P-052759: Automating Employee Lifecycle Management in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne

This session was presented at INFOCUS 2026.

Managing user identities across the employee and contractor lifecycle is a critical yet often labor-intensive process. This session showcases a fully automated User Access Management (UAM) solution that integrates UKG Pro, QSoft, Automate Scheduler, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to deliver real-time, audit-ready identity governance. Built using native JD Edwards technologies, including EnterpriseOne Subsystems and Orchestrator, the solution automates onboarding, Address Book and User Profile creation, role assignment, Segregation of Duties (SoD) validation, employee transfers, promotions, cost center changes, legal name changes, rehires, and immediate offboarding. Workforce events initiated in UKG Pro automatically provision, modify, or revoke JD Edwards access without manual intervention. The framework includes robust exception management that detects processing anomalies, identifies root causes, and automatically notifies process owners with corrective actions. Comprehensive onboarding, offboarding, role-assignment, and access-change reporting provides full visibility for compliance and audit requirements. Attendees will learn how to implement a scalable, touchless identity governance framework that improves operational efficiency, strengthens security controls, enhances audit readiness, reduces administrative effort, and minimizes unauthorized access risks.

P-052980: Weaver Leather's Digital Transformation Playbook: How JD Edwards Connected Customers Drove Real Business Results

This session was presented at INFOCUS 2026.

In today's digital landscape, the full potential of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is frequently underutilized, particularly when it comes to customer-facing operations. While Customer Service, Sales, and Finance teams rely on JD Edwards daily, routine customer inquiries continue to generate manual work, slow response times, and operational inefficiencies that drain resources and frustrate customers. The organizations overcoming these challenges are doing so by implementing JD Edwards-centric self-service portals and B2B ecommerce platforms that put customers in control and keep JD Edwards as the single source of truth for every interaction. This session showcases how modern JD Edwards-integrated portals are transforming customer operations, enabling customers to search products with AI-powered search, check real-time inventory and pricing, place orders with AI-driven purchase order importing, view and pay invoices, access warranty services, all on a 24/7 basis from a single unified platform. Attendees will discover how this approach drives down operational costs, boosts customer satisfaction, eliminates manual CSR workload, and ensures JD Edwards EnterpriseOne remains the authoritative source of truth across every customer touchpoint. Whether you are evaluating your first portal initiative or looking to modernize an existing one, this session will show you how a JD Edwards-integrated digital commerce platform can transform your operations and make your team's job significantly easier.

P-052925: JDE E1 Mobile Inventory Tracking Journey

This session was presented at INFOCUS 2026.

When Atkore, a leading electrical, safety, and infrastructure solutions provider, partnered with RF-SMART in 2017 to implement a mobile inventory management solution on JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the goal was straightforward: improve accuracy and visibility across warehouse operations. What followed was nearly a decade of continuous evolution. This session traces Atkore's journey from initial deployment to a fully mature, 64-bit, high-availability platform running 24/7 across multiple time zones. Presenters will walk through the starting scenario, the decisions made along the way — including location expansions, server and software upgrades, and capacity scaling — and the hard-won lessons learned at each stage. Attendees will gain insight into what it takes to grow an enterprise WMS deployment alongside a growing business, how to manage complexity introduced by multi-site and multi-timezone operations, and how Atkore and RF-SMART have continued to unlock new functionality over time. Now operating on JDE E1 Release 26 and RF-SMART 6.0.3, Atkore's platform reflects years of refinement. This session will cover the measurable improvements achieved, the current state of the platform, and a forward-looking discussion on what the next phase may hold. Whether you are early in your RF-SMART or JDE E1 journey or looking to scale an existing deployment, this session offers a practical, experience-driven roadmap for long-term success.

P-053150: Tips, Tricks & Traps: JDE System Administration Secrets You Won't Find in the Manual

This session was presented at INFOCUS 2026.

After years in the JD Edwards trenches, you collect a particular kind of knowledge — the settings, shortcuts and behaviors that aren't in any manual and that you usually learn the hard way. This session is a fast-paced collection of technical and CNC system-administration tips, tricks and traps drawn from real-world projects: small things that save hours, and a few innocent-looking options that quietly cause chaos down the line. For each one we'll keep it practical — what it appears to do, what it actually does behind the scenes, and the right way to handle it. Whether you're a CNC administrator, a technical consultant or a power user, you'll walk away with a handful of immediately usable techniques, a few "never do this" warnings, and a sharper instinct for the non-obvious side of JD Edwards.
