Installing Business Function ESUs

A number of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne business functions require modification to be successfully processed on both a 32-bit system and a 64-bit system. To obtain the required updates to these functions, perform these actions:

  • Get code current by taking all the currently available ESUs.
  • Apply ESUs identified with a new Change Assistant query.
Note:

Applications Update UN3 includes all the original updates that were required for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to run 64-bit.
