JDE Insider’s Secret: Using the Oracle Comparison Tool to Compare Multiple JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications or Tools Releases

The Oracle Comparison Tool will help you understand the differences between separate JD Edwards EnterpriseOne releases so you can decide if applying the release would be beneficial.

Description

Are all JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications and tools releases equal?  Do you need to apply every new release?

It can be hard to keep track and schedule the time to implement and update your JD Edwards systems for every update issued by Oracle.  And not every release will pertain to the applications and tools you use.

The Oracle Comparison Tool enables you to understand the impact of a release and decide whether the benefits justify the effort and disruption to apply it.  Or whether you can wait and apply a future release with more significant impacts to your systems and business.

Resolution

The Oracle Comparison Tool allows JD Edwards customers to select 2 releases to compare and see what benefits can be gained by upgrading.
