Change Management Identify & Plan Change Management and Training issues Avoid customizations Training Strategy, Demos and hands-on user experience for edge cases in January completed 10-14 total days of system training, familiarization early in project to acquaint users with Cloud System “out of the box” functionality and get them used to new “best processes” Process based training plans downstream in project schedule Set Project expectations and governance to ensure that Customizations are viewed as a major Change Control to be avoided Use Oracle Consulting Familiarization Workshops to review key processes and associated use cases early; complete questionnaires: doing this up front with help us identify areas where workarounds, training, compromise is needed Use PaaS options as last option; this is considered an extreme measure to be avoided 11/9/2018 .

Integration Foundation Pack (IFP) Details Integration Foundation Pack (IFP) works as an ERP Cloud adapter for integrations.

Integration Patterns “IFP” implements below integration patterns for inbound and outbound flow. Integration patterns are mix-n-match of IFP implemented services in a pre-defined sequence. FBDI_IN  INBOUND Inbound using FBDI Integration without Call- back (Pull Pattern) HDL_IN  INBOUND Inbound using HDL Integration without Call- back (Pull Pattern) BI_OUT_SYNC OUTBOUND Outbound using BI Integration with Synchronous response (Pull Pattern) 11/9/2018 .
