PeopleSoft: Adding records to Query Tree

PeopleSoft:

Problem:
Just the other day, a business analyst was not able to view a particular record (PSSQLTEXTDEFN) in the "Query Manager" in PIA, while creating a new query.

Solution:
Implementing Query Security.

Open a Query tree definition:

1. Select PeopleTools, Security, Query Security, Query Access Manager.
   

2. On the Basic Search page select your search criteria.

   You can search by Tree Name, Tree Category, or Tree Description.

3. Click Search.

   After clicking Search, a list appears containing the definitions that meet your criteria.

4. Select an appropriate tree and add the record definition in the "Record Definition" node and save the changes.
5. Select PeopleTools, Security, Query Security, Query Access List Cache.
6. Click Run button and execute the process to Success. This would resolve the problem and you would be able to view the Record in Query Manager.

War and Men

I just saw "Band of Brothers". It's a wonderful re-enactment of World War II. The direction is excellent. It relives the horrors of the war and seeing it I wondered, How come we, human beings (and the only rational animal), forget what our greed leads us to do? How can mankind still fight wars after experiencing that monstrosity?

I guess it's just that we forget too soon or we are a step shorter of nature's perfection that is yet to happen?

Random Thoughts

This posts aren't really for anyone to read. If anyone reads, well it doesn't matter.

So the thought is what is the thing that I really crave for? I believe every man has something which would engross him to the extent that the rest of the world becomes immaterial. Take any case in history, literature and you would agree with me. But the sad part is most of the men are either ignorant about this or spend their entire lifetime searching for it. Maybe I fall into the second category, and that is my worst fear. Those who really find, either are terrific success or terrible failure. I would prefer to be either of that, than being a mediocre. Mediocrity is a disaster, a waste of life.

I was initially interested in software development. I guess opium/cocaine would have the same effect on me as software development. It's just wonderful to feel that, as the complexity increases, so does the effect, where the whole body and mind blend into one, and the only sole thing that would exist is the solution to the problem on hand and nothing else. But then life doesn't seem to take proper turns, as intended, after every run there is a phase when everything is at standstill. It's so obscene in effect.
That's the phase which I hate most than anything else living or dead. Sometimes I feel that I took a wrong decision in selecting the technology, Peoplesoft. I always have a break/vacation, which I desperately don't want.
