One way that customers reduce inventory carrying cost and drive process efficiency is through use of Consigned and Vendor Managed Inventory. We often end up with clunky and sub-optimal processes to manage this business in JDE. If your business is doing consignment or VMI with customers and you're not aware of the Outbound Inventory module and what it does, then this session is for you. We'll look at the basics of configuration, and walk through a consignment example from start to finish. Ditch the Excel documents, the proliferation of Branch/Plants, and the angst of trying to reconcile off-site inventory and come see why this module ought to be considered as a solution for these business processes.

We have created a Shipping application using VBCS and Orchestrations replacing an aging technology. The Shipping app is used by our warehouse staff to pick sales orders, pack sales orders, print labels, ship confirm the orders and auto print the associated order and pallet packing lists. The application not only ensures accuracy of part, location and lot scanned but also has the ability to send an email to the warehouse supervisor of inventory discrepancies proactively avoiding customer shortages when possible. The application runs on Surface Gos using bluetooth scanners and a mobile zebra printer. The Shipping app runs within JDE as a Composed Page with soft coding allowing the AIS user token to be used for all Orchestration calls. This allows us to maintain the user level auditing tracking and JDE security that is necessary for inventory management.

Title: 9.2 Delivers Shop Floor Control

Session ID: 108130

How can I search for a customer address record based on their city, state and zip? How can I narrow down my item lookup in purchase order entry to only view items for my specific vendor? The answer used to be "you can't without an enhancement" - there were some workarounds, but nothing that completely met the business need. And then along came EnterpriseOne Search! This UDO allows custom searches to be built, including over multiple business views or tables, so that you can provide lookups on the fields that the users need, display only the data that is useful, and allow selection of records directly from the search. The E1 Search can be used in almost any application or functional area - this session will be based in Distribution applications, but that's a limitation of the time we have and not the tool itself!

In this session, you will learn how TruGreen partnered with Navisite to implement the Purchase Order approval process through Mobile apps for enhanced flexibility and efficiency. TruGreen worked on this solution with Navisite as the original out-of-box solution through Mobile App from Oracle was removed from the Apple and Andriod play store for versions IOS 14 and above. This was a huge impediment for TruGreen as they had invested on a new AIS server and were not able to use it. Navisite worked with TruGreen to custom develop a Mobility solution that is user friendly and flexible. The solution is designed to run on both platforms iOS and Android.

This is the newest enhancement in Procurement that makes the receiving process more efficient and faster by enabling the user to update lot details and location when the items are in the receipt route.

Almost every software project starts out with a commitment to "implement the base software", and delivering on this commitment in Sales Order Management means that we often need to get creative with how applications are used to meet business requirements. In this session I'll look at how we can extend the functionality of standard solutions, use UDOs for more robust search options, and leverage some rarely used programs to deliver optimal system processes and avoid enhancements.
