New OAUG SIG formed to support Demantra Users

The Oracle Applications User Group has just formed a new Special Interest Group (SIG) to meet the needs of Demantra Demand Management users. I spoke to Jim Wilson, the SIG chairperson, this week about this group and will be supporting the SIG as a board member through their formation period. As with other OAUG SIGs, the intent is to provide an independent forum for the sharing of information and experience on best practices and effective use of Demantra. It is also our intent to function as a channel for providing customer feedback to Oracle for future enhancements.

You can learn more and join this group via the OAUG Demantra SIG website. The first meeting will take place on Sunday, April 15, 2007 at 1 PM during the Collaborate 07 conference. If you are attending this event at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Convention Center in Las Vegas, stop by the Breakers D room to meet with us. The SIG will start to have regularly scheduled SIG web-conferences after that date.
