Financials Fit/Gap Wraps Up and Other Updates

The Financials team was the first group to embark on the intense journey of design and implementation, and they are blazing a trail for the rest of us to follow! Throughout January, they participated in an extensive fit/gap analysis with representatives from MIS, Inc., our implementation partner. This week saw the wrap-up of those sessions intended to identify Cascade and Banner processes that will transfer easily to PeopleSoft as well as any processes requiring additional configuration or interfaces. Also in January, the development team from Technology Services participated in training on the use of PeopleTools.

Yesterday, several representatives from Puget Sound visited our counterparts at George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon, to learn about their implementation and use of PeopleSoft. We appreciate the willingness of folks there to share their experiences, insights, and good advice as we move forward!

Today we had a demo of PeopleSoft for representatives from Human Resources and CES as design and implementation will start in their area in July.

Special thanks to everyone for their active engagement in these important activities!
