Dear Listees,
Hello! We're three weeks from go-live on Xe 15.1 and wondering: Is anyone out there using Line of Business A/R in conjuction with manufacturing and distribution?
Or, more generally, is anyone live on Xe manufacturing and distribution and willing to admit it?
At our last Steering Committee meeting the president of the company got frustrated and challenge anyone to name just one company that is live on the software we're implementing. "Am I the first??!!!" (I won't quote the rest.) This follows his experience of JDE being unable to provide even one valid reference during pre-sales.
Line of Business, as we are using it anyway, is essentially an independent organizational structure between a company and a branch/plant. Currently one branch/plant cannot be in two lines of business, which violates the whole concept. This means Line of Business is not working as sold, although support says it is W.A.D. (working as designed). We didn't discover this until after financials went live with Line of Business.
We do have some indication through the account rep that something will be done, maybe a mod., but misery loves company and I'd appreciate hearing from fellow sufferers, if there are any. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Greg Rowe
