Understanding the PeopleSoft Related Content Framework

This section lists prerequisites and limitations, and discusses:

The PeopleSoft Related Content Framework enables developers and subject matter experts to link application pages with contextually relevant collaborative content, which creates opportunities for the user to view or quickly access information that supports, extends, and augments any PeopleSoft transaction. The PeopleSoft Related Content Framework ties together all types of content such as queries, discussion threads, PeopleSoft component data, Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) analytics, queries, discussion threads, and any relevant non-PeopleSoft data on PeopleSoft application pages.

Related content services can be any collaborative, analytical, or informational content that is useful for completing business tasks. Related content services include any content such as PeopleSoft components; pagelets or tiles that are offered as services to be consumed by applications; or related discussion forums, wiki pages, or links. Related content services can be configured within the same database, among multiple PeopleSoft databases, and between a PeopleSoft database and external sources.
