PSACCESSLOG Enhancements in PeopleTools 8.60

" Shut the door " ... every household has shouted it (or been shouted at). Why? Well, it keeps the house draft free and secure and it's polite not to leave the door open. Session State in WebLogic Every time a user logs into PeopleSoft a user session state object is created in the web server. This memory based object is used to hold the user session data including where the user is on a component (i.e. what page), what they entered in the previous pages, the component buffer, etc. This state object naturally consumes memory in WebLogic.

You can watch the Video Feature Overview covering the new Search Framework enhancement here . One of the first things you're going to notice when you start using PeopleTools 8.60 is that all the component search pages look different. New PeopleTools 8.60 Component Search Page Using Configurable Search Framework there's a whole ton of changes you can now make to both Classic and Fluid search pages without the need to make a customisation including Change the sea
