@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialA successful go-live isn't simply “We went live on time.”
What business outcome was the implementation supposed to achieve? How will you measure it? Who agreed that defines success?

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialReporting requirements aren't something to address at the end of an implementation. If users need to report by something, your design needs to capture it.
Reports can drive design.

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialIf a test fails, “it doesn't work” isn't enough.
What failed?
What was expected?
What actually happened?
What must change?
Specific feedback creates actionable solutions.

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialA Process Playback shouldn't be a software demo, it's an opportunity to prove the solution meets the requirement—and get specific about anything that doesn't.
We talk about lessons like this on www.youtube.com/@afternoonsw...
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialBefore changing Oracle configuration, first prove Oracle is actually the problem.
If the system works when the correct process is followed, you may have a process or ownership problem, not a configuration problem.

#OracleFusion
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.social“We've always done it that way” isn't a requirement.
An Oracle implementation is an opportunity to understand WHY a process exists, not simply reproduce it in a new system.

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialWhen someone says "it isn't working", first try to prove that it is.
If Oracle works, the real issue may be the process, ownership, or communication—not configuration.

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialNot every Oracle problem is an Oracle problem. Before changing configuration or building another customization, ask: Are we solving the right problem?

@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialWhat tells you an Oracle Fusion implementation succeeded six months after go-live?
Faster close? Fewer spreadsheets? Better reporting? Happier users?
Which measure matters most to your team, and why?
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialYour Chart of Accounts shouldn't just satisfy Accounting.
It should support reporting, security, projects, procurement, integrations, and future growth.
A well-designed COA enables everything that follows.
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialMost implementation issues aren't technical.
They're design decisions made in isolation.
Our latest video explores why cross-functional design changes everything.
📺 youtu.be/rgzwRVth6AU
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialIf Finance isn't involved in HCM design workshops, don't be surprised when payroll costing, organizational hierarchies, and reporting become redesign projects later.
Cross-functional design matters.
@afternoonswithaces.bsky.socialWhat's the biggest Oracle Fusion implementation mistake you've seen?
• Poor requirements?
• Weak testing?
• Lack of stakeholder engagement?
• Something else?
I'm curious what others have experienced.
