RE: [BPCS-L] ERP LX






Is it just me, or are there other developers out there who feel it will be 

preferable to walk in front of a bus rather that face a world where we 
have to modify AS/SET generated RPG ??!!

I still remember V4 !

RE: [BPCS-L] ERP LX






So far, the LX portion seems pretty stable. We encountered a couple issues
during implementation, but I believe if you are upgrading to the LX 
portion
only, shouldnt have too many problems. One issue is the use of ASSET.
8.3(base) was generated using ASSET, but all mods done afterward were done
to the ASSET-Generated RPG. If you chose to continue using ASSET, you are
kinda on your own in that SSA modifies the RPG code, and not ASSET, so you
wont be at the same source level. TO stay current you are forced to make
in-house mods to the RPG source. Because of the size of ASSET-generated 
RPG
code, some programs cannot be modified using the standard SEU because the
source members are too large.

We have chosen to interface 8.3 LX with the new FM module. The FM module 
is
actually Masterpiece(SSA bought Computer Associates). We did encounter 
some
problems initially interfacing with FM due to a learning curve. SSA
consultants, while having knowledge of LX, didnt have experience with FM. 
On
the FM side, those consultants, having come from C/A, didnt have 
experience
with LX....so there was a learning curve for all, consultants as well.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Jim

Jim,

While we are looking at the possibility of upgrading to the latest version
of BPCS we don't exactly want to be on the cutting edge.  Usually those on
the cutting edge get burned a little.  I'm simply looking for some input
on the overall stability of the application at large and the ease of
implementation.  We are currently at version 6.00.04.

Thank you

I am currently working on an ERP LX 8.3 install, the only one of which is
interfacing with the new FM module. What do you want to know?

Jim
