Edwards World JDBC driver for use with BI Publisher is Now Available -- Increase your reporting capabilities using World data
Oracle announces the delivery of a major new enhancement, a JDBC driver
specifically for JD Edwards World. The driver is a software component that allows Java applications such as BI Publisher to access the JD Edwards World database.
Oracle previously announced the availability of BI Publisher to simplify and greatly improve the formatting
and distribution of reports. All licensed JD Edwards World customers who are current on maintenance have been granted
restricted use licenses to Oracle BI Publisher at no additional cost. The JD Edwards World JDBC driver adds versatility
to the existing interface to BI Publisher for customers on A9.1 and A9.2. It also makes it possible for customers on
A7.3 and A8.1 to solve their reporting needs with BI Publisher. Because the JDBC driver has been released as a feature
of World and is part of maintenance, JD Edwards customers can experience considerable cost-savings by eliminating purchased
solutions for reporting.
About BI Publisher:
BI Publisher is a web-based application, installed on a Windows or Unix (Linux) server. It allows
the creation and delivery of all types of highly formatted documents. No proprietary design studio is required; end
users design reports using software they are probably already familiar with, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, or Adobe Acrobat.
The resulting template is combined with data, and the report can be viewed online or delivered to a printer, email, fax, FTP,
or WebDAV. Report headings and static text can be translated into 185 languages, and do not require purchase of
language-specific printers. BI Publisher has the capability of combining data from many data sources for consolidated
reporting.
About the JD Edwards World JDBC Driver:
The driver allows a Java application such as BI Publisher to retrieve data from the World database.
Users create SQL statements in BI Publisher to provide data for their reports. Several properties can be set to customize
how the World tables and SQL statements appear. The driver converts Julian dates, decimal positions and performs
Presumptive Joins in the same manner as World Writer. It enforces standard business decisions from JD Edwards World;
for security purposes, users of the JDBC driver must be valid users in the JD Edwards World system.
Information
and additional resources can be found on My Oracle Support (Metalink). Search for document ID 789078.1.
