... to the Right Honourable CB for his first successful balance data migration since.... well ever by all accounts. Even a last minute panic in the terminations process was not enough to stand in it's way! . .*Polite clapping* . .I'm still going to scrutinise my next tnl: (anag.) bill very closely tho.

Congratulations CB. And without an up to date final final balance load doc as well. . .I know I know project plan has slipped again. Still working on it.

You've either got it or you haven't! . .This is in fact the first Payroll implementation I have worked on since Watson Wyatt started implementing Oracle Payroll and then pulled the plug on the project when it was approaching parallel running. I'm not sure what year it was but my guess would be somewhere around 1997/8. . .So this will be the first Oracle Payroll project that I have worked on that has ever gone live!!!! . .Can't see what all the fuss is about with these Oracle HR consultants refusing to get involved in Payroll it's just a bunch of different screens some different tables and a hefty mobile phone bill ringing anyone who is stupid enough to answer it when they see my name pop up. But thanks alot to the stupid Messrs Cooper Tucker Hatten Moyano Harrison Thrussell and Williams without whom it would not have been possible. I love you all and want your babies. .Is that enough crawling for now?

A Tearful acceptance speech...You forgot to thank your parents grandparents and God.

Col . .Congrats! When is the celebratory pissup. ? . .Perhaps a call from you will motivate the guys.. . .There seems to be a lack of enthusiasm on the other thread. . .Vin

... but did you migrate your own bank details? Always handy for verifying the BACS process has worked with migrated data. . .Talking of 'tearful speeches' isn't that what happened at Watson Wyatt? Stingo feel free to leap in at this point...

With the amount of migrations you've done CT your bank details must be lurking in many a clients payment methods tables! .And I do believe that Stingo was the final nail in the coffin at Watson Wyatt. Has anyone else reduced a client to tears? I know that a few Oracle consultants have been reduced to tears when they heard that Degsy was joining their project but only the one client. . .Celebration piss-up is tonight in Wokingham meet at The Queens Head at 8 o'clock. Anyone else ever tried the Queens Head?.......

Colin Congratulations! It's time for setting up your own consulting practice now that you have the experience of going live for the first time! All you need now is an investment bank... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> .Jairo

Good idea. Any suggestions for a name..... . .HR-PAY-AND-GO-LIVE.com would be a good one . .Expecting Larry to buy us out very soon. . .A potential hostile takeover target

If things get too hostile we'll unleash Potter on them.
