Writing Data to a Flat File
• File Class Methods– ReadLine (string)
W it Li ( t i )– WriteLine (string)– WriteString (string)

Methods to Read and WriteMethods to Read and Write(Plain Text Files)• WriteRecord- writes the contents of a record
object to the file. You can use this to write one file record at a time and not have toone file record at a time and not have to instantiate and populate a rowset object.
• WriteRowset- writes the contents of a rowset object rowset to the output file associatedobject, rowset, to the output file associated with the file object that calls the method. Calling this method one time writes the entire gcontents of the rowset to the file.

CreateRowset
Local Rowset &rs_carry_desig;
&rs_carry_desig = CreateRowset(Record.AV_DESIGNATION);

CreateSQL FunctionI t ti t SQL bj t f th SQL l th it• Instantiates a SQL object from the SQL class—then it opens it on the sqlstring and/or input values.
• The sqlstring is the parameter that holds the SQLThe sqlstring is the parameter that holds the SQL statement
• SQL errors will cause PeopleCode to terminate with an error
• MetaSQL%SelectAll is a way to select everything in a record– %SelectAll is a way to select everything in a record
– Tip: Remember to wrap DateTime fields with %DateOut, %TimeOut, %DateIn, and %TimeIn

Steps for Creating a Multilevel Steps for Creating a Multilevel File Layout1 C t Vi1. Create a View2. Create a new file layout3 Drop and drag the view into the layout3. Drop and drag the view into the layout4. Use the toolbar arrows to determine hierarchy5. Double-click the record name to set segment
properties6. Assign a unique file record ID to each record7 Note: start position and length are set automatically7. Note: start position and length are set automatically8. Click OK9. Click Yes to increment the start position of all fields 10. Save the File

File Record ID
• Identifies the record• Can be used with fixed and CSV files• ID must be included in your flat file• Assigned at the file layout segment level

Segments
• Uses:– Specify the action to take for rows of data
Li it fi ld th fil l t– Limit fields on the file layout– Identify File Layout
![Page 23: Using People Soft File Layout](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050801/55372d92550346d5788b4d19/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Indicate Action
• You need to send a flat file to another app– Indicate Action
Insert• Insert• Update• Delete
• Use Segment to indicate the action
![Page 24: Using People Soft File Layout](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050801/55372d92550346d5788b4d19/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Limit Fields
• Following provided from: “PeopleSoft Integration Tools and Utilities”, File Layout and Data Interchange sectionand Data Interchange section
• You have a file and you only want two fields from itfrom it
• One way is to update everything and then manually delete the unwanted datamanually delete the unwanted data
• Or insert a segment name it the same as the table and insert only the two fields you wanttable and insert only the two fields you want
![Page 25: Using People Soft File Layout](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050801/55372d92550346d5788b4d19/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Limit Fields Cont.
• You have data that changes or you need to insert new rowsC t i l fi ld d AUDIT ACTION• Create a single field named AUDIT_ACTION which will indicate if the record is new or changedchanged
• Use PeopleCode to look for the field and value and process conditional logicvalue and process conditional logic

Identifying the File Layout
• Use a segment to identify the part of the file you want to import
999 P d t /* PRODUCT l t*/999 Product /*use PRODUCT layout*/

Steps to work with a SegmentD d d d i t th fil l t• Drag and drop your record into the file layout
• Select InsertSegment• Segment
• Record Name, Max Length, & File Record ID (if you have one))
• Place your cursor on the Segment Name• Select
– Insert File Field or– Insert Database Field
Then arrange the Segments in the order you want• Then arrange the Segments in the order you want
