Special Uses of Interwindow Communication

Several PeopleTools features use interwindow communication in specific and unique manners:

• Interwindow communication can be used to synchronize changes between pivot grid pagelets. The publishing field name is always PVGPUB; the subscribing field name is always PVGSUB. In addition, there is a specific nomenclature for specifying a filter or a prompt as either the published message data or as the subscribing field.

  See Pivot Grid: Pivot Grid Pagelet Overview for more information.

• Interwindow communication can be used to subscribe to push notification events defined on the server. Always select Server Sub as the event type; then use the Map Event Data To Page Elements page to complete configuration of the remaining items by mapping event data to page elements.
