7 Configuring the Managed

Attachments Solution
This chapter describes how to configure the Managed Attachments solution for Oracle E-
Business Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft, or another business application. It describes how to run
configuration scripts, configure Content Server components, customize the solution, integrate
Oracle AutoVue and Oracle Distributed Document Capture, and configure authentication and
security.

Note:
For background information on the Managed Attachments solution, see Section 1.4.

This chapter covers the following topics:

 Section 7.1, "System Requirements for the Managed Attachments Solution"


 Section 7.2, "Running Configuration Scripts to Enable Managed Attachments"
 Section 7.3, "Configuring the Content Server Components"
 Section 7.4, "Configuring the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework"
 Section 7.5, "Configuring Managed Attachments Settings"
 Section 7.6, "Customizing the Managed Attachments Solution"
 Section 7.7, "Configuring Authentication and Security"
 Section 7.8, "Configuring Oracle AutoVue Document Viewing"
 Section 7.9, "Configuring Oracle Distributed Document Capture"
 Section 7.10, "Testing the Managed Attachments Solution"
 Section 7.11, "Configuring Content Server Logging"
 Section 7.12, "Uninstalling Adapter Components on Content Server"

7.1 System Requirements for the Managed


Attachments Solution
In addition to all other requirements listed in Section 1.7, the Managed Attachments
solution includes additional requirements. General Managed Attachments
requirements are listed in this section, and supported configuration and certification
information, such as browsers, is available at:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/content/
documentation/documentation-155348.html

Oracle WebCenter Content: Imaging 11g Release 1 (11.1.1 or higher)

Installation of Imaging 11g is required, even if only configuring the Managed


Attachments solution. This is because AXF is part of the Imaging deployment.

Note:

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
The Managed Attachments solution is supported on WebSphere Application Server
when Content Server is running on WebSphere Application Server and Application
Extension Framework (Imaging Server) is running on Oracle WebLogic Server.

Oracle WebCenter Content Server 11g Release 1 (11.1.1 or higher)

The Managed Attachments solution supports the following Content Server search
engines.

 Metadata Only Search


 Database – Full Text Search
 Oracle Text – Full Text Search
Note:
The Folders_g component by default sets a variable called AuthorDelete=true,
which allows users without delete privileges on a security group to delete documents
if they are the author. If using the Folders_g Content Server component with the
Managed Attachments solution, be aware that this variable's setting may override
Managed Attachments dPrivilege or AppAdapterGrantPrivilege deletion settings.

Oracle E-Business Suite

 For Managed Attachments with Oracle E-Business Suite Forms-based


entities, Managed Attachments requires that the EBS FND attachments
framework be configured for the specific entity. Although Managed
Attachments is an alternative attachments framework to FND attachments,
Managed Attachments leverages the underlying FND attachments
infrastructure.
 For Managed Attachments with Oracle E-Business OAF-based entities,
Managed Attachments requires that the OAF page associated with the entity
have a Personalize Page option with the About this page link. The OAF page
should support site level personalization so that the Managed Attachment
button can be added manually. The About this page link obtains the OAF
entity details, such as the primary key. OAF-based pages without this option
are not supported for Managed Attachments.

7.2 Running Configuration Scripts to Enable


Managed Attachments
This section describes running the configuration scripts listed in Table 7-1, following
the steps described in the sections below. The first script configures AXF elements,
and is required for all Managed Attachments configurations, including the Enterprise
Application Adapter Framework. The remaining scripts apply to specific business
applications as noted in Table 7-1.

 Section 7.2.1, "Configuring AXF Elements for Managed Attachments"


 Section 7.2.2, "Enabling Managed Attachments for Oracle E-Business Suite
Forms Applications"
 Section 7.2.3, "Enabling Managed Attachments for Oracle E-Business Suite

TAWAZUN
2. Modify parameters in the AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql script to match
your environment.

a. Change the system name and port for the RIDC_CONNECTION_STR


parameter to match your Content Server installation. The port
number should correspond to that of the Content Server's Intradoc
server port that receives RIDC calls. (To find the value for the
Content Server port, locate the IntradocServerPort config value in
config.cfg.)
b. Change the system name and port for the UCM_CONNECTION_STR
parameter to match your Content Server installation. The port
number should correspond to that of the Content Server's web
server port.
c. Change the [Content ServerProfile] and [ResultTemplate] values in
the UCM_CONNECTION_STR parameter for your configuration.
These values are used in the Managed Attachments URL that
invokes the Content Server attachments framework search, as
described in Section C.1.4.
 Profile values include: EBSProfile (default), PSFTProfile,
and UniversalProfile (for the Enterprise Application
Adapter Framework). For details about customizing
profiles, see Section 7.6.5.
 Result template values
include: EBS_LIST (adapter_list_results_template.htm),
PSFT_LIST (ps_adapter_list_results_template.htm),
and Universal_LIST (universal_adapter_list_results_tem
plate.htm, for the Enterprise Application Adapter
Framework). For details about customizing results
templates, see Section 7.6.13.

Note:
If you are using the AXF for BPM infrastructure, open the
AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql file in any editor.
Replace .imaging. with .ecm. and save the file.

3. On the Oracle WebCenter Content middle tier, log in to the AXF Configuration
Database as the user who owns the Imaging schema and run the
AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql script.

To execute the script, enter:

@AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql

Note:
For information about creating schemas before or after Oracle WebCenter
Content installation, see "Creating Oracle WebCenter Content Schemas with
the Repository Creation Utility" in Oracle WebCenter Content Installation
Guide.

rows that apply to your particular configuration.

7.2.3 Enabling Managed Attachments for Oracle E-


Business Suite OAF Applications
In order to link OAF page details with documents checked into Content Server, the
OAF page's business entity and primary key values must be stored in the Oracle E-
Business Suite OAF AXF database tables described in Section C.3. This configuration
involves these steps:

 Populating the database via the OAF_AXF_EBS_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql


script, which populates the tables with values for certain sample OAF pages,
as described in Section 7.2.3.1.
 Modify the sample key values for your OAF pages, using values you identify
in Section 7.2.3.2.

7.2.3.1 Populating the OAF AXF Database Tables With Sample Key Values

Table 7-2 lists the sample key values populated by the


OAF_AXF_EBS_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql script for the specified OAF pages.

 The OAF page location is used as the AXF_OAF_PAGE value in


the OAF_AXF_CONFIGS Table (Oracle E-Business Suite OAF). See the example
table in Section C.3.1.2.
 The following key values are used in the OAF_AXF_CMD_PARAMS Table
(Oracle E-Business Suite OAF). See the example table in Section C.3.4.2.
o Entity (businessObjectType); for example, REQ_HEADERS
o Primary Key (businessObjectKey1); for example,

7.2.3.2 Identifying Key Values for Your OAF Pages

This section provides steps for identifying the primary field(s) to link the OAF page
with Managed Attachments functionality, and identifying the page name and fields to
use as labels.

How you identify the needed information depends on the OAF page's contents, as
described in the following scenarios:

 Section 7.2.3.2.1, "With Both Attachment Information and Primary Keys


Present"
 Section 7.2.3.2.2, "With Attachment Information Present, But Not Primary
Keys"
 Section 7.2.3.2.3, "With Neither Attachment Information Nor Primary Keys
Present"

7.2.3.2.1 With Both Attachment Information and Primary Keys Present

Ideally, the needed Oracle E-Business Suite attachment and primary key details are
present in the OAF page's XML file. In this case, follow these steps to locate required
mapping information.

1. Navigate to the OAF page and click the About this page link at the bottom.

For example, navigate to Employee Self Service, then the Appraisals OAF
page, and click the About this page link.

2. Note the full path of the page's XML file. For example:
3. /oracle/apps/per/selfservice/appraisals/webui/EmpMyAppraisalsPG

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
4. Search the XML file for an <oa:attachment> XML tag that contains view
object name and primary key details for the business entity associated with
the view.

For example, the following <oa:attachment> section provides these key


values, highlighted in bold characters.

<oa:attachmentImage id="EMPInprogressJournal" prompt="Journal"


viewName="EmpMyAppraisalsInProgressVO" autoCommitEnabled="true"
enableDocumentCatalog="false">

<oa:entityMappings>

<oa:entityMap id="APPRAISEEentityMap" entityId="APPRAISEE_JOURNAL"


showAll="false">

<oa:primaryKeys>

<oa:primaryKey id="primaryKey1" viewAttr="AppraisalId"/>

<oa:primaryKey id="primaryKey2" viewAttr="AppraiseePersonId"/>

</oa:primaryKeys>

<oa:categoryMappings>

<oa:categoryMap id="categoryMap1" categoryName="MISC"/>

</oa:categoryMappings>

</oa:entityMap>

</oa:entityMappings>

</oa:attachmentImage>

5. Note the identifying values. You use them in Section 7.2.3 to map OAF page
details with Managed Attachments.

In the example, the following values were located:

 Entity = APPRAISEE_JOURNAL
 Primary Key = APPRAISAL_ID and APPRAISEE_PERSON_ID
 View Object = EmpMyAppraisalsInProgressVO
 View Attribute = AppraisalId and AppraiseePersonId

7.2.3.2.2 With Attachment Information Present, But Not Primary Keys

In this case, the OAF page's XML file contains attachment object information (view
object and entity), but not the corresponding primary key. Follow these steps to
determine the view object and entity name from the XML file, then query the
FND_DOCUMENT_ENTITIES table to determine the primary key.

1. Navigate to the OAF page and click the About this page link at the bottom.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
For example, navigate to iProcurement, then Requisitions, then the
Requisition Details OAF page, and click the About this page link.

2. Note the full path of the page's XML file. For example:
3. /oracle/apps/icx/por/reqmgmt/webui/ReqDetailsPG

4. From the APPS schema, run the following query against the
FND_DOCUMENT_ENTITIES table, replacing EntityName with the entity
identified in the XML file.

SELECT * FROM FND_DOCUMENT_ENTITIES WHERE ENTITY_NAME=EntityName

For example, the following xml file's <oa:attachment> section provides these
key values, highlighted in bold characters:

<oa:attachmentLink id="Attachment" viewName="ReqHeaderVO"


prompt="Attachment">

<oa:entityMappings>

<oa:entityMap entityId="REQ_HEADERS" id="entityMap1"


insertAllowed="false" updateAllowed="false" deleteAllowed="false">

<oa:categoryMappings>

<oa:categoryMap categoryName="REQ Internal" id="ReqInternal"/>

<oa:categoryMap categoryName="Approver" id="ToApprover"/>

<oa:categoryMap categoryName="Buyer" id="ToBuyer"/>

<oa:categoryMap categoryName="Receiver" id="ToReceiver"/>

<oa:categoryMap categoryName="Vendor" id="ToSupplier"/>

</oa:categoryMappings>

</oa:entityMap>

</oa:entityMappings>

</oa:attachmentLink>

The following information is known:

Entity = REQ_HEADERS

View Object = ReqHeaderVO

5. Based on the primary key column, determine its corresponding view attribute.

a. Run the FND_DOCUMENT_ENTITIES query for the REQ_HEADERS


entity.

SELECT * FROM FND_DOCUMENT_ENTITIES WHERE


ENTITY_NAME='REQ_HEADERS'

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
The query returns the primary key column name:
REQ_HEADER_ID.

b. Click the About this page link, select View Object and find the
corresponding attribute name, which matches the column name:
RequisitionHeaderId.
 Primary Key = REQUISITION_HEADER_ID
 View Attribute = RequisitionHeaderId
6. Note the identifying values. You use them in Section 7.2.3 to map OAF page
details with Managed Attachments.

In the example, the following values were located:

 Entity = REQ_HEADERS
 Primary Key = REQUISITION_HEADER_ID
 View Object = ReqHeadersVO
 View Attribute = RequisitionHeaderId

7.2.3.2.3 With Neither Attachment Information Nor Primary Keys Present

In this case, the XML file associated with the page does not contain any attachment
information. Follow these steps to determine the needed information.

1. Navigate to the OAF page and click the About this page link at the bottom.

For example, navigate to Purchasing, then Buyer Work Center, then Orders,
then click the Order Number. Click the About this page link.

Note the full path of the page's XML file. For example:

/oracle/apps/po/document/order/webui/OrderPG

The page's XML file does not contain any Oracle E-Business Suite attachment
information.

2. Select Page Definition, then click the Expand All link.


3. Determine the view object.

In the View Object column, locate the view object listed the maximum
number of times. The view object used in the top-level region is the driving
view object for the page. In the example shown in Figure 7-1, the view object
is: PoHeaderMergeVO.

Figure 7-1 Determining the View Object

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
Description of "Figure 7-1 Determining the View Object"

4. Determine the entity (driving table).

Click the view object link to display details for the view object. For example,
the entity (driving table) for the PoHeaderMergerVO view object
is PO_HEADERS_MERGE_V.

5. Determine the entity's primary keys.


a. See the Oracle E-Business Suite Electronic Technical Reference
Manual at the following location:

http://etrm.oracle.com/pls/etrm/etrm_search.search

b. Enter a search that includes the entity name to obtain the table
details. For example, for the PO_HEADERS_MERGE_V entity, enter:

http://etrm.oracle.com/pls/etrm/etrm_pnav.show_object?
c_name=PO_HEADERS_MERGE_V&c_owner=APPS&c_type=VIEW

c. From the search results, display the view or table details. The
example shown in Figure 7-2 provides view details.

Figure 7-2 Displaying View Details

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
Description of "Figure 7-2 Displaying View Details"

d. Select the table that best describes the selected view (in this
example, PO_HEADERS_ALL).
e. Figure 7-3 shows the primary key details associated with the
table. Determine its primary key (in this
example, PO_HEADER_ID).
f. Figure 7-3 Displaying Table Details

Description of "Figure 7-3 Displaying Table Details"

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
6. Based on the primary key, obtain its corresponding view attribute.

Return to the OAF page, clicking the About this page link and clicking
the Expand All link. Select the view object that displays most often
(PoHeaderMergeVO, for example). From the Attributes list that displays,
determine the attribute name, which typically varies only slightly from the
primary key name (for example, PO_HEADER_ID versus PoHeaderId).

7. Note the identifying values. You use them in Section 7.2.3 to map OAF page
details with Managed Attachments.

In the example, the following values were located:

 Entity = PO_HEADERS_MERGE_V
 Primary Key = PO_HEADER_ID
 View Object = PoHeaderMergeVO
 View Attribute = PoHeaderId

7.2.4 Enabling Managed Attachments for Oracle


PeopleSoft
The main configuration steps include:

 Configuring each Oracle PeopleSoft entity's primary key values in the Oracle
PeopleSoft AXF database tables, described in Section C.4. The
AXF_PSFT_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql script is provided as a starting point. It
contains sample values for PeopleSoft entities such as work order, sales
contract, and purchase requisition. You can modify the sample key values to
reflect your Oracle PeopleSoft pages, using the primary keys you noted
in Section 3.3.
 Specifying an Oracle PeopleSoft role to grant users permission.

Follow the steps in this section to enable Managed Attachments for Oracle
PeopleSoft.

1. Locate the AXF_PSFT_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql sample script in this folder:

MW_HOME/ECM_HOME/axf/adapters/psft/

2. Log in to the Oracle PeopleSoft database as a user with administrative


privileges.
3. Modify the sample script to include the values you identified for your Oracle
PeopleSoft entities in Section 3.3, then run the script.

To execute the script, enter:

@AXF_PSFT_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql

4. Specify an Oracle PeopleSoft role in the PS_AXF_COMMANDS Table to grant


users permission to use a specified user interface item. For example, you
might change the Employee value to PeopleSoft User or an appropriate
Oracle PeopleSoft user role. See Section C.4.2.2.

profile, as described later in this section.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
From Component Manager, install the component, enable it, and restart the Content
Server. For more information, see Section 7.3.1 or "Creating Components Using the
Component Wizard" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administering Oracle WebCenter
Content.

7.4.1.1 Optionally Renaming Component Files

If you opt to rename files, follow these steps to unzip the component, rename certain
files for your business application, and zip the files into a newly named file. You will
need an uppercase business application name (for example, BIZAPP), a lowercase
name (for example, bizapp), and a long name (for example, ExampleBusinessApp).

1. Back up the AppAdapterUniversal.zip file.

The zip file is located at:

ECM_HOME/ucm/Distribution/AppAdapter

2. Unzip the AppAdapterUniversal.zip file.


3. Replace the word Universal in the file name with the business application
name, matching case (for example, replace Universal with BIZAPP).

Note that this string is used in the ResultTemplate name used in the Managed
Attachments URL (for example, ResultTemplate=BIZAPP_LIST). For details
about the result template, see Section 7.6.13.

4. Locate the universal_AppAdapter_strings.htm file and replace all occurrences


of the string Application with your business application long name (for
example, replace Application with ExampleBusinessApp).
5. Search each file for instances of the string Universal and replace them with
the name you specified in step 3, matching case (for example, BIZAPP).
6. Search each file for instances of the string universal and replace them with
your business application's lowercase name (for example, bizapp).
7. Zip the files into the newly named file (for example, AppAdapterBuzzApp.zip).

7.4.1.2 Optionally Customizing the Framework Layout, Images, and Profile

 To change the look-and-feel of the result template file, customize the result
template file (originally named Universal_LIST,
universal_adapter_list_results_template.htm). See Section 7.6.13.
 To customize images, replace the images in the resources\publish\images
folder.
 To customize the Content Server profile used, change the UniversalProfile file.
See Section 7.6.5.

7.4.2 Configuring the SOAP Service Call and Managed


Attachments URL Display

7.5 Configuring Managed Attachments


Settings
After configuring the Content Server components as described in Section 7.3, use the
Managed Attachments administration interface to configure its settings. This section
provides general configuration information, and Section 7.6 provides detailed
customization instruction and examples.

Settings Order of Precedence

The order of precedence of the configuration settings is as follows.

 role specific (highest)


 business context specific
 application entity specific
 application instance specific
 global (lowest)

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
Keep this order of precedence in mind when configuring attachment settings. For
example, configuring a role that enables scanning results in scanning disabled for all
other roles.

Note:
This section describes how to edit Managed Attachments settings in the
administration interface. As an alternative, you can customize settings by directly
editing the preferences.hda file configuration file where the settings are stored, as
described in Section 7.5.2.

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from


the Administration menu.

The Configure Managed Attachments page displays, as shown in Figure 7-4.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
2. Edit Global Configuration variables if needed, and click Update.

Use these settings to configure Content Server environment variables for the
adapter, as described in Section 7.5.1 and Section 7.6.

3. Add, edit, or delete Attachment Relationship Attributes.

Use this area to configure custom relationships between attached documents


and business entities, as described in Section 7.6.10. For example, enable
users to print document attachments for certain business entities but not for
others.

4. Add, edit, or delete Entity Specific Configurations.

Use this area to override global settings for a specified business entity or
application, as described in Section 7.6.3. For example, override a global
setting that displays the From Repository button and hide the button for a
specified business entity.

5. Add, edit, or delete Role Specific Configurations or Business Context


Specific Configurations.

Use these areas to configure which Managed Attachments features and


buttons are displayed and available, based on either:

 the user's assigned role, as described in Section 7.6.1. For


example, configure all users granted a read role to have read-only
Managed Attachments access.
 the user's business application context, as described in Section
7.6.2. For example, display and enable the Scan button only when
the businessObjectContext passed from the business
application=ScanContext.

7.5.1 Working With Global Configuration Variables


Use the Global Configuration section of the Configure Managed Attachments page
to change global environment variables from their default values.

Global configuration variables are grouped on the page as follows:

7.6.1 Customizing Settings Based on Users' Assigned


Roles
You can customize settings based on user role using Managed Attachments
Administration. (For general information, see Section 7.5.) This enables you to retain
a global value while customizing settings for specific user roles. For example, you
might use this feature to limit Managed Attachments access to read-only for Content
Server users who are assigned a read-only role.

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from


the Administration menu.

The Configure Managed Attachments page displays.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
2. Scroll to the Role Specific Configuration settings in the lower portion of the
page and click Add.
3. In the Add Role Specific Configuration page shown in Figure 7-5, enter fields
to customize a Managed Attachments variable based on user role and
click Update. This example specifies the following settings:
 Configuration Name: AppAdapterGrantPrivilege
 Value: R
 Role: readRole

The AppAdapterGrantPrivilege variable specifies the access level to grant to


users. This example assumes that you have configured and assigned the user
role (readRole, in this example) using User Admin functions in Content Server.

Figure 7-5 Example Role Specific Configuration

Description of "Figure 7-5 Example Role Specific Configuration"

7.6.2 Customizing Settings Based on Users' Business


Context
You can customize settings based on user's business context using Managed
Attachments Administration. (For general information, see Section 7.5.) This enables
you to retain the global value while customizing it for specific business contexts. For
example, you might use this feature to display and enable the Scan button only
when the user's business context (businessObjectContext passed from the business
application) is a certain value (such as ScanContext).

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from


the Administration menu.

The Configure Managed Attachments page displays.

2. Scroll to the Business Context Specific Configuration settings in the lower


portion of the page and click Add.
3. In the Business Context Specific Configuration page shown in Figure 7-6, enter
fields to customize a Managed Attachments variable based on business
context, and click Update.

The example shown in Figure 7-6 configures the Scan button to display when
the businessObjectContext passed from the business application equals
ScanContext. This example specifies the following settings:

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
 Configuration Name: AppAdapterScanBtnVisible
 Value: true
 Role: ScanContext

Figure 7-6 Example Business Context Specific Configuration

Description of "Figure 7-6 Example Business Context Specific Configuration"

4. Configure the business application table to pass in the ScanContext value


from the business application, just as you would configure key labels/values
(labelValues).
 For each Oracle PeopleSoft page to be configured, insert a row in
the PS_AXF_CMD_PARAMS table that passes ScanContext. In Table
C-36, see the row in which
AXF_PARAM_NAME=businessObjectContext and
AXF_CONSTANT_VALUE=ScanContext.
 For each Oracle E-Business Suite OAF page, insert a row in the
OAF_AXF_CMD_PARAMS table that passes ScanContext. In Table
C-30, see the row in which
AXF_PARAM_NAME=businessObjectContext and
AXF_CONSTANT_VALUE=ScanContext.

7.6.3 Customizing Settings at Business Entity or


Application Levels
You can customize settings at application and business entity levels using Managed
Attachments Administration. (For general information, see Section 7.5.) This enables
you to retain the global value while customizing it for specific business entities. For
example, you might enable the Scan button to permit scanning globally, but disable
it for a specific business entity by hiding the button.

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from


the Administration menu.

The Configure Managed Attachments page displays. Currently selected global


settings are displayed under the Global Configuration heading.

2. Scroll to the Entity Specific Configuration settings in the lower portion of


the page and click Add.
3. In the Add Entity Specific Configuration page shown in Figure 7-7, enter fields
to override the global setting for an entity or application.
 To override at the business entity level, complete all fields. The
example values below configure the From Repository button to

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
display for the ExpenseClaims business entity only, regardless of
the global setting.
 To override at the application level, leave the Object Name field
blank. Doing so in the example below would display the From
Repository button for all business entities of the EBS_Instance
application, regardless of the global setting.

Field Description
Application Name Identifies the business application

Object Name Identifies the business entity

Configuration Name Global configuration variable to set for business entity

Configuration Value Variable value to set for business entity

Description of "Figure 7-7 Example Entity Specific Configuration"

7. Note:
8. You must complete either the Application Name or Object Type field. Entering
an object type without an application name applies the setting to the business
entity of all applications with that object type.

7.6.4 Customizing the Document Type Used For New


Attachments
A Content Server document type is selected by default when users click
the New button to attach and check in a document. Using preferences.hda settings,
you can specify a different default document type. In addition, you can specify
document types on a global, application, or business entity level. For example, you
might want to check in all new documents for an expenses business entity using a
custom document type geared toward expense attachments.

Follow these steps.

1. On Content Server, create or modify a document type.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
For more information about document types, see the Content Server
documentation.

2. In the preferences.hda file, add a new row in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration


resultset. For general information, see Section 7.5.2.
3. Insert an entry that identifies the document type to use as the default type for
a specified business entity, where:
 name: afDocType
 value: document type key
 dAFApplication: Application to which to assign this document type
 dAFBusinessObjectType: Business entity within application to
which to assign document type

Example 7-3 sets the document type ExpenseClaimsType as the default type
when users attach documents to the ExpenseClaims business entity (within
the PSFT_Instance application).

Example 7-3 Custom Default Document Type For Expenses Business


Entity

afDocType

ExpenseClaimsType

PSFT_Instance

ExpenseClaims

4. Restart the Content Server.

7.6.5 Customizing the Content Server Profile Used


The adapter provides a default Content Server profile for each business application:

 EBSProfile for Oracle E-Business Suite


 PSFTProfile for Oracle PeopleSoft
 UniversalProfile for the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework

You set the profile when running the AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.sql script


in Section 7.2.1. You can copy and customize the profile, then assign it using one of
the following methods, depending on customization needs. For example, you might
want to add metadata fields to the profile.

Note:
If you use custom profiles, generic error messages display by default instead of
application-specific error messages. To display custom error messages, override the
resource include - af_custom_error_msg_display. In the overridden resource include,
set the error message to afErrorMsg.

7.6.5.1 Changing the Profile Globally

Follow these steps to change the global profile used.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
1. From the Content Server Configuration Manager, copy the default profile
provided (EBSProfile, PSFTProfile, or UniversalProfile). To view these profiles,
navigate to the Profiles tab in Configuration Manager.
2. Add new rules as needed. For example, add new metadata fields.
3. In the UCM_CONNECTION_STR parameter (trigger value) of the
AXF_SOLUTION_PARAMETERS table, modify the URL to point to the new
profile.

For more information, see Section C.1.4.

7.6.5.2 Specifying a Profile For a Specific Business Entity or Application

Follow these steps to modify the profile for a specific business entity or application.

1. From the Content Server Configuration Manager, copy the default profile
provided (EBSProfile, PSFTProfile, or UniversalProfile). To view these profiles,
navigate to the Profiles tab in Configuration Manager.
2. Add new rules as needed. For example, add new metadata fields.
3. In the preferences.hda file, add a new row in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration
resultset. For general information, see Section 7.5.2.
4. Insert an entry that identifies the Content Server profile to use for a specified
business entity, where:
 name: dpTriggerValue
 value: Key of new Content Server profile
 dAFApplication: Application to which to assign this profile
 dAFBusinessObjectType: Business entity within application to
which to assign the profile

Example 7-4 sets a profile called OrderPayableProfile to use when users


attach or scan documents in the OrderPayables business entity within the
EBS_Instance application.

it, or true to display it.
3. To configure a button's display at a business entity level, create an entity-
specific configuration by clicking Add under Entity Specific
Configurations and completing fields as described in Section 7.6.3.

7.6.7 Customizing Scanning


This section describes methods of customizing scanning functionality using Oracle
Distributed Document Capture. To customize scanning, you must also configure
standard scanning options, as described in Section 7.9. It includes the following
topics:

 Section 7.6.7.1, "Enabling or Disabling Scanning"


 Section 7.6.7.2, "Configuring an Alternate Scan Profile For a Business Entity"
 Section 7.6.7.3, "Modifying the Document Classification Used"

7.6.7.1 Enabling or Disabling Scanning

You can enable or disable scanning at the global, application, or business entity
level. For example, you might disable scanning globally, then add an entity specific

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
 Object Type: OrderPayables
 Configuration Name: AppAdapterScanBtnVisible
 Configuration Value: true

7.6.7.2 Configuring an Alternate Scan Profile For a Business Entity

The adapter provides these default business application scan profiles. Each points to
an application-specific field:

 EBSScanProfile references the EBSAppScanProfiles application field


 PSFTScanProfile references the PSFTAppScanProfiles application field
 UniversalScanProfile references the UniversalAppScanProfiles application field

You can customize the scan profile used, by copying the profile appropriate for your
business application, modifying it to reference another application field, and
configuring it for one or more business entities, as described in the following steps.

1. Copy the scan profile that applies to your business application, saving it with a
new name.
2. Create all required schema elements, including the AppScanProfiles
application field, table, and view.

To change the application field reference, log in to Content Server. In


Configuration Manager, navigate to the Rules tab.
Select PSFTScanRule, EBSScanRule, or UniversalScanRule, click Edit on
the Side Effects tab, and update the ScanProfileKey field to point to another
application field.

3. In the preferences.hda file, add a new row in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration


resultset.
4. Insert an entry that includes the afScanProfile setting, identifies the scan
profile to use, and the application and business entity in which it applies.

Example 7-5 shows a scan profile called MyPIMScanProfile enabled for the PIM
business entity only.

7.6.7.3 Modifying the Document Classification Used

The adapter provides the default business application document classifications for
scanning listed in Table 7-13. Each classification includes a set of Content Server
application fields, a table, and a view.

To modify the classification:

1. Log in to Content Server. In Configuration Manager, navigate to the


EBSDocClassView, PSFTDocClassView, or UniversalDocClassView.
2. Edit the document classification and scan type values. For more information,
see Section 7.9.4.

7.6.8 Customizing Managed Attachments Page Images


The adapter provides standard images for Managed Attachments display, which you
can customize. For example, you might replace the Oracle blue waves image with
one specific for your organization. To change images, override the resource
include af_ebs_define_image_locations. For sample implementations,
see AppAdapter_JS_resource.htm for Oracle E-Business Suite
or ps_AppAdapter_Js_resource.htm for Oracle PeopleSoft.

Note:
Customizing images for Managed Attachments requires advanced knowledge of
Content Server configuration and customization. Be sure to back up the appropriate
files before making modifications.

7.6.9 Customizing the Style Sheet (CSS) Used


The adapter provides a standard style sheet for the Managed Attachments page. You
can change it by overriding resource includes. For sample implementations,
see AppAdapter_CSS_resource.htm for Oracle E-Business Suite
or ps_AppAdapter_CSS_resource.htm for Oracle PeopleSoft.

Note:
Customizing style sheets for Managed Attachments requires advanced knowledge of
Content Server configuration and customization. Be sure to back up the appropriate
files before making modifications.

7.6.10 Configuring Attachment Relationship Attributes


Attachment relationship attributes allow you to store relationship metadata
(information about relationships between a document and its business entity) upon
attaching documents in Managed Attachments.

For example, suppose you have one document attached to two work order entities
(WO1 and WO2), and want to allow users to print the document from WO1, but not

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
from WO2. In this case, you would create a print attribute as an application field on
Content Server, and then specify a print relationship attribute for the WO1 business
entity in Managed Attachments Administration (or in the preferences.hda file). The
print attribute would be displayed on the Update page to end-users for the WO1
entity only, allowing them to print the attached document.

Important Points About Attachment Relationship Attributes

 You can configure attachment relationship attribute for new document check-
in, but not for documents attached through scanning.
 Adding a relationship attribute creates a new Application field in Content
Server for the relationship attribute if one does not exist. You can update the
Application field using Content Server Admin Applets - Configuration Manager.
Adding a relationship attribute also adds an entry in the
AFRelationshipAttributes section of the preferences.hda file described
in Section 7.5.2.
 At run-time, attachment relationship attribute values are stored in the
AFRelationshipAttributes table; see Section C.5.3.

Follow these steps to configure attachment relationship attributes.

1. On Content Server, open Configuration Manager and navigate to


the Application Fields tab.
2. Add one or more application fields.
3. Navigate to the Rules tab.
4. Edit the AFRelationshipAttributes rule. Add the application fields you added in
step 2 to this rule.
5. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from
the Administration menu.
6. On the Configure Managed Attachments page, scroll to the Attachment
Relationship Attributes settings in the lower portion of the page, and
click Add.

The Add Attachment Relationship Attribute page displays.

7.6.11 Configuring Revision-Specific Mode


By default, each attachment on the Managed Attachments page provides access to
the most recent revision of the document. In certain cases, however, you may want
to configure one or more business entities to provide access to the revision that
was attached, even if the document was later updated on Content Server. In this
mode, users can see that a more recent revision exists, and if needed, view it and
make it the attached revision.

Follow these steps to configure a business entity to display the attached revision
instead of the most recent revision.

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from the Administration


menu.
2. On the Configure Managed Attachments page, scroll to the Entity Specific
Configuration settings in the lower portion of the page, and click Add.

The Add Entity Specific Configuration page displays.

Alternatively, follow these steps to configure revision-specific mode using the


preferences.hda file.

1. Open the preferences.hda file, and add a new row in the


AFRevisionSpecificEntities resultset. (For general information, see Section
7.5.2.)

Each row in the resultset represents one business entity for which to enable
revision specific attachments, where:.

 dAFApplication refers to the business application for which to


enable the revision feature.
 dAFBusinessObjectType refers to the business object for which to
enable the revision feature.

Example 7-6 shows revision-specific mode configured for a CallRecords


business object for an Oracle E-Business Suite application.

7.6.12 Changing the Result Count

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
The Managed Attachments page displays a specific number of attachment results
per page (referred to as ResultCount). If the number of results exceeds ResultCount,
previous and next page controls display on the page. You can change it to another
number (such as 20) by specifying a new ResultCount value in Managed
Attachments configuration. See Section 7.5.1.

7.6.13 Changing the Result Template


The Managed Attachments page uses a result template to determine its display. The
Content Server result template specifies the Managed Attachments user interface.
The adapter provides these result templates:

 The Oracle E-Business Suite template, adapter_list_results_template.htm, is


referred to as EBS_LIST.
 The Oracle PeopleSoft template, ps_adapter_list_results_template.htm, is
referred to as PSFT_LIST.
 The Enterprise Application Adapter Framework
template, universal_adapter_list_results_template.htm, is referred to
as Universal_LIST. See Section 7.4.1.2.

Follow these steps to identify an alternate result template for an application or


business entity.

Note:
Customizing the result template requires advanced knowledge of Content Server
administration and customization.

1. Create a copy of the appropriate default result template and register the
template with a new name, preferably in a new component.
 The Oracle E-Business Suite template is located at:

UCM_HOME/custom/AppAdapterEBS/
adapter_list_results_template.htm

 The Oracle PeopleSoft template is located at:

UCM_HOME/custom/AppAdapterPSFT/
ps_adapter_list_results_template.htm

 The Enterprise Application Adapter Framework template is located


at:

UCM_HOME/custom/AppAdapterUniversal/
universal_adapter_list_results_template.htm

2. In the preferences.hda file, add an entry in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration


section as follows:
3. ResultTemplate

4. Template Reference

5. Application Name

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
6. Business Entity

In Example 7-7, all requests to Managed Attachments for the WorkOrder


business entity would use the EBS_WORK_ORDER_LIST custom result template
instead of the default Oracle E-Business Suite template.

7.6.14 Setting Default Columns


You can specify the default columns to display to users in the Managed Attachments
page. (When the user clicks Reset in the Configure Fields for Display page, default
columns are listed in the Main Information section of the page.)

The column defaults are title, type, author, date, and revision as follows:

dDocTitle,dDocType,dDocAuthor,dInDate,dRevision

To set alternate default columns for an application or business entity, follow these
steps.

1. In the preferences.hda file, add an entry in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration


section.
2. Set the value of the AppAdapterDefaultDisplayColumns configuration variable
as a comma-delimited list containing Content Server metadata field names.

In Example 7-8, the first entry sets document title, type, author, and date as
the default columns for the EBS_Instance application. The second entry
overrides this setting for the CallRecords business entity by adding the
revision column (dRevision) as a default column.

7.6.15 Enabling the Paperclip with Attachments (Oracle


E-Business Suite Forms Only)
By default, the Oracle E-Business Suite paperclip attachment option is disabled as
part of Managed Attachments configuration. To use this native Oracle E-Business
Suite attachments feature in coexistence with the Managed Attachments solution,
you must reenable the paperclip icon as described as follows.

Note:
This section applies to Oracle E-Business Suite Forms use only.

1. Add the following row to the AXF_PROPERTIES table:

Table 7-14 AXF_PROPERTIES Values For PaperClip Use

PROPNAME PROPVALUE
AXF_PAPERCLIP Set to TRUE to enable the paperclip option, or FALSE (default) to d

For more information, see Section C.2.2.

7.6.16 Passing Extra Metadata Values From a Business


Application to Content Server
You can configure the Managed Attachments solution to pass extra metadata values
from the business application to Content Server to store with attached documents.
For example, you might pass a claim number from a Claims application so that when
users attach or scan documents, a Claim Number field on the Content Check In and
Scan Document pages is prepopulated with the value.

This feature works as follows:

 The business application field whose metadata value is to be passed to


Content Server must exist in the business application. For example, you might
pass a business record's service request number or primary key.
 Using Content Server's Managed Attachments administration variables (Table
7-7 and Table 7-8), you specify the field whose value will be passed when
users either check in or scan a document. This prepopulates the specified field
in the Content Check In or Scan Document page for users.
 In the business application's command parameters table, you identify the
extra metadata field to be passed.

Follow these steps to configure passing extra metadata values.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
1. From Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from the
Administration menu.
2. Under Global Configuration, enter one or more field names to pass, using a
comma to separate multiple names.
 Enter field names in
the AppAdapterExtraCheckinMetadata field to pass their
values directly to the Content Check In page.
 Enter field names in the AppAdapterExtraScanMetadata field
to pass their values directly to the Scan Document page.
3. Access the command parameters table for your business application.
 For an Oracle E-Business Suite Forms configuration, access
the AXF_COMMAND_PARAMETERS Table (Oracle E-Business Suite
Forms).
 For an Oracle E-Business Suite OAF configuration, access
the OAF_AXF_CMD_PARAMS Table (Oracle E-Business Suite OAF).
 For a PeopleSoft configuration, access the PS_AXF_CMD_PARAMS
Table.
 For an Enterprise Application Adapter Framework configuration,
see Section 7.6.16.1.
4. Add entries in the table for the extra values to be passed to Content Server,
similar to adding labelValue rows. See the example command shown
in Example 7-9 and the example table shown in Table 7-15.

Add a row for each metadata value, prepending the Content Server field name
with extra. For
example, xReqNum becomes extraxReqNum and dDocTitle becomes extradDocT
itle.

Note:
Typically, Content Server extra information fields have an x character in front
of them and standard ones have a d character in front of them. For more
information, refer to the section on standard metadata fields in the Oracle
Fusion Middleware Managing Oracle WebCenter Content.

Example 7-9 Inserting Extra Metadata Field into OAF Command

7.6.16.1 Passing Values Via Enterprise Application Adapter Framework

For the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework, pass the extra metadata values
as part of the request parameters section of the SOAP envelope body, prepending
the Content Server field name
with extra (xReqNum becomes extraxReqNum and dDocTitle becomes extradDocTitle
). For example:

<entry><key>extraxReqNum</key><value>123456</value></entry>

7.6.17 Resizing Oracle PeopleSoft Popup Solution


Windows
You can change the default system-wide size for all Oracle PeopleSoft popup
windows that display as part of solutions. Note the following:

 The default popup window size is 600 pixels high by 800 wide, set in
the PS_AXF_PROPERTIES Table. When a size is set in this table, users cannot
set and save popup window size themselves.
 To change window size, enter new values in the table, as shown in Section
C.4.4.
 To remove the popup window size and allow individual users to change and
save popup window size using standard browser controls, remove the
WINDOW_HEIGHT and WINDOW_WIDTH rows from the PS_AXF_PROPERTIES
Table.

7.6.18 Configuring an Entity's Private Attachments


Security Group
When users check in documents through Managed Attachments, they can choose
private or shared access for them, as described in Section 7.7.3. Private documents
are automatically assigned to a special Content Server security group
called AFDocuments.

On a per entity level, you can optionally override the security group for private
attachments, and assign documents to an alternate security group, by following
these steps.

1. On Content Server, choose Managed Attachments from the Administration


menu.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
2. On the Configure Managed Attachments page, scroll to the Entity Specific
Configuration settings in the lower portion of the page, and click Add.

The Add Entity Specific Configuration page displays.

Figure 7-10 Configuring Entity Level Private Attachments Security


Group

Description of "Figure 7-10 Configuring Entity Level Private Attachments Security Group"

3. In the Add Entity Specific Configuration page shown in Figure 7-10, complete
the fields, identifying the AppAdapterPrivateSecGroup variable and the
alternate security group to use for a specified business entity, where:
 Application Name: Application for which to assign alternate
security group
 Object Type: Business entity for which to assign alternate security
group
 Configuration Name: AppAdapterPrivateSecGroup
 Configuration Value: Alternate security group

The example values shown in Figure 7-10 set ClaimsSecurity as the security
group when users attach private documents to the ExpenseClaims business
entity (within the PSFT_Instance application).

4. Assign the following roles to the specified security group (must be the same
as those assigned to the AFDocuments security group): AFRead, AFWrite,
AFDelete, and AFAdmin.
5. In the config.cfg file, add the alternate security group to
the SpecialAuthGroups configuration variable.

7.6.19 Restoring Business Application User Pass


Through for Managed Attachments
Note:
This section applies only if using Managed Attachments with the AXF for BPEL
infrastructure. It does not apply if using the AXF for BPM infrastructure.

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
As described in Section 6.4.2, the BPEL Imaging solution allows you to configure the
authenticated Oracle WebLogic Server user to perform tasks, rather than the user
passed from Oracle E-Business Suite or Oracle PeopleSoft. This option is provided
through a USERNAME_PASS_THROUGH parameter in the AXF_SOLUTION_ATTRIBUTES
Table, where:

 TRUE (default): Uses the passed-in user from Oracle E-Business Suite or
Oracle PeopleSoft to perform tasks.
 FALSE: Uses the authenticated Oracle WebLogic Server user to perform tasks.

Note:
If no value is provided, the value defaults to FALSE.

The Managed Attachments solution requires that the passed-in user from Oracle E-
Business Suite or Oracle PeopleSoft perform tasks. The
AXF_ATTACHMENTS_CONFIG.SQL script that you ran in Section 7.2.1 for Managed
Attachments sets the USERNAME_PASS_THROUGH value to TRUE. If needed at any
point, restore the parameter's value to TRUE, as shown in Table 7-16 and Section
C.1.2.

7.6.20 Renaming the Managed Attachments Button For


OAF Entities
To rename the Managed Attachments button for Oracle E-Business Suite OAF
entities, such as for localization purposes:

1. Open the ManagedAttachmentButtonRN.xml file, which was imported into the


MDS repository on the Oracle E-Business Suite OAF side during setup.
2. Locate the following line and replace Managed Attachments with a localized
name.
3. <oa:button id="MAButton" prompt="Managed Attachments"/>

4. Using the import command, reimport the file into MDS.

7.7 Configuring Authentication and Security


This section provides instructions on managing authentication and security for the
Managed Attachments solution. It covers the following topics:

 Section 7.7.1, "Configuring a CSF Credential for Managed Attachments"


 Section 7.7.2, "Configuring User Authentication"
 Section 7.7.3, "Configuring Document Security"

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
 Section 7.7.4, "Securing Communications Between AXF and Content Server"
 Section 7.7.5, "Managing Business Application and Content Server Users"

7.7.1 Configuring a CSF Credential for Managed


Attachments
You must store the administrator user credentials in a credential store framework
(CSF), a user name/password pair that is keyed by an alias and stored inside a
named map in the CSF. The user name stored in the CSF is compared with the user
name sent by Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft, or a custom plug-in calling
the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework in the web services call. If the
administrator user names do not match (see Section C.1.4), access to the Managed
Attachments page is prevented.

You can create a credential through Enterprise Manger (EM) or through WebLogic
Scripting Tool (WLST).

7.7.1.1 Creating a Credential Using Enterprise Manager

1. Log in to Enterprise Manager.


2. Right-click on your domain under WebLogic Domain.
3. Click Security and then Credentials.
4. Select the oracle.wsm.security map. If it does not exist, follow these steps:
a. Select Create Map.
b. Enter oracle.wsm.security in the map field and click OK.
5. Expand the oracle.wsm.security map.
6. Click Create Key. The key is now available for selection.
7. Enter MA_CSF_KEY as the key name.
8. Select password in the Type field.
9. Enter a user name and password for a valid Oracle WebLogic Server
administrator (for example, weblogic and Welcome1).

The user name and password are passed by the business application to AXF,
and were previously configured for the Web Services call from Oracle E-
Business Suite (see Section 2.4.1), Oracle PeopleSoft (see Section 3.2.2.1),
and a custom plug-in calling the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework
(see Section 7.4.2).

10. Click OK.

7.7.1.2 Creating a Credential Using WLST

1. Execute the following command, where username and password refer to a valid
Oracle WebLogic Server administrator passed by the business application to
AXF, and were previously configured for the Web Services call from Oracle E-
Business Suite (see Section 2.4.1), Oracle PeopleSoft (see Section 3.2.2.1),
and a custom plug-in calling the Enterprise Application Adapter Framework
(see Section 7.4.2).

createCred(map="oracle.wsm.security", key="MA_CSF_KEY",
user=[username], password=[password])

Example:

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
createCred(map="oracle.wsm.security", key="MA_CSF_KEY",
user="weblogic", password="Welcome1")

2. Execute the following command to verify that the credential was created
properly:

listCred(map="oracle.wsm.security",key="MA_CSF_KEY")

7.7.2 Configuring User Authentication


Business application users must have a Content Server account to display the
Managed Attachments page within the supported business application entity. In
addition, the authentication model configured for Content Server and the business
application determines how users are authenticated the first time they activate
managed attachments from a business application record:

 Content Server configured for single sign-on: If the business application


is not configured for single sign-on, the Content Server single sign-on login
prompt displays. (If the business application is configured for single sign-on,
the user has been authenticated so no login prompt displays.)
 Content Server not configured for single sign-on: The Content Server
login prompt displays, regardless of the selected business application
authentication model.

Note:
No user authentication is needed for AXF if security checks are properly
configured, as described in Section 7.7.

7.7.3 Configuring Document Security


When checking documents into Content Server through the Managed Attachments
user interface, users specify their access by choosing one of two modes:

 private (not shared): Users can access these documents only through their
associated business application entity screens through the Managed
Attachments user interface. Users (including the user who checks in a
document) cannot search for or access a private document using any other
standard Content Server user interface. This is the default security mode
when checking in a new document through the Managed Attachments user
interface.

Note:
The AppAdapterCheckinPrivate global configuration variable determines if
the Share Document field on the Content Check-In page is deselected by
default (set for private check-in). For more information, see Section 7.5.1.

Note:
Private (not shared) documents are automatically assigned to a special
security group called AFDocuments, and users who have access to the

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
business application entity are granted temporary access to the documents
when they invoke the Managed Attachments user interface.
The AppAdapterPrivateSecGroup variable enables you to override on a per
entity level the security group to use for private attachments, and assign
them to an alternate group. For more information, see Section 7.6.18.

In certain exceptional cases, an administrator might grant special users direct


access to the AFDocuments security group by permanently assigning the
AFRead, AFWrite, AFDelete, or AFAdmin roles for the AFDocuments security
group, in which case the user could access a private document through any
standard Content Server user interface.

 shared: These documents are more easily accessed than private documents,
because their security is managed by Content Server. In addition to access
through their associated business application entity screens through the
Managed Attachments user interface, any Content Server user with a
document's assigned security group access can search for and access the
document using any standard Content Server user interface.

Note:
Users can view shared documents only in AutoVue (if configured). They
cannot view private documents. For details, see Section 7.8.

7.7.4 Securing Communications Between AXF and


Content Server
Follow these steps to enable trusted communication between the host on which AXF
is running and the Content Server. On the Content Server, you have two options for
this configuration step: either using the System Properties application or by editing
the config.cfg file.

7.7.4.1 Using the Content Server System Properties Application

1. Open the System Properties utility for the Content Server instance.
2. Select the Server tab.
3. Identify the AXF host by either entering a name in the Hostname Filter field
or an address in the IP Address Filter field.
4. Click OK and restart Content Server.

7.7.4.2 By Editing the Content Server Config.cfg File

1. Open the config.cfg file.


2. Locate the SocketHostAddressSecurityFilter entry, and edit it to include the IP
address of the system on which AXF is running.
3. Restart Content Server.

7.7.5 Managing Business Application and Content


Server Users

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
Keep the following guidelines in mind when managing Oracle E-Business Suite,
Oracle PeopleSoft, or other business application users for Managed Attachments
access (for example, when managing users in a central repository using single sign-
on):

 In order for business application users to access Managed Attachments


functionality, their Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft, or other
business application user names MUST match their Content Server user
names.
 When creating Content Server users (global or local), do NOT assign the
AFRead, AFWrite, AFDelete, or AFAdmin roles.

The adapter dynamically assigns roles to the user: Roles are granted to the
user based on dPrivilege's value when the AF_GRANT_ACCESS service is
invoked (see Section C.5.1); or, if not specified, based on the configuration
variable AppAdapterGrantPrivilege's value (see Section 7.5). Depending on
the privilege (R, W, D, or A), a predefined role is dynamically assigned to the
user.

Caution:
Do not delete the AFRead, AFWrite, AFDelete, AFAdmin roles from the system.

7.8 Configuring Oracle AutoVue Document


Viewing
This section covers the following topics:

 Section 7.8.1, "About Configuring Oracle AutoVue"


 Section 7.8.2, "Requirements For Oracle VueLink for Content Server"
 Section 7.8.3, "Enabling AutoVue For the Adapter"

7.8.1 About Configuring Oracle AutoVue


The default document viewing option for the Managed Attachments page is the
standard web rendition provided by Content Server. For enhanced viewing options,
the adapter also supports Oracle AutoVue through VueLink for Content Server, where
non-private attachments of virtually any document type are available for viewing,
printing, collaboration, annotation, and mark up, delivered securely using Web
technologies.

Important Points About the AutoVue/Adapter Integration

 If configured, users can view all non-private attachments through AutoVue.


For details on shared versus private documents, see Section 7.7.2.
 The VueLink integration serves as a bridge that securely streams documents
from the Content Server repository to AutoVue for viewing, digital markup and
collaboration. Digital markups are saved in the Content Server repository and
associated with the attached document.
 By default, AutoVue is turned off in the Managed Attachments solution. You
activate it on the Configure Managed Attachments page, by displaying the

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
AutoVue icon and identifying the URL to the AutoVue servlet to launch when
the user clicks the View in AutoVue icon.
 As with other preferences settings, you can enable the AutoVue integration at
the global, application, and business entity levels.
 AutoVue trusts the user authentication against Content Server. Once
authenticated to Content Server, no further authentication to AutoVue is
required for users to view attached documents using AutoVue.
 Viewing or annotating a document in AutoVue does not check it out or prevent
it from being edited by others. Annotations are contained in a separate layer
from their corresponding document.

For example:

http://ucm1.example.com/cs/idcplg?IdcService=VIEW_IN_AUTOVUE

6. Optionally specify application or business entity settings by adding new rows


in the AFEnvironmentConfiguration resultset for the
AppAdapterAutoVueIconVisible and AutoVueURLPath variables, where:
 dAFApplication: Application in which to display or hide button
 dAFBusinessObjectType: Business entity within application in
which to display or hide button

Example 7-9 contains several AutoVue settings. It assumes that the View in
AutoVue icon is set to false globally. The first two entries enable and display
the icon for the PSFT_Instance_A application. The last two entries enable and
display the icon for the PSFT_Instance_B application, but only within its PIM
business entity.

For installation requirements specific to Oracle Distributed Document Capture use
with this adapter, see Section 7.9.2.

7.9.1 About Document Scanning Using Oracle


Distributed Document Capture
The Oracle Distributed Document Capture application enables an application such as
the adapter to direct it to scan a document and pass in document index values. This
allows users to scan documents or import scanned image files from the Managed
Attachments page and attach them to the selected business application record.

When configured for the adapter, document scanning works as follows:

 A Scan button is added to the Managed Attachments page. The user clicks
the button, and selects options such as a document classification, which is
assigned to an Oracle Distributed Document Capture scan profile. For
example, the user might select a classification of Identity Documents to scan
a photocopy of a driver's license or passport. (An Oracle Distributed
Document Capture scan profile specifies scanning, importing, and indexing
settings.) The user also specifies whether the document should be shared,
and if so the user specifies a security group for the shared document from
those to which the user has access.
 When the user clicks the Scan Document button, Oracle Distributed
Document Capture's remote client launches in a new window, automatically
authenticates and logs in the user (if configured), and passes in parameters
such as the scan profile to use and business application entity values for later
attachment.
 Within the Oracle Distributed Document Capture client, the user reviews the
document, makes changes as needed, completes any index fields configured
in the scan profile, then sends the batch. Sending the batch commits the new
document to Content Server 11g using a commit profile specified for the scan
profile. (A Capture/Content Server commit profile specifies connection
information and field mappings between Capture and Content Server
metadata fields.)
 Upon successful sending, the user returns to the Managed Attachments page
and refreshes the display to view the newly scanned document or imported
scanned image file.

7.9.2 Oracle Distributed Document Capture and Related


Components Requirements
This section lists requirements for implementing scanning and importing
functionality with Oracle Distributed Document Capture. For complete system
requirements, such as browsers, see the configuration and certification information
at the following location:

documentation/documentation-155348.html

Note:

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
The requirements listed in this section apply only if using Oracle Distributed
Document Capture for optional scanning functionality.

Requirements include:

 Oracle Distributed Document Capture Release 10.1.3.5.1 or later, including


the Oracle UCM 11g Commit Driver, which is provided for installation in this
release. The Oracle UCM 11g Commit Driver is required to commit documents
from Oracle Distributed Document Capture to Oracle WebCenter Content
Server 11g.
 Internet Explorer 6 or above for end-users.

Note:
The Mozilla Firefox browser is not supported for scan functionality via Oracle
Distributed Document Capture, which currently requires Internet Explorer.

7.9.3 Configuring Oracle Distributed Document Capture


For the Adapter
Follow these steps to configure attachment scanning on the Oracle Distributed
Document Capture side.

1. Optionally set Oracle Distributed Document Capture for automatic login.

On the System Settings tab of the Distributed Document Capture Server


Configuration application shown in Figure 7-12, select Web Server
Authenticated Access from the Authentication Methods options. This setting
enables the client to launch automatically without users needing to log in. For
details, see the section on authentication in the Installation Guide for Oracle
Distributed Document Capture.

2. In Capture Administration, add index fields to a selected file cabinet for


capturing values for new documents, as shown in Figure 7-13. For details, see
the section on Capture Administration in the Administrator's Guide for Oracle
Distributed Document Capture.
a. Create index fields for values to save with attached documents on
the Content Server. For example, you might configure a Doc Type
pick-list index field for users to select from standard document
types.
b. Create the following alphanumeric index fields to contain the
business application entity values and required fields:
 dAFApplication
 dAFBusinessObjectType
 dAFBusinessObject
 dSecurityGroup
 Title

Internal Use Only This information must be shared within Tawazun and may be shared externally to an authorized person
TAWAZUN
Description of "Figure 7-13 Capture Administration, Index Fields"

3. In Oracle Distributed Document Capture's Profile Administration, create a scan


profile, as shown in Figure 7-14. You later associate this scan profile with one
or more document classifications, so that when a user selects a classification,
the associated scan profile's settings are used. For details, see the section on
scan profiles in the Administrator's Guide for Oracle Distributed Document
Capture.
a. On the General pane, select 2 - Scan and Index Documents in
the Scanning Type field. This scanning type includes indexing, and
scans or imports pages into a single document in a batch. Specify
a file cabinet and batch prefix.

Administration"

b. On the Document Indexing pane, move all fields to display to


users to the Selected Fields box. It is recommended that you
display the Title field for users to enter, and make the field
required.

Note:
Typically, you would not select the business application entity
fields (dAFBusinessObject, for example) for display to users. If you
choose to display them, lock them on the Field Properties pane to
prevent users from changing their values.

Administration"

c. On the Field Properties, Auto Populate, and Database Lookup


panes, configure any pick-lists, database lookups, or
autopopulating needed for indexing. Save the scan profile.
4. In Capture Administration, create an Oracle UCM 11g (Content Server) commit
profile to commit the scanned or imported documents to Content Server when
users send a completed batch.

This commit profile specifies how to connect to the Content Server and how
the business application and Capture values are passed to the Content Server.
For information about creating Content Server commit profiles, see the
section on commit profiles in the Administrator's Guide for Oracle Distributed
Document Capture.

a. Select Oracle UCM 11g Commit Driver in the Commit Driver


field. For this integration, it is recommended that you select PDF -
Image Only in the Document Output Format field. Click

b. On the Login tab, specify settings for logging in to the Content


Server instance. (The other tabs become active after you log in.)
Use the following format for the Content Server URL:

http://Content Server host name or IP


address:WebServerPort/ucm web root/idcplg

The specified Content Server user must be assigned the AFWrite


role for the AFDocuments security group. It is recommended that
you create a special Capture user specific to the Managed
Attachments solution for this purpose to ensure regular users do
not gain write access to the AFDocuments security group, which is
reserved for the Managed Attachments solution. For details about
the AFDocuments group, see Section 7.7.3.

c. On the Check-In tab, choose Assign values


dynamically and By Field Mappings fields, as shown in Figure
7-17. Also specify how you want documents named in
the Document Title field. It is recommended that you use the
Title field.
