Sounds like they need to go get Java from Oracle and install it. While it is true that many, many, many years ago, Apple stopped distributing Java with MacOS, it is not true that you can't run Java on Mac. I run it at home and use the IBM i Access client all the time and it has not suddenly stopped working (and I'm on the latest version of MacOS and Java 8).
Now that said, I can't speak to the Lega-Suite Java Client as we only use the Windows native client, but I'm sure a support person could get with them and determine what version of Java to install and how to test it.

My technical team is tell me that the Macs at our company performed an update yesterday that in effect disables the use of Java on the computer. Originally the Mac users were using a Java script in Safari to access a GUI presentation (Lega-Suite GUI Java Client) of the JD Edwards application. I forwarded the Mac install directory of the Client Solutions but they are telling me that Java will not run native on the Mac any more due to a squabble between Apple and Oracle. I have no experience on using a Mac so I am having to rely on them. Of course using Client Solutions will still force the users to work on a text based screen instead of the GUI window but the only alternative that the technical team has to offer is installing a copy of Windows on the Mac and using IE to access the GUI Screens.
