Sep 14th 2010
1:00pm EDT
During this webinar, a JD Edwards expert discusses the common challenges companies face with financial reporting and presents effective strategies for improving management reporting and compliance. The presenter will discuss how to identify the root cause of reporting issues and effective solutions for the “Top 5” financial reporting challenges, including best practices for JD Edwards ERP systems and Chart of Accounts re-design and conversion.
You know you are getting robust management reporting, if you can answer YES to all of these questions:
· Do you have 100% confidence in the accuracy of your reported financial information?
· Can you easily slice-and-dice your business data by regions, divisions, products, markets, etc.?
· Are you able to produce financial statements directly from your general ledger?
· Do you close your books at month-end as quickly as required?
· Can you easily integrate a newly acquired company without redesigning your COA?
If your system could use improvement in any of these areas, you and your colleagues should join GL Associates, business systems consultants for over 30 years, for our FREE webinar:

The fall of the financial markets in 2008 caused asset management and securities trading firms to find new zeal in managing their SEC compliance and trading risk. This requires real-time analysis of many streams of data such as security prices, executions, cash-management, trade reporting, confirmations, contra-party lock-in messages, and clearing info, etc. Proper regulatory and risk management can only be derived when all of these streams are analyzed in parallel and the deep multi-faceted business events occurring are recognized. A key enabling technology for this analysis is Oracle’s CEP software. This session covers CEP in the financial industry to enable risk management and compliance, common pitfalls in maintaining large rule databases and the application of Bayesian classification to simplify rules to provide more human-like interpretation of complex events.
