We finally got our cobol compiled. We brought back our Production cobol and reapplied the tax updates and recompiled and this worked no compile errors.

Hi Mandala,

I definitely think there should be differences in the tables structure between app designer and the database definition.

Sometimes we change (add/delete/modify) the field of the table directly in the database directly without using psbuild process to build it and that could cause this issue.

Thanks

Hi Mandala,

You’re not missing anything. PeopleSoft does not deliver proactive alerts for late start, late end, queue backlog, or silent non-execution scenarios out of the box. The delivered alerts (for example, using E_EOEN_ALERT) generally trigger after execution failure, not when a job is delayed, running too long, or never runs at all.

I ran into the same gaps across multiple PeopleSoft environments (HCM / FSCM / CS), especially after upgrades or scheduler restarts where recurrences existed but processes never re-queued. Oracle support responses typically confirm this is not a delivered capability today.

To address this, I developed a PeopleTools-only monitoring framework that runs alongside Process Scheduler and Process Monitor. At a high level, it focuses on:

• Detecting late-starting and long-running jobs
• Identifying missed or silently stopped schedules
• Monitoring scheduler queue backlogs beyond defined thresholds
• Generating proactive alerts before business impact occurs

The solution relies only on delivered PeopleTools (AE, PeopleCode, scheduler tables) and maintains its own execution history, so it isn’t impacted by Process Monitor purge cycles. No delivered objects are modified, and it can be scheduled like any other PeopleSoft batch process.

This helped close the same gaps you described that external schedulers often address, while keeping everything inside PeopleSoft for auditability and operational control.

Hope this helps.
