Workflow issue in Cloud version 25 R1

I am new to Cloud (we are using version 25R1). I have a Workflow that I want to call from a Projection Action; when a Work Task is set to “WorkDone” I want to pass in the Work Task Sequence number to a procedure and from there it attaches a pdf. The problem I have in the Workflow is that the procedure that attaches the pdf is in a custom built package but that package is not available to me in the Workflow. See screencaps attached. The first screencap shows the Task within the Workflow. I have set the "type" to "IFS API". The list of API calls is then displayed in the second screen but the custom package is not there. I want to pass in the Work Task Sequence number to a procedure within that package so the attaching can be done. 

In Applications 10 (which I used before cloud), custom built packages were visible within the environment 
Do I need to change the type to something other than "IFS API"?
Thank you for any replies.

I was able to solve this by using a custom event instead. I would prefer use a Workflow, I will see about that later.

hi ​@jdoherty ,

we can use IFS API task to invoke IFS projections. the task cannot be used to directly invoke any plsql packages if its not part of a projection.  is the custom built package published as a projection?

OK so I can’t call a package from a Workflow task (if it isn’t part of a projection).

The custom built package that contains the procedure I want to call was not published as a projection, it is within the cloud back-end database as a normal package. It is from an APPS 10 db.
