Frequently Asked Questions

Why should we work with an Oracle Business Partner?

The benefit for customers in using Oracle's recognised and certified partners is a matter of knowing that they are keeping their skills, knowledge and therefore competency current with Oracle's products. Partners are able to advise and implement the most up-to-date solutions for the customer, something that other less informed implementers and system integrators would not be able to do

What is an Oracle Certified Advantage Partner?

Do we have to change our Financial system?

The Financial application is considered to be the foundation of the JD Edwards system. If the Finance application does not form part of the implementation, interfaces to any third-party finance system will have to be written which is time-consuming, costly and technically very difficult. More importantly, the advantages of having one pre-integrated system will be lost.
