I had the misfortune to introduce (or be introduced) to Oracle back in 1998 / 9.... to avoid Y2K. My company was the pilot for Tiger Brands..... we had 20 -25 Arthur Andersen 'consultants', mostly just out of university, no-one from the USA..... nothing worked although I maintained my old parallel systems to ensure that the R150 million difference on the Bank Statements could be reconciled... off system!! Of course it came right eventually!

But it was like SAP, everything could be over-ridden by senior management, only as good as the ethics of the senior staff!
