This presentation will shed light on the mobile application commissioned by Hoffman Construction, designed to streamline the reporting of Health and Safety incidents. This application enables users to submit incidents directly from their phones, facilitating real-time incident management.

Built by ACBM on a technology stack that includes JD Edwards, Orchestrator, OCI, and Oracle VBCS, this application reflects an intriguing blend of technology and functionality, pushing the boundaries of what is typically expected in the construction industry. The presentation will provide a deep dive into the infrastructure of the application, the integration of different technologies, and the level of effort involved in its creation.

We will discuss lessons learned during the application's development and deployment stages, including both triumphs and hurdles, providing insights into the practicalities of such an initiative. A live demonstration will be conducted, offering attendees a first-hand experience of its functionalities. A Q&A session will follow.

Oracle Visual Builder and Orchestrator form a very powerful combination to create apps that make it possible to enhance workflow automation and ease of data entry. Two apps will be shown that were created with Visual Builder. One app will show a workflow that is created to enter meter readings with a mobile device in the field. Another app is a Tenant Portal app that tenants can use to login and see and download their legal documents and invoices which are stored in JD Edwards. In this app they can also create service requests and pay invoices. Both apps do not store any data locally. All data is retrieved from and sent to JD Edwards through Orchestrations.

Inventory management and control will be made much more efficient and flexible by a coming soon feature that will allow availability and movement to be determined by a Location Hold field in the Location Master. This will eliminate the need to update individual item/lot/location records. For inventory planning, safety stock provides protection against unforeseen fluctuations in supply or demand. Another feature coming soon will eliminate the need to manually maintain safety stock values by providing the ability to have them calculated and populated by the system. Attend this session for a detailed preview of these upcoming new features.

End-Users often need to shift/toggle between applications to get all the information needed to create PO Requisitions, monitor balances on open PO’s, verify the receipt and payment status of PO’s or search for engineering drawings and equipment documentation. The result is a time-consuming and inefficient way to look up information that needs to be used downstream in a business process. In this session, learn how Graymont has used the power of Orchestrations, Café One Layouts to link information within and outside of JDE, and Auto-Suggest based lookups to help our end-users with their daily tasks.

After being on JDE for a few years our data set was growing, and performance was starting to decline – it was time to look at archiving data! We enlisted the help of a JDE integrated tool called Purge-It! This tool allows us to archive the data from JDE from within JDE. Their applications and processes use the JDE interface and structure. As we embarked on this journey it helped us to discover process issues that needed to be addressed as well as some data issues that needed to be cleaned up.

Purge-It! Has standard archiving setups for our main JDE modules such as Sales Order, Procurement, Inventory, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and General Ledger. Their custom module allows us to create our own archiving routines for suggestions, shipments, sales ledger, and EDI. We were able to fully automate the archive process by making use of date offsets and setting the jobs to run on our JAMS job scheduler. All of the archived data is still viewable from JDE if we need it too. We have gained cleaner data and a lot of performance improvements!

In 2019, Mueller presented at InFocus and showed how we were beginning to utilize the low-code / no-code toolset to improve our processes in HR and Payroll. In this session, we will review what we started with and expand on where we are now and what we are going towards. Our current improvement process is creating our own employee self service, and Orchestrator is a huge component of this task. This session will review some of the components in place and / or in test and display how we are making our employee's lives much easier with this capability.

Have you heard? Enterprise Automation is ""the next big thing."" It's the natural extension of the success we have had with process automation using the JD Edwards digital platform. The foundations of Enterprise Automation are models and metrics: models to help us visualize our critical business processes, and metrics to tell us how well those processes are running.

In this learning lab you will see how you can use current EnterpriseOne capabilities---some new and some not-so-new---to get started with Enterprise Automation today.

“Do more with less”
“We need to tighten the belt”
“Only projects & initiatives with a tangible ROI are moving forward at this time…”

While this is the first post-pandemic in-person InFocus conference, there is still a long shadow cast by Covid-19 upon business operations. Interest rates (aka the “cost of capital”), labor shortages, global Supply-Chain disruptions… all put pressures on the operations of our businesses and our corporate budgets for IT upgrades, Six-Sigma initiatives, cost/expense management, etc.

In this session, we will discuss how your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne (JDE E1) solution provides the tools for you to see your “Hidden Cost Center,” that part of your business operation that invisibly erodes your corporate budget and profitability. We explore how these tools in JDE E1, recently elevated with Release 23, can be assembled to promote Operational Excellence, a state where all aspects of your EnterpriseOne business solution supports the goals of your company.

We invite you to attend this EAM Title Track spotlight session to see what the “art of the possible” looks like when EnterpriseOne Release 23 capabilities are combined with Oracle Validated Integration Solutions for JD Edwards (OVI).
