2.1 About the World Writer Menu
The World Writer menu organizes versions by system or application. Each menu selection represents a group or list of versions.
JD Edwards World sends you predefined reports, or "DEMO" versions, that you can preview before creating your own reports. In some cases, you can copy and modify an existing version to suit your needs.
To determine what group in which to create a version, think about the data that your version will contain. If you are creating a report with employees' information, you may want to place it under the Payroll or Human Resources group. Reports dealing with the financial system would be created in the General Ledger or Financial Planning group. Your organization may have standards regarding the placement of versions. You can also create custom groups with your own naming conventions.
To begin the process of creating a version, take the menu selection where you want your version to reside. Regardless of which selection you take, you will be presented with the Versions List. The Versions List is the starting point in designing and maintaining queries.
