Run Controls, Equations, Trees, & Jobs

Documenting the programming behind FA run controls, equations, trees, and jobs in PeopleSoft

Categories (4)

Run Controls

Saved, process-specific instructions that tell PeopleSoft what to do, saving time for repeated tasks. Run controls are tied to the user who creates them but can be copied or recreated for others to use.

Equations

Equation Engine / Equations are a versatile tool that SFS uses to perform numeric calculations and insert/update data on PeopleSoft tables.

Tree Manager

Tree Manager enables referencing central values instead of hardcoding certain variables in queries or equations, making it easy to update them all at once. This section focuses on tracking which processes and equations depend on tree nodes, rather than documenting each node’s individual values.

Jobsets

SFS uses jobsets to link multiple run controls so they can run sequentially. Good for streamlining multi-step processes.
