Understanding Comments and Attachments View Framework

The Comments and Attachments View Framework enables users to view comments and attachments at a common location or page. This can be configured in PeopleSoft components where comments or attachments or both need to be displayed.

The steps involved in the configuration, setup and registration of the Comments and Attachments View framework are:

  1. DataSource View

  2. Configuration Setup

  3. Configuration ID Mapping

  4. Implementation

DataSource View

The DataSource View should be an SQL query to fetch Comments (or) Attachments (or) both for a transaction. The Query/View has to be with proper keys on each level (Transaction, Comments and Attachments)

Configuration Setup

Configuration ID needs to be setup to use the framework. Based on the Query/View created, appropriate fields appear in the configuration setup. For details on Configuration Setup, see CAVF Configuration Setup Page

Configuration ID Mapping

Configuration ID Mapping setup used for calling Configuration ID dynamically in PeopleCode event. For more details, see CAVF Configuration ID Component Mapping Page
