If your environment requires inbound
event support, you must use a custom event project in PeopleSoft.
A sample event project, IBM_EVENT_V600, is provided with the adapter.
You can modify and use and the sample project, or you can create your
own project by using PeopleTools. If you create your own project,
make sure that you complete the following steps.
- Use PeopleTools Application Designer to create and name
a new project.
- Create the fields for the new project as described in the
following table:
| Field name |
Field description |
|---|
| IBM_EVENT_ID |
A numeric value that is retrieved from IBM_FETCH_ID record.
This value is a unique ID for the event. |
| IBM_OBJECT_NAME |
The name of the corresponding business graph. |
| IBM_OBJECT_KEYS |
The get key property names in the Component Interface, followed
by the key values in name-value pairs. This information is used for
the component's retrieval from the EIS. |
| IBM_EVENT_STATUS |
If the event is ready to be polled, the status is set to
0 and the IBMPublishEvent function is called. |
| IBM_OBJECT_VERB |
The verb that is set on the business object graph that contains
the retrieved business object. |
| IBM_EVENT_DTTM |
The date on which the event is created. For a future dated
event, this is the effective date. |
| IBM_NEXT_EVENT_ID |
The field that has the latest event ID under the record IBM_FETCH_
ID. This field is incremented for each event that is added to the
IBM_EVENT_TBL, and it populates the IBM_EVENT_ID field in that table. |
| IBM_XID |
The transaction ID that is needed to provide assured event
delivery. |
- Create a record named IBM_EVENT_TBL and add to it all the
fields that you have just created, except IBM_NEXT_EVENT_ID.
- Create a record named IBM_FETCH_ID and add to it only the
IBM_NEXT_EVENT_ID field.
- Open the IBM_FETCH_ID record, select the IBM_NEXT_EVENT_ID
field, view the PeopleCode, and select fieldformula.
- Copy the PeopleCode for a custom event project from PeopleCode for a custom event project to the project that you are creating.
- Create a page under your project that contains the fields
of the IBM_EVENT_TBL record at level 0. The page can have any name.
- Create a component under your project that contains the
page that you have just created. The component can have any name.
- Create a Component Interface against this component and
give it any name. Confirm that you want to default the properties
that are based on the underlying component definition.
- Build the entire project, selecting all create options.
- Test and confirm that the Component Interface works, by
using the Component Interface tester.
- Generate the Java™ APIs
for the Component Interface, then add the generated classes to the
adapter classpath. For complete information about building
a PeopleTools project and testing the PeopleSoft Component Interface,
refer to PeopleSoft documentation.
