Data Dictionary Items

Data dictionary items include check boxes, radio buttons, text fields, grid items, and help text that appear throughout Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software. The data dictionary stores the descriptions for these items. Each data dictionary item contains at least one of the these components:

  • Alias: an alpha code given to a data dictionary item.

  • Alpha description: the title that appears in the help text in the software when you press F1.

  • Row description: the text that describes form controls.

  • Column description: the text that describes grid columns.

  • Glossary: the full description text in paragraph form when you press F1.
