In this episode, Chandra and Paul cover the latest JD Edwards (JDE) product updates, focusing on the recent release of tools and applications Update 26. They discuss the significance of aligning release numbers for simplicity, the nature of maintenance packs, and the importance of stability over rushing enhancements. The conversation then turns to enterprise automation, specifically the use of the process modeler to identify bottlenecks and drive adoption. The hosts emphasize the need for deeper analysis beyond surface-level process mapping and encourage collaboration between IT and business units to uncover root causes and find lasting solutions. Both hosts highlight the value of continuous learning, empowering teams to explore new tools, and partnering with business stakeholders for successful implementation.
