Wands (Oracle) 5.9 : Excel4apps Responsibility Profile Option

When a user logs on to the Excel4apps Wands, they will be presented with the same responsibilities that they are able to access though the Oracle. Should you wish to limit the responsibilities that can be accessed from the Excel4apps Wands proceed as follows:

  • Log on to Oracle using a responsibility that can create profile options e.g. Application Developer.
  • Navigate to the Profile menu item.
  • Create a new profile option as follows:
NameXXE4A_RESPONSIBILITY
ApplicationApplication Object Library
User Profile Name Excel4apps: Responsibility
DescriptionOptionally used to identify the responsibilities to display in Excel4apps products. 
SQL Validation  SQL="SELECT MEANING, LOOKUP_CODE into :visible_option_value, :profile_option_value from fnd_lookups where lookup_type = 'YES_NO'" COLUMN="Meaning(10)"
Access Level  Visible and Updatable at Responsibility level.

 

  • Then navigate to the System Administrator Configuration Options and tick the Show Excel4apps enabled Responsibilities Only item.
  • In Oracle, flag the applicable responsibilities for use with Excel4apps Wands by setting this new profile option to Yes.
