Leverage Your JD Edwards Investment

By using the ShowCase InterLink capabilities of the ShowCase Suite, your company can draw upon the information contained in your JD Edwards World™ or EnterpriseOne™ solution quickly and efficiently, understand it more easily, and be assured of the continued security and high performance of the combined solution.

ShowCase InterLink saves your IT staff time while providing business users with more intuitive access to information they need. It integrates with JD Edwards enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions in four main areas:

• Security administration. ShowCase Warehouse Manager limits access to specific applications, both for individual users and groups of users. This saves your IT staff from having to set up and manage duplicate security systems.
• Data dictionary. ShowCase Query applies the World or EnterpriseOne data dictionary attributes associated with numeric decimal places, dates, column headings, and descriptions. As a result, users see informative column names rather than cryptic technical ones, when running queries. The Warehouse Builder component of the ShowCase Suite also recognizes data dictionary attributes, for easier data extraction when building a data mart.
• User-defined codes. The user-defined code (UDC) descriptions created in your JD Edwards solution are presented to users of ShowCase Query, Report Writer, and Enterprise Reporting as column displays. This simplifies report creation and enables users to employ UDCs just as they would any other column heading. ShowCase InterLink also provides access to UDC descriptions when ShowCase Warehouse Builder is being used to build a data mart.
• Library list environments. ShowCase InterLink retrieves library list environments that have been set up in your JD Edwards solution. If your organization maintains both a development and a production environment, you can perform full verification and testing of your JD Edwards environment in the development phase, and then move queries and reports into production without having to redefine them.

Supporting Security and Flexibility

With ShowCase InterLink, users or groups of users see only the information that your JD Edwards solution specifies. You can define additional security controls to further restrict ShowCase Suite users’ access to JD Edwards data, down to the row and column level.

Both World and EnterpriseOne enable you to re-configure systems and applications as business conditions or organizational structures change. ShowCase InterLink fully supports this flexibility.
