Download PeopleSoft Applications for Free

This may be old news to most of you, but it came as a very pleasant surprise to me. You can download the current version of any PeopleSoft Enterprise and Enterprise One product for free for 30 days from Oracles web site.

You just have to agree to the license terms, the export restrictions, and be willing to spend quality time downloading and unzipping the files.

If youre current on support, you can download and install the products without having to wait for Customer Care to send you CDs. In fact, this service replaces eDelivery service that PeopleSoft customers used to pay a premium for.

Here are the links youll need:
http://edelivery.oracle.com - eDelivery site where you can download the current versions
http://LicenseCodes.oracle.com - Get a license code to unlock the full application

If you use eDelivery to download and install new programs, you'll need to update your installation options table and uncheck the applications that you haven't licensed. Here's the quote from the PeopleTools 8.47 Installation and Upgrade Guide:

If you obtain your software using E-Delivery, you must carry out an additional step after completing the installation process, creating the database, installing the Application Server, and installing the Pure Internet Architecture. Sign into the PeopleSoft system and navigate to the Installation table on the Products tab. The location of this table will vary depending upon the application you installed. In the Installation table, uncheck the products for which you have not purchased support.

Note. PeopleSoft does not support CDs that you burn at your own site from E-Delivery files.

30 days isnt very long to install and evaluate a software application as complicated as PeopleSoft, so if youd like some assistance getting it up and running as quickly as possible, give me a call. I can also walk you through some of the major business processes in each application, or put you in touch with an application specialist who can take you through a more in-depth tour.

Feel free to give me a call at 918-409-4529, or send an e-mail to brent.martin@erpassociates.com.

Very nice seeing your site,

good info.

After installing the instance of PeopleSoft is there any way to know the licence number. I mean is it stored anywhere. I have to find out the same for my instance.

Regards,

Amit

The application license code is stored on the PSOPTIONS table, LICENSE_CODE field.

I'm not sure if PeopleSoft stores the PeopleTools license code.

PIA installer

Hi,

Where can i get an installer for the application server and the PIA?

Not sure what you're asking. You can download the CD's from edelivery.oracle.com. Run setup.exe to extract to a file server or the appropriate setup.sh script to install on UNIX. That gets the psadmin program extracted so you can configure the app servers. It will also create a setup directory, and under that will be a mpinternet directory which contains the setup program to install PIA.

Hope that helps.
