Selecting Data in the Message Schema Builder

When you access the Message Schema Builder component (IB_SCHEMABUILD) the Schema Builder page (IB_SCHEMABUILD) displays a search engine to use to search for messages and message schema data with which to work and view.

To access the Schema Builder page, select PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Service Utilities, and then Build Message Schemas.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Schema Builder page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
