Using Shortcuts

With the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne messaging system, you can send messages that contain a shortcut to a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application. When you send a shortcut, you can preface it with a message for the recipient to review and approve. For example, you might want your manager to approve a change that you made to a customer record. After sending a shortcut to your manager, he or she can view the record immediately by clicking the shortcut button. When you send a shortcut, the system sends the key for that particular record to the recipient. When the recipient clicks the shortcut button, the system opens the application and retrieves the record.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system uses workflow to automatically send messages with a shortcut to an application. These types of messages, called active messages, require that the recipient open the shortcut to verify information or approve a transaction.

Since JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software supports Windows and Web clients, the message can contain a shortcut for a Windows application or a Web application.
