The reconciliation of Bank statements was quickly becoming a full time job for our finance team as they manually reconciled using the bank statement, a statement from our credit card processor, and some spreadsheets to match transaction totals. New Ecommerce initiatives happening this year will generate even more credit card and ACH transactions. So we needed a way to help the reconciliation process. We embarked on implementing the Auto Bank Reconciliation process in JDE. However, we found not even half the transactions were being reconciled. The challenge seemed to be the credit card and ACH transactions.
In this session we will walk though steps in the process, how we configured the JDE Reconciliation from start to finish and what we learned. Then added our own process automation – using JDE tools to solve the gap with the credit card and ACH transactions.
Now the majority of transactions our Bank statements are automatically reconciled (Receipt transactions to the G/L to the bank statement) and finance only has to select and manually match a few exceptions via the JDE application – and that is literally a side by side select and press the reconcile button! Gone are all the extra spreadsheets and extra hours of work!

Our company realized we had a lot of old, misplaced users still in the system which led us to doing a mass JDE user cleanup. During this process, we also saw the need for a security audit and cleanup. We were able to do this independently without consultants. Today we will talk about our process, issues we ran into, overall results, items we missed, key takeaways, and the new processes we put in place to prevent having to do a mass cleanup like this again.

How do you analyze your JD Edwards data?
For Rockline, it was mainly seeing the numbers from JDE reports in .csv format. Or if you were lucky, you had access to Spreadsheet Server, WebQuery, Data Browser, or a read-only connection to the database. However, this approach was limited and led to multiple reports with different numbers and no trust as to what was right or wrong.
As data visualization technologies continued to advance, business users started connecting those Excel reports to Power BI for better data visualization and insights. This meant IT now had to play catch up…

In this session, we’ll explore Rockline’s business intelligence journey to get the most out of JDE data and make smarter decisions. You will learn:
1. How we customized our analytics to Rockline’s business by adding our JDE custom tables and fields
2. How IT was able to leverage modern data architectures to enable business users to focus on finding value from the information instead of collecting and transforming it
3. How we started building trust in data and best practices you can use at your company
