Lori,
payroll does (after 15 months) run perfectly here on B733.2 SP 13.1. Our JDE
payroll consultant is so pleased he's doing summersaults. As for putting on
more ESU's I sense your fears. I have put in over 130 ESU's just for Payroll
alone. Everytime I put in a new Payroll ESU it would fix the problem but it
would break something else. However, eventually all the problems went away
(15 months and 150+ Payroll ESU's later). Luckily, JDE has incorporated most
of the ESU into one mandatory ESU so you should only need to install 10-15
ESU's.
If you run payroll then I suggest that you check the HR/Payroll section of
Breaking News in the JDE Knowledge Garden. This has always been my inside
source as to 'what else ain't working'. Here you'll find specific SAR's for
any Payroll install on > SP13.1.
I would also use the new Software Update Centre to search on all ESU's after
the build date of the mandatory ESU's. It's a tedious process but most
likely you'll find a SAR and an ESU that describes your problem. I haven't
needed to do this yet as everything seems to be working fine.
My reasons for going to SP 13.1 were not really for Payroll but for the
improvement in stability, development tools fixes and the roll back of the
ESU enhancement. I am planning to go to SP 15.1 at the end of June (one
month after it comes out). I don't really have a choice as I need a header
file fix for Vertex. I could get this as a one off for the current SP but I
also have other issues that are corrected in SP 15.X.
Good Luck and I hope you get paid on time.
