Thanks Jon

Another great quick overview and summary

Oh boy! Am I glad that you didn't retire? Thank you for this great post.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Very well done, and helpful.
I have an IG using FOS plugin to add Menu Items to "Actions Menu" that trigger a custom event that causes a Dynamic Action to fire executing PL/SQL code using Primary Keys of currently selected IG rows and other page item values. I want to move the PL/SQL code to a background process and cause it to fire as one of the actions of the Dynamic Action. Ideas on how to do that? In short, how to fire a background Process from a Dynamic action that uses Page Item values? It seems it has to be a button click event? Or a submit, but then I lose which items were selected? Thoughts? Thanks Joe

Jon Dixon Hi Jon, Thanks for the quick and helpful options. I am thinking a good APEX Idea could be making it possible to fire a process with a custom event similar to DAs? Joe

Jon Dixon Hi Jon, FYI I went the dbms_scheduler route, but setting argument values for a PLSQL_BLOCK generates an error saying that type does not allow arguments. I handled it by pre-constructing the job_action to build the parameter values into the job_Action parameter value. Thanks again, Joe

Joe Kerr makes sense.
