Job Logs

You can view logs that detail the steps taken while the job processed. From the Submitted Job Search form, you can access the jde.log and the jdedebug.log for the report. These logs are helpful if you need to troubleshoot a report that resulted in error. These logs exist on the machine where the job ran.

The jde.log is a general-purpose log used to track error messages generated by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne processing. The jde.log tracks any fault that might occur within the software, including whether the sign on is successful. When you are looking for startup errors, you should read the jde.log from the top down. For other errors, you should read from the bottom up.

The jdedebug.log contains API calls, BSFN logs, and SQL statements, as well as other messages. You can use this log to determine at what time normal execution stopped. The system does not use thejdedebug.log to track errors; instead, it uses this log to track the timing of processes.
