Join us for an inside look at how the City of Plano, TX successfully modernized its JD Edwards ecosystem through a comprehensive technical audit and a strategic upgrade to Application Release 24 and Tools Release 9.2.8.2.

In this session, we’ll walk through the findings of the pre‑upgrade technical audit, which identified key infrastructure risks, security vulnerabilities, outdated components, and gaps in documentation. We’ll show how these insights shaped a targeted modernization plan—transitioning the City from 32‑bit to a fully 64‑bit environment, redesigning infrastructure to separate interfaces and end‑user workloads, and implementing improvements across security, monitoring, and system management.

A sustainable security and compliance model depends on visibility and confidence. For Prinova, that meant moving from reactive security management to taking control directly within JD Edwards.

This session explores Prinova’s journey from quick wins to complex security transformation after transitioning to ALLOut. Immediate results included cleaning up inactive users by 50% as well as clarity around roles, hierarchies, audits, and Segregation of Duties. Problem areas that had previously felt like guesswork.

The focus shifted from copying accumulated access to "What is your job and what are you going to need access to?" Establishing a 'god-like' CPR Finance role and dividing it into AP, AR, and operational roles built trust and buy-in across the team for change control projects.

Developing a controlled, repeatable process for testing and promoting security changes was the turning point. By verifying access in advance with ALLOut, the team eliminated outages and delivered visibility, accountability, and confidence, while optimizing turnaround times.

Join Prinova as they share their journey on achieving immediate impact and sustained success by moving security ownership fully in-house without disrupting operations.

IT leaders within JD Edwards environments are under constant pressure to deliver more solutions with fewer resources, tighter timelines, and increasing integration demands. Traditional development models often struggle to keep pace, leading to growing backlogs and missed business opportunities. This Game Changers session examines how no-code and low-code platforms can be leveraged together to drive IT efficiency and enable sustained innovation.

The session focuses on a modern development model that balances responsibilities across IT and business-facing roles. Low-code capabilities allow developers to concentrate on complex logic, integrations, and technical requirements, while no-code tools empower business analysts and solution architects to independently manage workflows, front-end experiences, business rules, data validation, and JD Edwards integrations. This parallel development approach reduces dependency bottlenecks and increases delivery velocity. The session reviews best practices and key benefits of utilizing no-code/low-code development, including:

-Efficiency Through Integration: Learn how combining No-Code and Low-Code Platforms for JDE applications transforms IT processes.
-Empowering Teams with No-Code: See how business users create applications independently to reduce IT workloads.
-Flexibility with Low-Code Tools: Explore how developers can manage complex use cases with agility and scalability.
-Real-World Case Studies: Discover how IT leaders have achieved faster deployment and improved internal innovation.

Attendees will gain practical insight into how combining no-code and low-code platforms helps optimize IT capacity, improve collaboration across teams, and deliver scalable, business-aligned solutions within JD Edwards environments.
