Preface

Understanding the PeopleSoft Online Help and PeopleBooks


The PeopleSoft Online Help is a website that enables you to view all help content for PeopleSoft
applications and PeopleTools. The help provides standard navigation and full-text searching, as well as
context-sensitive online help for PeopleSoft users.

Hosted PeopleSoft Online Help


You can access the hosted PeopleSoft Online Help on the Oracle Help Center. The hosted PeopleSoft
Online Help is updated on a regular schedule, ensuring that you have access to the most current
documentation. This reduces the need to view separate documentation posts for application maintenance
on My Oracle Support. The hosted PeopleSoft Online Help is available in English only.

To configure the context-sensitive help for your PeopleSoft applications to use the Oracle Help Center,
see Configuring Context-Sensitive Help Using the Hosted Online Help Website.

Locally Installed PeopleSoft Online Help


If you’re setting up an on-premises PeopleSoft environment, and your organization has firewall
restrictions that prevent you from using the hosted PeopleSoft Online Help, you can install the online help
locally. Installable PeopleSoft Online Help is made available with selected PeopleSoft Update Images and
with PeopleTools releases for on-premises installations, through the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.

Your installation documentation includes a chapter with instructions for how to install the online help
for your business environment, and the documentation zip file may contain a README.txt file with
additional installation instructions. See PeopleSoft 9.2 Application Installation for your database platform,
“Installing PeopleSoft Online Help.”

To configure the context-sensitive help for your PeopleSoft applications to use a locally installed online
help website, see Configuring Context-Sensitive Help Using a Locally Installed Online Help Website.

Downloadable PeopleBook PDF Files


You can access downloadable PDF versions of the help content in the traditional PeopleBook format on
the Oracle Help Center. The content in the PeopleBook PDFs is the same as the content in the PeopleSoft
Online Help, but it has a different structure and it does not include the interactive navigation features that
are available in the online help.

Common Help Documentation


Common help documentation contains information that applies to multiple applications. The two main
types of common help are:

• Application Fundamentals

Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates. v


Preface

• Using PeopleSoft Applications

Most product families provide a set of application fundamentals help topics that discuss essential
information about the setup and design of your system. This information applies to many or all
applications in the PeopleSoft product family. Whether you are implementing a single application, some
combination of applications within the product family, or the entire product family, you should be familiar
with the contents of the appropriate application fundamentals help. They provide the starting points for
fundamental implementation tasks.

In addition, the PeopleTools: Applications User's Guide introduces you to the various elements of the
PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture. It also explains how to use the navigational hierarchy, components,
and pages to perform basic functions as you navigate through the system. While your application or
implementation may differ, the topics in this user’s guide provide general information about using
PeopleSoft applications.

Field and Control Definitions


PeopleSoft documentation includes definitions for most fields and controls that appear on application
pages. These definitions describe how to use a field or control, where populated values come from, the
effects of selecting certain values, and so on. If a field or control is not defined, then it either requires
no additional explanation or is documented in a common elements section earlier in the documentation.
For example, the Date field rarely requires additional explanation and may not be defined in the
documentation for some pages.

Typographical Conventions
The following table describes the typographical conventions that are used in the online help.

Typographical Convention Description

Key+Key Indicates a key combination action. For example, a plus sign


(+) between keys means that you must hold down the first key
while you press the second key. For Alt+W, hold down the Alt
key while you press the W key.

. . . (ellipses) Indicate that the preceding item or series can be repeated any
number of times in PeopleCode syntax.

{ } (curly braces) Indicate a choice between two options in PeopleCode syntax.


Options are separated by a pipe ( | ).

[ ] (square brackets) Indicate optional items in PeopleCode syntax.

& (ampersand) When placed before a parameter in PeopleCode syntax,


an ampersand indicates that the parameter is an already
instantiated object.

Ampersands also precede all PeopleCode variables.

vi Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates.


Preface

Typographical Convention Description

⇒ This continuation character has been inserted at the end of a


line of code that has been wrapped at the page margin. The
code should be viewed or entered as a single, continuous line
of code without the continuation character.

ISO Country and Currency Codes


PeopleSoft Online Help topics use International Organization for Standardization (ISO) country and
currency codes to identify country-specific information and monetary amounts.

ISO country codes may appear as country identifiers, and ISO currency codes may appear as currency
identifiers in your PeopleSoft documentation. Reference to an ISO country code in your documentation
does not imply that your application includes every ISO country code. The following example is a
country-specific heading: "(FRA) Hiring an Employee."

The PeopleSoft Currency Code table (CURRENCY_CD_TBL) contains sample currency code data. The
Currency Code table is based on ISO Standard 4217, "Codes for the representation of currencies," and
also relies on ISO country codes in the Country table (COUNTRY_TBL). The navigation to the pages
where you maintain currency code and country information depends on which PeopleSoft applications
you are using. To access the pages for maintaining the Currency Code and Country tables, consult the
online help for your applications for more information.

Region and Industry Identifiers


Information that applies only to a specific region or industry is preceded by a standard identifier in
parentheses. This identifier typically appears at the beginning of a section heading, but it may also appear
at the beginning of a note or other text.

Example of a region-specific heading: "(Latin America) Setting Up Depreciation"

Region Identifiers
Regions are identified by the region name. The following region identifiers may appear in the PeopleSoft
Online Help:

• Asia Pacific

• Europe

• Latin America

• North America

Industry Identifiers
Industries are identified by the industry name or by an abbreviation for that industry. The following
industry identifiers may appear in the PeopleSoft Online Help:

• USF (U.S. Federal)

Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates. vii


Preface

• E&G (Education and Government)

Translations and Embedded Help


PeopleSoft 9.2 software applications include translated embedded help. With the 9.2 release, PeopleSoft
aligns with the other Oracle applications by focusing our translation efforts on embedded help. We
are not planning to translate our traditional online help and PeopleBooks documentation. Instead we
offer very direct translated help at crucial spots within our application through our embedded help
widgets. Additionally, we have a one-to-one mapping of application and help translations, meaning that
the software and embedded help translation footprint is identical—something we were never able to
accomplish in the past.

Using and Managing the PeopleSoft Online Help

Chapter 1

Getting Started with Data Distribution


Framework

Data Distribution Framework Overview


PeopleTools Data Distribution Framework provides a mechanism to extract and flatten PeopleSoft data.
This data can be used for the purpose of machine learning. The data is hosted on the search engine. The
machine learning server pulls the data from the search engine for training the machine learning model.

PeopleTools Data Distribution Framework is built using the technology from PeopleSoft Search
Framework, such as mappings used to create search index definitions, search instance for defining search
server, and DirectTransfer technology used to index data from PeopleSoft to the search engine. The data is
made available in search engine in JSON format.

The search indexes built for search can be re-used for machine learning or other activities. The data
available from this framework can be used by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Data Science service
to create models that are used for prediction. The OCI Data Science platform is an Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure service. You can use an on-premise PeopleSoft instance or a PeopleSoft instance on OCI.

For more information on OCI Data Science service, see the Data Science documentation on the Oracle
Cloud Infrastructure Documentation website.

Data Distribution Framework Architecture


The application consists of the following:

• Data Source Definition - This is the data layer, which uses existing PeopleSoft data sources and
contains the definitions required to send data to the search engine from PeopleSoft.

• Search Instance - Data is sent to this search instance. Search instance is defined in PeopleSoft Search
Framework.

• Machine Learning Server configuration - This is the server, which uses the data in Data Distribution
framework and creates models.

Search engine stores the deployed search definitions, builds indexes, and maintains indexes. The OCI
Data Science platform pulls the data from search indexes and trains and builds a model.

The server topology includes the essential elements of a PeopleSoft system, and includes a search server
and an OCI Data Science service.

Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates. 11


Getting Started with Data Distribution Framework Chapter 1

The following diagram describes the interaction of the PeopleSoft system elements, search server, and the
OCI Data Science service.

The web server and application server (the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture) provide the interface for the
design, administration, and end user access. The PeopleSoft database stores the PeopleSoft queries that
define the search definition metadata.

12 Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates.


Chapter 2

Configuring Data Distribution Framework

Understanding Data Distribution Framework


The data distribution framework enables PeopleSoft users to build index and register a model. In
PeopleSoft, a search definition is the primary data definition, which mines data using PSQuery or
connected query as a data source. Search engine then builds an index and maintains indexes. PeopleSoft
enables you to register a model created in OCI Data Science service.

The process flow involves the following steps:

1. PeopleSoft sends data to the search engine using Direct Transfer.

2. OCI Data Science service pulls data from the search engine.

3. The data is used to train the machine learning model in the Jupyter notebook on the OCI Data Science
service.

4. When the model is created, it can be saved in the OCI object storage.

5. The saved model can be deployed as a REST service using OCI Functions and OCI API Gateway.

6. PeopleSoft registers the REST endpoint.

Copyright © 1988, 2025, Oracle and/or its affiliates. 13


Configuring Data Distribution Framework Chapter 2

The following diagram illustrates the process flow among PeopleSoft, search server, and OCI Data
Science service.

This documentation covers the tasks that are performed in PeopleSoft. For tasks that should be performed
on the OCI Data Science service, such as creating a model, deploying model as REST service and so on,
refer to the OCI Data Science documentation on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Documentation website.

PeopleSoft provides a navigation collection – Data Distribution Setup – that enables you to perform the
following tasks:

• Set up data source.

• Specify OCI Data Science server.

• Build an index in the search engine.

• Register a model.

Setting Up Data Source


Before you can set up the data source, you should identify the data that you require for analytics. For this
purpose, you create a search definition in PeopleSoft Search Framework.
