Adding a Handler to a Service Operation

To add a handler to a service operation use the Service Operations – Handlers page (IB_SERVICEHDLR).

This example illustrates the Service Operations – Handlers page.


Service Operations - Handlers page

To create a handler definition:

  1. Access the Service Operations–Handlers page (PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Integration Setup, and then Service Operation Definitions and click the Handlers tab).

  2. In the Handlers section, enter a handler name in the Name field.

    Note that for OnRequest, and OnRoute handlers, you need not enter a name. The system adds a handler name after you provide the handler details.

  3. From the Type drop-down list box, select the handler type.

    The service operation type determines the handler types that are available to choose.

    See Handler Types and Messaging Types.

    The valid values are:

  4. In the Sequence field, enter a number to specify the order of processing for the handler.

    The Sequence field appears only when there are multiple notification handlers defined and active for the service operation.

  5. From the Implementation drop-down list box, select the method to use to implement the handler.

    The handler type determines the available implementation methods.

    See Understanding Implementing Handlers.

  6. From the Status drop-down list box, select a status for the handler.

    Values are:

    • Active. (Default.) Select to make the handler active.

    • Inactive. Select to make the handler inactive.

  7. Click the Save button.

Repeat these steps to add additional handlers to the service operation.
