Utilities

Utilities are generic, reusable business services that perform standard operations that are used by many business services.

Utilities enable multiple business services to complete the same process in a uniform manner. For example, both the ProcessPurchaseOrder and ProcessCustomer business services retrieve entity information from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system. Rather than coding the retrieval of entity information separately in both of the business services, each business service uses the Entity Processor utility to retrieve the entity information. By using the Entity Processor utility, the complexity and the amount of code associated with each of the business services is reduced.

Business services use these utilities:

• Entity Processor (J0100010)

• GL Account Processor (J0900010)

• Inventory Item ID Processor (J4100010)

• Net Change Processor (J0000020)

• Processing Version Processor (J0000010)

• User Defined Code Utility (J0000050)
