Creoal's Director of Cloud Solutions and Oracle ACE Tom Simkiss partnered with RJ Linehan of Innovus Partners to deliver a webinar for the Oracle Applications Users Group (OAUG). The webinar, entitled "The Modern Business Close: Employing Oracle's FCCS to Overcome Today's Close Challenges," is part of OAUG's three-part series on Oracle's Financial Consolidation and Close Cloud Service (FCCS). 
A mix of both Oracle customers and consultants gathered for the webinar to learn how Oracle's FCCS make it easy for organizations to keep up with increasing complexities of business close and the constant change of reporting requirements. Simkiss and Linehan also provided a live demonstration of FCCS during the webinar. 
The OAUG is the world’s largest education, networking and advocacy forum for Oracle Applications users. This one-hour webinar originally aired on Monday, June 26, 2017. A replay is available on the OAUG website.
