Hi all,
I'm gearing up for my first JD Edwards application (long time MS Visual Studio developer, new to JDE) and need some guidance. I'm finishing up the analysis and I will need a custom table to store data related to a receivable. In a nut shell, this will be ancillary data related to past due receivables. The application will be implemented in Xe (Xe Go Live slated for July 2001, no deadline yet on this app)
I have a couple of questions related to creating a custom table:
1) Is it better to create new data dictionary items, marked at system code 55-59, rather than use existing ones for the table layout?
2) I will need to have some free form text associated with the table. I understand that this can be handled through a media object, but I'd rather have something like a memo field associated with the record. As I understand, reporting on media objects can have some problems. Any comments?
Thanks,
