Types of Tables to Use

You can use these table types in table conversions:

Table Type

Description

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables

Tables that exist in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne database and can be accessed from Object Management Workbench. You can design and modify them using Table Design Aid. At design time, only the specifications are needed to reference the table. At runtime, the table must be generated. An instance of the table must occur in a particular database.

Foreign tables

Tables that do not have a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne definition but reside in a database that is supported by JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. You must set up a data source and environment in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to point to the location of foreign tables.
