I just
completed a successful upgrade implementation of Peregrine-Harbinger from
version 4.1 to version 5.0 on a HP UNIX 11 platform with Oracle database
version 8i (8.1.5) and Oracle client software running on Windows 2000.
Although the Opt Center and Workbench running on Windows 2000 was not
certified by Peregrine-Harbinger, we have not had any issues. The
implementation uses standard VAN connections with NO FTP of data between
trading partners.
Peregrine-Harbinger
imposed stricter standards edits in the move from 4.1 to 5.0. If your maps
adhere to standards for HL loops, segment loops and field qualifiers, you will
have less mapping issues. Before implementation we updated our maps where
necessary based on testing each maps and checking for map failures and
differences in map output of v 4.1 verses v
5.0.
I have
been told Peregrine-Harbinger upgrade from v 4.1 to v 5.0 was a more
significant upgrade to mapping than the move from 5.0 to 5.1. The upgrade from
5.0 to 5.1 involves new mapping features. Currently we are not using XML. Our
next move will be to EDI over the Internet. We have an ongoing search and
review project for software products that will move our EDI communications to
the web.

I believe that the
decision lies with the platform on which you are running
v5.0. Our initial indications on the AS400 platform appear
to be a stable application.

Subject: Anyone dumping
Peregrine?
Hello, group.
I've
been asking numerous questions to you guys about the TLE EV5.0 upgrade. Well,
based on all of the responses that I've received and all the problems that
I've been told about, I'm a little apprehensive about moving forward with this
upgrade. This apprehensiveness is not strictly based on the responses from
this group, but also from speaking with others who are currently attempting
the upgrade.
Also, I'm just having second thoughts
about whether or not this product is the best product for our company's
future.
I
have two questions that I wanted to ask the group. If you can, please answer
one or the other.
Is
there anybody else in here that will not be doing the 5.0 upgrade even though
you will lose Peregrine support and will continue using TLE 4 (or below) until
a much later time period (perhaps next year) or until you find a better
product? Would doing that be a huge risk?
Question 2: Is anyone out there using
the following EAI tools (SEEBEYOND, VITRIA/XML SOLUTIONS,
WEBMETHODS) and if so, can you tell me what you think of the
EDI/XML functionality within it? Mainly, I'm asking about the mapping tool,
but please elaborate on anything else that you wish.
SALES PERSONNEL, please do not reply to
this email!!
Thanks.
