How the Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise works

This topic describes how the Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise works.

The Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise accesses PeopleSoft applications running on application servers by connecting to two layers of PeopleTools API classes in the following order:

  1. The adapter accesses the primary layer to create a session instance and to connect to the application server through the Jolt port.
  2. The adapter then accesses the PeopleSoft Component Interface Java API and uses it to communicate with the EIS. Once the adapter connects to this layer of the PeopleSoft architecture, the following entities are exposed and available to the adapter:
    • All business objects in the component interface definition.
    • PeopleCode methods associated with the underlying components.
    • Records, except searches and menu-specific processing options.
