Course Overview

We help JD Edwards users move from manual processes to practical, scalable automation using Orchestrator.

The Orchestrator Basics course introduces the core concepts and capabilities of JD Edwards Orchestrator. Through hands-on exercises, participants learn how to create, run, and manage orchestrations in a dedicated training environment.

By the end of the course, participants will have a solid foundation for building and using orchestrations in their own JD Edwards environment.

Interactive, Hands-On Learning Approach

This course is designed to be highly interactive and grounded in real-world scenarios.

Throughout the training, we use a fictional company “Mossy Banks Distributors” as a common thread to connect the exercises. This provides meaningful business context and helps tie individual topics into a cohesive learning experience.

Course Structure

  • 4 sessions (4 hours each) delivered over 4 days

  • Sessions are delivered live via Zoom

  • Topics are introduced using short presentations and demonstrations

  • Demonstrations follow the same flow as the exercises

  • Participants then complete hands-on exercises using step-by-step guides

This approach allows you to see how concepts are applied before building them yourself.

Hands-On Exercises & Challenges

  • Exercises include clear, step-by-step instructions

  • Optional challenge tasks extend learning beyond guided steps

  • Faster-paced participants can explore advanced variations

Challenges provide an opportunity to apply what you’ve learned without relying on detailed instructions.

Instructor Support

  • Real-time assistance is available during sessions

  • Additional one-on-one support is available between sessions if needed

This ensures that participants stay on track and receive the help they need to successfully complete the course.

What You'll Learn
