Orig. Workflow Password Signature Mail Message

Oracle Workflow provides the Orig. Workflow Password Signature Mail message as an alternative template that you can optionally use as a template for e-mail notifications that require a password-based electronic signature in the user's response. This template does not include the header attributes that are displayed in the Workflow Password Signature Mail message.

Users can only respond to notifications that require a password-based signature through the Notification Details web page, where they can enter their Oracle Applications user name and password to authenticate the response. The Orig. Workflow Password Signature Mail notification template informs the recipient that a password-based signature is required and that the response cannot be submitted through e-mail. Instead, the notification template directs the recipient to access the online version of the notification to submit a reponse. It also includes the following information about a message: the name of the sender of the message, date that a response is due, and any comments from the sender or, if the notification is forwarded from another user, any comments from the forwarder.

Note: Password-based electronic signatures are currently supported only for the version of Oracle Workflow embedded in Oracle Applications.

The Orig. Workflow Password Signature Mail message has the following message attributes. The values are drawn from the message definition associated with a notification activity.

DUE_DATE The date by which a response is required, specified in the notification activity.
BODY The text of the body defined in the message.
NOTIFICATION Required notification code used to identify the information in the notification. For notifications that require a password-based signature to be entered online, this notification code does not include the access key or node identifier information that would be needed for an e-mail response.
COMMENT Comments added by the sender or the forwarder.
SENDER The name of the sender of the message, as displayed in the From column in the Worklist. This attribute is not currently used.
SUBJECT The subject line defined in the message.

The boilerplate text for a plain text message body is as follows:

Oracle Workflow Notification
