What are Oracle Alerts?

Oracle Alert facilitates the flow of information within your organization by letting you create entities
called alerts to monitor your business information and to notify you of the information you want.

How you can leverage Oracle Alerts?

- Keep you informed of database exception conditions, as they occur.


- Take predefined actions when it finds exceptions in your database, without user intervention.
- Take the actions you specify, depending upon your response to an alert message.
- Perform routine database tasks automatically, according to the schedule you define.
- Keep you informed of exception conditions through Email.

Now we will create new event alert for a business case that will send email automatically to the
new user created in system to welcome and inform him about his details.

Let's get started!

First step is to attach "Alert Manager" responsibility to your user login. Then change Responsibility
to Alert Manager

For Example: If you want to have, an alert in case a user created. Therefore, you have to select
Application as Application Object Library. And when an user has created, data is inserted
in FND_USER so you have to use FND_USER as event table in your alert definition.

5- Select "After Insert" if you want to send alert when a new record created. In the same way "After
Update"
Will help you to send alert when a record updated. Based on your requirement you can use both
together.
6- Write your query.
Important step is to write a select query, which helps you to select your required information when Alert
triggered. Example Query: This Query Select user name, email address

Note: You must have to write select statement on same table, which you have used in Alert Definition to
get :ROWID returns the row id of the data being inserted or updated in your table
