Hi Kim,

There is some documentation inside BPCS - if you type DOC at a menu this
goes to a menu where you can print out a logic manual and runbooks for each
module in BPCS. If there seems to be nothing there it means you need to
generate the index (only takes a few minutes).
Unbeaten Path also have great manuals, the Overview manual gives you the ERP
background as well. Their website is http://www.unbeatenpathintl.com/ and
they also work with JDEdwards.
Al  Mac on this list has lots of documentation around BPCS, I'm sure he'll
supply the references.
There is an ERD that comes with ASSET, SSA's code generator, I may have it
somewhere. Which version of BPCS are you working with? V6, V8, or maybe v4
or even V5?
I also have a great PC package which contains all the file relationships for
a version, and you can get this from these guys, http://www.essltd.org/ or
e-mail tony.cregg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hope this helps,

Clare
