Easing The EnterpriseOne Learning Curve

In the past year or so I have been training a very good new CNC Administrator. He’s been working with IT and World for quite a long time and is very good at picking up new things.

In doing this, sometimes I have to think back and try and see things from a more innocent, un-jaded view. Also, I try to think about what has helped me the most in learning this complex, overly-convoluted architecture?

There are the obvious answers:

Experience
Terminology (this was huge for me)
EnterpriseOne SysAdmin classes
Loyal participation in JDEList
Etc.

However, one of the things that helps me the most when troubleshooting an issue that can’t be resolved by the normal logs and error messages is…

having a development background and the E1 developer classes.

Why? Well, as a Systems Administrator, I think I see how the system works a little better than a developer. As a developer, I am able to use the tools to logically follow the process of an application or UBE from beginning to end.
