4 Using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accessibility with the Screen Reader Software

This chapter contains the following topics:

4.1 JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Web Client Accessibility Compliance

A single HTML server port is used for both standard and visually impaired accessibility, as opposed to a separate HTML server set up in LOW interactivity for visually impaired users. When the Accessibility mode is set to Yes in the User Profile Revisions application (P0092), the web client is rendered in LOW interactivity, irrespective of the jas.ini setting. All the extra tags with relevant information are rendered so that they can be read by the screen reader software.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne components that are accessible include:

  • JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application accessibility.

  • EnterpriseOne Menu accessibility.

  • Data Browser accessibility.

Grid Control

The screen reader software reads the associated details when you navigate through the grid in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application.

The grid control is accessible as a table.

The QBE row and the column header row constitute one table, with the QBE row being the first row and the column header row being the second row. When you navigate to the table for the QBE row, the screen reader software reads the name for the grid (same as the form title) and then QBE Row. For example, for the QBE row table in the Work with Addresses Grid in the P01012 application, the screen reader software reads it as "Work with Addresses. QBE Row."

Each data row is rendered as a separate table, with the Column Header row being the first row and the actual data row being the second row. When you navigate to the table for the data row, the screen reader software reads the name for the Grid (same as the Form Title) and then the specific Row Number. For example, for the third data row table in the Work with Addresses Grid in the P01012 application, the screen reader software reads it as "Work with Addresses Grid. Row 3."

This table lists the details read by the screen reader software when you navigate through the grid:

Navigation Path Details given by the screen reader software
QBE edit field in a QBE row Reads the following details:

Paper clip image Reads Attachment or No Attachment, when you navigate to a paper clip image for Attachment in the Click to search for the Attachments cell.
Next image Reads as Next and then the name for the grid (same as the Form Title) as a suffix. Hence, if there is more than one grid on the form, you can clearly identify the grid to which the Next image belongs. For example, the Next image on the Work with Addresses grid, the screen reader software reads as Next: Work with Addresses.
Previous image Reads as Previous and then reads the name of the grid as a suffix.
