Modernizing Legacy ERP Analytics with Data Prep on AWS Join us for the latest DSC Webinar on August 15th, 2019 There are difficulties any time a role is left vacant within an organization. The difficulties are compounded when others have struggled with taking on the responsibilities because the person who previously filled the role had institutional knowledge that isn’t widely available. This is a common scenario faced by many organizations and it causes roadblocks in the reporting processes. However, B/A Products was able to overcome this by leveraging their data preparation solution to help modernize their legacy ERP systems. B/A Products has been able to cut a 6-12 month process of reformatting, restructuring and preparing data down to 2 months. Complex pattern matching and parsing of unstructured date that required lots of time an effort in hand coding has now been simplified and automated.
