PeopleSoft scheduling integrated with enterprise workflows

Tidal’s pre-built adapter for PeopleSoft integrates with the Process Scheduler API to automate job creation, scheduling and tracking. Jobs that typically require manual input, such as run control IDs, process names and output destinations, can be defined, parameterized and reused in Tidal. ERP scheduling becomes easier to manage, more scalable and better aligned with enterprise-wide automation goals.

What the adapter enables

Tidal extends automation across PeopleSoft scheduling environments by enabling you to:

  • Automate time-based and event-driven scheduling across global time zones
  • Build dependencies with external systems and processes
  • Centralize job metadata, alerts and logs for complete process visibility
  • Configure run control IDs, process names, output destinations and file transfer settings
  • Execute NVision and Crystal reporting jobs
  • Integrate PeopleSoft jobs with Unix and SQL scripts
  • Manage Application Engine programs, SQR reports, COBOL jobs and Data Mover processes
  • Manage PeopleSoft Native (PSNT) and the Process Scheduler Server efficiently

How it works

Tidal connects to the PeopleSoft Process Scheduler via PeopleTools 8 and leverages standard APIs to trigger and monitor scheduled jobs. Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that both DBAs and business users can manage jobs within their designated scope, without compromising audit and compliance requirements.

Tidal logs all actions for traceability and helps you:

  • Track job status, execution time and queue history
  • Delegate scheduling responsibilities without risking system integrity
  • Eliminate manual handoffs by orchestrating end-to-end ERP workflows

PeopleTools 8

Tidal takes advantage of the capabilities provided by PeopleTools 8, allowing you to optimize and automate business processes. By utilizing features like output destinations, run control IDs and process names, Tidal simplifies the management and scheduling of PeopleTools 8 processes, boosting efficiency and productivity.
