Dear group members! First and foremost, I hope you and your family stay well and healthy in this time. Attached you can find global Infor response to COVID-19 and with this announcement I would also like to add some details about d/EPM status and future events.
Our every day job is to support you and your business and nowadays it is more critical than ever. This is why I am so happy that our team released d/EPM version 12.0.8 just couple of weeks ago. There are many great improvements which allow you to make business decisions faster and more effective - extended connectivity with improvements in relational modeling and ability to report on your transactional data even in MT Cloud. Introduction of Workforce Budgeting in the cloud to better manage your company expenses, and multiple improvements in B&P business application management. We also released and made series of webinars of latest Excel Integration to you, our user group, in December, and then more technical deep dive for Infor Consultants few weeks ago and later to our partners last week. So if you have any questions about how can you enhance your financial analysis with d/EPM and MS Excel, please check our User group call recording and either ask your account manager about connecting to our consultants for more details or speak with our Infor partner network to find latest details around latest features of Excel Integration and how you can start using it. For more details of 12.0.8, please also check the latest recording in this very user group or just review overall what's new presentation.
We also had great session with Mike Kalinowski on our latest User Group call in February where we discussed the advantages of collaboration of d/EPM with Infor OS platform and, specifically, Data Lake. If you missed this meeting, you can always review the recording and ask us any questions here, in InforCommunities, or by sending a quick message.
It is essential for us to listen to you, our key users, and I feel it might be a great opportunity for us now to hear some of your ideas and improve our product in the most important areas. This is why we were looking forward to meeting you at our Inspire User Group meeting in London, which is, as you know, was unfortunately cancelled. I was hoping to move it to later date, but it looks like we might enjoy our home offices for some time. That's why we might come with a bigger virtual session with updates, stories, and open mic for you, community members. Please let me know if you would be interested in such event somewhere in May, so we can start organising it now!
However, another channel of delivering your requests are still here and live - this is Enhancement Request portal. Few most popular requests are already reviewed (and some of them already implemented!), more to come, so if you have your request in the ERS portal, please, make sure other customer know about it. Create a topic in ERS Discussions thread, raise it on the regular meetings or just ask us next time. This is great channel and I am often surprised to see how many great ideas are there! Thanks for using it!
Thanks again for being with us and remember that there is always a rainbow after rain, so we just need to wait a little bit!
