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.

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.

Comoto is America's largest powersports aftermarket retailer with 150 stores nationwide and over 90 years of combined experience serving motorcycle enthusiasts everywhere. Comoto has implemented a comprehensive Vendor Self-Service (VSS) solution designed to modernize and streamline vendor interactions throughout the purchasing lifecycle. The no-code/low-code based platform empowers vendors to independently review, acknowledge, and modify purchase orders (POs) within a unified, user-friendly portal. By reducing manual intervention and email-based coordination, the VSS solution enhances transparency, accuracy, and responsiveness between Comoto’s procurement teams and their vendor network. The result is a more agile supply chain process that improves data integrity and minimizes administrative overhead. Fully integrated with JD Edwards (JDE), the solution provides end-to-end automation from PO creation through voucher entry, ensuring real-time synchronization and seamless transactional flow. Vendors gain immediate visibility into PO status, shipment details, and payment updates, while Comoto gains greater control and auditability over procurement activities. This presentation will demonstrate how the VSS platform not only simplifies vendor engagement but also delivers measurable efficiency gains and improved collaboration across the organization’s sourcing ecosystem.
