Is anyone aware if the supply chain functionality of baanIVc4 SCH1 namely selfbilling, purchase and sales schedules is included in Gemini I know they failed to get this stuff working properly in the version 5 releases and eventually gave up and removed it. But I assumed it would be returned in Gemini I have heard that this is not the case and features are still missing. If this is true what happens to the companies (mainly automotive) on this version there is no upgrade path. Is this a similar problem for the other extensions like A&D,MCR are they also locked in at IV or is it only the SCH0,SCH1,AGS0,NAS0 extensions

According to the presentation at BWU last year by the SSA automative Team, the Supply Chain version of What will be called SSA ERP LN (Not Baan 6.1) will be the second half of 2005.
You can get the presentation Fred Thomas gave at BWU's website.

At the UK & Ireland Baan Users conference I seem to remember that they said SSA said supply chain functionality (purchase/sales schdules) is included as standard within SSA ERP LN from it's July 2004 release. Would be worth rechecking...

From the BWU Presentation:

SSA Global Automotive Roadmap Baan 6
> Original scope was completed on schedule (Sept 2003)
> Decision made that it didn’t meet customer expectations
> Accordingly, we have extended the scope to include:
Additional functionality
Increased translations / localizations
Enhanced migration tooling
More testing
> Re-scheduled Baan 6 Launch:
Controlled Release : Spring 2004
General Availability : Summer 2004
> Initial release -General Manufacturing / Hi-Tech/Electronic
> Baan ERP 6 for Automotive
Focused development efforts will begin Q3 2004
> Target launch will be 1st half 2005

I seem to remember, that SSA will build an new localisation in Baan IVc4:
"ags2" with new functionalities and for an easier way to migrate to SSA ERP LN (Baan 6) later.
SSA told us in Febr. 2004, this will be come in the mid of 2004 for 4c4.
The reason for this is clear if you read the posted before.

My answer from Baan support is that I need to migrate to AGS0 and from that I can migrate to Gemini/SSA ERP LN.
Has anyone done any testing of this so far
SCH1 -> AGS0
and or
AGS0 -> Gemini/SSA ERP LN

Thanks

I did full test on migrating from NAS0 to AGS0. Attached are the steps I took in doing the testing.

Note: The conversion routine will work with Sch0, Sch1 or Nas0.
Also, I did these test about a year ago. I don't think anything has changed since then. BTW, I'm still running Nas0.
