Converting Message Schemas to Managed Objects

This section discusses how to convert XML message schema to managed objects.

To convert message schemas to managed objects:

  1. Access the Service Administration – Metadata WSDL/Schema Convert page (PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Service Utilities, and then Integration Broker Admin and click the Metadata WSDL/Schema Convert tab).

  2. Select the XML message schema(s) to convert:

    • To select a specific schema to convert, in the Message Name field, enter the message name.

    • To select from all schema in the deprecated data repository, click the Search button under the Message Name field.

    Search results appear in the Non-Metadata Schemas grid.

  3. In the Non-Metadata Schemas grid, select the check box next to each message name that contains the schema to convert.

    If a check appears in the Schema Exists box, XML message schema already exists as a managed object for the message. You can choose to use the existing managed object schema, or select the check box in the Select column to convert the schema again and overwrite the existing schema.

  4. Click the Convert button under the Non-Metadata Schemas grid.

  5. The status of the conversion for each message schema that you converted appears in the Results field.

If you are unable to convert a schema to a managed object, rebuild the schema:

  • For rowset-based messages, open the message in the Messages-Message Definition page and save the message. Upon Save, PeopleSoft Integration Broker automatically builds the schema for the message.

  • For nonrowset-based messages use one of the following options to rebuild the schema:

    • Access the schema using the View Schema link on the Metadata Convert/Schema Convert page and copy it to the Messages-Schema page and correct and save the schema.

    • Access the schema using the View Schema link on the Metadata Convert/Schema Convert page and copy it into an XML editor and correct the schema. Then upload it into the system using the Messages-Schema page.

    • Upload or create a new schema using the Messages-Schema page.
