1.2.1 Supported Devices and Minimum Technical Requirements

Oracle supports the use of all JD Edwards EnterpriseOne mobile enterprise applications on several smartphone and tablet devices. For the latest list of supported devices, along with the most current MTR information, see this My Oracle Support document (sign on required):

1.2.2 Languages in Mobile Applications

By default, all Oracle mobile applications that are built with ADF technology are deployed using English as the language. When a user launches a mobile application and signs in, the login service retrieves the user's language preference from their JD Edwards EnterpriseOne user profile. Language preference codes are stored in UDC table 01/LP.

If a translated version of the application exists for that language, the mobile device displays the application using the user's preferred language. If no translated version exists for the specified language, the mobile device displays the application in English.

Currently, translated versions for all EnterpriseOne mobile applications exist for these languages:

1.2.2.1 Language Support for Business Unit and Branch Plant Searches

Several Mobile Enterprise Applications use the Business Unit Search and Branch/Plant Search screens. The search behavior of these screens is dependent upon the language preferences of the logged-on user.

These screens search for data using the same method as the Business Unit Master Search program (P0006S) in the base EnterpriseOne system. If the language preference in the user's profile is set to blank, the mobile application uses the search description entered by the mobile user to search over the Business Unit Master table (F0006). If the language preference is populated, the mobile application uses the search description entered by the mobile user to search over the Business Unit Alternative Description Master table (F0006D).

1.3 Understanding Mobile Enterprise Application User Interfaces

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne mobile enterprise applications are developed using standards-based technology. This means that all of the applications share standard user interface elements and constructs. These elements behave in the same way through all of the EnterpriseOne mobile enterprise applications. This section discusses each of these user-interface elements in detail.

Oracle recommends that users review this section before using the applications.

Mobile Application Object or Feature Description and Usage
About Button Tap this button to view the About This Application information associated with the applications. This information includes details such as the application name and version, the AIS server location, the application ID, and user login information. You access this button by tapping the Menu button.

Action buttons typically appear in either the top navigation bar or the bottom bar of the application.

This button illustrates an example of an Apply action button.

The other is a Clear action button, shown below, that clears the values from all fields on the screen.

Some screens include a refresh button, as shown here:

Note that in some cases, this button is used as a Find button. This typically occurs on the home screen of an application, where a user enters a value in the main header search field, and taps this button to find records that meet the search criteria.
