  • Subject: Y2K & End year zero
  • From: MacWheel99@xxxxxxx

We are all to be congratulated for doing a good enough job saving our 
collective companies from the Y2K cannon that no one wanted to tackle when it 
was only a Y2K gnat.  During the crisis, there were various "magic dates" 
posted as being occasions when problems might arise ... the whole 
non-technical world watched the date move from Dec 31, 1999 to Jan 01, 2000 
but that was one of only many "magic dates" when there might have been 
trouble.

Other ones were the first time we do end month & end year in year 00.  
Actually with the complexity of BPCS, I would have expected greater risk of 
strange stuff occurring with MRP planning dates.

As our end of 2000 approaches, my question is whether any other BPCS using 
companies have done their fiscal year end already & had no problems, or if 
anyone has done any pilot testing environment of what is ahead to confirm the 
software is working perfectly, with resepect to these Y2K uncertainties.

We are on 405 CD, and needed Rel-02 to be Y2K up to date.
