A Global Software, Inc. Case Study
Crocs, Inc., the global designer and retailer of Crocs™ footwear, relied on JD Edwards for core financial data but was hampered by manual “data dumping” and repetitive report rebuilding to produce budget‑to‑actual comparisons, returns reserve calculations, channel analyses and reconciliations across its international operations.
By implementing Spreadsheet Server and Distribution Manager, Crocs turned Excel into a live, drill‑down reporting front end tied to JDE and automated report distribution. The solution eliminated repetitive re‑runs, sped reconciliations, reduced frustration, and freed staff—across 76 users—to spend more time on financial analysis and strategy.
