Creating Process Definitions

Select PeopleTools, and then Process Scheduler, and then Process Scheduler Processes to access the Processes - Process Definition page.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Processes - Process Definition page.

To use PeopleSoft Process Scheduler for starting Application Engine batch programs, create a process definition for each program. Running Application Engine programs is similar to running any COBOL or Structured Query Report (SQR) program that you typically invoke with PeopleSoft Process Scheduler. Use Application Engine as the generic process type definition. Each Application Engine program that you invoke using PeopleSoft Process Scheduler requires a unique process definition derived from the generic process type definition.

Note:

When creating a process definition based on the Application Engine process type definition, the process name you assign must match your Application Engine program name exactly.
