Using a JD Edwards OneWorld System

The JD Edwards OneWorld system is accessible from a BizTalk Server system by using the JD Edwards OneWorld adapter. This adapter is one of a group of eight line-of-business (LOB) adapters shipped by Microsoft for use with BizTalk Server.

The JD Edwards OneWorld lab work is divided into two parts. This first lab (Lab 1) allows you to use the JD Edwards OneWorld system without needing BizTalk Server or any Microsoft products. You will use the JD Edwards OneWorld Client tool to connect to a JD Edwards OneWorld database and locate a specific record based upon address.

In the second lab (Lab 2), you will create a BizTalk project and orchestration. After you create the application, you will deploy it and use it to connect to a JD Edwards OneWorld system by using the JD Edwards OneWorld adapter. The goal is to access data through the BizTalk application by using the adapter.

Prerequisites

To perform the procedures for this lab, you need to install the JD Edwards OneWorld client software and its latest update. To use any of the client software tools you will need a JD Edwards OneWorld database, network connectivity to that database, and a user account on that system. You do not need BizTalk Server to complete this lab.

Lab 1 - Using a JD Edwards OneWorld System
