As organizations modernize their enterprise systems, the shift from legacy ERPs like PeopleSoft and JD Edwards to Oracle Fusion Cloud represents a pivotal transformation in operational efficiency and strategic agility. This session explores real-world lessons from organizations that have successfully navigated this transition, highlighting the key drivers behind cloud adoption, common challenges encountered, and the strategies that enabled smoother implementation and user adoption. From change management and stakeholder alignment to data migration and process redesign, attendees will gain actionable insights into leading ERP transformations that deliver long-term value and resilience in a cloud-first world.

This presentation is for CIOs, IT leadership, project managers or product managers. When migrating your system to the cloud, you're likely going to engage the services of a vendor, systems integrator or implementation partner. This presentation will include best practices and lessons learned from the entire lifecycle of working with vendors to insure project success: negotiating SOWs, preparing your team, Project Management, identifying and mitigating risks, keeping things on track, go live and sustainment. We are in the process of migrating from Peoplesoft to Oracle (Fusion) Cloud Apps, but this presentation includes takeaways for any cloud implementation.

After several attempts and failures in 2017 and 2019, the State of Indiana and Oracle initiated a proof-of-concept project to move the state's PeopleSoft Financials and HCM applications infrastructures from the on-premises datacenter to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. In this session, we will walk through the journey from POC through stakeholder approvals to the planning for migration of PeopleSoft environments to OCI.

Attendees will hear about the lessons learned from the state's PeopleSoft OCI proof of concept project. We will discuss the challenges and objections raised by internal stakeholders and the data-driven responses that supported the ultimate decision to move forward with a cloud infrastructure strategy. The presentation will wrap up with an overview of the successes achieved to-date, the changes in operational responsibilities for the infrastructure providers involved in the project, and the future outlook for PeopleSoft applications for the state.

UX One Pages and UX One Object Cross References can be thought of as pre-built UDO bundled gifts from Oracle. These are free for JDE customers to download and use, but many customers haven’t yet taken advantage of these whether in whole pages or in parts (single objects on your own composed pages). Come to this session to see how to review the objects that are available, how to modify them to fit your data, how to manage them in the UDO Workbench, and finally how to use them on your own Composed Pages.

There are many companies who upgraded and had plans to begin folding in UDO’s into their business as they found opportunities but just haven’t gotten a chance to do so. This was the case for Denver Water. They originally upgraded to EnterpriseOne 9.2 in 2020. Since then they only took advantage of Composed Pages. Last year they began taking concerted efforts to use Cafe1, Personalizations, and Form Extensions to an amazing effect. In this session, you’ll see how Denver Water has removed the need for some custom reports and improved end user experience by creating these impactful UDO’s.
