Step 12: Setting the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response Profile Option

You can use the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response profile option to specify whether users can respond to a group of notifications collectively from the Worklist and Notification Search pages, without navigating to the Notification Details page for each notification individually. If you enable bulk notification response by setting this profile option to Yes, a Respond button appears on the Advanced Worklist, Personal Worklist, Personal Worklist Simple Search, Personal Worklist Advanced Search, and administrator Notification Search pages. If you set the profile option to No, the Respond button is hidden, and users must always respond to each notification individually from the Notification Details page. The default value is No.

You can set the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response profile option in the System Profile Values window. This profile option can be set at site, application, responsibility, and user levels. The internal name for this profile option is WF_BULK_RESPONSE.

Note: Users can access the Worklist pages from different contexts. For example, if users navigate to the Worklist pages from the Oracle E-Business Suite home page or from a Notification Detail Link attachment to an e-mail notification, no responsibility context is set. If users navigate to the Worklist pages from within another Oracle E-Business Suite product, then the context is set according to the responsibility through which the pages were accessed. Consequently, if you set the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response profile option at responsibility level, that setting applies only when users access the Worklist pages through the corresponding responsibility. Check how users access the Worklist pages in your Oracle E-Business Suite installation, and ensure that you set the WF: Enable Bulk Notification Response profile option for all levels needed for the type of responses you want to enable.
