Use JavaServer Faces controls to bind PeopleSoft SDOs.
After the SDO data objects are created for the Faces JSP page, they are ready to be bound with JSF controls. The easiest way to create the UI is by dragging and dropping the SDO data object from the "Page Data" view.
For each WPAI mediator, one or two SDO data objects are created. Please refer to the table below to find out how many SDO data objects will be created:
SDO Mediator Type | Action | Number of SDO Data Objects Created |
---|---|---|
PeopleSoft record | retrieve with or without filter criteria | 2 |
update or create | 2 | |
PeopleSoft record list | retrieve with or without filter criteria | 2 |
It is not always necessary to create UI for the parameters data object when it already contains initial values, which are calculated from the metadata. An example is when in the PeopleSoft wizards you have already configured filter criteria for the record or record list mediators, in which case the parameters SDO data object will be populated with the data in the filter criteria. On the other hand, you can still create an input form for the parameters SDO data object to populate it with data collected from the users and override the initial values.
