!Steps to Set up a new User Defined Column
The following steps need to be followed to add a new column.
# Have all users sign out of system
# Create the new column on the table. In SQL*Plus as the P2K user:
#* Add the column to the database\\{{ALTER TABLE P2K_xx_xxxxxx ADD (''COLUMN_NAME COLUMN_TYPE'');
#** where ''xx_xxxxxx'' is the table name
#** where ''COLUMN_NAME'' is the new column name
#** where ''COLUMN_TYPE'' is the data type of the new column: DATE, NUMBER, NUMBER(10,4), VARCHAR2(30), etc.\\Sample:\\{{ALTER TABLE P2K_HR_ASSIGNMENT_DETAILS ADD (ANNIVERSARY_MONTH VARCHAR2(16));}}
#*Multiple columns can be added using this script before running and moving onto the next stage of processing.
#* Run a db_recompile script ({{@db_recompile}})
# Sign into the eP system
# In IMCD form – add the new column with a [column usage|COLUMN_USAGE] of “User Defined Column”. Ensure that [Data Type|DATA_TYPE], [Domain Name|DOMAIN_NAME] and [Length|VALUE_LENGTH] are all entered at a minimum. Review other columns for samples, as needed.
# Exit from the eP system
# Rebuild the workflow triggers. In SQLPlus as P2K user:
#* {{@seed_create_biud.pls}}
#* You may now exit SQL*Plus
# In Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM), restart the J2EE Server instance. This is required because the column definitions are only loaded at start up.
# Sign in to the eP system
# The new column is now available to be used in form definitions ([IMFD]) or workflow ([IMUC]) or for any other purpose
At line 21 added one line
* The name of the User Defined Column should not start with a number. Depending on its planned usage in the application, this will cause errors that are not apparent with initial or form setup and usage (usercalcs).

!!Steps to Set up a new User Defined Column
At line 25 added 25 lines
The following steps need to be followed to add a new column.
! A. In the Database
In SQL*Plus as the P2K user:
# Set up the session audit information\\{{BEGIN \\ P2K_PMSESSION.LOGIN('SQ','Modifying code in the database - ''put name here'''); \\ DBMS_SESSION.SET_ROLE(p2k_pmsec.smsr(user)); \\ END; \\ /}}
# Add the column to the database\\{{ALTER TABLE P2K_xx_xxxxxx ADD (''COLUMN_NAME COLUMN_TYPE'');}}
#* where ''xx_xxxxxx'' is the table name
#* where ''COLUMN_NAME'' is the new column name
#* where ''COLUMN_TYPE'' is the data type of the new column: DATE, NUMBER, NUMBER(10,4), VARCHAR2(30), etc.\\Sample:\\{{ALTER TABLE P2K_HR_ASSIGNMENT_DETAILS ADD (ANNIVERSARY_MONTH VARCHAR2(16));}}
#*Multiple columns can be added using this script before running and moving onto the next stage of processing.
# Recompile the database:\\{{@DB_RECOMPILE.sql}}
# Rebuild the workflow triggers:\\{{@SEED_CREATE_BIUD.sql}}
# Close the session\\ {{BEGIN \\ p2k_pmsession.logoff; \\ END;\\ /}}
You may now exit SQL*Plus
! B. In Personality
# Have all users sign out of system
#Log in as MASTER
# In IMCD form – add the new column with a [column usage|COLUMN_USAGE] of “User Defined Column”. Ensure that [Data Type|DATA_TYPE], [Domain Name|DOMAIN] and [Length|VALUE_LENGTH] are all entered at a minimum. Review other columns for samples, as needed.
# Exit from the Personality system
! C. Restart the application
# On your Oracle Application server (OAS or WebLogic) restart the container for this application. If you have a separate HLAppResources instance in WebLogic, this must also be restarted
#* This is required because the column definitions are only loaded at start up.
# Sign in to the Personality system (Not as MASTER)
# The new column is now available to be used in form definitions ([IMFD]) or workflow ([IMUC]) or for any other purpose
