JD Edwards has always been known as the #1 ERP of choice for Engineering and Construction customers, due to its overall natural integration across all modules in order to provide key costing information in a real-time format. However, there had always been a gap in required functionality to support joint venture arrangements…until now! JDE has created new joint venture functionality in order to continue to provide exceptional solutions in this arena. From creating both internal and external legal entities and establishing % ownerships, to calculating and managing the distributable amounts for each JV partner, JD Edwards now has the flexibility to assist with managing your JV needs! Join us as we review this new functionality, from configuration / setup through reviewing specific examples in order to demonstrate the new forecasting features. If you are already a JDE Job Cost user or if you are in the construction industry, this is one session that you won’t want to miss!

There are many situations when it is difficult to design your General Ledger to capture ALL necessary sales or operational detail (e.g. related sales person, item description, product line, original manufacturing location, etc.) in order to be able to further breakdown your financial transactions for reporting / analysis purposes. This can lead to problems due to a disconnect between your operational and financial results within your ERP. In this session, we will discuss three types of functionality to consider: Flexible Accounting, Subledgers, and Advanced Cost Types. While they have their differences, these can each be used to drive additional detail into your G/L. We will explain each type of functionality, as well as how each can provide more benefit to your reporting/analysis needs. Join us as we discuss how this functionality can be used to design more operational details into your G/L transactions, in order to better enhance reporting and inquiry functions.
