Can you select another query in a query?

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 17:41:39 +0000

I'm trying to select the results of a select, e.g.
SELECT A.FIELD1, (SELECT B.FIELDB FROM TABLE2 B) FROM TABLE1 A
and it was suggested that I might be able to do this by making the embedded SELECT a separate query and then referencing it. Is this possible? If not, is there another way to do this?

IDs having more than 1 ORG

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:39:44 +0000

I'm using the Peoplesoft Query reporting tool (version 8.9) and I can't just type a sql statement. I hope I'm giving you all the information needed:

2 Tables:

table 1

ID SUBJECT CRSE_NUMBER SECTION
1 TEST 500 1
1 PRP 600 3

2 TEST 100 1
2 TE 100 1

3 PRP 200 4
3 BT 500 1
3 SD 200 5

Joined with table 2 on subject

SUBJECT ORG

TEST TEST
TE TEST
PRP PRP
BT BTL
SD SDY

I need to find all IDs that have more then 1 ORG so it would only retrieve:

ID SUBJECT CRSE_NUMBER SECTION
1 TEST 500 1
1 PRP 600 3

3 PRP 3200 4
3 BT 4500 1
3 SD 4200 5

Help is appreciated.

PeopleSoft and Active Directory

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:31:26 +0000

Hello,
I have a question for those users out there using PeopleSoft with Active Directory. We are in the early stages of getting a common Active Directory setup for all of our locations. We want PeopleSoft to be the instigator for User Creation as 95% of all users are first created in peoplesoft. We would like this to all be real time if possible.

My questions are.
How are users out there currently using Active Directory with Peoplesoft?

Does PeopleSoft have the ability to query or write directly to Active Directory? If so how?

My initial thoughts were to have PeopleSoft instigate the creation of the user and then pass needed information to a web service or something to have the Active Directory account portion created. is this an ok method?

Looking for any assitance or direction one could provide.

Thanks.

Component Interface PeopleCode

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 18:00:44 +0000

I am looking for a way to "pre-edit" and possibly cross reference data in the component interface. Here's an example:

I have inbound conversion data using a business unit from legacy. I need to change this field to be the new PeopleSoft business unit. I have a PeopleSoft record where I can access this cross reference, and would like to write the code in the Component Interface. My goal is to not touch delivered components/pages/record peoplecode, but to somehow use the component interface's peoplecode. Is this possible?

Cube Manager

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:15:48 +0000

If anyone has an example of the SQL (PS Query) that they created as the Cube Source Query, I would greatly appreciate it. I come from a BI background but don't quite understand how to create the actual cube source query in order to link the fields of the query to the dimension. Also please provide the cube definition so that I can relate the query to the cube input.

Thank you!

Web Service Help

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 17:13:51 +0000

I am new to PeopleSoft Development and have been following this post to try and get an exposed web service up and running to consume by a third party application.
http://peoplesoft.wikidot.com/component-interface-based-web-services
I get through the whole tutorial but when I test the Web Service (WSDL) i get an error saying:

Retrieval of WSDL failed for wsdl name: NDFT.CI_MESSAGE_CATALOG1.1. (2,887) PT_INTEGRATION.GetWSDL.OnExecute Name:OnRequest PCPC:1627 Statement:33

I am not sure what this means? Also, we have multiple environments here so the environment where I created this Web Serive I preceeded the CI with the environment name and a dot.CI_MESSAGE_CATALOG1.1.wsdl

Any help would be great. Thanks for the wiki too. I have been searching for some good sites on PeopleSoft dev and they seem to be few and far between so am happy to see this.
Thanks.

Integration

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 14:34:26 +0000

Is this something that could prove to be a difficult task? We have been asked to look into the viability of integrating an outside
product that manages inventory with PS Financials 7.5. The integration will involve the automation of the Requisitioning portion of what we currently do manually for the most part. It seems like a rather large undertaking to take on this late in the lifecycle of
PS as it is being utilized in this corporation. I'm not sure whether naming the solution would be appropriate but if anyone has any
input, I'll be glad to provide you with further details.

Thanks

Instantiating an Excel Object from Peoplesoft page

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 23:53:27 +0000

Using the example from PeopleBooks returns an error on the ObjectGetProperty statement and I don't know what is wrong with it.
The code used is as follows:

Local object &WorkApp, &WorkBook;

&WorkApp = CreateObject ("COM", "Excel.Application");
&WorkBook = ObjectGetProperty(&WorkApp, "Workbooks");

etc
The message returned for the ObjectGetProperty statement says "Invalid parameter: CreateObject Excel.Application invalid class string for function ObjectGetProperty. The specified parameter is not correct for the function. It may be the wrong type of parameter (string, number, record, field etc) or an invalid value in this context.

Can anyone help?

Hi,

I have a requirement that the moment a person logs on to the Peoplesoft portal He/She Should get a Message depending on the Data Present in the Application Table even a MessageBox would do

I think using iScript in the Sigon Peopleocde this could be done but not sure about any other possible solution.

Expense Report error

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 16:52:16 +0000

FYI -
An Expense Report (meant for claiming expenses) is created by an Employee through 'Employee Self-service' option under the main menu, while a manager may approve the same report by navigating to 'Travel and Expenses'. An expense report may have multiple expense lines corresponding to each expense type incurred.
Per-diem overage is the scenario when the daily expenses claimed for a particular location exceed the allowed limit for that location. At submission, in case of overage, a delivered error throws up
asking the user to enter a description in the location comment field on the expense line and then submit the report.
'My Wallet' (delivered functionality) is a place to store the favorite or frequent expense transactions which may be imported into an expense report while claiming expenses.
Question:
When the user submits the expense report with expense type lodging per diem or meals per diems, PeopleSoft is NOT calculating the PerDiem Overage when populated from My Wallet. However, when the manager opens the expense report for approval, the PerDiem Overage is calculated and they can?t approve the report until they add a description in the location amount comment field.

Strange Behaviour of PeopleCode Global Variables in Firefox

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 03:13:34 +0000

I'm currently fixing some issues that appear to be due to some strange behaviour with global PeopleCode variables in Firefox only. Has anyone else come across this before?

For instance, a global variable is being set but then unset when moving between record PeopleCode, component PeopleCode and application package PeopleCode. The same code works fine when using Internet Explorer.

Receiving a "Error code 153 Subscript out of Range" error

Fri, 29 May 2009 20:22:19 +0000

The error looks like this.

Object Code error : file '/opt/psoft/pshcm/ptprd/cblbin/PSPBAELT.gnt'
error code: 153, pc=0, call=1, seg=0
153 Subscript out of range (in PSPBAELT.cbl, line 8276)

I have increased the occurs for PLAN-DATA in PSCPARTC copybook along with the max count but that doesn't seem to be the issue. Curious as to where I should check next.
