Creating New File Layout Definitions

In PeopleSoft Application Designer, select File, and then New, and then File Layout.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the File layout with two records in a hierarchy. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

File layout with two records in a hierarchy

A new file layout contains only one element, the root node to which file records are attached. The default root node name is NEW FILE.

Save the new file layout definition. You are prompted to name the file layout, which also becomes the name of the root node.

Note:

The default file layout format is FIXED.
