12 Configuring JD Edwards EnterpriseOne OMW Functions

This chapter contains the following topics:

12.1 Understanding JD Edwards EnterpriseOne OMW Functions

To configure JD Edwards EnterpriseOne OMW functions, you can disable the Software Action Request (SAR) system. This action is necessary if your company does not use SARs. You can also control logging detail and disable or limit development when logging fails. Finally, you can set up project constants to track the course of project development.

12.2 Disabling SAR Integration

This chapter provides an overview of SAR integration and discusses how to:

  • Disable SAR system integration.

  • Control logging detail.

  • Control development in the event of a logging failure.

12.2.1 Understanding SAR Integration

Most companies do not have the SAR (Software Action Request) system. You can verify that SAR integration is disabled by checking the settings indicator to the right of the SAR System Integration button on the Object Management Setup Form.

If you do not have the SAR system installed and the SAR System Integration settings indicator shows that SAR integration is enabled, you must disable SAR integration.
