Presented by:
Bill Cage at ERPA

Abstract:

All organizations are under pressure to do more with less. Often that means making the most of what you already have. Experience has shown that many times organizations have not paid attention to their core back office systems and are really not aware of the capabilities that PeopleSoft brings that can solve current problems.

Over the years Oracle has continued to develop PeopleSoft and has provided this functionality through patches and PUMS, yet many institutions have simply remained static due to lack of focus, knowledge, or time.

ERPA’s “Art of the Possible” approach helps users identify where innovation and efficiency are achievable so that your institution can thrive in your ERP investment. It is more than possible to go from where you are now to an elevated place of delivered functionality—across HCM, Finance and Student. Join us to learn how.

Abstract:

Are you tired of going to these sessions and hearing “just change the CSS” but don’t know where to start? After all: PeopleSoft developers in the past haven’t worked much with front end development. This session will introduce attendees to the basics of CSS, including:* What is CSS* Classes: Pseudo-classes: and IDs* General Syntax* Specificity and inheritance. Browser developer tools will be used to demonstrate how a user can analyze delivered design and start to customize the look-and-feel of their own PeopleSoft applications. This session will be applicable to anyone looking to learn basics of CSS: but the content will focus primarily on common changes made to the PeopleSoft user interface.

Presented by:
Tom Johnson at Duke University

Abstract:

As a business analyst, have you ever wished you could tweak a page design, and make it into a slightly better fit for your business? Have you ever needed to grey out field access, add in a default value to a field or perhaps make a field disappear altogether? Then this session is for you.

PeopleSoft Page and Field Configurator feature enables the users to configure properties of pages and fields of classic pages based on business requirements. It allows business analysts to define multiple configurations for a component based on different user roles or a user list. User can define multiple criteria based on the component fields and selectively apply the configuration at run time if the criteria is satisfied based on the run time values.

This session will walk through how Duke University uses Page and Field configurator to augment delivered user security and to enhance functionality for delivered and customized pages. In addition, it will review the setup of the P&FC pages and discuss the delivered roles needed for a BA to complete the setup.
