PeopleSoft Engineering Implementation

PeopleSoft Setup Manager enables you to generate a list of setup tasks for your organization based on the features that you are implementing. The setup tasks include the components that you must set up, listed in the order in which you must enter data into the component tables, and links to the corresponding product documentation.

PeopleSoft Engineering also provides component interfaces to help you load data from your existing system into PeopleSoft Engineering tables. Use the Excel to Component Interface utility with the component interfaces to populate the tables.

This table lists all of the components that have component interfaces:

Component	Component Interface	Reference
Item Load from Excel	IN_MST_ITM_XLS	See Understanding Item Loading.
Define Item Groups	INV_ITEM_GROUPS.CI	See Item Groups Page.
BOM Access by Supplier	EN_IC_BOM_PRIV_CI	See Defining BOM, ECR, and ECO Access by Supplier.
Define Engineering Routings	EN_EROUTING_CI	See PeopleSoft Engineering Routings.

Other Sources of Information

In the planning phase of your implementation, take advantage of all PeopleSoft sources of information, including the installation guides, table-loading sequences, data models, and business process maps. A complete list of these resources appears in the preface in the PeopleSoft Application Fundamentals with information about where to find the most current version of each.
