We will walk through our current and ongoing change strategies and how we utilized Oracle Guided Learning to carry them out.

Many Cloud adopters decided to take a phased approach to Cloud migration, maintaining a hybrid on-prem and cloud ecosystem to meet their business needs. Now that cloud has expanded to contain more robust, enterprise functionality, the time to move out of a hybrid environment is on the horizon. In order to make this transition smooth, it is essential to assess what data is in each system, how often legacy reports and information are utilized, and where each part of a business process is happening – and fully understand how end-to-end business processes cross applications in the hybrid model. This session will focus on a customer case study of continued Cloud migration and moving towards PeopleSoft retirement, starting with an assessment, and mapping what available functionality in Cloud would meet business needs. We’ll detail the tools and templates used to perform this analysis, and the beginning steps for your own application review to continue on your Cloud journey.

In this session, the audience will hear from a panel of the Business Lead, System Implementer and the Security Advisory Firm as they have successfully implemented multiple phases of Oracle Cloud from EPM, EDMC, FCC, ARCS, Financials and SCM. In this case study, we will demonstrate how the key to this implementation was balancing the Security and Controls with the Functionality requested by the business to have a healthy balance that ultimately helped them pass multiple audits.

In this session, we will go deep explore the vision, roadmap, and investment strategies for our key innovations with respect to respect to learning, development, and growth. From LMS to LxP to growth in the flow of work and life, our most recent investments and innovations connect people with valuable, hyper-personalized insights, recommendations, and guidance on skill development for mastering their current roles, as well as their ongoing growth potential.

The move to the Cloud is filled with exuberance and challenges as your organization progresses along the Cloud Maturing Model. The wave of digital transformation brings disruptive changes to the organization as well as an opportunity to evaluate process and incorporate efficiency. True transformation succeeds when people themselves transform and adopt to change. This session will reveal what one of the largest fast foods icons had to contemplate as they started their journey and the maturation that ensued. Every role on the organization from technologists to leaders were required to embrace change for them to become “value creators”. What does your organization need to consider as it progresses along this maturity model? Has your organization considered the roles required as you progress from data center transformation to application stabilization, to supporting hybrid deployments before you modernize your applications?

Whether you are preparing to go to the Cloud in a year, five, or ten, this session will discuss ideas and actions to take today to streamline and re-organize your on prem solutions to act more cloud like in preparation for a one day move to cloud solutions. The main focus of topic will be Billing and Accounts Receivable and actions we are taking now to ready ourselves to make a future shift to cloud easier. How we are project by project taking our older style complex billing structure from the on prem solution and making it less complex to fit in a one size fits all world where customizations are not available.

There will be an end of presentation discussion session to allow others who have transitioned to cloud or are in the process of transitioning to provide ideas or tips and tricks they may have used to help or are helping them to transition to cloud.

Mcgrath has gone through a next generation re-imagination of their IT organization. This project has taken their ERP, infrastructure, security, governance, mdm and entire landscape into a state of change.

One of the biggest challenges in AP, is not just managing the sheer volume of invoices received daily but validating the line-item detail on each invoice, GL coding the information, and vouchering it for payment accurately in JD Edwards. The magic of AP Automation solutions is to automatically perform 3-way matching without manual intervention, but how exactly do you achieve the highest rate of straight-through-processing (STP) and processing efficiency when exceptions are encountered? This is particularly difficult when the invoices you receive are overly complicated with multiple line detail or they are missing information. Or even worse, when the AP invoices contain special charges (like freight surcharges) that are allocated differently depending on the supplier.

This innovative solution allows businesses to share information from EnterpriseOne with their customers. Utilizing of Oracle's cross-industry platform enables mobile access, real-time communication, document versioning, and when combined with the EnterpriseOne Orchestrator allows businesses to share key information with their customers.
