Parameter Name | Data Item | Data Type | Req/Opt | I/O/Both |
szMenuIdentification | MNI | char | NONE | NONE |
The menu name up to nine characters. PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne standards are:
o Menu numbers are preceded with a G prefix.
o The
two characters following the prefix are the system code.
o The next characters further identify the menu.
o The 4th character specifies a
specific skill level.
o The 5th character distinguishes two menus of the same system with the same skill level.
For example, the menu
identification G0911 specifies the following:
G
Prefix
09
System code
1
Display level/skill level
1
First menu
|
mnMenuSelection | SELN | MATH_NUMERIC | NONE | NONE |
A number that you use to determine the order of menu items and to select menu items. |
szJobToExecute | JTOE | char | NONE | NONE |
The specific job or program number to run. In the interest of consistency, all programs set up on a menu are executed through Control
Language (CL).
Therefore, you can executre only two types of jobs - menus and jobs. Programs are never executed directly from the menu as
they must be enclosed in CL. Job numbers always begin with a J followed by the job number. Menu numbers are always preceded with an
asterisk (*). For example:
o J01011 - Address Book Information
o *A01 - Address Book Menu Never access a program directly, such as
P01011 - Address Book Information. |
cSelectionBatchDesignatio | SBTD | char | NONE | NONE |
This code designates the method of execution, as follows:
0 Interactive or Video
1 Batch
2 Delayed (display a form to gather
information and submit to batch)
3 Interactive with return value containing fast path menu instruction If your menu selection is using the DREAM
Writer and it is a report:
o Enter a code of 1 if you are specifying a DREAM Writer version number.
o Enter a code of 0 if you are not specifying
a DREAM Writer version number. If version number is blank, the DREAM Writer Versions List is displayed. You can then submit a job to
batch from this list.
If your menu selection is displaying a form, then submitting to batch, enter a code of 2. This displays a submitted to batch
message.
If your menu selection is for an online program, enter a code of 0 because online displays cannot be submitted to batch. |
szHelpStartKey | HSKY | char | NONE | NONE |
The Help Start Key is used to cross-reference the menus to specific program help instructions. Typically, this key is simply the program
number. It is always preceded with a P as in Program - never a J as in Job. This is the starting key for displaying help instructions for this item. |
cOptionCode | OPCD | char | NONE | NONE |
This code specifies whether the user will be prompted for additional information prior to running the application. Available values are:
0
No processing options
1 Blind execution (no prompt)
2 Prompt for version
3 Prompt for values
|
szOptionKey | OPKY | char | NONE | NONE |
The Group identifies the name of the UBE that will be run for this menu selection.
|
szVersionconsolidated | VER | char | NONE | NONE |
Identifies a specific set of data selection and sequencing settings for the application. Versions may be named using any combination of
alpha and numeric characters. Versions that begin with 'XJDE' or 'ZJDE' are set up by J.D. Edwards. |
szRunTimeMessage | RMSG | char | NONE | NONE |
Any run time message can be defined in the Data Dictionary. These messages serve as precautions to prevent the accidental execution of
a job. Further,they can be used to draw correlations between one job and another. For example,a run time message might advise you of an
excessively long run time, a particularly bulky report, or a prerequisite step to executing a job (for example, you must build the data cross
reference file before you can do a Data Cross Reference Inquiry). An example of a run time message is "MENUMSG001",which has been
defined in the Data Dictionary.
A suggestion for setting up your own menu messages in the data dictionary:
Do not use the prefix "MENUMSG".
We cannot guarantee that J.D. Edwards won't duplicate a menu message. You might want to use the prefix "MENUCLT" where 'CLT'
represents client message. Then follow that with three digits to indicate the message number. |
cMenuSelectionHighlight | XHL | char | NONE | NONE |
Specifies whether the selection number or both the number and description will be highlighted when entering menu selections. The
selection number is normally set to high intensity when the selection is driven by processing options. The menu level field in user information
determines whether the menu selection is highlighted. The field values function as follows:
0 Normal intensity
1 Selection number high intensity
2 Selection number and description high intensity |
szMenutoExecute | MTOE | char | NONE | NONE |
The specific menu to be executed as a selection on a menu. |
cMenuSelectionType | SLTY | char | NONE | NONE |
The selection type specifies what type of execution a menu selection is. |
szMenuCountryRegionCodes | MCTR | char | NONE | NONE |
The Menu Country/Region Codes field contains the region code (3 bytes) for all
24 menu selections for each menu record. This region
code is used to mask those international selections that are country specific; i.e. 1099 processing in the US and VAT tax processing in Europe. |
szSystemCodeApplicationOve | SYAO | char | NONE | NONE |
A user defined code (98/SY) that identifies the reporting system number for entering specific text or jargon. |
idProcessingOptionIdentifi | POID | ID | NONE | NONE |

|
idApplicationIdentifier | APPI | ID | NONE | NONE |
The application identifier uniquely indentifies the application for client based menus. |
idFormIdentifier | FMID | ID | NONE | NONE |
The form identifier uniquely indentifies a specific form in an application for client based menus. |
idIconIdentifier | ICNI | ID | NONE | NONE |
The icon identifier uniquely indentifies an icon in a file for client based menus. |
cRunMinimized | RNMF | char | NONE | NONE |
The Run Minimized flag determines if a Windows application is to be minimized to an icon when you open it. |
cSelectionConsequences | SLCS | char | NONE | NONE |
The selection consequences tell the user what the consequences are in taking that specific menu selection. |
szUserId | USER | char | NONE | NONE |
The code that identifies a user profile.
|
szProgramId | PID | char | NONE | NONE |
The number that identifies the batch or interactive program (batch or interactive object). For example, the number of the Sales Order Entry
interactive program is P4210, and the number of the Print Invoices batch process report is R42565.
The program ID is a variable length value.
It is assigned according to a structured syntax in the form TSSXXX, where:
T
The first character of the number is alphabetic and identifies the
type, such as P for Program, R for Report, and so on. For example, the value P in the number P4210 indicates that the object is a
program.
SS
The second and third characters of the number are numeric and identify the system code. For example, the value 42 in the number P4210
indicates that this program belongs to system 42, which is the Sales Order Processing system.
XXX
The remaining characters of the numer are
numeric and identify a unique program or report. For example, the value 10 in the number P4210 indicates that this is the Sales Order Entry
program.

this field in the menu record indicates no security exists on this menu |
cKnowledgeMask | MSKK | char | NONE | NONE |
Complete with a user-defined value. This field exists in the JDE user profile and within each menu and menu selection. When security is
active, the value of this field in the user profile is compared with the value in the corresponding menu lock. Comparison of the values in the user
