Supported J.D. Edwards Interfaces

J.D. Edwards OneWorld XE Adapter is a software application allowing organizations to maintain a single source for customer information. Using the J.D. Edwards OneWorld XE adapter, an organization can facilitate the sales and marketing forces by combining all customer information into one source. This source can be accessed using multiple channels. A field sales person can consult the Web, the company call center, or any number of networks to access information needed for a customer.

This chapter discusses the following topics:
