What It Is
Pages are the visual screens users interact with in PeopleSoft: the panel definitions from PSPNLDEFN and the per-control bindings from PSPNLFIELD. psLens shows the full control list (every field, label, group box, and subpage on the page), the underlying records each control reads from, and the rest of the metadata graph hanging off the page: which components include it, which PeopleCode is attached, which projects contain it.
Search Page
URL: /pages?db={database}
Page search results for USER_%
Wildcard % search supported. Each result card shows the page type (Standard Page, Subpage, Secondary Page, or Search Record) so you can spot reusable subpages versus standalone screens at a glance. The Advanced Filters panel lets you exclude subpages or limit to standard pages only.
Detail Page
URL: /pages/{PAGENAME}?db={database}
Page detail for USERPROFILEPAGE — default view
The main pane shows Page Properties (type, size, style, audit metadata) and the full Page Fields/Controls table with each control’s record/field binding, label, occurs level, and field type. The sidebar has 6 related-data toggles.
All panels expanded on a Secondary Page
Related Data Panels
Page Fields/Controls
Every control on the page with its field, record, and label
The control inventory: every field control on the page with its PSPNLFIELD row attributes. Each record/field reference deep-links into the matching psLens detail page.
Records Used on Page
Distinct records referenced by any control on the page
The de-duplicated list of records this page reads from. Clicking a record opens its detail page so you can confirm the schema, sample data, or check what else uses it.
Subpages Included
Subpages embedded inside this page
Lists every subpage embedded inside this page. Useful when a control’s data seems to come from somewhere “magic” (it’s almost always a subpage doing the work).
Components Using Page
Components whose item list includes this page
Lists the components that include this page. Answers “which transactions show this screen to a user?”
PeopleCode
Page-level PeopleCode (Activate event) attached to this page
Page Activate PeopleCode. The only event type that lives directly on a page object.
Included in Projects
App Designer projects that include this page
App Designer projects containing this page as a project item.
What This Consolidates
Without psLens, building this view from App Designer requires:
- Open the page in App Designer to see properties and controls
- For each control, double-click to see its record/field binding
- Run a separate query against
PSPNLGROUPto find containing components - Open each component to confirm the page’s position in the navigation
- Check Activate PeopleCode tab in the page editor for code
- Walk every owning project for migration history
psLens collapses that into one view with everything one click away.
