| EDI Manager |
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is a standard means of exchanging data between companies so that they can transact business electronically. PeopleSoft EDI Manager enables you to define event and action codes, define EDI transactions, set up trading partners, map transactions, and monitor transaction processing. |
| Outgoing Forms API |
Forms routing enables the system to take data from a PeopleSoft application page on which a user is working, enter it into a third-party form, and mail the completed form to designated users by means of the forms product’s mail capabilities. The PeopleSoft system provides a PSFORMS dynamic link library (PSFORMS.DLL) that PeopleSoft applications use to communicate with forms software, which includes session-level, query, and send operations. |
| Open Query ODBC Driver and API |
The PeopleSoft Open Query ODBC driver and API enable third-party reporting tools or applications to access PeopleSoft data in conformance with the PeopleSoft Query access architecture (the embedded SQL access intelligence provided by PeopleSoft Query). |
