Change is hard for most organizations and people, but it does not have to be if you use a people-centered approach. Many times organzitions see the benefit of implementing process and system changes that compel them to move forward quickly. That can cause issues of adoption that actually end up squashing short term (and sometimes long term) results. In this session, you will see how to leverage E1 features to roll out process changes in a measured manner that increases adoption and intended results.

Objectives

Understand change management techniques

Understand E1 features that will help change management

How to sell this into the organziation

JD Edwards customers are either moving or considering a move to the public cloud. Comparing and contrasting the available public cloud options requires basic fluency in general, public cloud concepts. We will outline the steps in the cloud migration journey, learn about public cloud concepts, and see why Amazon Web Services (AWS) is such a powerful and compelling choice for your public cloud platform.

Along the road to the public cloud, organizations are lured by the potential and promises but often fail to capitalize on the value offered by the public cloud. This session will uncover the best practices when migrating to the public cloud and will review how public cloud tools and capabilities should be used to optimize business outcomes. During this session, you'll hear from Amazon Web Services (AWS) about the potential to transform your technology landscape, how to unleash the power of the public cloud, and how to maximize the benefits for your organization.

Objectives

General public cloud concepts and the public cloud migration journey.

The AWS public cloud platform and using the power of Amazon Web Services to unleash the power of the public cloud.

Real-world case studies for a successful public cloud migration.

The market for electric cars in Norway is powering ahead, with most new cars being fully electric or hybrid. In addition to new sales, there are also many used electrical vehicles being sold with buyers typically requiring a home charger installed. Circle K Norway provide home chargers and installations and sell them online.

Online orders went into Salesforce and sales staff would receive a notification email. The challenge was that each order had to be manually registered in JDE taking up to 10-15 mins each time. Manual entry also meant that there was potential for human error to creep into order data entry.

Circle K wanted to automate the entire process from Salesforce to JD Edwards. Using Orchestrator, the team developed an orchestration and API for Salesforce integration.

Now each order takes 1 minute to process versus 10-15 minutes originally. The orchestration works so well, that Circle K Norway are now looking to use it for B2B transactions and in other use case scenarios.

Objectives

Cut out all non-value-added activities using orchestration.

Remove human mistakes and errors.

Improve efficiency by repeating this tactic for other business transactions/activities.

Do you have problems with blocking on your database? If you are trying to solve that problem by killing sessions directly on the database, you could be making the problem worse. You are focusing in the wrong area if you ever want to solve the blocking issue, because blocking is caused by the application – not the database.

Blocking is how the database maintains the integrity of your data in the face of bad application code, conflicting updates, errant users, and much more. If you try to circumvent that protection by killing sessions, you could cause long downtimes and data integrity issues. Blocking is symptom of a problem, not the cause of a problem.

Objectives

Find out how this critical function of your database protects you

How to discover the true cause of blocking so you can solve it once and for all
