I haven't. I needed data and was not given access to the data directly. The JD Edwards Team ran Business Objects generating an attached CSV file. Unfortunately, that process took 15 minutes and I needed closer to real-time than that so I was given a View on a nearby server. That got me pretty fast access < 2 minutes for most calls. Now IT is moving to Oracle, and I think I will be relegated to Business Objects again and I was hoping that directly accessing Business Objects might still give me relatively fast access...
