Using ICIS forms

Launching ICIS forms in Internet Explorer 11 with Java Web Start is a very similar experience to launching them with the Java RunTime Environment, which was previously used in ICIS to do the same job but has now been phased out. 

When you open an ICIS form you'll be prompted to run a file called frmservlet.jnlp, which opens the form in a separate window outside of your web browser. 

1. Open Mozilla Firefox
2. Log in to ICIS
3. Choose a responsibility (for example, IC FIN FINANCE GENERAL ENQUIRIES)
4. Click on an ICIS Java Forms-based menu item (such as GL List of Balances) to start downloading the frmservlet.jnlp file
5. A dialogue box will appear asking What should Firefox do with this file? as shown in this image:

6. Choose Open with and select Java (TM) Web Start Launcher (default)
7. Select the checkbox Do this automatically for files like this from now on
8. Click OK

1. Open Google Chrome
2. Log in to ICIS
3. Choose a responsibility (for example, IC FIN FINANCE GENERAL ENQUIRIES)
4. Click on an ICIS Java Forms-based menu item (such as GL List of Balances) to initiate the download of the frmservlet.jnlp file
5. Google Chrome may display the following message: This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to keep frmservlet.jnlp anyway

6. Click Keep to save the frmservlet.jnlp file
7. Chrome will ask where to save the downloaded file. Choose a folder and click Save
8. Once the file has been downloaded, click the frmservlet.jnlp file in the download bar to run it

1. Open the Edge web browser
2. Log in to ICIS
3. Choose a responsibility (e.g. IC FIN FINANCE GENERAL ENQUIRIES)
4. Click on an Oracle Forms-based menu item (such as GL List of Balances) to start downloading of frmservlet.jnlp
   
5. A notification will show at the bottom of the screen

6. Click Save
7. Once the file has downloaded click open

8. The ICIS form will now open
