ePay integration flow with other PeopleSoft applications

We discuss integration considerations in the implementation chapters in this PeopleBook.

ePay Navigation

The standard menu driven navigation path through Self Service, Payroll and Compensation is the traditional PeopleSoft access method. Menu navigation is used throughout this PeopleBook to describe how to access a page.

ePay Roles and Security

User roles determine default access to transactions. Set up user roles on the Roles page in the User Profiles component (USERMAINT). Profiles are linked to permission lists. Permission lists identify the pages that users can access. To modify access to specific web pages for each role, modify the permission list. User profiles also control the data that each employee can access.

ePay Implementation

PeopleSoft Setup Manager enables you to generate a list of setup tasks for your organization based on the features that you are implementing. The setup tasks include the components that you must set up, listed in the order in which you must enter data into the component tables, and links to the corresponding PeopleBook documentation.

Other Sources of Information

In the planning phase of your implementation, take advantage of all PeopleSoft sources of information, including the installation guides, table-loading sequences, data models, and business process maps.
