The Weitz Company adopts DWS’ latest JD Edwards testing product, Dimension Focus™
Higy Wycombe, UK (PRWEB UK) 14 January 2017 -- Having just completed an upgrade to Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Release 9.2 (JDE E1), The Weitz Company will use Dimension Focus™ to help them maintain and evolve their implementation of JDE E1.
Dimension Focus™ is a cloud-based Software-As-A-Service offering that helps customers get the most out of their investment in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. It achieves this by making it more cost effective and easy to stay up-to-date with the latest software available from Oracle JD Edwards.
Dimension Focus™ forensically analyzes the impact of any electronic software updates a customer might apply or program modifications a customer might make to their implementation of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. Thoroughly understanding the impact of each change event enables companies to better scope, plan and manage projects. Instead of having to test broad areas of the software that might be impacted by a change event, it is now possible to identify and test only the areas that have changed. By planning to test and then testing only what has changed, companies will find it easier to run more smaller projects. This in turn allows them to keep more up-to-date with the latest EnterpriseOne code being made available by Oracle JD Edwards.
Dimension Focus™ is unique to the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne market and its features include:
- It identifies exactly what needs testing and what does not need testing.
- It grades the impact for each object by analysing the dependencies at the event level and figures out the scale of the impact that applying the ESUs has had on each top level object.
- It creates a testing “heat map” to show the level at which the applications are affected and those that the customer needs to spend the most amount of effort testing.
DWS is confident that any company committed to JDE E1 will benefit from using the DWS testing products. For more information on the product call DWS on +44 (0) 1494 896600 or visit http://www.dwsconsultants.com/products.
