Understanding Outbound Interoperability for Product Data Management

You might send transactions that you create or change in Product Data Management to another system. For example, if the organization uses hand-held scanning devices, you can use interoperability transactions to update the database that is used by the scanning devices.

To process outbound interoperability in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Product Data Management:

1. Specify a transaction type in the processing options of the originating programs listed in the table that follows these steps.

2. Enter or change a transaction using any of the originating programs.

   The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Product Data Management system calls a business function that writes records to the corresponding transaction table listed in the table that follows these steps. For example, when you run the Work Center Revision program (P3006) with the interoperability processing option turned on, the system places a copy of updated work center data in the Work Center Transaction File table (F30006Z1).

   The same business function calls a special subsystem API that sends a message to the subsystem kernel running on the server. The subsystem kernel adds a record to the Subsystem Job Master table (F986113).

3. Create a custom UBE or function to process the data from the transaction tables in such a way that it can be used by the external system.

4. Use the Data Export Controls program (P0047) to specify the custom UBE or function for the transaction type you specified in the processing options of the originating program.

   The system stores this information in the Data Export Control table (F0047).

5. Run the Interoperability Generic Outbound Subsystem UBE program (R00460).

   The Interoperability Generic Outbound Subsystem UBE program fetches the F986113 record and retrieves the name and version of the custom UBE from the F0047 table. The Interoperability Generic Outbound Subsystem UBE program passes information about the order to the custom UBE. The custom UBE then retrieves the records from the transaction tables and processes that information.

You can send transactions to an external system from these programs in Product Data Management:

• Work Center Revision (P3006)

• Work Day Calendar (P00071)

• Enter/Change Bill (P3002)

• Work With Routing Master (P3003)

Originating Program	Transaction Type	Transaction Table
Work Center Revision (P3006)	JDEWC	Work Center Transaction File (F30006Z1)
Workday Calendar (P00071)	JDEWDC	Work Day Calendar Transaction File (F0007Z1)
Enter/Change Bill (P3002)	JDEBOM	Bill of Material Transaction File (F3002Z1)
Work With Routing Master (P3003)	JDEROU	Routing Transactions File (F3003Z1)
