In this session, KS2 shares real-world insights from the field, highlighting lessons learned from a successful EnterpriseOne Release 25 upgrade completed with our client, RectorSeal.

This presentation will walk through each phase of the upgrade journey, giving attendees a clear understanding of:

Why Release 25 is worth the move — from user experience gains to new automation tools

How to scope and plan for a smooth, low-risk transition

E1 UDOs & Personalization: UDO Use Cases for Financials
Presented by Dave Cutler, Sr. JD Edwards Financial Consultant, KS2 Technologies
User Defined Objects (UDOs) in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne continue to be one of the most powerful — and underutilized — tools available to functional users. In this session, we’ll take a practical dive into how UDOs like Personal Forms, Form Extensions, Custom Layouts, Queries, and Grids can be applied directly within the Financials suite to improve usability and empower end users.
Building on previous sessions, this presentation explores new use cases in key financial areas including GL, AP, AR, Fixed Assets, and Address Book. We’ll demonstrate how even non-technical users can create and apply UDOs to enhance everyday workflows and reduce reliance on IT for minor enhancements.
You’ll learn:
-
The latest UDO tools and how they apply to Financials
-
Step-by-step walkthroughs of creating UDOs in real financial scenarios
-
Real-world examples that show the business value of applying personalization in finance
Unlocking Bonus Depreciation to Maximize Tax Savings
Presented by Brian Hanks, Functional Analyst, KS2 Technologies
Bonus Depreciation can be a powerful tax strategy for capital-intensive businesses — but only if your ERP is configured to support it. Under Section 168(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, businesses can deduct up to 100% of qualifying fixed asset costs in the year they’re placed in service. For companies using JD Edwards, unlocking these savings requires more than awareness — it demands the right setup.
In this session, KS2 will walk through how to operationalize Bonus Depreciation inside JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. We’ll use real-world examples from industries like construction, manufacturing, real estate, and logistics to show how clients have configured their systems to stay compliant, maximize deductions, and avoid costly pitfalls.
You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of:
-
Current tax law and phase-out timelines through 2026
-
What qualifies for Bonus Depreciation — and common misconceptions
-
How to configure JDE’s Fixed Assets module for multi-book depreciation and IRS compliance
-
Lessons learned from real implementations — including reporting tips and audit readiness
