What EBS-to-Fusion Migrations Get Wrong on Security

Oracle EBS Customizations: Keep, Modernize, or Replace?

Many Oracle E-Business Suite customers rely on customizations to support critical business processes – but do you know exactly what has been customized in your EBS environment, why it is still needed, and whether it is ready for the future?

Join us for an expert discussion featuring Santiago Bastidas, Product Management Director in Oracle’s E-Business Suite Technology Group, and Johannes Michler, CTO at Broadpin and Oracle ACE Director – both with extensive expertise in Oracle EBS, together with Stephan La Rocca, Director, Business Development at Broadpin and a modernization expert. Together, they will share practical perspectives on how to approach the future of EBS customizations.

Explore how to keep, modernize, or replace existing customizations while protecting your investments and keeping your EBS core upgradeable. Learn how to address common challenges such as missing documentation, technical debt, limited transparency, high maintenance costs, and upgrade complexity – and how Oracle APEX, modern web and mobile capabilities, and AI can support a step-by-step modernization strategy.

The session will also introduce a Rapid Insight Assessment as a practical starting point to gain transparency into your customizations and identify the right next steps for your EBS environment.

EBS to Fusion: Three Paths to Cloud Transformation

Migrating from Oracle E-Business Suite to Oracle Fusion Cloud isn't a single decision — it's a choice between fundamentally different transformation strategies. In this session, SMX's Oracle practice walks through three proven approaches: Outside In, which modernizes planning and forecasting first by implementing Oracle EPM Cloud while EBS stays transactional; Inside Out, which replaces the General Ledger first and phases out remaining EBS modules over time; and All In, a full enterprise-wide move to Oracle Fusion Cloud in one transformation. We'll compare each approach on speed, risk, cost, and business disruption, and help you identify which path — or combination of paths — fits your organization's priorities, technical debt, and appetite for change.

Learning Objectives: 

1. Explain the three primary approaches to migrating from Oracle EBS to Oracle Fusion Cloud (Outside In, Inside Out, and All In) and what each involves operationally.
   Compare the trade-offs of each approach across speed, cost, risk, and business disruption.
2. Assess which approach best aligns with their organization's current EBS environment, transformation goals, and risk tolerance.
3. Identify the key implementation considerations — integration, data conversion, and change management — associated with each path"

Beyond the Go-Live: How to Keep Risk from Creeping into Oracle ERP

Oracle ERP environments rarely stand still. Roles change, users move between responsibilities, configurations evolve, quarterly updates introduce change, integrations multiply, and organizations increasingly automate processes that were once performed by people.

The result is a control environment that can look very different six months after implementation than it did at go-live.

The challenge is no longer simply whether the right controls were designed. It is whether those controls continue to work as access, configurations, and transactions change.

In this session, Jeff Hare of ERP Risk Advisors joins Adil Khan, SafePaaS, to explore the governance and risk issues organizations encounter after implementation and why many only become visible during an audit, access review, or control failure.

We will examine practical challenges including role proliferation and excessive access, segregation of duties conflicts, changes to sensitive configurations, privileged activity, and high-risk transactions. We will also discuss the limitations of periodic reviews and spreadsheet-driven controls when the underlying Oracle environment is changing continuously.

Rather than treating access, configuration, and transaction risk as separate problems, the session will explore how organizations can establish a more continuous view of risk across Oracle ERP, helping teams identify meaningful exceptions earlier, focus remediation where it matters, and produce stronger evidence for auditors.

Attendees will leave with a practical framework for assessing where risk may be accumulating in their Oracle environment and how to move from periodic detection toward more proactive governance.

Learning Objectives: 

1. Identify where Oracle ERP risk emerges after implementation, including role changes, excessive access, segregation of duties conflicts, configuration changes, and sensitive transactions.
2. Recognize the limitations of periodic and manual controls in an Oracle environment where users, roles, configurations, integrations, and business processes are continually changing.
3. Apply a more continuous approach to Oracle ERP governance that connects access, configuration, and transaction monitoring to improve risk visibility, remediation, and audit readiness.

Inventory Without Overtime: Physical Inventory Transformation

With increasing volatility and unpredictable disruptions, supply chain operations require rapid and accurate inventory data to enable critical managerial decisions. Yet for many manufacturers, that visibility remains constrained by warehouse-floor processes that still rely on paper, clipboards, spreadsheets, and manual workflows.

Learn how they replaced clipboards and paper tags with mobile, scanner-enabled workflows, all without downtime, disrupting operations or replacing Oracle E-Business Suite.

Go behind the scenes of their modernization journeys: how they identified and built the business case, secured leadership buy-in, and delivered measurable ROI. Walk away with lessons learned and a practical approach to identifying high-impact opportunities to streamline operations without the cost, complexity, and disruption of a large-scale migration project.

Learning Objectives: 

1. Identify high-impact opportunities to replace paper-based processes with mobile, scanner-enabled workflows.
2. Build a compelling business case for modernization, including securing leadership buy-in and demonstrating measurable ROI.
