Reviewing Input and Response Interfaces

To review information about the classes and fields that are used by these web service operations, you can review the input and response interface tables. Input and response interface tables list the classes and fields used by each operation, the key fields, the data types of each fields, and which fields or classes are required for each action.

See Accessing Additional Information about Business Services.

See Appendix A: Input and Response Interfaces.

Prerequisites

Before you can use any of the accounts payable web service operations, you must install and configure the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system.

See Setting Up the Accounts Payable System.

getVoucher

This section provides an overview of the getVoucher web service operation and lists prerequisites.

Understanding the getVoucher Web Service Operation

The getVoucher web service operation is a database query operation that enables consumers to retrieve accounts payable vouchers from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system.

The operation retrieves records based on the selection criteria that is passed in. If no selection criteria is passed in, the operation attempts to retrieve all records from the EnterpriseOne database, using the business service property to limit the number of records returned. If the operation encounters errors, processing stops and the errors are returned to the consumer.

Setup Considerations

Before you use this operation, you can set business service properties to specify how the system retrieves data. This table includes information about the business service properties that the getVoucher operation uses:

Note. It is recommended that this business service property is configured and used. Also, it is strongly recommended that the consumer pass in selection criteria when performing a query. If these two recommendations are not followed, the operation attempts to fetch all the records from the database, which can significantly impact performance.

Also be aware that this operation performs multiple data retrievals from the EnterpriseOne database. Initially, records are selected from the Accounts Payable Ledger table (F0411) based on the selection criteria that is passed in by the consumer. After the operation retrieves records from the F0411, processing continues, and additional records are retrieved from the Account Ledger table (F0911), based on the data in the F0411 records. This business service property limits the number of records initially retrieved from the F0411. Therefore, the total number of records that are returned to the consumer might be greater than the value that you enter in this property.

Implementation Details

This table includes information that can help determine whether the getVoucher operation is functioning correctly:

processVoucher

This section provides an overview of the processVoucher web service operation and lists prerequisites.

Understanding the processVoucher Web Service Operation

The processVoucher web service operation is an inbound transaction operation that enables consumers to add, delete or void vouchers in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system.

If the operation completes successfully, the consumer receives a success message. If the operation encounters errors, processing stops and the errors are returned to the consumer.

Setup Considerations

Before you use this operation, you can set business service properties to specify how the system processes vouchers. This table includes information about the business service properties that the processVoucher operation uses:

Note. The published value object includes a field in the general ledger array that enables the user to enter a version of the P0900049 program for the F0911FSEditLine function. Though the user can enter a different version for each general ledger record, the operation uses only the first version. The operation first tries to retrieve the processing version from the value object. If no value is entered in the value object, the operation tries to retrieve a version from the business service properties. If no version is found, the operation uses version ZJDE0001.

The header class of the published value object also enables the user to specify a version of theP0400047 program, which is used for the F0411FSBeginDoc and F0411FSEditLine functions. Again, the operation first tries to retrieve the version from the value object. If no version is found, the operation then tries to retrieve a version from the business service properties. If no value is found, the operation uses version ZJDE0001.
