    The calm before the storm

    Our major ERP upgrade comes to fruition at 8:00 am Monday morning.

    JDE Oneworld XE to Enterprise One.

    Project started, fitfully, in February.

    We've done a complete redesign of the security architecture.

    Go Live is 8:00 am Monday.

    Final ( final, final ) checks on the system, user and role security today.

    It's eerily quiet in my bit of the office. Team starting to look a bit lost with nothing major to work on.

    I remain confidant that it will all go tits up come Monday.

        Why would anyone want to continue to invest/upgrade JD Edwards is beyond me? Hopefully Oracle pull the plug on that junk soon and you get to reimplement something resembling a proper ERP.

            You have my sympathies.
