Specify Argument Values to Pass to a Program in a Single Request

You can pass argument values to a program in an Oracle E-Business Suite Single Request job. The job can also use the default values that are defined by the registered Concurrent Manager program. When an argument value is defined in both the job definition and as a default, the argument value in the job definition overrides the default.

To specify argument values to pass to a program in a single request, specify the following statements in the job definition:

• ARGS
• (Optional) ARGDEFAULTS

Example: Specify Argument Values for a Single Request

Suppose that you want to pass the argument values, T,DefArg2,X23,,DefArg5, to a single request program. The job uses the argument values that are specified in the job definition and the default values defined in Oracle Applications as follows:

• The first argument, T, and the third argument, X23, are specified in the job definition.
• The second argument, DefArg2, and the fifth argument, DefArg5, are defined as defaults in Oracle Applications.
• The fourth argument is not specified in the job definition or defined as a default on Oracle Applications, so the agent passes an empty string for that argument.
