INTRODUCTION OF PEOPLESOFT FSCM ?
peoplesoft, Inc. was a company that provided human resource management systems (HRMS), Financial Management Solutions (FMS), supply chain management (SCM), customer relationship management (CRM), and enterprise performance management (EPM) software, as well as software for manufacturing, and student administration to large corporations, governments, and organizations. It existed as an independent corporation until its acquisition by Oracle Corporation in 2005. The PeopleSoft name and product line are now marketed by Oracle.
PeopleSoft Financial Management Solutions (FMS) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) are part of the same package, commonly known as Financials and Supply Chain Management (FSCM).
FSCM (Financial supply chain management) is a set of software tools and processes designed to enhance an organization’s product maximizing profitability and minimizing expenses. The FSCM process recognizes and analyzes interrelated events that impact pricing, payment terms, working capital and inventory. Peoplesoft FSCM Training takes advantage of principles that have proven effective in supply chain management (SCM) for decades.
PEOPLESOFT ARCHITECTURE
It provides multiple ways to connect to the underlying application. They are :
2-Tier :- Typical client-server based model
3-Tier :- Client-server model
4-Tier :- Web-based model
2-Tier way
It is a typical client-server model mostly used by the developers. The two tiers are the local machine where PSIDE.exe + the connectivity software is installed and the database server. The connectivity software is the database client. This method needs a ConnectID to be provided in the configuration manager. This model is mostly used by the developers who connect to the database directly from Application Designer.
The obvious drawback of this method is that it puts a load of pressure on the DB server whenever there is a large development team. Other drawbacks are : every developer machine needs to have the database client installed since all the machines will need a ConnectID – essentially a database user id – it allows all the users to have direct access to the underlying database
3-Tier
In this method, the client application connects to the App Server that is already connected to the DB server. Thus, this method does not require the ConnectID and associated password.
Here, the three tiers are the local machine where the PSIDE.exe is installed, the App Server and the DB server.
Under this model, most of the communication is between the App Server and the DB server thereby releasing the load on the latter. Hence, this model is suitable for larger development teams.
Other advantages of this model are :
database client need not be installed on each of the client machines
reduced network traffic between the client and the App server
4-Tier
ed the PIA. This is entirely a web-based solution. It was introduced with PeopleTools 8. There are no PeopleSoft executables on the client.
The four tiers here are the web browser, Web Server, App Server and the DB server.
Under this model, the client – web browser – connects to the Web server that is connected to the App server that ultimately is connected to the DB server. So, how does it really work? The following diagrams explains it.
The web client contacts the web server via http or xml The web server, using JOLT, connects to the App server The App server, using SQL, connects to the DB server, retrieves the information and sends the result back to the client via the web server Note : The final image is taken from here. The diagram also shows that this method allows integration with third-party / legacy applications as well as enterprise directory. Additionally, it provides the user with the flexibility of connecting to the PeopleSoft application through wired / wireless / mobile devices. The above architecture is application independent, i.e., all PeopleSoft applications like HCM, FSCM, etc. follow the same architecture.
