Hi Bruno,
Thanks for the very fast reply. I would like to provide more details here:

We have APEX(Oracle application express) setup which displays the products 
available and ready to be loaded. 

So here, want to find out if there is a way to automatically start loading 
those available products shown in APEX using Jenkins?
Right now we start the Load Manually using Jenkins(not synced up with APEX)
Is there any configuration option in Jenkins which can sync up with APEX or 
any plugin available? Please specify details. 

I'm not sure how to explain this in detail but i'll give it a try, There is 
a loder workflow which is java-based, software for importing these products 
into Oracle database. It consists of various modules such as Create Log 
tables, common procedures and functions. It has various task groups and 
tasks as a part of workflow. Right now, we are using Ant to set specific 
properties such as schema details and mention which products to be loaded. 
Also, if loading of a product has failed and need to validate that 
particular product, we run this manually by setting the property *
ValidateProduct* in config file or on the command line and execute only *
RunOnlyValidationTask*. Valid values for property *ValidateProduct* are 
ProductIDs separated by semicolons. 

examples for config file;

<Property Name="ValidateProduct" Value="all"/>
run validations for all product

So have to figure out a way in Jenkins to automatically start individual 
sub tasks in Jenkins. This will be needed if we have load a particular task 
which has failed previously. 

Also, the passwords are not encrypted, so we receive emails with all the 
credentials used. Is there any plugin for this?
