Find Method
Used to return a list of keys that satisfy the supplied partial search keys. Note that for a component interface that has only one instance, that is, there is no key, the Find() function is not generated. See also Get Method.
Syntax
Find (partialKey, keyList)
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
partialKey |
A structure where the individual keys are optional. |
keyList |
A list of keys that matches the partialKey. It is an output parameter.The keys correspond to the set of Find Keys as defined for the particular component interface. |
Remarks
When you specify the partial keys, it is possible to use the same wildcard search available from the PeopleSoft internal Find() function. For example, the partial ACCOUNT key of "11" returns all ACCOUNT keys that start with "11", whereas "%40" returns all ACCOUNT keys that contain "40" anywhere within the key. A partial key "_4_4" returns all ACCOUNT keys with the character "4" in the 2nd and 4th positions.
Note: With the current implementation of the PeopleSoft Server, if more than 300 items match the search criteria, the call fails. This is a restriction of the PeopleSoft server. The Microsoft BizTalk Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise Find() method is provided if the PeopleSoft Find function in the component interface is enabled and Get keys are available.
