The June session will be presented by More4Apps, a leading software provider for Excel-based upload/download solutions for the Oracle Applications. David Wright will demonstrate item cost upload/download features and other manufacturing related features for these products. Should be interesting, and given the prior October 2008 session on Cost Update Challenges, may provide some help for us.
