0 recomendaciones•114 vistas
From Reconnect Envision 2021 The Alerts Framework, which is a PeopleSoft Enterprise Component, enables you to alert your organization to errors, changes, and stalled transactions. It is a tool that is not limited to developers. If you can write a PeopleSoft Query, you can create an Alert. With alerts, you can scan PeopleSoft tables and receive alerts when exceptions are found. These alerts can include a link to the PeopleSoft page where you can review or correct the issue.

- 3. #PSRECONNECT Events and Notification Framework The Framework provides 3 features that can be used to monitor business process and create messages when unusual situations occur. • Events • Notifications • Alerts
- 4. #PSRECONNECT Events • Define, implement and run business logic for specified events • Define event and then build event handlers to automatically manage the event with minimal impact to delivered code • Business logic is contained within an Application Package • Requires Programming
- 5. #PSRECONNECT Steps to Set Up and Event • Define the Event in the Event Registry • Write an Event Handler using PeopleCode to execute the desired business logic • Register the Event Handler in the Event Registry
- 6. #PSRECONNECT Notifications • Monitor the system and send notifications when exceptions are found • Notifications can be sent to the Notification Dashboard, email, Worklist, or external system via XML. • Some notifications pre-delivered such as those related to inventory pegging. Others require configuration. • Notifications occur in “real time” • Requires Programming
- 7. #PSRECONNECT Steps to Set Up a Notification • Add a Process Name and Category to the Notification Registry • Create a Context Record to pass information to the framework (record must contain the EOEN_LOG_KEY subrecord) • Write code to implement the Notification using the EOEN_MVC:EOEN_MODEL.EOEN_INTERFACE class
- 8. #PSRECONNECT Alerts • Functionality is similar to Notifications • Instead of system customizations to send alerts in real time, the system relies on PeopleSoft Query. • Benefit is simplicity – if you can write a PeopleSoft query, you can create an alert. • An Application Engine program is run to generate the alerts based on whatever schedule you feel is appropriate

- 19. #PSRECONNECT Alert Definition – Alert Attributes
- 20. #PSRECONNECT Alert Definition – Recipients by User ID • By User List • The Operator ID must be a field in the query • Example – Buyer ID for PO Alerts or Collector ID for Receivables Alerts
- 21. #PSRECONNECT User List Definition • By Role • By SQL Definition (requires development) • By Query • By Application Class (requires development)
- 22. #PSRECONNECT Alert Definition – Recipients by User List • In this example, the recipients will be anyone in the specified list
- 23. #PSRECONNECT Alert Setup – Push Notifications • Category Type – Whether alert will be shown in the Alerts or Actions tab in the Fluid page top banner • URL: • None = The message has no URL Attached • Notification = User is pushed to the Notification Dashboard • Transaction = User is pushed to the specific Transaction URL • Event Name – Generally leave this as the default
- 24. #PSRECONNECT Alert Setup – Email Subject • Can define a Message Catalog entry for the email subject for any alert. There is a generic message provided that is often acceptable. • 17245

- 28. #PSRECONNECT Notification Overrides • If you put a User ID in the Query results, then the Alert can be sent to that individual • Option to send all notifications for a single BU to a specific user or list of users • Option to send all notifications for the entire system to a specific user or list of users

- 33. Recipient Overrides Defining Recipients Universally or by Business Unit – Regardless of of other settings
- 34. #PSRECONNECT BU Override – Add Override
- 36. #PSRECONNECT Additional Comments on Overrides • Use this screen to disable specific delivery methods • Worklist is either by User ID or by Role. • Email is either by User ID or by Email Address • Since email cannot be overridden by Role, it can be cumbersome to maintain if you have many users to send to – consider the use of email distribution lists defined in your email system.

- 39. Final Thoughts
- 40. #PSRECONNECT Potential Uses for Alerts • Transactions Past Due Date • Sales Orders Not Shipped • Purchase Orders Not Received • PIDs Not Completed • Inventory Stage Errors • Inventory Confirmation Errors • Billing Interface Errors • Inbound EDI Errors • PO Stage Errors • Any area where you have Exception Reports Today
- 41. #PSRECONNECT Additional Considerations • Put some thought into Process Name/Category • Allows you to control the Notification Overrides • Allows you to group the batch processing • Considerations for notification method • Email Alerts are proactive, but want to avoid “spamming” users with many unneeded Alerts • If relying on Worklist, then users need to be conditioned to look there regularly • Use XML Notifications to feed external systems
- 42. #PSRECONNECT Technical Topic – Editing the Email Template • If you don’t like the default email format, it can be altered via customization. • Code is found at the following location: EOEN_MVC.EOEN_MODEL.EoenNotificationByEmail.OnExecute • Email template is controlled by the HTML object EOEN_EMAIL_TEXT • By modifying this code and/or the HTML object, the contents and/or style of the email can be changed.
