J.D. Edwards offers a broad suite of business systems (financial, distribution, manufacturing, human resource management, and so on) called the Common Foundation. J.D Edwards refers to each group of software products as a system. Each system contains forms, reports, data files, and programs that are designed for a specific business need. For more information on integrating J.D. Edwards systems for your business needs, see the J.D. Edwards Common Foundation Guide.
All J.D. Edwards World is available in two different presentations:
The presentation you see depends on which one your company has chosen to install. The system processes all the applications in the same way, regardless of the presentation. WorldVision presents all the forms in a graphical format for a Windows environment on a workstation. It reads the 5250 data stream from AS/400 and formats the information for the workstation, while retaining the functions of the applications, data integrity, and security on the AS/400 server.
J.D. Edwards World supports DB2/400.
