Designing with Application Adapters

Activating the Message Definition to Receive Enterprise Service Bus Posts

PeopleSoft comes with a set of predefined message definitions. The desired message definition is configurable in the adapter with the Subject property. The following instructions describe how to activate the message definition for subscription to the PeopleSoft Adapter.


Note –

For purposes of this publication the ADVANCED_SHIPPING_RECEIPT Message Definition is activated for publish / subscribe.


Each message used for publication must be defined. This definition corresponds to the XML message the adapter publishes, and contains the elements of the data to be published. However, before the Adapter can publish any data, the message definition must be activated. The Application Designer includes a list of these definitions.
