JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Integration Architecture

EnterpriseOne has a configurable authentication mechanism that allows it to authenticate a user against:

  • Native tables (through a security kernel)

  • Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

  • Custom plug-ins, including the ability to read HTTP headers

EnterpriseOne single sign-on through OAM involves:

  • Protection through a WebGate, which is a plug-in that intercepts web resource (HTTP) requests and forwards them to the Access Server for authentication and authorization.

  • Populating a header variable with an attribute value that is stored in the LDAP directory used by OAM.

  • Configuring EnterpriseOne to invoke the OAM authentication process, overriding the default authentication mechanism.
