Have Multiple PeopleSoft Environments Opens In Internet Explorer

2011-07-27 / PeopleSoft / 1 Comments

Problem:

We had some users who needed to have a QA and PROD PeopleSoft environment open at the same time. When they would launch the second window it would log them off of the original peoplesoft environment.

Solution:

If you launch a “new session” in IE 8 it saves the cookies in the different location. This enables you to sign on to as many new peoplesoft sessions as you would like without losing your existing one.

Crystal Reports Print Engine error text: Error in File e:\ptools849\psofthcm\crw\eng\pbc_0004.rpt:
