Sending FAX from Peoplesoft
MESSAGEmanager supports the fax integration protocol written and supported by Peoplesoft. Peoplesoft applications write fax documents to a designated directory location on the server with a control file containing information to direct and identify the fax such as the recipients and the fax address. Files can be in Postscript, PCL or Windows formats.
MESSAGEmanager polls the directory for documents to be faxed and routes them to a FAX Server for processing.
Prerequisites: MESSAGEmanager File Pick Up API and PCL or Postscript Interpreter
Sending FAX from Oracle
You can interface MESSAGEmanager to Oracle Applications in a number of ways-
- Create an output fax file (text or postscript) with embedded commands and store in a "pickup"
directory. Text control files can specify image files for overlay if the application is currently using pre-printed stationery. Requires File Pick Up API - Submit any type of attachment file (Word document, text, PostScript, PCL etc.) to the Server using COM. Requires no additional software.
- With Oracle Reports, you can generate a print file with embedded fax commands and print to a PostScript print queue on the FAX Server (requires Network Printer Interface and API).
- Use the Jetform Output Pak to extend the Oracle Reports capability and allow easy printing and distribution to fax and email of sophisticated, high-quality documents such as invoices, purchase orders and shipping documents. Jetform submits faxes to MESSAGEmanager via the Postscript Network Printer Interface or the PostScript API directory. Using the Jetform Output Pak for Oracle Applications means the formatting is stored in the Jetform form and not on the report, so that only the data elements appear there. The Jetform Output Pak contains a variety of field tagged reports and pre-designed form templates that work "out-of-the-box" with Oracle applications. These forms and reports can be implemented without making changes to the Oracle application or its existing reports. The Jetform reports are simplified versions of the standard Oracle reports, which are added to those already in the system. If a new form, not in the Output Pak, needs to be created it is done so easily with the Output Pak's Form Builder. The Form Builder will read an existing Oracle report and produce both a new field tagged report and a matching Jetform Design e-form template.
