eprentise Consolidation software merges two or more database instances by automatically resolving database structures, data differences, and differences in business processes. The software automatically creates rules to merge data with the same name that has a different meaning, data with the same ID in multiple systems, and data that is identical across different instances. Custom rules can be created to override exceptions. The data is moved into the target instance in the right sequence to maintain the data integrity. The consolidated instance reduces support, maintenance, and processing costs, facilitates common business practices, and establishes standards across the enterprise while also providing a “single source of truth” for enterprise operations.

The Case for a Single, Consolidated Instance

In today’s volatile business climate, mergers and acquisitions are the norm. These company-wide contractions and consolidations often leave organizations struggling with disparate versions—or instances—of their ERP software. As a result, this creates tremendous inefficiencies, duplication and inconsistencies across the entire enterprise. Ultimately, this can impact bottom-line profits, as well as hinder strategic decision-making, since C-level executives lack a single, consolidated, real time snapshot of the performance of their organization.

While the business benefits of having a single consolidated instance are clear, most executives recognize that the traditional reimplementation process to make that happen can be a daunting initiative. Whether the data is coming from two different companies or two different divisions of the same company, reimplementations are costly, resource intensive, and disruptive. At eprentise, we have a better solution.

eprentise Consolidation Software—Fast, Accurate, Proven

Consolidation software from eprentise allows companies to merge two or more instances of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) into a single, consolidated database instance that includes all of the data and history from the source instances.

Relying on its built-in knowledge base of Oracle EBS, eprentise software provides a streamlined, cost-effective way to consolidate different instances after a merger or acquisition or a move to a centralized data center. eprentise Consolidation software automates the process and generates all of the required code, standardizing data, resolving duplicates, aligning set-up parameters, and synchronizing business processes across multiple implementations of EBS. The result is a single database that synthesizes all of the source EBS instances, fully aligning them with the current business strategy.

Designed for the Non-Technical User

With its drop-down lists, rule creation templates, and mapping tools, eprentise software enables non-technical business users to make changes without understanding the underlying technical details. All code is automatically generated by the software. The business user does not need to have technical knowledgeof the EBS version, specific modules, or SQL coding. The system’s built-in error checking capability identifies exceptions, alerts the user, and implements a resolution, all while maintaining a full audit trail. If, after a test run, the results are not exactly as desired, users can modify their previous choices to achieve the preferred final design for the target EBS instance.
