What industry and software are they using?

So basically a data load into an AS400 based manufacturing system like MAPICS or BPCS.

SAP and Oracle generally have free available guides on how their software works which is a more practical overview than a ppt theoretical document.

This is all legacy systems so the ultimate use case would be a migration to a new software and ideally a cloud based planning solution. Auto/industrial generally uses SAP but best of breed aren’t uncommon.

SAP, Infor, and Blue Yonder are all cloud available now. Oracle has a cloud but partners are far more limited. Kinaxis really doesnt seem to have solid cloud footing but is a solid platform if setup and integrated well.

I'm a woman working in a male-dominated organization. I'm also the newest member of the team. My coworkers have been given approval to travel to see customers, even internationally, but my boss won't let me. I've been held back in more ways than just travel & have even had accounts taken away from me & given to my male coworkers.

I discussed this unequal treatment with my boss 10 days ago, then abruptly yesterday I took a call from HR telling me that I was being let go.

Any leads for hiring?

Tell me your craziest experience working with a TV network. Here comes mine:

I'm American, but my family is mostly Colombian. I was told my aunt and cousins would come here for 2 weeks. I discovered they were going to be paid to appear in a famous Hispanic TV show, where a "judge" receives a case, hears the plaintiffs and defendants and renders a verdict. But of course, it's all fake and payed 😂 turns out she wanted me to go there (even though I don't work for that TV network) so she's sure she'll be paid at the end of the show. Wth did I just do.
