Common Library APIs

The Common Library APIs, such as determining whether foreign currency is enabled, manipulating the date format, retrieving link list information, or retrieving math numeric and date information are specific to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne functionality. You can use these APIs to set up data by calling APIs and modifying data after API calls. Some of the more commonly used categories of APIs include MATH_NUMERIC, JDEDATE, and LINKLIST. Other miscellaneous Common Library APIs are also available.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne provides the data types, MATH_NUMERIC and JDEDATE, for use when creating business functions. Because these data types might change, you must use the Common Library APIs provided by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to manipulate the variables of these data types.
