Setting Up the Integration to the Oracle Supplier Network

Complete the following tasks within PeopleSoft to enable the integration between PeopleSoft eProcurement and eSettlements to OSN.

  1. Review the EDX PO Dispatch Types page. The sample data contains the EDX PO Dispatch Type of OAG72 for dispatching purchase orders to the Oracle Supplier Network. Review this information and make any changes necessary for your environment.

  2. Use the Linked Suppliers page to connect PeopleSoft suppliers to OSN suppliers. For each supplier, you can define the EDX PO dispatch type OAG72 (for OSN suppliers) and define OSN information to enable the connection.

  3. In the PeopleSoft Integration Broker, review and activate the service operations used to integrate PeopleSoft to OSN.

  4. Create a node to connect to the Oracle Supplier Network. The PeopleSoft system is delivered with the PSFT_ORACLE_SUPPLIER_NETWORK node for the Oracle Supplier Network.

    See PeopleTools: Integration Broker, "Adding and Configuring Nodes".

  5. Activate a routing to be used with the node. The PeopleSoft system is delivered with routings for the service operation needed to integrate with OSN. These routings contain the transformation programs needed to convert messages from OAG to PSXML and vice versa. These routings can be altered to fit your environment.

    See PeopleTools: Integration Broker, "Managing Routing Definitions".

  6. Review or change queue definitions. The PeopleSoft system is delivered with queues for the service operation needed to integrate with OSN.

    See PeopleTools: Integration Broker, "Managing Service Operation Queues".

  7. Setup node connectors. The PeopleSoft system is delivered with the fscm_epo_OSNListeningConnector connector.

PeopleSoft users can leverage OSN's Transaction Monitor to view message statuses and errors, use self-service tools to connect to OSN, and test the ability to transmit inbound and outbound documents. Users can receive notifications of incoming messages that are applicable to them. For example, PeopleSoft eSettlements administrators can receive alerts for inbound invoices only.
