Running the Client Setup Process

To run the Client Setup process:

  1. In Configuration Manager, select the Client Setup tab.

  2. In the Group Title text box, enter the name of the program group for the icons you want on the client workstation.

  3. Select check boxes to create shortcut links for PeopleSoft applications that you want to access from the workstation.

    When you run the Client Setup process, it removes existing shortcuts in the PeopleSoft 8.x program group and installs shortcuts for the applications that you have selected. If you later want to install or uninstall shortcuts, you can always run Client Setup again.

  4. Select the Install Workstation check box.

    Client Setup runs when you click Apply or OK in PeopleSoft Configuration Manager. If this check box is not selected, the Client Setup process creates or updates settings in the registry, but it doesn't set up the PeopleSoft 8.x program group or install local DLLs.

  5. Click Apply to run the Client Setup process and apply other PeopleSoft Configuration Manager settings.

  6. To view a list of the files installed and actions taken by the Client Setup process, open the psinstal.log file in your Temp directory.
