    The document discusses PeopleSoft component interfaces. It provides definitions of key elements like component interface name, keys, properties, collections and methods. It describes how to invoke a component interface in PeopleCode by establishing a session, getting the interface definition, populating keys, creating an instance, populating fields and saving. It also discusses how to provide security, test interfaces, catch errors, traverse collections and login in correction mode for a component interface.

    The key takeaways from the document are the main elements of a component interface like component interface name, keys, properties and collections, methods. It also discusses the difference between get keys, find keys and create keys and how to provide security to the component interface.

    The main elements of component interface are - Component interface name, Keys, Properties and collections, Methods.

    Get keys are mapped to fields marked as scrh in search record. Find keys are mapped to fields marked as Alt or Srch. Create Keys are generated from key fields of search record.

    Peoplesoft Interview Questions - Component Interface

    1) What are the main elements in the component Interface ?

    Main elements of component Interface

    • Component interface name

    • Keys

    • Properties and collections

    • Methods

    2) Difference between Get keys, find keys and Create Keys ?

    Get keys: - These are mapped to the fields marked as scrh in the component’s search
    record. Automatically “Search key” fields in search record become Get keys.

    We cannot change it.

    Find keys: - These are mapped to fields marked as Alt or Srch in the component search
    record. You may remove Find keys that you do not wish to make available for searching.

    Create Keys: - It is generated from the key fields for the search record. If Add search
    record is present then its key fields are taken. We cannot change it.

    3) How do you provide security for the component interface?

    • Open the Permission list


    • On the Component Interface tab
    • Add row and select the newly created Component Interface
    • Edit the permissions to give permission for the standard methods
    • Get, Create, Save, cancel, find.

    4) What the steps that you need to do in people code to invoke Component Interface?

    • Establish a user section


    • Get the component interface definition
    • Populate the create keys
    • Create an instance of the component interface
    • Populate the required fields
    • Save the component Interface.

    &Session = GetSession();

    &CI = &Session.GetcompIntfc(CompIntfc.INTERFACE_NAME)

    &CI.KEY_FILED_NAME = ‘NEW’

    If not &CI.Create () Then

    Else

    Populate other fields

    End-if;

    Populate the other fields

    If not &CI.Save () Then

    Else

    End-if;

    5) How do you test Component Interface?

    • Using the Component Interface tester


    • Give values in the tester for options
    • Get Existing, Create new, Find and perform the operation from the CI Tester

    6) Catching error message in the component Interface? Or


    Use of PSMessages in the CI ?

    This function needs to be called when ever methods like Find, Save, Create methods
    return false.

    Error text and Error type can be printed in the log message for any other action in to
    the log messge.

    Function CheckErrorCodes()

    &PSMessages = &Session.PSMessages;

    &ErrorCount = &PSMessages.Count;

    For &i = 1 To &ErrorCount

    &ErrorText = &PSMessages.Item(&i).Text;

    &ErrorType = &PSMessages.Item(&i).Type;

    End-For;

    End-Function;

    7) What is method? What are the different types of method?

    Methods: - A method is an object that performs a very specific function on a component


    interface at run-time.

    Standard methods and user-defined methods.

    Standard methods: - Automatically generated upon the creation of a new component


    Interface in Application.
    Apart from the Standard methods there are Standard methods available for the use with
    any collection.

    User-Defined methods: - User-defined methods are those that you can create to meet the
    requirements of an individual component interface.

    8) What are properties?

    The Fields in the level 0 in the component are the properties of the component.

    Standard properties User-Defined properties

    Createkeyinfocollection Developer can further control the exposed


    Getkeyinfocollection field properties.

    Findkeyinfocollection

    Property Info collection

    GetHistoryItems (Update/Display mode or Correction mode)

    EditHistory Items

    InteractiveMode.

    9) Traversing the Collections in the Component Interface?

    COLL_JOB – Collection

    Coll_JOBItm – Row in the collection.

    &COLL_JOBCol = &CI_JOB_DATA.COLL_JOB;

    For &i = 1 to &COLL_JOBCol.Count

    &COLL_JOBItm = &COLL_JOBCol.Item (&i);

    &COLL_JOB_JRCol = &COLL_JOBItm.COLL_JOB_JR;

    For &J = 1 to &COLL_JOB_JRCol.Count

    &COLL_JOB_JRItm = &COLL_JOB_JRCol.Item (&j);


    &COLL_JOB_JRItm.KEYPROP_EFFDT =;

    10) How do you login in correction mode in the Component Interface?

    Get History Items and Edit History items property to should be set to true.

    Get History Items alone: - Update display all - modes will be used.
