PeopleSoft Application Engine enables you to develop, test, and run Application Engine programs. You use PeopleSoft Application Engine to develop batch or online programs that perform high-volume, background processing against your data.
In PeopleSoft Application Engine, a program is a set of SQL statements, PeopleCode, and program control actions that enable looping and conditional logic. Common batch programming needs, like parallel processing and restartability, are built into PeopleSoft Application Engine programs.
You define PeopleSoft Application Engine programs in PeopleSoft Application Designer.
