We had an Ask Denovo reader mention that as much as they've wanted to take advantage of all the UDO's, they've had trouble with creating them in the first place. Before we continue on our UDO Refreshers, we wanted to take a little time to talk about newly released UDO's and how they need to be ""enabled"" in order to add your own.
When Oracle delivers UDO's to a version, you simply have to grant security access via the UDO Workbench (P98220U). However, if you want to create your own new UDO's, the UDO itself needs to be enabled. By default, there are only a handful of the UDO's enabled. Unfortunately you can't get to this screen directly. To enable the full lot of them, from P00950 (Security Workbench), take the Form exit to UDO Security then click Action. Then take the Form Exit to ""Feature Security"".
This opens the ""Revise Feature Enablement"" screen where you simply click on the Access radio button to make it green. You'll get a warning recommending to clear security cache, but I have found that simply signing out and back in will make the UDO available to you.
Next week we'll continue our UDO Refresher Series and dive into Form Extensions!
Do you have anything you'd like to add to the UDO Refresher Series? Let us know below!
