The Problem It Solves

Who works with it

Data owners
Finance and supply chain administrators
Master data teams

Duplicate suppliers, customers with three spellings, items with missing units of measure, address book records nobody has touched in years: bad master data is the quiet cause of failed postings, wrong invoices and reports that do not reconcile.

JDE DataGuard™ keeps master data clean continuously. It finds duplicates and gaps against your own rules, proposes the corrections with the evidence, and applies them only once the data owner has approved, so quality stops decaying between one-off clean-up projects.

What JDE DataGuard™ does

Detects duplicate and near-duplicate address book, customer, supplier and item records
Validates required fields, formats and cross-references against your business rules
Scores records by completeness and business impact so the worst problems are fixed first
Proposes merges and corrections with a full audit trail
Watches new records as they are created and flags problems at source

How JDE DataGuard™ works

The same governed loop as every Agent on JDE AgentOS™ (monitor, analyse, recommend, execute), applied to this Agent's job. Nothing reaches JD Edwards without a person approving it.

Monitor
Watches address book, item and other master tables for new and changed records.
Analyse
Checks them against duplicate rules, validation rules and reference data.
Recommend
Lists the corrections and merges for the data owner, with the reasoning.
Execute
Applies only approved changes, each one logged and reversible.

Works with

What Data It Touches

Reads: address book, customer and supplier master, item master and branch/plant records, related reference data
Writes: approved corrections and merges, with an audit record of every change
Never touches: transactions, pricing or financial balances

Security: Where the Data Stays and Who Can Access It

A governance layer routes every action through human approval workflows, and the action layer only executes JD Edwards transactions that have been approved. The connector layer is AIS, Orchestrator, REST APIs and the database.

Where it sits in the JDE Agent Fabric

JDE DataGuard™ lives in the Agent layer. Everything above it governs what it may do; everything below it is how it reads JD Edwards.
