Importing the Delivered Mobile Application Archive
After installing PeopleTools, there is an additional folder in the PS_HOME\setup directory, named \MAF. This is where the PeopleSoft mobile application archive file (.maa) resides.
To import the PeopleSoft archive file:
In JDeveloper, select File > Import.
From the Import dialog box, select MAF Application from Archive File, and click OK.
