Understanding Guaranteed Events

Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne event functionality provides an infrastructure that can capture JD Edwards EnterpriseOne transactions in various ways and provide real-time notification to third-party software, end users, and other Oracle systems, such as Customer Relationship Management (CRM).

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne notifications are called events. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne event system implements a publish and subscribe model. Events are delivered to subscribers in XML documents that contain detailed information about the event. For example, when a sales order is entered into the system, the sales order information can be automatically sent to a CRM or supply chain management (SCM) application for further processing. If your system is IBM, you can use the WebSphere MQ messaging system to receive events. If your system is Microsoft, you can use the MSMQ messaging system to receive events. WebSphere MQ and MSMQ provide a point-to-point interface with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne supports these three kinds of events:

Event Category	Purpose	Generation Mechanism	Response Capability

XAPI Event	Provides requested notification to third-party software, end-users, and other Oracle systems when certain transactions occur and provides a response.	System calls	Yes
Z Event	Provides requested notification to third-party software, end-users, and other Oracle systems when certain transactions occur.	Interface tables and system calls	No
