APEX automation is a feature that allows you to automate tasks such as data loading, data synchronization, application export and import, and REST API calls by using declarative actions or PL/SQL code blocks. You can create automation tasks by using the Database Actions interface or by using the APEX_AUTOMATION package. To log messages to the execution log in APEX automation, you can use the APEX_DEBUG package with any of its logging levels (info, warning, error, etc.). The other options are not valid methods of logging messages in APEX automation. Verified References: [Using APEX Automation - Oracle Help Center], [APEX_DEBUG - Oracle Help Center]

The Approvals Component is Oracle APEX's new offering as part of the 22.1 Release. It allows seamless management of approvals across APEX Applications. Approvals are commonly used in business situations involving Expense Reimbursements, Leave Requests, Purchase Requisitions, On-boarding of Employees to name a few. The Approvals Component provides the following building blocks for the approvals functionality:

Task Definition: A shared component for configuring task parameters, participants, and actions. A task definition defines the template for creating tasks based on a specific type of approval request, such as Leave Approval or Purchase Requisition. A task definition specifies the data source, display attributes, potential owners, business administrators, and available actions for the tasks.

Task Details Page: A page that shows task details, which can include metadata, history, comments, and actions. A task details page allows users to view and take action on a specific task, such as approve, reject, reassign, or escalate. A task details page can be created using the Create Page Wizard or the Quick SQL tool in APEX.

Unified Task List: A page type in the Create Page Wizard, used to create a summary of a user's tasks that functions like an inbox. A unified task list allows users to see and manage all their tasks in one place. Users can filter, sort, search, claim, release, or open tasks from the unified task list.

In a Classic Report, an end user can perform the following actions:

Filter values of a column in the report by using the Search Bar. This bar allows the user to enter a search string and apply it to one or more columns in the report.

Sort the columns of the report by clicking on the column headers. This action toggles the sort order between ascending and descending for the selected column.

The other options are incorrect because:

Create Control Breaks in the report is not an action that an end user can perform in a Classic Report. This action is only available in an Interactive Report by using the Control Break option in the Actions menu.

Rearrange the columns in the report is not an action that an end user can perform in a Classic Report. This action is only available in an Interactive Grid by using the Reorder option in the Actions menu.

A faceted search is a type of component that enables users to filter information easily and intuitively by selecting the options in each facet. A faceted search consists of a faceted search region and a search results region. The faceted search region displays on the left and upper part of the screen and shows possible values and occurrence counts for each facet. The search results region displays on the right side of the screen and shows the data that matches the selected facet values. The search results region can display as either a classic report or a cards report. Three of the statements that are true about faceted search are:

After the end user changes a facet, the results, dependent facets, and occurrence counts refresh immediately. This feature provides instant feedback to the user and allows them to refine their search criteria without reloading the page.

The right side of the page features a Search Results region, which can display as a classic report or a cards report. A classic report displays data in a tabular format with columns and rows. A cards report displays data in a grid of cards with images and text.

The facets are displayed on the left and upper part of the screen. This layout provides a clear separation between the facets and the results and allows users to see and access all the facets without scrolling.

To extend the functionality of the form as required, you need to create a dynamic action on P2_JOB that shows or hides P2_HIREDATE and P2_COMM based on its value. The steps are as follows:

Create a dynamic action on P2_JOB by right-clicking it in Page Designer and selecting Create Dynamic Action.

Set Name to Show/Hide Hire Date and Commission.

Set Event to Change.

Set Selection Type to Item(s).

Set Item(s) to P2_JOB.

Set Condition Type to Equal To.

Set Value to SALESMAN.

Add two true actions by clicking the Add True Action button twice.

For the first true action, set Action to Show.

Set Affected Elements > Selection Type to Item(s).

Set Affected Elements > Item(s) to P2_HIREDATE,P2_COMM.

For the second true action, set Action to Show.

Set Fire On Initialization to Yes.

Set Affected Elements > Selection Type to jQuery Selector.

Set Affected Elements > jQuery Selector to label[for=''P2_HIREDATE''],label[for=''P2_COMM''].

Add two false actions by clicking the Add False Action button twice.

For the first false action, set Action to Hide.

Set Affected Elements > Selection Type to Item(s).

Set Affected Elements > Item(s) to P2_HIREDATE,P2_COMM.

For the second false action, set Action to Hide.

Set Fire On Initialization to Yes.

Set Affected Elements > Selection Type to jQuery Selector.

Set Affected Elements > jQuery Selector to label[for=''P2_HIREDATE''],label[for=''P2_COMM''].

This dynamic action will show or hide both the page items and their labels depending on whether P2_JOB is equal to SALESMAN or not. Verified References: [Creating a Dynamic Action in Oracle Apex - OrclQA.Com], [Managing Dynamic Actions - Oracle Help Center]
