Properties

Properties provide access to both component data and component interface settings. Component interfaces include two types of properties: standard and user-defined.

• Standard properties are assigned automatically when a component interface is created.

  Standard properties can be set to true or false. These properties are not displayed in the PeopleSoft Application Designer. Examples of standard properties include InteractiveMode, GetHistoryItems, and EditHistoryItems.

• User-defined properties map to record fields on the PeopleSoft component and are displayed in the PeopleSoft Application Designer.

  A property can correspond to a field or a scroll (collection). You can control which user-defined properties are included on the component interface.

Note:

Every PeopleSoft Application Designer definition—including the component interface—has a definition properties dialog box in which you make design-time settings for the definition. Those properties should not be confused with the runtime properties that are discussed here.
