    Oracle EBS Data Loading Using appLOAD™ at LifeWay Christian Resources

    by Austin Davis, Vice President of Marketing, Chain-Sys

    LifeWay Christian Resources is a religious nonprofit organization and is an entity of the Southern Baptist Convention.

    LifeWay produces Bibles, church literature, books, music, audio and video recordings, church supplies and Internet

    services. The ministry operates 154 LifeWay Christian Stores across the country. LifeWay’s home office is in Nashville,

    Tennessee, where about 1250 employees work.

    LifeWay has successfully implemented Oracle EBS Financials, Projects, APC, Inventory, Purchasing, Order

    Management and Advanced Pricing modules for its global operations. LifeWay is on Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS)

    version 11.5.10.2, and their production database size is 1200 GB.

    Data loading activities performed by LifeWay:• Item creation and update.

    • Item categories, item catalogs and item cross reference creation and update.

    • PLM: Advanced Products Catalog creation.

    • Bills of material creation and update.

    • New Customer creation and update.

    • AR Invoice, Credit Memos and Debit memo creation.• AR Cash Receipt application with or without the invoice numbers.

    • Project Budget creation.

    • Projects with tasks and key member creation and update.

    • Price List creation and update.

    • Sales order processing.

    The Struggle with DataLoaderManual mass data loading/

    maintenance within Oracle EBS can

    be tedious and very time consuming.

    LifeWay utilized DataLoader for

    performing data loading as an

    alternative to manual methods. The

    DataLoader tool took a lot of time and

    still could not provide a fool-proof and

    robust solution. Amy Goolsby recalls

    that for about 1500 items loading, it

    required constant monitoring and

    took two weeks with eight computers

    in the conference room. This time

    does not include the data loader

    spread sheet preparation time.

    LifeWay chooses appLOAD™LifeWay evaluated and selected appLOAD™ productivity tool from Chain-Sys Corporation for its data loading

    activities. appLOAD™ is a new generation data conversion tool for Oracle EBS 11i/R12. The tool signicantly reduces

    project timelines and cuts costs. It is extremely useful during implementation or reimplementation and for routine

    production data maintenance. It is very easy to use, does not need programming and supports all open interfaces

    assistance. With appLOAD™, there is no programming required for any of your data conversion needs.

    Productivity gains using appLOAD™Within a week of installing appLOAD, the business users started using the

    tool very effectively for their data loads. Amy Goolsby remarks, “What I

    like about appLOAD is how fast it is. appLOAD executes the data loadingprocesses in the background with no baby sitting needed. I can do the same

    task in four hours that used to take two weeks.”  

    David Jamieson of LifeWay says, “The projected return on investment

    provided through use of the appLOAD application easily justified the cost

    of the product. We have identified uses that impact all business areas

    within Oracle E-Business Suite. Chain-Sys has been extremely responsive

    in identifying the most efficient uses of the tools and responding to our

    questions as we have begun to use the tool.”  

    appLOAD™ Benefits:• Time and cost savings.

    How to Eat an Elephant, One Byte at a Time

    by Helene Abrams, CEO, eprentise

    The elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about is the Oracle® E-Business Suite (EBS) that supports

    business-critical operations but threatens the organization’s ability to respond to change. Access to real-time

    corporate information is critical to performance, but more important is a company’s ability to analyze and make

    sense of giant quantities of data and to get disparate parts of the business to work together.

    Enterprise resource planning systems like EBS are cumbersome, overgrown and poorly suited to handle recent

    business changes and certainly not the challenges of big data proliferating from many diverse sources. It’s a giant,

    elephant-sized task that begs for an evolved relationship between data and ERP. Reducing this complexity by

    remodeling is one way EBS organizations are preparing to fight the big data war.

    The importance that businesses and analysts are placing on the relatively new concept of big data shows that the need

    for organizations to remodel their EBS systems has never been clearer. In many organizations, support of outdated

    configurations and existing implementations of EBS are consuming upwards of 65 percent of the IT budget. Smart

    organizations need to become leaner and more agile — a potentially difficult goal with an EBS environment that is

    inflexible, expensive to maintain and consumes the resources needed to implement new strategies, undertake new

    initiatives or reorganize the business.

    Remodeling in the context of ERP systems is restructuring the existing EBS data without reimplementing. Remodeling

    EBS uses software to change the original setups such ledgers (and sets of books), legal entities, operating units,

    inventory organizations, calendars and charts of accounts, among others. Companies are eating the elephant one

    byte at a time by successfully using remodeling tools to reduce maintenance costs (freeing up resources for new

    initiatives), to add business value (by enabling the implementation of new strategies) and to streamline operations.

    Remodeling EBS aligns enterprise applications with current business processes and reduces the complexity of the

    underlying data, enabling EBS to better understand the purpose of information before it ever reaches the database.

    Science fiction? No. Remodeling does, however, promote — and provide — an adjustment of perception.

    A global business today needs to shift its operational focus from being able to quickly respond to change to being able to

    quickly enable change; from deriving meaning from data once it’s in EBS (with third-party business intelligence toolsor analytics packages) to remodeling EBS so that its underlying structure provides the meaning. Remodeling is the

    enabler that reduces complexity and makes EBS data complete, consistent and correct — everywhere in the enterprise.

    It sounds like a drastic change in time management and corporate performance — too good to be true, maybe even

    magic — but remember that before ERP systems were around, we managed business operations by paper. Moving

    to ERP systems was not an evolution of the corporation — it was a revolution, a giant leap forward for business.

    Remodeling is a transformative revolution of similar scope that provides a method for eating the EBS elephant

    one byte at a time, allowing you to reduce the complexity of EBS at its core so that your business can interact with

    information in an entirely new way and compete successfully in an increasingly data-driven economy.

    About eprentise

    Frustrated by Losing Client ADI with Migration to

    Oracle E-Business Suite R12 or Excel 2007?

    by Chris Meyer, Managing Director Americas, Excel4apps

    As organizations consider upgrading to Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Release 12 or MS Excel 2007, they face a

    dilemma in how to avoid interruptions in reporting from the General Ledger (GL) without Oracle’s Client Application

    Desktop Integrator (ADI). Used for years to produce ad-hoc Financial Statement Generator (FSG) reports, Client ADIwas replaced in R12 by two browser-based applications: Web ADI and Report Manager for publishing FSGs into

    Excel. As nancial professionals explore these new applications, they discover gaps with the familiar Client ADI

    functionality, leading them to consider reporting alternatives.

    Time Consuming ProcessesClient ADI allows users to produce FSG reports, while the R12 Report Manager stores point-in-time reports. It was

    not designed as an ad hoc enquiry tool and does not allow users to easily define or modify reports. Users can submit

    ad-hoc FSG or standard reports, but they must re-create each template in a special editor before its first use. Report

    templates are built with MS Word and are not as flexible as the previous Excel editor. This and other new requirements

    result in a lengthy process with more steps than in Client ADI.

    For complex reports, users relate that R12 submission takes up to ve times longer per report than with Client ADI.

    Reports must be saved in a repository, where chronological instead of alphabetical storage makes access to recent

    reports difficult and counterintuitive. Clearing out reports is also time consuming and requires running a batch job

    to delete old reports.

  • 8/17/2019 2012bg

    9/36

    Drill Down LimitationsClient ADI allows drill down to transactions for amounts in an FSG report published to Excel. The drill down feature

    displays journal entries associated with the amount queried and supports further drilling to related sub-ledger transaction

    details. Users have found the “Account Analysis and Drilldown” function in Report Manager cumbersome and report an

    increase in time required to examine data. Sorting and searching data are also time consuming and limited in scope.

    Instant Access to GL Data Via Oracle-Excel Link

    Organizations that have anticipated or encountered reporting issues from losing Client ADI with R12 or Excel 2007migrations have turned to GL Wand from Excel4apps. Because it delivers real-time GL data via a direct link between

    Oracle and Excel, GL Wand dramatically cuts steps from the report creation process — even beyond Client ADI.

    Exploiting their Excel skills, financial users easily create and modify standard and ad-hoc reports with GL Wand’s

    familiar Excel interface. These reports are similar to those from Oracle methods, yet the process is faster and more

    intuitive. Finance users can quickly drill into sub-ledger transaction details with GL Wand, which utilizes Oracle’s

    security settings to maintain appropriate data accessibility. Users report that submitting ad-hoc reports that took 15

    minutes with Client ADI and 45 minutes with Report Manager take less than ve minutes with GL Wand, leaving

    more time for valuable analysis and less time for frustration.

    EMC Saves $1 Million with Informatica Application Retirement Solutions

    by Julie Lockner, Vice President ILM Product Marketing, Informatica Corporation

    “Using Informatica, EMC has been able to rapidly retire multiple candidate modules over a three-day period,

    including Accounts Receivable, Inventory and General Ledger,”  says Ramesh Razdan. “It is remarkably easy to retire

    legacy or custom applications, manage our data growth and application portfolio safely and efficiently, and ensure

    the business has complete access to the data with Informatica Data Archive.” 

    When a business has acquired more than 40 software and services companies over the course of four years, there

    are bound to be growing pains — especially when it comes to managing data. The time had come to consider

    consolidating infrastructure by retiring the legacy applications and data associated with its acquisitions. It was

    against this backdrop that EMC standardized on Informatica for its application retirement solution. Using the high

    performance and scalable Informatica Data Archive, the information storage company has embarked on a long-

    term application retirement strategy and anticipates saving up to hundreds of terabytes of storage and more than

    $1 million resulting in a complete payback in less than a year.

    Acquired More Than 40 Companies in Four YearsEMC has helped thousands of customers to introduce flexible, scalable and secure information infrastructures and, in

    turn, release the power of their information. To strengthen EMC’s core business and extend its market to new areas, thecompany has, over the past several years, acquired more than 40 software and services companies. This has presented

    some formidable challenges when it comes to managing the exponential growth in the company’s data.

    The acquisition of large organizations, like Legato Software, has contributed to this growth. As part of an over-

    arching strategy to reduce costs, free up resources and improve overall efficiency, the company’s IT organization

    turned to Informatica and its data archive platform to retire and decommission the redundant legacy Legato

    infrastructure and Oracle Applications instances. The goal was to retire approximately 21 Oracle E-Business Suite

    and custom applications.

    Safely and Easily Archive Oracle DataEMC’s readiness to use Informatica Data Archive was based on the fact the company’s IT team could safely and

    easily archive its data — including master, reference and transactional data — and then have its business userscontinue to access it at any point in the future. EMC kicked off the project by retiring its largest Oracle E-Business

    Suite 11.5.8 modules, including Accounts Receivable, General Ledger and Inventory.

    EMC leveraged Informatica’s data model discovery capability and pre-built accelerators for Oracle E-Business Suite

    to accelerate the project timeline. The combination of mined and pre-built application metadata allowed Informatica

    Data Archive to relocate complete transactions and, in the case of EMC, retire the entire application data in a matter

    of three days.

    The data was archived to the EMC Centera, a content addressable storage (CAS) archival storage system. Once

    archived, data was discoverable using Informatica’s data discovery portal, which allows retired data to be viewed

    from an application-independent interface while providing the original Oracle E-Business Suite application user

    interface look and feel. Additionally, an overall 20:1 data compression ratio in the optimized le archive format

    was achieved.

  • 8/17/2019 2012bg

    11/361

    “We are very impressed by the flexibility and rich functionality of the Informatica solution,”  says David Atkins, from the

    Oracle Global Solutions Group, EMC. “Retired application data is stored in a highly compressed immutable file archive

    format, which significantly reduces the size of the data. Despite this, data can still be easily accessed through the data

    discovery portal for searching and browsing and using any third party reporting or Business Intelligence tools.” 

    “Over the next few years, we expect to save

    up to hundreds of terabytes of storage, one

    million dollars, and improve IT efficiencyby removing redundant applications

    accumulated through acquisition and

    decommissioning legacy systems that are

    no longer vital to the business. As a result,

     Informatica allows us to free up valuable

     IT personnel to focus on higher value

    activities,”  Ramesh Razdan explains. “It will

    also result in a complete payback on the

     Informatica investment within six months.” 

    The retirement enabled EMC to safely decommission

    legacy applications while guaranteeing transactional andreferential integrity with easy access to archived data. Software

    maintenance costs were eliminated and previously allocated

    servers and storage was repurposed to more business-

    critical IT projects. Finally, the solution significantly boosted

    staff efficiency and reduced time and resources devoted to

    application maintenance tasks.

    Tulane University Partners with IT Convergence for a Record-Speed Upgrade

    Founded in 1834, Tulane is one of the most highly regarded and selective independent research universities in the

    United States and offers undergraduate, graduate and professional degrees in liberal arts, science and engineering,

    architecture, business, law, social work, medicine and public health, and tropical medicine.

    Tulane University had a big goal — to upgrade its Oracle Financials

    solutions to Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Release 12.1.3 in only

    five months. Normally, this kind of proposal would be quite an

    endeavor, since the project required advanced planning. However, IT

    Convergence (ITC) completed the project in three months — ahead of

    schedule and under budget.

    Tulane had previously partnered with IT Convergence in 2005 during the hurricane Katrina crisis for temporary

    hosting and managed services, so they knew of ITC’s expertise in Oracle. In 2011, ITC offered Tulane an integral

    solution: to rst upgrade its chart of accounts and then proceed with the Oracle EBS R12 upgrade. The ITC team

    worked closely with Tulane University’s CTO and vice president of finance to make this project a success.

    As part of the project, the ITC’s Nearshore Development team reviewed several hundred RICE components to

    make sure they were successfully upgraded to Oracle R12 and had full functionality. This was made possible by the

    development team’s ability to match U.S. working hours and to be readily available when needed.

    Given the success of the Financials upgrade, Tulane called again upon ITC to deliver a fresh implementation of

    several modules of Oracle HRMS. Tulane University is one of the largest employers in New Orleans. Implementing a

    dynamic HR system allows them to now actively manage one of their biggest assets — their employees.

    About IT Convergence

     IT Convergence is the premier, global provider of Oracle enterprise

    solutions. Our mission is to improve business processes through better

    use of technology, which we do through our consulting, development &

    testing, education, enterprise cloud and managed services. Based in North America, we have an international business presence in India, China,

    OAUG Ambassadors Enliven Robust and Diverse Users Community

    When the OAUG Ambassador Program launched on February 1, 2012, the OAUG’s leadership hoped it would help

    organizations realize a higher return on their OAUG membership investment. The program was developed to ensure

    that each individual in a member organization is aware of and accessing the free resources available through the

    OAUG website and the discounted education available at OAUG events.

    As this issue of OAUG Buyer’s Guide was going to print, the OAUG was

    pleasantly surprised that more than 430 individuals had volunteered to

    act as their organization’s Ambassadors and more than 100 attended the

    first-ever Ambassador Informational Meeting and Webinar on April 23

    during COLLABORATE 12. Another 65 had distributed the quarterly Benefits

    Reminder Email to their colleagues within days of receiving it to ensure

    they were familiar with the latest-and-greatest free resources available

    through their organization’s OAUG membership.

    Jim Collison, the OAUG Ambassador for Gallup Technologies, attended the rst-ever OAUG Ambassador Meeting

    during COLLABORATE 12. “The OAUG Ambassador Program has an incredible opportunity to change the way

    individual organizations see the benefits of an OAUG membership as well as enhance the networking and mind

    sharing that happens inside a company that has a strong ambassador. An ambassador can now play the role of

    user group champion behind the corporate firewall and bring to light training and education sessions, as well as the

    value of social media oerings, that might have been underutilized in the past,” said Collison.

    OAUG Ambassadors are helping spread the word that an unlimited number of their organization’s employees have access

    to OAUG resources once membership is set up, rather than each individual paying for benefits. Ambassadors also review

    their list of employees in the OAUG Member Database to ensure everyone has a member login. Lastly, Ambassadors

    ensure that their colleagues know how to access all of the free, online education using their member logins.

    “OAUG Ambassadors have exceeded expectations from the beginning of this program, increasing the average number

    of participants with active logins from 12 to 24 per organization in less than three months,” said OAUG Executive

    Director Steven Hughes. “We expect the Ambassador Program to further increase ROI for member organizationsand result in a more robust and diverse community of Oracle Applications users and solution providers to enhance

    user-led networking and education.”

    As a thank you for their participation, OAUG Ambassadors who attended COLLABORATE 12 received an Ambassador

    air for their conference badge, a wristband for specialty “Rumbassador” and “Voluntini” cocktails at the Wednesday

    Evening Reception and exclusive OAUG Ambassador temporary tattoos to show off their VIP status.
