We have a custom menu that we use that calls a custom procedure that we wrote in house. Today, in IEE, this menu is setup with a PL/SQL Block that calls our custom package. Does anyone have an idea of how we could do this in cloud?

We have a background job that runs today along with this menu item. Could I set it up to call the db task instead? We normally just have the users RMB and then click this menu item and it starts the background job without taking them off of this screen.

Hi @Anna 

 

As you may already aware, custom menus with PLSQL logic is not supported in IFS Cloud and you need to refactor it. Hope following guidelines would help to decide what is good for you.

  • PLSQL logic used in the menu action can be replaced with a workflow - Create a workflow and call it using the type Execute Workflow
  • Custom menu calling a custom made procedure (your scenario) - Implement the custom procedure as a customization. Create a projection configuration, add your custom procedure as a custom action and call that action using type Execute Action

More details on custom action configurations

Hope it helps!
