A Time to Celebrate!

A cheerful group of campus members gathered yesterday in the lower level of Howarth Hall to celebrate the successful implementation of PeopleSoft Financials. The event featured refreshments, cake, live music, and lots of opportunities to visit and reflect on the accomplishments of the Financials team. Team leads added their signatures to the large wall sign in the Optimize computer lab, and representatives from Accounting and Budget Services autographed a Financials logo sign to place in their department.

Meanwhile, the Human Resources team participated in some final discovery sessions on core HR functionality, time and labor, benefits, and payroll. They are looking forward to their first Fit-Gap sessions next week.

Training on purchasing and budget administration continued this week as well. We greatly appreciate the good feedback we’ve gotten from participants in training sessions. Such comments and suggestions are very helpful as we plan and conduct future sessions.

The Financials celebration this week marked a significant milestone in this important project. We happily anticipate more celebrations as the Human Resources and Campus Solutions teams move forward with their work!
