6 Enabling Mobile Client Functionality

This chapter contains the following topics:

6.1 Understanding Distributed Next Numbers for Mobile Clients

Any of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne mobile applications that assign unique numbers using the number facilities (namely the X0010 and X00022 business functions) must have their parameters registered as distributed next numbers. These parameter sets are identified during application development. For applications that call X0010, these parameters include a system code, next numbering index, company, document type, century, and fiscal year. For applications that call X00022, the parameter is an object name.

6.2 Setting Up Distributed Next Numbers for Mobile Clients

This section discusses how to:

  • Activate mobile client functionality.

  • Define the starting next number.

  • Enable distributed next numbers.

  • Set up distributed next numbers by system code.

  • Map the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user ID to the Distributed Next Numbers application (P950411).

  • Set up distributed next numbers by application.

  • Schedule updates to distributed next numbers applications.
