To import a PeopleSoft source definition, create an ODBC data source for each PeopleSoft system you want to access. The PowerCenter Designer uses ODBC to connect to the PeopleSoft metadata tables to import PeopleSoft metadata.
When creating an ODBC data source, configure the data source to connect to the underlying database for the PeopleSoft system. For example, if the PeopleSoft system resides on an Oracle database, configure an ODBC data source to connect to the Oracle database.
