Reorganization

MDA-Merge-Filter-Changeeprentise Reorganization software allows companies to make a variety of major configuration changes to better reflect their business structure and operations in their Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS). Types of reorganizations include changing calendars, moving operating units from one set of books (ledger) to another, moving legal entities to a different set of books (ledger), and merging operating units, business groups, or inventory orgs.

eprentise software relies on its built-in knowledge base of EBS to provide a streamlined, highly cost effective way to accomplish these reorganizations. Beginning with a metadata analysis that analyzes all of the relationships in the entire EBS, eprentise software “learns” all of the changes that will be required to implement the reorganization. From the user perspective, EBS reorganizations, despite their immense technical complexity, appear as a simple series of selections from drop down menus that reflect the existing organization of the EBS andallow the user to specify the desired configuration changes required for the reorganization.

eprentise Reorganization software automates the process and generates all of the code needed to effect the reorganization. The process retains all history and configuration data while realigning it properly in the reorganized EBS. eprentise Reorganization software is one of the most highly automated eprentise modules, allowing projects to be completed - including test runs - in a matter of weeks.

eprentise Reorganization Benefits

  • Low risk. No loss of history. No loss of data integrity.
  • Low cost and better results. The consulting or IT alternatives cost many times as much, take longer, and add risk of error and loss of most history.
  • Improved efficiency. Reorganization meets business, legal, or reporting requirements.
  • Improved corporate decision-making. The EBS is now organizationally aligned with the way that the company does business.

eprentise Reorganization Functions

  • Metadata analysis of all source and target instances.

    • Gap analysis of source and target configuration and structures
    • Drop-down lists with instance-specific data choices
  • Maintenance of data and history.
  • Seamless implementation of all types of desired reorganization.
  • Automatic integration of data into target organization or set of books (ledger).

Reorganization Features

Make changes to EBS without loss of history, without reimplementation, and without building bridges to reconcile. eprentise Reorganization software changes all the related data to simplify operations and reporting, increase transparency, and reduce the complexity of EBS.

Easy-to-use, eprentise software interfaces tightly with EBS.

Automatic features, no coding, designed for business users:

  • Initiate projects with drop down menus
  • Select type of reorganization to implement
  • Choose data to be changed from company-specific drop down choices without knowing table structures, data relationships, or SQL
  • Indicate intended organizational change via similar company-specific selection menus

Feel secure. All updates are done by the software, and its knowledge base maintains relational integrity. All code is software-generated. There is no dependence on a particular consultant or undocumented fixes. Reorganizations involve many thousands of columns - many not identified in the Oracle documentation - and eprentise software learns them all.

Automatically maintains a full audit trail.

Shortens the time to completion. Even with two or more test cycles, the time to completion can be weeks - not months or years.
