Vendor-Specific Outbound Functions

The purpose of the vendor-specific outbound function is to pass the key fields for a record in the outbound interface tables to a third-party system. With these keys, you can process information from the database record into your third-party system. The generic outbound subsystem batch process calls the function.

Each vendor-specific function is specific to the transaction being processed. You must decide how the function actually uses the database record information. Although the functions are written to your specifications, and most likely are written outside of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, these functions must use the required JD Edwards EnterpriseOne defined data structure:
