Overview of Oracle Alerts:

Oracle Attachments in EBS
Keep you informed of critical activity in your database Oracle Alerts in R12
Deliver key information from your applications, in the format you choose
Provide you with regular reports on your database information
Automate system maintenance, and routine online tasks
Overview:
Oracle Alert is your complete exception control solution. Oracle Alert facilitates the flow of
information within your organization by letting you create entities called alerts to monitor your
business information and to notify you of the information you want. You can define one of two types
of alerts: an event alert or a periodic alert.
An event alert immediately notifies you of activity in your database as it occurs. When you create an
event alert, you specify the following:
A database event that you want to monitor, that is, an insert and/or an update to a specific
database table.
A SQL Select statement that retrieves specific database information as a result of the
database event.
Actions that you want Oracle Alert to perform as a result of the database event. An action
can entail sending someone an electronic mail message, running a concurrent program,
running an operating script, or running a SQL statement script. You include all the actions
you want Oracle Alert to perform, in an action set.
A periodic alert, on the other hand, checks the database for information according to a schedule
you define. When you create a periodic alert, you specify the following:
A SQL Select statement that retrieves specific database information.

The frequency that you want the periodic alert to run the SQL statement.
Actions that you want Oracle Alert to perform once it runs the SQL statement. An action
can entail sending the retrieved information to someone in an electronic mail message,
running a concurrent program, running an operating script, or running a
SQL statement script.
Defining Alerts:

Types of Alerts:
1. Periodic Alerts
Periodic alerts periodically report key information according to a schedule you define.
To define a periodic alert:
1. Navigate to the Alerts form.
2. Enter the name of the application that owns the alert in the
Application field. This application must reside in the same Oracle database as Oracle Alert.
3. Name the alert (up to 50 characters), and give it a meaningful description (up to 240 characters).
4.Enter a name for the alert that is unique within the application. Use an initial character other than a
pound sign (#), a colon (:), or a percentage sign (%).
1. Select a frequency for your periodic alert. You can choose from nine frequency options:
2. Frequency :
On Demand :-We have to run the alert to fire.
Enter which Application u want to specify alerts, name of the alert,
Click whether its periodic or Event
On Day of Month: It will fire last day of every month.
It will start from 12 AM up to 11 AM morning and each 2 hours interval the alert will fire once.
Ex: 12AM, 2 AM, 4 AM … … … … 8am, 10am.
On Day of Week : Same as On day of Month.
Every N Calendar day: It will fire in each two days.
Every N Business Day: It will fire once in each three business day.(It will not count the holidays)
Every Day: It will fire daily
Every Other Day : It will fire in a alternative day.
Every Business Day: It will fire every day except holiday.
Every Other Business Day: It will fire in an alternative business (working) day.
i.e It will not consider holidays
Import : We can import the files(which contain the query) if the query size is big, if it exceed the
memory.
After writing the Query in Select Statement area click on Verify to verify the query and
After Click on Verify Button the following message will come.
Click on OK and Save
Then click on Run to execute the query.
Click on Run button , the following screen will come. And click on OK.
2 . Click on Actions Button and enter the Action information like following screen
Details Action perform once for each exception found,

Summary Action perform once for all exception found
No exception performs when no exception was found.
2.Click on Action Details and enter the value and save.
Concurrent Program : Used to execute the Concurrent program.
Message : Used to send the message via mail.
Operating System Script: Used to run the OS Script.
SQL Statement Script : Used to run the SQL statement Script.
3. Click on Action Sets button from Alert window
Then click on Action Set Details
4. Then click on Alert Details from the Alert window and enter the value and save.
Event Alerts:
Creating an Event Alert
To create an event alert, you perform the following tasks in the order listed:
• Define the database events that will trigger your alert
• Specify the details for your alert
• Define actions for your alert
• Create action sets containing the actions you want your alert to perform
This section focuses on the first task of defining the database events that trigger your event alert and
divides the task into smaller sub–tasks.
To define an event alert:
1. Navigate to the Alerts form.
2. In the Application field, use the list of values to choose the name of the application that owns the
alert. This application must reside in the same Oracle database as Oracle Alert.
3. Name the alert (up to 50 characters), and give it a meaningful description (up to 240 characters).
Enter a name for the alert that is unique within the application. Use an initial character other than a
pound sign (#), a colon (:), or a percentage sign (%).
4. In the Type field, choose Event.
5. Check Enabled to enable your event alert.
To specify the alert details for an event or periodic alert:
1. With your alert definition displayed in the Alerts form, choose Alert Details. The Alert Details
window that appears contains three tabbed regions: Installations, Inputs, and Outputs.
2. In the Inputs tabbed region, Oracle Alert automatically displays the inputs used in your Select
statement, unless they are the implicit
inputs: :ROWID, :MAILID, :ORG_ID and :DATE_LAST_CHECKED.
The values of the implicit inputs are as follows:
• ROWID—Contains the ID number of the row where the insert or update that triggers an event alert
occurs.
• MAILID—Contains the email username of the person who enters an insert or update that triggers
an event alert.
• ORG_ID—Contains the organization ID that is selected when the alert runs.
• DATE_LAST_CHECKED—Contains the date and time that the alert was most recently checked.
3. You can optionally add a description for each input, but you must specify the data type (either
character, number, or date) for the input, because Oracle Alert uses the data type to validate the
default values for inputs you enter in the Default Values field and in the Action Set Inputs tabbed
region of the Action Sets block.
4. Enter a default value for your input. You can enter up to 240 characters. This value automatically
becomes the default value for your input in each action set you define.
5. In the Outputs tabbed region, Oracle Alert automatically displays the outputs used in your alert
Select statement without the ampersand (&) and any numbering format. You can add meaningful
descriptions for the outputs.
6. You can specify the maximum number of output characters you want to display in your detail or
summary message actions. See: Formatting Summary Message Actions:
7. If your output value is numeric, enter the SQL*Plus format mask in the Number Format field.
8. You can also check the Check for Duplicates check box to customize the combination of outputs
you want to verify as a possible duplicate exception each time the alert is checked. A duplicate
exception is an exception that existed in your database during previous alert checks. You can define
Oracle Alert to perform certain actions based on the presence of these duplicate exceptions.
9. In the Installations tabbed region, specify an Oracle ID if you want Oracle Alert to check your alert
against that specific Oracle ID. You can select only those Oracle IDs that are associated with the
application that owns your alert.
If you do not specify an Oracle ID in this region, Oracle Alert checks your alert against all installations
in your database of the application that owns your alert.
10. If you have multiple organizations defined in your Oracle Applications schema, you must specify
the organization you want the alert to run against in the Operating Unit field.
Click Action details,
In Action details Navigator
They are four types of Actions
Concurrent Program : Used to execute the Concurrent program.
Message : Used to send the message via mail.
Operating System Script: Used to run the OS Script.
SQL Statement Script : Used to run the SQL statement Script.
Check the Alert:
1. Go to Alert Manager(N) Request>Check
Then View> Request >Find from Alert Manager responsibility.
After completed Normal check the mail.
Query to Find Out Oracle Alerts

The following query finds all enabled custom alerts. You can comment out the very last two lines
(alr.enabled_flag and alr.created_by) to display all both enabled and disabled alerts.
