Abstract:

The reconciliation of Bank statements was quickly becoming a full time job for our finance team as they manually reconciled using the bank statement, a statement from our credit card processor, and some spreadsheets to match transaction totals. New Ecommerce initiatives happening this year will generate even more credit card and ACH transactions. So we needed a way to help the reconciliation process. We embarked on implementing the Auto Bank Reconciliation process in JDE. However, we found not even half the transactions were being reconciled. The challenge seemed to be the credit card and ACH transactions.
In this session we will walk though steps in the process, how we configured the JDE Reconciliation from start to finish and what we learned. Then added our own process automation – using JDE tools to solve the gap with the credit card and ACH transactions.

Now the majority of transactions our Bank statements are automatically reconciled (Receipt transactions to the G/L to the bank statement) and finance only has to select and manually match a few exceptions via the JDE application – and that is literally a side by side select and press the reconcile button! Gone are all the extra spreadsheets and extra hours of work!

Abstract:

You’ve probably heard the buzzword "No-code/Low-code" and its promises to make application development and customization faster, easier, and with nontechnical skills. Did you know that your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system has No-code/Low-code features built right into it? We call it the Extensibility Framework, and it’s EnterpriseOne’s way of enabling you to optimize your applications at ever level—data, logic, and user interface—without the cost and complexity of traditional customizations. The JD Edwards product development team has been building out the Extensibility Framework for several years, for example, personal forms, form extensions, logic extensions, EnterpriseOne pages, and the list goes on. Over time, it’s easy to lose track of every capability in the Extensibility Framework, leaving many "hidden gems" just waiting for discovery.

Join this session to discover some of these hidden gems that you might not know were buried right beneath your feet. Hopefully some of these gems will help fill your JD Edwards treasure chest.
