Managing the Human Side of Change
Implementing change in an organization is tough. Even when the change is necessary and the right thing to do it can be met with resistance at all levels. Whether implementing a new audit program, ERP System, or attempting to re-make the entire organization due to a merger, the process can be painful.
Sadly, most organizational changes never fully realize the targeted value from their change initiative. While executives may declare success, the change often comes at a higher cost in both monetary and human capital.
Managing the Human Side of Change: An Introduction to the ADKAR Model presents an introduction to the ADKAR model as a tool to equip and train managers and supervisors in assisting their employees through the change process. Topics, such as executive sponsorship, communication, training, and managing resistance are presented.

Simple and Effective Cost Accounting Reporting for Oracle E-Business Systems
Over the years I've given several SQL reporting scripts to the Oracle Community, for reconciling inventory to the G/L, summary and detail transaction reports, inventory value reports and even multiple-ledger period open/close status reports. But in order for your Cost Accountants and staff to use them you had to take these SQL scripts and develop these reports using your own technical reporting tools, such as Oracle's BI Publisher. In partnership with Enginatics, I've published over 90 fully configured Cost Accounting Reports, ready to use as soon as you install Blitz Report. With parameters that automatically default and reports which naturally download into native Microsoft Excel. For any configuration, including Project Manufacturing (PJM) and Warehouse Management (WMS) and even when using Category Accounting. And several of these reports work with Process Manufacturing as well (Blitz also covers most Oracle Product Areas, as well as the Enterprise Command Centers or ECC).

Providing Capacity & TCO to Applications using VMware Software Memory tiering
VMware is well-positioned to use its virtualization platform to provide several benefits to its customers.
Through prior experiences with memory/page tracking mechanisms and supporting higher latency memory devices, VMware has a lead in providing these benefits and use the industry standard CXL and its software virtualization platform to provide improvements with TCO, application bandwidth, memory scale and capacity, and provide even more value with hardware accelerators. Several use-cases can be supported with a number of workloads that can directly take advantage of CXL without requiring any configuration changes. This session will walk the audience through the various CXL use-cases and then provide a software tiering use-case using a real-world database workload.

Leading Practices for PeopleSoft Selective Adoption
This presentation looks to provide a guide of Leading Practices for PeopleSoft Selective Adoption beginning with a detailed definition of PeopleSoft Selective Adoption and the related components. We will discuss how customers should organize their team and associated processes to take advantage of Oracle’s continuous delivery of PUM images including rolling out new functionality. We will discuss the Collection of PeopleTools that make up Selective Adoption: Change Assistant PeopleSoft Update Manager (PUM), PeopleSoft Test Framework (PTF), Data Migration Workbench, and Usage Monitor. Also, we will show actual reports used to do a comparative analysis of the PUM image releases to the current state PeopleSoft image in production including a cross comparison with the PeopleTools version that needs to be included to considered in the process.

The Mysterious World of Oracle Financial Reporting
Long gone are the days of the siloed financial systems. Oracle Fusion Financials and EPM Cloud now both fall under the umbrella of Oracle ERP Cloud. The new world of interconnected applications while providing us with many benefits also presents additional challenges. Increasingly Fusion Financials and EPM (Financial Close and Consolidation and Planning modules) are implemented hand in hand. When starting those joint implementations, the first thing on our minds is to setup the systems to talk to each other and to allow users the data entry – be it via journal entries, invoices, allocations – the list goes on. It is usually only at the end of the project when we shift our focus to how to get that data out of the system and to the users – preferably in as presentable and least labor-intensive process as possible. Luckily, Fusion Cloud ERP provides a myriad of reporting tools. Hence lays the challenge - which application and which tool is best suited to what task?

Stop the Madness - learn how to make Oracle application changes fast, reliably and compliant
Managing application changes in an Oracle E-Business Suite or PeopleSoft environment is not only challenging but, at times, maddening. The number of application modules, users, support personnel, business requirements, availability requirements, service level requirements, and financial and IT control requirements all work together to create challenges for those responsible for making and managing application changes.
The pressure to make application changes quickly to support production issues as well as support new and ever-changing business requirements sometimes creates resource, quality, and compliance issues. This situation is especially true in enterprises where the application change process is manual. For example, so-called short cuts sometimes create other issues since a critical step, such as not making the change in a non-production environment first and only migrating to production after appropriate testing and approval.
Join this session to discover how automation can empower your organization to make application changes fast, error free and compliant.
