XML List

XML List is XML-based interoperability that runs as a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne kernel process. XML List provides List/GetNext functionality that enables you to collect a list of records from JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. XML List is built on the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne table conversion (TC) engine. XML List takes an XML document as a request and returns an XML document with the requested data. A list can represent data in a table, a business view, or data from a table conversion. Using data from a table conversion enables you to use multiple tables. By sending an XML document, you can retrieve metadata for a list, create a list, retrieve a chunk of data from a list, or delete a list. You can send the request through JDENet or third-party software to perform any of these operations:

• CreateList

• GetTemplate

• GetGroup

• DeleteList

XML List provides both trivial and non-trivial List/GetNext APIs. A trivial List/GetNext API performs simple gets such as selecting data from a single table. A non-trivial API uses additional functionality such as event rules. Each non-trivial List/GetNextBPAPI must have a table conversion designed for it. The data selection and data sequencing can be defined in an XML request at runtime.

XML List provides a list-retrieval engine that enables you to create an XML data file in the system repository and then retrieve the data in small chunks.
