Specify Data for an Individual Program in a Request Set

When you define an Oracle E-Business Suite Request Set job, you can specify data for an individual program in the request set. This data overrides the arguments and print parameters specified for the entire request set. You can specify the following data for a program:

To specify data for an individual program in a request set

  1. Specify the order number of the program in the PROGDATA statement. The order number identifies the program in the request set.

    Note: If you do not specify an order number, the first program is treated as number one, and subsequent programs are treated as having the previous program number plus one.

  2. Specify one or more of the following statements after the PROGDATA statement:

    These statements override the arguments and parameters specified for the entire request set.

Example: Specify Values for Individual Programs in a Request Set

Suppose that you want to define a Oracle E-Business Suite Request Set job to run a request set named EXTRACTS on the OAAGENT agent. The request set belongs to the application with the display name Application Object Library. The job definition specifies the following default settings for all programs in the request set:

The first PROGDATA statement identifies the first program in the request set. Subsequent statements override the default values for this program. The first program uses the arguments T23 and R1 and prints two copies using the Q1 printer in PORTRAIT style.

The second PROGDATA statement identifies the fifth program in the request set. Subsequent statements override the default values for this program. The fifth program uses arguments R and R1 and prints three copies using the Q2 printer in PORTRAIT style.

The other programs in the request set use the default values.
