PeopleSoft 9.2 Implementation
MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR
In less than
six months, 金沙中国 employees will be using PeopleSoft 9.2 for HR
and Financial transactions. On September 1, 2018, end users will
benefit from new features that will give them an enhanced, more
intuitive user interface and additional self-service
functionality.
At this time, our core team members are
undertaking an intense data validation process to make sure the
historical information that we will be converting from our
current legacy systems to PeopleSoft is complete and accurate.
Simultaneously, the team has begun preliminary testing exercises
(unit testing) to ensure that each individual module is
configured and developed as designed. Full system testing, which
includes making sure all of the modules work together, will start
towards mid- to late April 2018.
During the testing phase, our goal is to find all
of the bugs and any other system or process issues so that we may
address them before launching to production. Without question,
this will be a very busy period but we are also excited to see
the full PeopleSoft functionality with our own 金沙中国 data!
Our end user training and transition plans are
also making progress. For more details, please see the Training
and Transition section of this newsletter below.
Last, but not least, we have also started planning
for the actual cutover to PeopleSoft. Cutover is the period right
before go-live in which we will seize to process transactions in
our legacy environment (Oracle EBS) and begin to execute our
processes in PeopleSoft. As part of this planning, our teams are
developing a list of dates that our campus users need to be aware
of in order to plan around them and avoid delaying important
processes such as purchases and hiring new employees. Once our
Governance Committee has reviewed and approved the proposed plan,
these important dates will be communicated.
As always, we want to hear from you about any
questions, suggestions or concerns. This can be done through the
Contact Us form on our website (located here) or by
sending an email to peoplesoft@fuseterminal.com
Thank you for taking the time to read our
newsletter!
