In this episode, Chandra and Paul dive into a detailed discussion on JD Edwards’ Form Design Aid (FDA). They explore how to trace where application values come from—whether tables or calculated logic—using FDA, highlighting a challenging example with the Job Status Inquiry and a more straightforward one with the Contract Billing Line Inquiry. The hosts emphasize practical troubleshooting tips, the usefulness of FDA for business analysts, and the power of reverse engineering in JD Edwards.
