Notes column in the table shown in Step 1 of the Create Item page for information about the specific properties that you can update for a specific item style. Note that the properties that you can set in the Update Item page may not be personalizable. Thus, for a specific item style, you may see more properties listed in the Update Item page, than what is shown for the same item style in the Personalize page.
Additional Information: If an item style allows you to specify a value for its CSS Class, you can use the CSS Styles Lookup page to first preview your item with different CSS styles before setting the CSS Class name for the item. See the section on Style Sheets for additional information.
Additional Information: If you want to update an item that allows you to specify a Destination URI, you should specify the URI syntax as:
<protocol>://<machine>:<port>/...
For example:
http://www.example.com/home/page1.htm
If you want to call an Oracle E-Business Suite function, omit the protocol://machine:port specification in the URI, and only enter OA.jsp? with the following syntax: OA.jsp?OAFunc=<Apps function you want to call>. OA Framework automatically prepends the correct syntax for the OA_HTML directory path so that your function runs properly. For example, to call the PL/SQL General Preferences page from an item, you would enter the following value for the Destination URI property:
OA.jsp?OAFunc=ICX_USER_PREFERENCES
Make sure that the page specified as the Destination URI has a link that navigates you back to the original page.
Choose Apply to update the new item and return to the previous page.
Suggestion: If you make a mistake when you update a new item, such that it causes the base page to display an error, you can sign on to Oracle E-Business Suite as the Functional Administrator responsibility and remove the personalization using the Manage Personalization Levels page.
