PeopleSoft Search Configurations

PeopleSoft Search Configurations

The PeopleSoft Search Configuration table specifies the PeopleSoft environments from which customer, department or country information can be retrieved and inserted into the Stat Repository. Information can be retrieved from PeopleSoft employee, department or country views.

•

•
PeopleSoft Search Cfg - Change

The PeopleSoft Search Configurations table is displayed in a standard maintenance window. To open this window, select Maintenance | General | PeopleSoft Srch Configs.

Creating Tables and Views

A table or view must be created in each PeopleSoft environment in which you want to conduct searches. For example, in the case of an employee-based search, the view must contain the following fields:

EMPLID

COUNTRY

NAME

SSN

ADDRESS 1

COMMENTS

ADDRESS 2

COMPANY

ADDRESS 3

PAYGROUP

ADDRESS 4

DEPTID

CITY

DEPTNAME

STATE

WORK_PHONE

ZIP

WORK_PHONE_EXT

EMAIL_ADDR

EMAIL_ADDRESS2

CUSTOM1

CUSTOM2

SIN

 

For employee-based searches, Stat parses the NAME column based on the original PeopleSoft format of Employee table Name column: LastName, FirstName.

In addition, for any column, you may insert a space instead of a value, or indicate a default value. You may wish to populate the comment, custom1 or custom2 fields from other employee related fields.

NOTE: Newer versions of the PeopleTools employee table (8.48 and higher) store the Name field as FirstName LastName, but also have a separate FirstName and LastName column. For those versions of PeopleTools the view must concatenate FirstName and LastName as a.LAST_NAME || ',' ||a.FIRST_NAME.

The following are examples of views. The first example below displays an employee view formatted for PeopleTools versions prior to 8.48, while the second example displays the format for PeopleTools versions 8.48 and higher. In both examples the phone extension, SSN, SIN and second email address values are not being populated from PeopleSoft. The employee's job title is being placed into the comment field. This is configurable based on your site needs.
