REVIEWS:

My name is Colin Jensen. I work for the Regina Public School Board (www.rbe.sk.ca), based in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. We have been an E-Business Suite customer since 1999. We have approximately 250 self service users, and 20 core users. The modules we use are: AP, AR, GL, Cash Mgmt, Order Mgmt, INV, PO, Iproc.

I wanted to provide you with some comments on your books: “the little r12 upgrade guide” – the first one, which goes to R12.0.6, and the second one, which goes to R12.1.2.

We upgraded our 11.5.9.2 to R12.1.1 in December, 2009, and went live Jan 1, 2010. I purchased your first book at the Collaborate ’09 conference. We used this book as a guide to doing our upgrade. The book was an invaluable tool for us for our upgrade. It provides excellent step-by-step, detailed information on the upgrade process. I think it would be a great asset to anyone who will be doing an Oracle E-Business Suite upgrade from 11i to R12.
