Object Management WorkBench

Object Management Workbench (OMW)

•    OMW is a change management System consisting of models, methods, techniques, and other tools for One World development.
•  It acts as an interface between user and JDE environment.

     The OMW systems are:

1.       GUI System: Unifies all development in an intuitive interface.
2.       Configuration System:  Controls all development from a central location.
3.        Logging System: Tracks all program changes automatically.

  

        Graphical User Interface system:

1.  Understanding the OMW
2.   Working with OMW
3.   Working with Project
4.   Working with Object
5.   Working with Token
6.   Working with Use
7.   Working with Attachments

Understanding of OMW: To understand OMW we must be familiar with the following:

• OMW Concepts
• OMW Interface
• OL and NON OL objects

OMW Concepts: It includes

Ø Project: It is a collection of objects and users.

Ø Default Project: It is a personal project used for Research and development.

Ø User Role: It defines the user function within the project.

Ø Allowed Actions: These are the rules that defines the actions that may be performed by a user assigned to a user role.

Ø Tokens: These are used for minimising one user overwriting another user changes on the project.

Environments:

The environments we use in OMW are:

·        Development (DV)(21)

·        Testing  (PY)(26)

·        Production(PD)(38)

·        Pristine (PS)

Distributed Computing Environment(DCE)

DCE:

It means Distributed Computing Environment.All modern ERP packages use DCE as a underline system to support ERP operations.

Data storage is not generally done on one system but it was shared across various systems on the network

COMPONENTS OF DCE:  

          1.Client: It provides the user interface for any one using DCE. A client generates several requests to various servers based on user requirement.

• Fat Client:  It has more hard disk space, high processing power and memory.It works as a workstation. 
• Thin Client: It executes applications from a database on a server. Compared to fat client it's cost is less.
• Zero Client: It  can only display information and can take the input.

       2. Server: It is used for exchanging data from client to system administrator.

       3.  Network: A set of applications executed in different systems rather than a single computer and all these different systems are connected together called network.
       4.  Security: A security system prevents computing and unauthorized employees from accessing the confidential information.

Technical Modules

Technical Modules: These are classified as follows

1.Fundamentals: 

• Object Management Workbench(OMW)
• Data Dictionary(DD)
• Table Design Aid(TDA)
• Business View(BV)
• Data Structures(DS)

2.Application Design: 

• Interactive application: Forms

Forms:It is an interface between user and database.

• Batch application:  'Reports' and 'Table Conversion'.

Reports: It prints the data in a useful format.

Table conversion: It is used for converting the data.

3.Event Rules: 

• Business Function Event Rules: It is an encapsulated,reusable business logic created through event rules rather than C-programming.
• Embedded Event Rules: It is specific to a particular table interactive or batch applications, these are not reusable.

4.Business Functions:

• NER: It is predefined in JDE scripting Language.
• C: It is used with C codes.

5.Caching:  Storage of data while creation of any application.

6.Additional Features:

• Processing Option
• Transaction Processing Option
• Multiple currency
• Record Locking
• Menu Design

7.Messaging:

• Error
• Interactive
• Batch

8.Debugging: It is used to provide the state of program at any point of execution.

• Event Rule Debugging: It is used to debug forms,Reports and Table Conversions.
• Visual C++ Debugging: It is used for debugging C business functions.
• M and D Debugger: At the run time of C business function we use M&D Debugger.

9.web applications: It is developed using java code.

10.Performance: By trouble shooting we can increase the performance.
