V10 and Mingle - We're up

Hi Kat, Are you on premise or ITC? I am trying to find out who many health care organization are actually in the cloud and experience.

We are in final testing and going live at the end of the month (on-premise). Kat - did you have many complaints about the color scheme and lack of contrast? I'm hearing that a lot - do people get used to it?

So do you know if Mingle Enterprise will allow you to change the colors and placement of fields/toolbars etc. in Req Center?

We are onsite - currently scheduled to go to the cloud March 2018.

 

Yes, we all hate the color scheme - I personally had a torn retina and am having issues.

 

Not on Mingle Enterprise so I do not know what RQC configurations are available.

We're testing right now with a go live date of October 1st, which was moved from June 4th. We're having a lot of issues. S3 itself seems to be working fine but it's all the other systems that connect. For instance, MSCM seems to have a disconnect with S3. When I upload a par count the data doesn't get transferred, it just sits with a status of "Pending Upload". IPA is another problem. All reqs just go to status "Processed" when released regardless of the $ amount and item type. No workunits are being created.

Jon- how many months did you originally allow for your June 4 go-live?

Infor AMS handled the MSCM connection for us. Took two tries - the first wouldn't pull data FROM Lawson to see things to count, but the second attempt went fine.

We were also undergoing a Talent Management upgrade - ipa was constantly up and down - but I had been blaming HR.

The most annoying and timeline endangering piece is that anything patched on 10 hits an insane number of applications, causing us to nearly start from scratch every time.

 

Edited: Also - yes, S3 functions were solid pretty much throughout for us as well.

Lynne- we started installing hardware in October 2015.  Data from v9 production was copied to v10 test early January and we began testing S3 applications.  The consultants were slow to install IPA and connect MSCM test to v10 test.

IPDesigner isn't working well either.  I get all sorts of pop up errors.  I have a feeling that something isn't running or directory/file permissions aren't correct. 

I get this error when I try to add a new connection.

I get this error once I've created the connection and try to log in.

 

And I get this error when I click OK on the previous error.

Thanks for the info, Jon. Are you using any third party consulting services?

Yes. In the past they've been very good.
