Enabling Email Approval

PeopleSoft General Ledger uses Enterprise Components email collaboration framework for journal email approval. For you to use this feature, the PeopleSoft Integration Broker must be configured to run, the email collaboration framework must be configured, and all the following General Ledger-related Integration Broker objects must be activated:

• Service operation JRNL_AF_EM_APPROVAL

• Service operation JRNL_AF_EM_APPROVAL handler

• Service operation JRNL_AF_EM_APPROVAL routing

Perform the following setup steps to enable email approval:

1. Activate the aforementioned service operations (PeopleTools, Integration Broker, Integration Setup, Service Operations).

2. Set the Integration Broker queue, GL_EM_APPROVAL, to run (PeopleTools, Integration Broker, Integration Setup, Queues).

3. Select the Use Email Approvals check box on the Register Transactions page.

4. Provide the Email Approval User List on the Configure Transaction page.

See PeopleSoft Enterprise Components documentation, Email Collaboration Framework.
