Reviewing Installed Products

Before you can begin working with any PeopleSoft EPM application, you must specify installation options to indicate how you plan to use the system and which applications you will be using. Installation options are defined for your entire database—they are not specific to a business unit or SetID.

This topic discusses how to:

Review installed PeopleSoft EPM products.
Review installed PeopleSoft Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) products.
Set Web Services options.

Allowed Concurrent Merges

Enter the number of concurrent merges allowed in your installation. The default is 3, which matches the number of record suites that are delivered with your system.

Process wait time (Seconds)

Enter the process wait time. The default is 60 seconds. Waiting improves performance of processes by eliminating repeated database requests.

Warning! Because each merge job in a jobstream reads in the number of concurrent updates, changing its value while merge processes are running can have unexpected results. Changes to the process wait time affect only subsequent runs of the engine.

Applets

Select if you are using applets with PeopleSoft Activity-Based Management or Scorecard. See the application-specific documentation for more information on using the chart server and enabling applets.

Chart Server

Select if you are using the chart server to create charts through PeopleSoft Activity-Based Management, Scorecard, or the financial services industry applications (PeopleSoft Risk-Weighted Capital, Asset Liability Management, or Funds Transfer Pricing).
