Oracle EBS fnd_request.submit_request 与 Fnd_concurrent.wait_for_ruqest

1、关于fnd_request.submit_request的用法
fnd_request.submit_request的用法：
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST 函数是用来提交一个请求的,它返回一个NUMBER值.具体调用如下 

英文说明(zt oracle) : 
Parameters are as follows:

application - Short name of the application associated with the concurrent 
request to be submitted.

program - Short name of the concurrent program (not the executable) for which 
the request should be submitted.

description - Description of the request that is displayed in the Concurrent 
Requests form (Optional.)

start_time - Time at which the request should start running, formatted as HH24: 
MI or HH24:MI:SS (Optional.)

sub_request - Set to TRUE if the request is submitted from another request and 
should be treated as a sub-request.

argument1...100 - Arguments for the concurrent request; up to 100 
arguments are permitted. If submitted from Oracle Forms, you must specify all 
100 arguments.

补充说明：
  在用fnd_request.submit_request的时候，第五个参数用false，不要被参数名称误导；这个函数有105个参数，前面五个定义请求本身，后面100个是传递给请求的具体参数，都是Char类型，我们需要转换，默认值是chr(0)，代表这个参数不用传递给调用的请求；
  在Package里面调用只需要传递需要的参数个数，因为它有默认值指示结束；
  在form里面则不行，要写满105个，而且我们参数结束之后要用一个chr(0)来表示结束

例
fnd_request.submit_request('AR',
'SVAINEX_P',
'',
'', 
FALSE,
:parameter.invoice_store,
chr(0),
'','','',
'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',
'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',
'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',
'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',
'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','');

例如：

 1 --submit the request
 2      l_req_id_fee := fnd_request.submit_request('PO',
 3                                                 'REQIMPORT',
 4                                                 '',
 5                                                 '',
 6                                                 FALSE,
 7                                                 'POP_REQUEST',
 8                                                 to_char(SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDD'),
 9                                                 'ALL',
10                                                 '',
11                                                 'N',
12                                                 'N');
13      
14      if (l_req_id_fee is null) or (l_req_id_fee = 0) then
15         raise l_submit_req;
16      else
17         --提交请求
18         COMMIT;
19         --更新状态(只有请求成功，状态才更改)
20         UPDATE hek_om_pop_headers_all
21         SET flow_status = 'reg_purchase'
22         --select * from hek_om_pop_headers_all
23         WHERE header_id IN (SELECT h.header_id
24                               FROM hek_om_pop_headers_v h
25                              WHERE h.flow_status = 'wait');
26         COMMIT;         
27      end if;

2、Oracle Erp等待报表运行机制

主要是用到了Fnd_concurrent.wait_for_ruqest这个function.
Fnd_concurrent.wait_for_request返回Boolean值，主要参数如下：
function FND_CONCURRENT.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
(request_id IN number default NULL, --请求ID
interval IN number default 60, --检查时间间隔
max_wait IN number default 0, --最大等待时间
phase OUT varchar2, 
status OUT varchar2, 
dev_phase OUT varchar2, --请求运行阶段
dev_status OUT varchar2, --各个阶段状态
message OUT varchar2 --运行完成后输出信息) 
return boolean;

dev_phase有Pending,Running,Complete,Inactive等几种，每种对应不同的Dev-Status，比如Complete阶段后就有Normal,Error,Warning,Cancelled,Terminated等几种状态。

例如：

 1l_request_status := Fnd_Concurrent.Wait_For_Request(l_request_id,
 25,
 30,
 4l_phase,
 5l_status,
 6l_dev_phase,
 7l_dev_status,
 8l_message);
 9
10IF l_request_status THEN
11IF l_dev_status = 'NORMAL' THEN
12NULL;
13ELSE
14Fnd_Message.Debug('请求运行不成功：'||l_dev_status);
15RETURN;
16END IF;
17ELSE
18Fnd_Message.Debug('请求未完成,无法查看报表内容!');
19RETURN;
20END IF;
21
22Editor_Pkg.Report(l_request_id,'Y');
23

总结：FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST是一种通过后台方式提交请教的方法，可以在pkg和form中使用，在form中使用要将参数写全。FND_CONCURRENT.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST是一个等待当前请求运行完毕的程序，可以利用这个等待当前的请求程序运行完毕再运行下面的程序。

3、有时候提交请求一直会返回0的情况：检查是否有初始化环境：

3.1、在PLSQL中设定初始的方法 

SELECT user_id
  INTO l_num_user_id
  FROM applsys.fnd_user
 WHERE user_name ='user_name';

SELECT responsibility_id
  INTO l_num_resp_id
  FROM apps.fnd_responsibility_vl
 WHERE responsibility_name ='responsibility_name';

SELECT application_id
  INTO l_num_resp_appl_id
  FROM applsys.fnd_application
 WHERE application_short_name = 'app_short_name';



fnd_global.apps_initialize (user_id  => l_num_user_id,
                            resp_id  => l_num_resp_id,
                            resp_appl_id => l_num_resp_appl_id);

3.2、在Form设定初始的方法 

-- 可直接引用全局变量 
fnd_global.apps_initialize (user_id      => FND_GLOBAL.APPS_INITIALIZE(FND_GLOBAL.USER_ID,

                            resp_id      => FND_GLOBAL.RESP_ID,

                            resp_appl_id => FND_GLOBAL.RESP_APPL_ID);
