We have developed a forms-based Purchase Order Receipts App in MEP for JDE. We want the user to be able to attach the packing list, BOL paper work for the receipt to the order header. Looking for some directions on how I could do this in my forms app like users do it in JDE using file attachments for PDF’s JPEG’s Gifs etc.
Hi Jeff,
MEP has several interfaces to facilitate the use & manipulation of “media objects”.
There has been no overall standard solution developed around this thus far, as each client’s requirements & use cases have always been unique, so every implementation I am aware of has been completely customized.
I believe this would be the interface most appropriate to your query here – Load Media Objects to the Database
Which is essentially a ‘wrapper’ function to call this E1 endpoint – Upload File Attachment v2
There are several additional interfaces available in this area:
Signature Capture interface for JD Edwards
Media Object Long Text interface for JD Edwards
Media Object Text interface for JD Edwards
Customarily clients would reach out to their Customer Success Manager to arrange a consultation with one of our Solution Architects to provide more specific guidance around our ability to meet their unique needs.
These tend to be among the most difficult of our interfaces to implement, as a rather detailed understanding of how E1 handles media objects internally is required to be successful.
Best regards,
Cary
Thanks Cary,
I am able to use the dcLINKSignatureCapture API to create Purchase Order Header record in the F00165, but the JPG file does not exist. I can’t find anywhere in the documentation where the file JPG, or signature file needs to exist on the server before I call the API. Is there any documentation that explains this? If I can find this, I can use the Communications send file.
Thanks again
Jeff
