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!

Inventory management and control will be made much more efficient and flexible by a coming soon feature that will allow availability and movement to be determined by a Location Hold field in the Location Master. This will eliminate the need to update individual item/lot/location records. For inventory planning, safety stock provides protection against unforeseen fluctuations in supply or demand. Another feature coming soon will eliminate the need to manually maintain safety stock values by providing the ability to have them calculated and populated by the system. Attend this session for a detailed preview of these upcoming new features.

Harness new E1 tools and architecture in your enterprise to reduce downtime. New functionality including virtual job queues, no downtime package deploys and kernels that reconnect can be leveraged separately or along with architecture solutions to greatly limit your system downtime.

System administration and Java patch management can be a daunting task when you manage a large set of servers. Join this session to learn how our internal JD Edwards DevOps team has been leveraging Chatbots to automate CNC system administration activities and Orchestrator for automating Java patching, which saves time and resources. Note: This session has a virtual presenter.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is a complex product and CNC is niche which has grown over the past 28 years or so into an enormous plant named Audrey which seems to be saying “Feed me!” Any CNC can get caught up in these tentacles and see their install or upgrade grind to a halt over numerous single point failures, nuances, and tribal knowledge items. This session will document an eclectic assortment some of these items, relevant to installs, upgrades, and configuration. Included and JAS server tweaks, fixes to back-end Enterprise server problems, Configurator UXone issues, and useful SQL solutions to JDE conundrums. This is a surface level survey of useful roadblock eliminators rather than an open heart surgery session into bare metal details.
