Once you create a process, you can control when the process executes and what the process does by editing attributes on the Edit Page Process page.
To edit an existing page process:
Navigate to the appropriate Page Definition. See "Accessing the Page Definition".
Access the Edit Page Process page:
Tree view - Under the appropriate event, locate the Processes section. Right-click and select Edit.
Component view - Under Processes, click the process name.
The Edit Page Process page appears.
You control when a process executes by specifying a sequence number and a process point under Process Point. You can prevent a process from running during subsequent visits to a page by selecting one of the following options under Run Process:
Once for each page visit
Once for each session or when reset
Enter the appropriate code for PL/SQL process types. For PL/SQL anonymous block processes, enter the appropriate code under Process. For Clear Cache processes, enter the appropriate code under Source. In the event a process fails, you can optionally define an error message in the Process Error Message field.
You can make a process conditional by selecting a condition type and entering an expression under Conditional Processing.
Additionally, you can also make a selection from the When Button Pressed attribute. When you select a button from this list, the process only executes if a user clicks the selected button.
