Setting Up EDI Manager for OUAC Transactions

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a means of transmitting data electronically from one entity to another. Through the EDI Manager, you can receive data files from external sources and load important recruiting and admissions data into staging tables, where you can review and edit the data. You can then post the data to tables in your database.

Before you begin processing external OUAC transactions, you must set up conversion parameters in the EDI Manager. This setup enables the EDI Manager to recognize OUAC elements (such as OUAC element number 400 - expected enrollment date) and to map data from OUAC elements to PeopleSoft objects (such as the field ADMIT_TERM in the table ADM_APPL_PROG).

To map OUAC elements to PeopleSoft objects, you must first define a conversion type definition, such as ADMIT_TERM, for the destination objects in your database. Use the Conversion Type Definition page to define conversion type definitions. Then, you must define conversion data profiles that relate internal values to external values. Use the Conversion Data Profile page to define conversion data profiles. Last, define an inbound map definition that links the OUAC element to the PeopleSoft object. Use the Business Document Layout page to map OUAC elements to PeopleSoft objects. EDI Manager pages are discussed in more detail in your PeopleSoft PeopleTools documentation.

This table lists the OUAC elements that are school specific:
