"The good psychic would pick up the phone before it rang. Of course it is possible there was no one on the other line. Once she said "God Bless you" I said, "I didn't sneeze". She looked deep into my eyes and said, "You will, eventually." And damn it if she wasn't right. Two days later I sneezed."
-- Ellen DeGeneres

Is anyone else having a difficult time making the ADFS requirement(s) by April of next year? We are a pretty technically advanced company, and with everything coming at us, I think we are going to be hard-pressed to make the date....Can we afford to risk it?

Data Conversions and Custom Interfaces in Infor CloudSuite
|
Very new to Lawson/Infor and Landmark technologies. We are implementing Infor Cloudsuite v11 MT for HCM and FSCM. I understand that Infor has removed the SQL Query/SQL Update nodes from IPA for all multi-tenant products.
I was hoping we could build IPAs for Conversions and integrations. What other tools are recommended for these needs? I did not think ISD tool is recommended for Conversions as it does not provide an option for prevalidations prior to the final load into the transaction tables?
For inbound interfaces, we would ideally need something like IPA that would poll on a directory and trigger the process to update data in the transaction tables based on the data file. Also, in case of outbound, extract the data, create a data file in a predefined format, encrypt and SFTP the file.

Multiple users in AM system?
|
We would like to have multiple individuals creating asset's at the same time. Our current process starts in the AC system, by doing the following: AC10.1, AC10.3, AC169, AC160. We then go over to the AM system and do the following: AM15.3, AM115, AM20.4, and AM170. The main issue we see with this process is if multiple users are using AC169, AC160, AM115 and AM170 this could post assets when they are not ready i.e. in service date not updated, prior depreciation, etc. With this said, is there a way we can prevent this from occurring to allow multiple users to create assets at once? This would greatly increase our efficiency if possible.

Why organizations should regularly assess the KPIs they track
|
Key performance indicators are an essential part of data governance because they help determine the worthiness of the captured information. Data that lacks sufficient, measurable value could be misleading, and even damage a company’s reputation.
