Using Absence Management to Tackle State Requirements with Special Absence Plans
Presented by: Robert Usher, Samaritan's Purse
Date/Time: Thursday, May 7, 2026, 10:00 am PT

Many state governments are now requiring all employees to have a basic level of benefits. At Samaritan’s Purse we are using PeopleSoft’s Absence Management to address these requirements. Our regular full-time employees have standard benefit plans, but these plans did not account for our temporary and seasonal employees. We needed to address this gap so that HR could transition from manually tracking to automated tracking. Our resolution to automating our temporary employees was to create a new Special Absence plan within our PeopleSoft Absence Management module. This presentation will review challenges with both: 1) the requirements we faced, and 2) their configuration within the Absence Management module. See how we: •Addressed the complexities of states having different regulations •Handled a workforce that moves regularly in and out of those different states •Made our system available to those who needed to use it Adding a Special State plan to our Absence Management module allowed us to build on existing functionality and keep our absence plans centered within one area. We used modified Accumulators for lifetime tracking as well as Termination tracking. We setup Arrays to track approved working hours, retro payroll adjustments, and rehire options. We used Brackets to identify Earning Codes and Time Reporting Codes. We were able to accomplish our goals through configuration.

In PeopleTools 8.62 it is possible to add and configure additional OpenSearch Plugins to OpenSearch delivered for PeopleSoft. Symantec Search can be configured using Neural Search and machine learning models. Semantic search employs Neural Search in order to determine the intention of the user’s query in the search context, thereby improving search relevance. Neural Search can use OpenSearch-provided pretrained models, your own custom models, or a foundation model hosted on an external platform. Conversational Search can be configured to use external AI LLM’s. Conversational Search uses large language models (LLMs) to read the top N documents and synthesizes those documents into a plaintext “answer” to your question. Additional Plug-Ins that can be configured are Anomaly Detection and Alerting. Anomaly detection automatically detects anomalies in your OpenSearch data in near real-time and the Alerting Plugin can notify you as soon as an anomaly is detected.

Avoiding Hidden Licensing Pitfalls in Oracle Environments: What Every Applications Team Should Know
Presented by: Michael Corey, LicenseFortress
Date/Time: Monday, May 4, 2026, 4:45 pm PT

Licensing challenges in Oracle environments rarely come from the Applications themselves—they come from the unexpected intersections between technical architecture, contract terms, and the way environments evolve over time. As workloads shift between on-premises, OCI, and virtualized infrastructure, even small configuration decisions can create licensing exposure that isn’t obvious until it becomes expensive. In this session, we draw from real-world examples to highlight the hidden pitfalls that Oracle customers encounter most often—misunderstandings about usage rights, inherited deployments, virtualized clusters, custom integrations, and renewal timelines that don’t match operational reality. These issues aren’t the result of vendor intent; they’re the result of environments growing faster than internal governance. Attendees will learn practical, contract-aligned strategies for: •Identifying deployment patterns that commonly trigger unintended licensing obligations •Understanding how Applications customizations and integrations impact entitlements •Preparing for renewals with clear, defensible data—not assumptions •Aligning architecture decisions with contract terms to avoid surprise costs •Building an internal licensing posture that reduces risk year-round Attendees will walk away with practical insights they can apply immediately—strengthening governance, reducing risk, and ensuring their Oracle environments support both operational needs and long-term strategy.

Exploring 10 Years of 9.2 Tools Releases: A Quick Journey Through Innovation
Presented by: Jerry Salazar, Syntax Systems USA: LP
Date/Time: Monday, May 4, 2026, 9:45 am PT

Did you know there have been more than 400 enhancements to JD Edwards 9.2 Tools since its release in October 2015? While many of these improvements happen behind the scenes, a significant number directly enhance the user experience and support your Digital Transformation and Automation initiatives. Do you fully understand what your current Tools Release offers from a User Experience and Digital Transformation perspective? Join me for this session as we take a straightforward look at the enhancements delivered with each Tools Release since the launch of 9.2. I’ve done the research and compiled a simple, easy to follow list to guide our discussion. As a consultant, I can typically access the latest features within days of their GA release; however, this isn’t always as simple for customers. With Oracle delivering new features every couple od months—plus a major release each year—it can be challenging for organizations to stay current. Although Oracle has significantly simplified the upgrade process, for many customers even a minor Tools Release update can still feel like a major project. In this session, we’ll explore the key features delivered in each release and learn how to make the most of what you already have access to—whether or not it’s the very latest version.

Smarter Product Returns with JDE Orchestrator & Gen AI
Presented by: Kevin Musick, IT Convergence
Date/Time: Monday, May 4, 2026, 4:45 pm PT

Product returns are expensive, slow, and manual because someone has to touch and inspect each item before a decision is made. That lag drives up warehouse labor, delays refunds, and leaves your JD Edwards inventory and recovery values out of sync with reality. In this session, we'll show how JDE EnterpriseOne Orchestrator and Generative AI can pre-classify product condition before the item arrives, using only the customer's return comments. You'll see how free-text reasons are converted into clear disposition categories—New/Sealed, Like New, Refurbishable, Damaged, or Non-Resale (hygiene/severe damage)—and then drive an automated workflow in JDE: Orchestrator receives the JSON payload from a third-party returns system, calls GenAI for classification, creates the appropriate purchase order, and uses Receipt Routing to apply the correct status so inventory and refund processes update with zero or minimal manual review. We'll walk through the orchestration design, the GenAI prompt pattern, error/low-confidence handling, and how to measure business impact in cycle time, labor savings, and recovery value.

Ease the burden of E1 testing – A customer’s perspective on why and how!
Presented by: Linda Sloan-Compton, Pinal County Government
Date/Time: Monday, May 4, 2026, 4:45 pm PT

With Oracle JD Edwards extending support to 2036 and encouraging customers to stay code current, it is crucial to find ways to make maintenance and functional testing processes more efficient. For most JDE E1 customers, relying on end users and subject matter experts (SMEs) with heavy workloads and limited time makes functional testing challenging. Consequently, the quality and scope of testing and documentation often vary dramatically and inconsistently from one project to the next. In this session, we will explore how Pinal County successfully leveraged the DWS SwifTest tool to complete testing for our EnterpriseOne 9.2 applications and Tools upgrade. This process also allowed us to establish a comprehensive library of standard and custom business processes. Key benefits of adopting this approach included: - Documenting detailed process steps. - Leveraging consistent test data for repeatable actions. - Automating script running. - Creating a basis for end-user training documentation. - Providing auditors with consistent documentation of testing validation performed before promotion to Production.

Building a Business Case for Modernization: Measuring ROI Through Your JD Edwards Upgrade
Presented by: Craig Hill, C&A Technology LLC
Date/Time: Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 11:00 am PT

Building a compelling case for modernizing your JD Edwards environment can be difficult for many organizations. Improved user experience, enhanced visibility into business operations through intuitive applications, and faster response to support issues are often viewed as “nice to haves.” On their own, they can feel like incremental improvements rather than strategic drivers of change. However, when positioned as part of a broader modernization strategy, upgrades become enablers of measurable business transformation grounded in tangible, hard-dollar outcomes as opposed to just a technical project. This case study presentation will demonstrate how a JD Edwards customer framed their upgrade as a modernization initiative that identified operational inefficiencies, automation opportunities, and process improvements across key business functions. By aligning upgrade capabilities with strategic business priorities, they built a compelling ROI model that supported not just system currency, but long-term operational agility and enterprise modernization.

Unlocking the OCI Advantage; Modernizing PeopleSoft Campus Solutions with Oracle Cloud Manager Case Study of New Brunswick Community College
Presented by: Ranjith Yengoti, SMACT Works
Date/Time: Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 11:00 am PT

This session highlights New Brunswick Community College (NBCC) and its PeopleSoft Campus Solutions modernization on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) through implementation of Oracle PeopleSoft Cloud Manager. Attendees will gain a practical, end-to-end view of the implementation and the measurable benefits achieved. The presentation explores how NBCC used Cloud Manager—particularly Policy Manager—to automate Dev, Test, Training, and Production environments. By scheduling automated start/stop events, NBCC reduced costs and improved efficiency. Capabilities such as self-service provisioning, automated backup and restore, Lift & Shift, and lifecycle management further streamlined operations and maximized uptime. A concise overview of key features will include environment provisioning, governance, install and configure, orchestration, updates and upgrades, PeopleTools patching, selective adoption, and backup and recovery. Learning objectives include: Understanding the implementation process. Identifying required resources and timelines. Quantifying operational and financial benefits. Leveraging Policy Manager to lower total cost of ownership through automation. The session addresses common questions: Which features drive the most value? How does Cloud Manager reduce costs? What resources are required? The primary message is the business case for lifting and shifting PeopleSoft (CS, HCM, or FSCM) to OCI and fully adopting Cloud Manager. Through a real-world case study, this session is especially relevant for organizations that have moved to OCI but have not yet implemented Cloud Manager to unlock its full value.

Building a Modern Rebate Architecture on JDE E1: High-Volume Ingestion, Rule Evaluation, and Optimized Claiming
Presented by: Jason Gendreau, Connection Inc.
Date/Time: Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 11:00 am PT

This session provides a technical deep dive into how we built a modern, scalable Rebate Management architecture on JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Advanced Pricing (ASP) to handle high-volume, multi-vendor rebate programs. Standard JDE rebate functionality could not support the scale, complexity, and data diversity required by manufacturers such as HP and Lenovo, so we engineered a custom, end-to-end framework that unifies data ingestion, rule evaluation, pricing, and claiming. We will explore how large XML feeds, EDI 832 catalogs, and high-volume spreadsheet loads are consolidated through a standardized ingestion layer that performs scrubbing, enrichment, and validation before driving rebate and pricing processes. Attendees will also learn how rebate programs are structured and maintained, how product hierarchies reduce data explosion, and how fixed, formula-based, and vendor-list–based rebate calculations are handled within custom pricing logic. The session covers the rule evaluation and eligibility mechanisms—including customer-based qualifications, class-code groupings, and sophisticated stacking logic that determines optimal rebate outcomes for quoting and order entry. We will also show how this custom logic integrates with JDE’s pricing engine through Advanced Pricing adjustments and BSSV/API-driven interactions. Finally, we review the complete claiming lifecycle: date-based extract processing, reconciliation workflows, mismatch resolution, serial-number compliance, returns handling, and generation of final claim files. This session offers a blueprint for architects, developers, and pricing teams looking to extend JDE E1 for enterprise-scale rebate management with improved automation, performance, and rebate recovery.

AI-Driven Data Interrogation in PeopleSoft: Creating a Platform-Agnostic Framework for GenAI
Presented by: Chris Yeager, CACI Inc.
Date/Time: Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 3:00 pm PT

How do we address the pressing and ever-growing challenge of managing and interrogating vast amounts of enterprise data, both within and outside PeopleSoft? Traditional methods often fall short in providing efficient and intuitive access to this data, leading to inefficiencies and missed insights. While PeopleSoft has made several strides in recent years utilizing OpenSearch to address this problem (Global Search, Real-Time Indexing, OpenSearch Dashboards, etc.), Generative AI has potential to unlock additional data insights. We will demonstrate how to leverage a platform-agnostic AI framework to interact with large language models (LLMs) within PeopleSoft to interrogate enterprise data. In this talk, we highlight a few specific use cases that showcase the practical applications of this technology: •We'll explore a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) approach to interact with a knowledge base, facilitating a chat capability where users can ask questions about enterprise policies, procedures, and processes. •We'll feed data directly from PeopleSoft into the AI, allowing users to securely ask questions on any data which they have access to. We rely on PeopleSoft Security and PeopleSoft Search Framework for dynamic OpenSearch queries, inheriting appropriate document level security to control what data the AI can access.

Navigating Application Training Methodologies in Changing Workplace Environments
Presented by: Abigail Raia, WorkStream Technology
Date/Time: Wednesday, May 6, 2026, 9:00 am PT

The Covid-19 pandemic created challenges for virtually everyone in corporate America. Keeping the State of Indiana’s PeopleSoft Financials users trained was no exception. In February 2020 (only days prior to the coronavirus becoming a part of our collective vocabulary), I kicked off a Statewide project to update our training documentation, which garnered not only the *attention* of our elected officials, but also their buy-in and support. Of note, this occurred after determining that many training materials hadn’t been updated since the 2009 implementation of PeopleSoft with the State of Indiana, and now, time was of the essence. Fast forward to the project kick-off session, where I hosted approximately 75 stakeholders only days prior to the majority of employees ‘going remote’. We knew the importance of not only updating the Instructor-Led Training (ILT) materials to account for PUM / version changes but also acknowledging the criticality of migrating the content to a Computer-Based Training (CBT) format. The pandemic gave us further justification to push this project to the front burner in our stakeholders’ respective workloads and get this information to our approximately 8,000 impacted PeopleSoft Financials users. In this session, we will discuss how we accomplished this with stakeholders that were almost 100% remote, we’ll also focus on the importance of migrating from ILT to CBT format and why, even post-pandemic, this remains the best methodology for training our PeopleSoft Financials end users.

From Legacy to Future-Ready: How We Built a Modern JD Edwards Integration Portal
Presented by: Barry Wright, Enterprise Technologies
Date/Time: Wednesday, May 6, 2026, 10:00 am PT

Over time, our JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment accumulated numerous custom integrations—each built differently and managed separately through batch jobs, external schedulers, and manual monitoring. We saw an opportunity not just to modernize these legacy integrations but to build a sustainable, future-ready integration framework inside JD Edwards itself. Using Orchestrations, UDOs, Pages, custom tables, and low-code/no-code extensions, we created a configurable Integration Portal that brings visibility, automation, and self-service directly to end users. The portal now handles processes across Payroll, AP, AR, and HR while preserving JD Edwards security and enabling users to re-run or correct processes without IT intervention. We’ll share how we transformed years of disconnected integrations into a modern digital platform that connects EnterpriseOne with cloud services, analytics, and AI, setting the foundation for future innovation.

Some of you may find this story familiar, as it was previously shared at Infocus25 last September. At that point, however, the integration test results were still pending, and the full picture had not yet emerged. The story took a dramatic turn during the Go Live. We were faced with an unwelcome surprise: system performance declined drastically. Despite extensive discussions and thorough checks, we reached a difficult crossroads. Ultimately, we resolved not to proceed with the new 64-bit environment and instead opted to remain on the existing 32-bit system. To this day, the root cause of these performance issues remains unidentified. What will happen next? For those eager for answers, all will be revealed at BLUEPRINT 4D.

Understanding which customers or potential customers are likely to buy is another place to leverage AI. Finding anomalies quicker to address as needed (potentially with an Agent). Finding the product that is the next product a customer will buy is helpful to increase revenue. Finding attributes of great customers create opportunities & you'll learn what they want to buy first or second. Add a chatbot to ask the customer or help the customer or employee find something in a document.

OH Wait… Should I Have Gotten a Prenup?
Presented by: Shannon Alred, Brown & Root Industrial Services
Date/Time: Thursday, May 7, 2026, 10:00 am PT

Much like a relationship, entering into a supplier contract feels secure—until things change. What happens when your trusted partner—whether a managed services provider or hosting vendor—is acquired, restructures, or sells off key operations? Suddenly, you're trying to exit a high-stakes agreement with a different team than the one you negotiated with—and those “standard terms” you relied on may not offer the protection you expected. Even before that point, bumps and stumbles can happen early in the relationship. Maybe you were sold a “completed” solution that turns out to be built just for you in real time—or a bid that looked like a bargain at the start leads to a series of change orders and mounting project overruns. These red flags can quickly turn what felt like a partnership into a long-term commitment you didn’t bargain for. This session explores the often-overlooked risks in long-term vendor relationships, especially when it comes to managed services and hosting agreements. You’ll learn: •Why typical exit language and boilerplate legal terms fail in the face of M&A activity •How shifts in ownership, support models, or service levels can impact your contractual rights—and your JD Edwards ecosystem •What to watch for in proposals and project scopes to avoid low-bid traps, hidden development costs, and “custom-built” surprises •What to include when negotiating MSAs and hosting contracts to ensure flexibility, protection, and clear exit strategies The session will close with an open discussion about real-world issues participants have faced in vendor and hosting relationships and a collaborative list of action items organizations can take to strengthen agreements, mitigate risk, and protect themselves when things change.
