When JD Edwards EnterpriseOne first introduced the concept of composite pages, the goal was simple: give users a way to organize content and streamline daily tasks without heavy development work. Over the past ten years, these pages have transformed from a limited tool into one of the most powerful user experience features in the JD Edwards platform. At INFOCUS 2025, Haiyan Wang took attendees on a journey through the evolution of EnterpriseOne pages, highlighting how enhancements over the last decade continue to shape productivity and process automation. 

From Classic Pages to Composite Pages 

In the early days, creating a classic page was cumbersome. Developers had to package HTML, CSS, images, and scripts into deployable files—a time-consuming process that locked out non-technical users. Composite pages changed everything. With a simple, drag-and-drop interface, business users could design pages, combine multiple content types, and configure layouts without touching code. This “what you see is what you get” approach empowered users to personalize their workspaces and streamline navigation. 

Enhancements That Changed the Game 

Over the years, Oracle has steadily delivered improvements that expanded the functionality of composite pages. Key milestones include: 

• Simplified navigation – Users can launch applications, orchestrations, or reports directly from tiles, cutting clicks and saving time. 
• Integration with automation – Pages became the foundation for the Alert, Analyze, Act model, where watchlists, analytics, and applications/reports work together in real time. 
• Content flexibility – From embedded applications to dynamic watchlists and widgets, composite pages evolved into portals that bring information from multiple sources into a single, unified view. 
• Process modeling – The addition of process modeler panes allows enterprises to visualize and manage end-to-end workflows directly from their pages. 
• Personalization at scale – Features like dynamic watchlists and user favorites ensure that when a page is shared across teams, every user still sees the data most relevant to them. 

These enhancements transformed EnterpriseOne pages into hubs for automation, insight, and action, offering organizations the ability to build modern, role-based workspaces without costly custom development. 

Real-World Value for Users 

Attendees at INFOCUS shared how these capabilities help them reimagine daily operations. A production scheduling page that brings together orders, processes, and status updates on a single screen was cited as a favorite. Others highlighted the time savings from launching orchestrations directly from tiles or monitoring critical KPIs through widgets and watchlists. Each enhancement reflects Oracle’s ongoing investment in making JD Edwards more intuitive and user-driven. 

Looking Ahead 

With JD Edwards Release 26, Oracle is pushing page functionality even further, embedding process models directly into pages and expanding options for content interaction. As Wang noted, composite pages are no longer just an add-on—they are central to the JD Edwards digital platform strategy. For organizations, that means more opportunities to modernize user experiences, reduce manual navigation, and accelerate enterprise automation.
