Orchestrator

This post starts a serie of posts describing how we could use Orchestrator to automatically create JD Edwards users (and security) using the Orchestrator.

We’ll start from an Excel spreadsheet stored in a Sharepoint portal and automatically:

1. read the Excel spreadsheet
2. create the users in our internal LDAP (we are using OID but it could work with all LDAP)
3. create the users, their address books and role relationships records in JD Edwards
4. send an email to each end user including the JD Edwards link and credentials
   

I designed this orchestration to manage the users in our training environment for our Citizen Developer Courses and it now saves me lots of time and effort to manage new users : I only enter the students information in the Excel file and they receive automatically an email with all the information they need (URL, credentials) just before we start the course !

The last Orchestrator 7.0.0 brings real enhancements for JD Edwards automation and integration.

I’ve been working a lot with this version in the past 3 weeks during our Citizen Developer/Orchestrator workshops sessions in Ireland and UK and I must say I really enjoy this latest version which is now ready to be used intensively in Production environments:

• Orchestrator Monitor: You can now monitor your orchestrations and notifications using the new Orchestrator Health and Exception Monitoring:

Oracle has delivered tremenduous enhancements to JD Edwards User Interface, automation and integration capabilities in the last few years.

Known as UDOs (User Defined Objects), they give you lots of personalizations enhancements without any coding, customization, development, package build …

We created a dedicated course to help our customers getting started with all those new features : called Citizen Developer Course it covers all 20 UDOS available today : from the List View Grid Format to Personal Forms, Orchestrator and Notifications.
