Modifying PeopleSoft Processes to Create Notifications

This section discusses how to modify PeopleSoft processes to generate notifications. Not all PeopleSoft processes are delivered with the ability to produce notifications. Your IT department can alter a batch and online process to generate notifications based on your needs.

Once you have added a new process name and process category to the Notification Registry page, you can customize a PeopleSoft process to send notifications.

Follow these steps to add to the notification registry:

1. Add your process name and category to the Notification Registry page.

   1. Add the description and long text description, which describes the functionality of the message that is logged into the registry so that you can assign the appropriate user to the notification classification.

   2. Disable any notification feature that your application does not allow you to override at the system and business unit levels.

      These notifications are handled within the object interface directly.

2. Create a message context record to pass all transactional data through the message framework.

   1. All context records must include the EOEN_LOG_KEY subrecord.

   2. Any additional transactional fields can be added to the context record.

3. Implement the EOEN interface object within your application process by using the EOEN_MVC:EOEN_MODEL.EOEN_INTERFACE class.
