Configuring PeopleSoft HCM and ELM for Learning Search

Learning Global Search can be enabled from the HCM database through Integration Broker. The search artifacts reside in, and must be indexed in, the ELM database. For the Learning search to work from the HCM database, you must perform several configuration steps. This topic provides an overview of those steps.

Steps for Configuring HCM and ELM Databases for Learning Search

With Integration Broker configured to allow the PeopleSoft HCM and ELM databases to communicate, follow these steps to further configure the databases for the Learning remote global search.

  1. Add the Integration Administration role to the administrative user in both the ELM and HCM databases.

  2. Add the ELM default local node as the network node in the HCM database, and the HCM default local node as the network node in the ELM database (PeopleTools > Integration Broker > Integration Network > Network Setup).

  3. Set up the Portal Nodes (HRMS and ELM), Portal URI, and Content URI in the both of the databases (PeopleTools > Integration Broker > Integration Setup > Nodes).

  4. Add the Search- Learning role to all users in ELM who will use the Learning global search.

  5. Import the Learning remote search group from ELM into the HCM database (PeopleTools > Search Framework > Administration > Remote Search Groups).

    To import, enter the ELM default local node PSFT_LM in the Content Provider field on the Remote Search Groups page, and select Import. Then, on the Import Search Groups page, select the LS_LM_LEARNING_<ELM Database Name>. as theSearch Category Name.

    For more information, see PeopleTools: PeopleSoft Search Technology, “Administering PeopleSoft Search Framework,” Importing Remote Search Groups.

  6. Add the imported search group to the home page search context (PeopleTools > Search Framework > Administration > Define Search Contexts).

  7. Add the HCM and ELM default local nodes to the Single Signon page in the HCM database and in the ELM database (PeopleTools > Security > Security Objects > Single Signon).
