Mapping a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne User to a BI Publisher User

You need to map each JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user to a BI Publisher user for all of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne users who need to create and edit reports. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne users who only run public reports, you can use the soft coding parameter <proxy user> and <proxy password> to connect to BI Publisher, and you do not need to map those JD Edwards EnterpriseOne users.

Note: If you are using a proxy user, then the password is not required in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user profile.

This section discusses how to enter the BI Publisher user ID and password in the user's profile in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne so that the system can use the BI Publisher user ID and password to connect to BI Publisher servers on behalf of the EnterpriseOne user.

To map a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user to a BI Publisher user:

1. Select My System Options from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Personalization menu.

2. Select User Profile Revisions.

3. From the Form exits, select BI Publisher Pswd.

4. Enter the information from your BI Publisher account in the BI Publisher User ID and BI Publisher Password fields.

5. Log out of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and log back in so that the settings will take effect.

6. Whenever you change your user ID and password on the BI Publisher server, you will need to change it here as well.
