Events

Events are notifications to third-party applications or end-users that a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne business transaction has occurred. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne supports three kinds of events: Z events, real-time events, and XAPI events. Event data is represented as an XML document.

Z events use interface tables and a batch process to retrieve transaction information and use a Z event generator and the data export subsystem to manage the flow of the outbound data.

Real-time events can be generated from a server or a client. System calls (from a server) and client business function calls (from a client) retrieve transaction information. The transaction information is distributed to subscribers.

XAPI events are real-time events that require a response. A XAPI event is created in the same manner as a real-time event, with additional data structure information for invoking a business function when the response XML document is received.

You can use JMS Queue or JMS Topic to send Event notifications as web services.
