Understanding Business Services

Business services are JD Edwards EnterpriseOne business function objects that are used for interoperability between JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and other applications or systems. Business services are written in the Java programming language and provide business service operations that access the business logic in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne for many supported business transactions, such as journal entries, exchange rates, accounts payable vouchers, inventory look-ups, pricing, sales orders, and so on. You use Oracle's JDeveloper tool and the Java programming language to create a business service. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne web services framework provides a set of foundation packages that helps you create a business service. Each foundation package contains a set of interfaces and related classes. All business service classes extend from ServiceBusinessFunction.
