Centura Health Lawson 8.x Upgrade Project Structure

Project Phases Planning Design Development Deployment These phases are a combination of what Lawson recommends and the Microsoft methodology.

Planning Phase Kick-off Meeting with Teams Risk Assessment & Mitigation Differences Training Technical Upgrade Training Hardware Requirements Differences Training was conducted in Lawson’s Training Data.

Design Phase Application Exploration (by Core Team) Conference Room Pilot Preparation 1st Pass of Upgrade to be used in CRP Conference Room Pilot Risk Assessment & Mitigation Application Exploration was also conducted in Lawson’s Training Data, but would have been much more effective with Centura’s data. Programming has begun at this point…for CRP programs and then for others. Conference Room Pilot – 1 week per Core Team. Scheduling around getting everything into GL for close. CRP will not contain any testing of external interfaces only those internal to Lawson.

Development Phase 2nd Pass of Upgrade and System Testing 3rd Pass of Upgrade and System Testing Create Cutover Plan End User Training Plan Developed Risk Assessment & Mitigation Second Pass Testing will include all interfaces external to Lawson. All programming will need to be completed prior to our Third Pass. End User Training Plan Functionality between 7.2 & 8.x Navigation in browser

Deployment Phase Readiness Assessment End User Training Risk Assessment & Mitigation Final Pass into Production

Topics for Discussion Third Party Reporting Report Smith & Access Browser Access (NED vs. XML) Time frame for Cutover Hardware Considerations Functionality Differences Third Party Reporting Separate Core Team (members from all 3 core teams) Test daily/monthly/yearly production Report Smith and Access reports Repairing broken reports Test Lab Browser Access (Ned vs. XML) Hardware Considerations Disk Sizer Mark Deutsh IBM Review Can Oracle 8.1.7 make the upgrade more efficient timewise? New machine scheduled for summer. Functionality Differences HR/PR – Not much – Exchange – CAN Currency is the big one – doesn’t affect us MM/AP – Matching re-write FIN – (AM) Balances stored by periods, Reinstate Disposals, Mass Adjustment (GL) Templates for subaccounts and Aus. Provides efficient way to add Aus and sub accts to another company. – this really doesn’t help us…but is a nice feature Ability to drill from AU to only those accounts that are active for that AU.
