Today while going through some folders on my computer today, I came upon this Oracle whitepaper from 2007 about "JD Edwards Enterpriseone Upgrade Best Practices" and I thought I would share it with you. In a general sense, most of the information is still valid today and will provide the reader with a wealth of information relating to the upgrade process.

Happy Reading!
