Setting connection properties for the external service wizard

To set connection properties for the external service wizard so that it can access the PeopleSoft Enterprise server, specify information such as the user name and password you use to access the server and the name or IP address of the server.

Make sure you have successfully added the software dependency files (the psjoa.jar and associated files).

Specify the connection properties that the external service wizard needs to establish a connection to the PeopleSoft Enterprise server and discover functions or data.

To specify the connection properties, use the following procedure.


Procedure

  1. In the Select the Processing Direction window, select Inbound (if you are going to send data from the PeopleSoft Enterprise server) or Outbound (if you are going to send data to the PeopleSoft Enterprise server) and click Next. The Specify the Discovery Properties window is displayed.

  2. In the Specify the Discovery Properties window, specify the configuration properties:

    1. In the Host name field, type the name (or IP address) of your PeopleSoft Enterprise server.

    2. In the Port number field, type the port number the adapter uses to access the PeopleSoft Enterprise server
    3. Type the name and password you use to access the PeopleSoft Enterprise server.

      The password is case-sensitive.

    4. Optional: Type a prefix to all objects associated with this module.

      A prefix allows you to differentiate between objects generated against the same PeopleSoft component interface.

    5. Select the Prompt for additional configuration settings when adding business object check box if you want to configure additional metadata when you generate objects. Use this option if you plan to use Delete and RetrieveAll operations and have the effective-dated fields and generated keys used in the operation.

  3. To set additional advanced properties, click Advanced.

  4. To enable bidirectional support for the adapter at run time:

    1. In the Bidi properties area, select Bidi transformation.
    2. Set the ordering schema, text direction, symmetric swapping, character shaping, and numeric shaping properties to control how bidirectional transformation is performed.

  5. To change the location of the log files for the wizard or the amount of information included in the logs, click Change the logging properties for the wizard, and then provide the following information:

    1. In Log file output location, specify the location of the log file for the wizard.

    2. In Logging level, specify the severity of errors that you want logged.

      This log information is for the wizard only; at run time, the adapter writes messages and trace information into the standard log and trace files for the server.

  6. Click Next.


Results

The external service wizard contacts the PeopleSoft Enterprise server, using the information you provided (such as user name and password) to log in. The Find Objects in the Enterprise System window is displayed.


What to do next

Specify search criteria that the external service wizard uses to discover functions or data on the PeopleSoft Enterprise server.
