Embedded BI Publisher Reporting

Embedded BI Publisher reporting is driven by a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne batch application. Use embedded BI Publisher reporting under these circumstances:

• An event in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne initiates the requirement for the report.

  For example, the creation of a new sales order could automatically launch the Pick Slip process. The Pick Slip process would be configured to produce a BI Publisher document that is shipped with the order. The document would be produced with no user interaction.

• The report needs to update, insert, or delete JD Edwards EnterpriseOne data.

  Examples of report processes that update JD Edwards EnterpriseOne data are: updating the product shipped date, advancing the sales order status, and updating the statement print date.

• The report needs to perform JD Edwards EnterpriseOne business logic.

  Examples of business logic include: determining the correct pricing for a product, computing an employee's salary or benefits, and calculating commissions for sales staff.
