Query Manager
The Query Manager gives you a useful GUI interface to create customized queries. You can create a nice end-user layer with trees to keep a tight handle on the security within the queries. Unless the record you are accessing in the Query is in the tree that you have the permission for, you will not be able to see the results of the query.
  • One of the main features of the Query Manager is that it will automatically join the Effective Date and Effective Sequence for you properly, so if you are new to PeopleSoft and having a hard time getting your queries properly written, use the Query Manager to help create the queries you need.
  • You also get the added advantage in your queries of running them and dropping the results into Excel. This is a nice feature: you can convert your ad hoc queries into queries in the Query Manager, give your customers access, and allow them to run them on demand and put the results into Excel.
  • Users can have the permission (depending on what the security administrator has given them) to save their queries, modify existing queries and save them under a different name, and delete queries.
