Overview

The Tables node lists and describes JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables that are available in Configuration Assistant. You typically use Configuration Assistant with configuration tables and not transactional tables. Oracle provides a way to identify just the configuration tables using the Search and All Tables functions.

Tip: In addition to the tables that Configuration Assistant automatically identifies as transactional, you can manually select D tables if you need them.
Caution: Because JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Release 8.98 uses the XML format, if the target table has new columns, the database default value for the new column is used for each record added. It is recommended that configurations containing such tables should not be done without full knowledge of the consequences and thoughtful testing.

You can include all or a subset of these tables in your configuration. Because Configuration Assistant retrieves the tables from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne database, it provides a set of known and assigned attributes assigned to these tables, which are helpful in determining their contents and suitability for inclusion in your configuration:

  • Table number (as assigned by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne)

  • Number of rows in the table

  • Load action (as defined with Configuration Assistant; the action that will be performed in the target environment for this configuration)

  • Data class

  • Copy data

  • Description

  • Object use

  • System code

  • Reporting code

  • Data source
