Temporary URL to view output of Concurrent Request in Oracle EBS

Below code is a PL/SQL block written for Oracle E-Business Suite. Let's break it down step by step:


```sql

DECLARE

  l_request_id NUMBER;

BEGIN

  l_request_id := &req_id;

```

- This part of the code declares a PL/SQL anonymous block. It starts with the `DECLARE` keyword, indicating the beginning of variable declarations and other declarations.

- `l_request_id` is declared as a local variable of type NUMBER.

- `&req_id` is a substitution variable. When the code is run, the user will be prompted to input a value for `req_id`, which will be assigned to `l_request_id`.


```sql

  FOR i IN (

      SELECT requested_by,

             responsibility_id,

             responsibility_application_id

        FROM fnd_concurrent_requests

       WHERE request_id = l_request_id

  )

  LOOP

```

- This part initiates a loop (`FOR LOOP`) that iterates over the result set returned by the query within the parentheses.

- The query selects data from the table `fnd_concurrent_requests` where the `request_id` matches the value stored in `l_request_id`.

- The loop variable `i` represents each row returned by the query.


```sql

   fnd_global.apps_initialize (

     user_id         => i.requested_by,

     resp_id         => i.responsibility_id,

     resp_appl_id    => i.responsibility_application_id

   );

```

- Inside the loop, the `fnd_global.apps_initialize` procedure is called. This procedure initializes the application context with the given user, responsibility, and application ID. It sets the context for the current session.


```sql

   FOR j IN (

       SELECT fnd_webfile.get_url (4,

                                   l_request_id,

                                   NULL,

                                   NULL,

                                   l_request_id) AS out_url

         FROM DUAL

   )

   LOOP

```

- Another loop (`FOR LOOP`) is initiated here.

- Inside this loop, a call to `fnd_webfile.get_url` function is made. This function generates a URL for the given request ID (`l_request_id`). The URL is retrieved and stored in the loop variable `j`.


```sql

     DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (j.out_url);

```

- Finally, the generated URL is printed using the `DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line` procedure.


```sql

  END LOOP; -- j loop

 END LOOP; -- i loop

END;

/

```

- The loops are properly closed here, marking the end of the PL/SQL block.


Overall, this code retrieves information about a concurrent request (identified by `req_id`) from the `fnd_concurrent_requests` table, initializes the application context based on the request details, generates a URL for the request using a specific function, and then prints the URL. It's likely used for some form of reporting or monitoring within an Oracle E-Business Suite environment.



DECLARE

  l_request_id NUMBER;

BEGIN

  l_request_id := &req_id;

  FOR i

   IN (SELECT requested_by,

         responsibility_id,

         responsibility_application_id

      FROM fnd_concurrent_requests

      WHERE request_id = l_request_id)

  LOOP

   fnd_global.apps_initialize (

     user_id    => i.requested_by,

     resp_id    => i.responsibility_id,

     resp_appl_id => i.responsibility_application_id);

   FOR j IN (SELECT fnd_webfile.get_url (4,

                      l_request_id,

                      NULL,

                      NULL,

                      l_request_id)

             out_url

         FROM DUAL)

   LOOP

     DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (j.out_url);

   END LOOP;

  END LOOP;

END;
