production and development) and enables objects to be easily moved from one

Open Data Access (ODA)
An interoperability model that enables you to use SQL statements to extract JD
Edwards EnterpriseOne data for summarization and report generation.
Output Stream Access (OSA)
An interoperability model that enables you to set up an interface for JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne to pass data to another software package, such as Microsoft Excel, for
processing.
package
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne objects are installed to workstations in packages from the
deployment server. A package can be compared to a bill of material or kit that
indicates the necessary objects for that workstation and where on the deployment
server the installation program can find them. It is point-in-time snapshot of the
central objects on the deployment server.
package build
A software application that facilitates the deployment of software changes and new
applications to existing users. Additionally, in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, a package
build can be a compiled version of the software. When you upgrade your version of
the ERP software, for example, you are said to take a package build.
Consider the following context: "Also, do not transfer business functions into the
production path code until you are ready to deploy, because a global build of business
functions done during a package build will automatically include the new functions."
The process of creating a package build is often referred to, as it is in this example,
simply as "a package build."
package location
The directory structure location for the package and its set of replicated objects. This is
usually \\deployment server\release\path_code\package\package name. The
subdirectories under this path are where the replicated objects for the package are
placed. This is also referred to as where the package is built or stored.
Package Workbench
An application that, during the Installation Workbench process, transfers the package
information tables from the Planner data source to the system-release number data
source. It also updates the Package Plan detail record to reflect completion.
Pathcode Directory
The specific portion of the file system on the EnterpriseOne development client where
EnterpriseOne development artifacts are stored.
patterns
General repeatable solutions to a commonly occurring problem in software design. For
business service development, the focus is on the object relationships and interactions.
