PeopleSoft isn’t a relic of the past—it’s a modern, adaptable platform ready for the next generation of ERP strategy. In this session, we’ll explore how organizations can transform PeopleSoft from a traditional application into the core of a hybrid, cloud-connected ecosystem. The focus is on modernization through integration, automation, and intelligent architecture rather than replacement. We’ll discuss practical strategies for migrating PeopleSoft to the cloud, selecting the right hosting model, and designing a roadmap that prioritizes agility, scalability, and business value. Attendees will see how cloud-native tools, APIs, and automation frameworks can extend PeopleSoft’s capabilities and deliver continuous innovation without disrupting existing operations. This session is for IT leaders and administrators looking to redefine how PeopleSoft fits into their enterprise strategy. You’ll leave with actionable guidance on how to position PeopleSoft as a strategic platform, connect it seamlessly with modern technologies, and unlock new levels of performance and insight in the cloud era.

At last year’s RECONNECT Live! at BLUEPRINT 4D Conference in Las Vegas, the State of Indiana received multiple inquiries about its experience with the Travel & Expense (T&E) module. Many users are either transitioning to Fluid for T&E or recently completed the move and are facing similar challenges. The State of Indiana will present an overview of its T&E setup and configuration, including agency and employee participation, reporting volumes, workflow design, expense type and location setup, and year-end processing. The presentation will also highlight key challenges encountered, solutions implemented, and process improvements delivered since moving to Fluid in January 2023. This session aims to provide valuable insights for those considering the transition and encourage collaboration among other organizations using the module.
