Many CFO's and business leaders agree that the finance organization is key to better decision-making and to the future success of the business. But they also agree that current capabilities of most finance groups fall short of what’s needed to take on the challenges of a digital economy. What’s needed is a cloud-based enterprise performance management (EPM) system that gives finance groups the flexibility, advanced analytics, and robust reporting that can help lead the business forward. Join this session to explore the benefits of an EPM solution and how it integrates with JD Edwards and other ERP's to promote integrated planning throughout the company, including finance, human resources, sales, marketing, and supply chain.
