Focus Group Updates: Click on the link to find a focus group to join
- Grants and Project Costing – The combined focus group met in February to review requirements for a tool to evaluate and update Award, Project and Contract Status. The new automation would provide options to update status throughout the life of the project or award. Status could be updated from pending to active to ended to closed status for many projects or awards in a single action. This could include review and approvals for more significant updates such as the closed status or processed without approvals for other interim statuses. Contact joe.willever@oracle.com for more information.
- ALM – We’ll walk through upcoming direction and priorities, and then take a closer look at several in-flight and planned enhancements—including the problems they solve, and expected user impact.
- NEW FOCUS GROUP – Discuss an Off-Boarding process for FSCM, if you are interested contact Tina.Thames@oracle.com to join this focus group.
***Important Note*** Focus Groups are open to all customers, free to join; calls are typically once a month for an hour or as needed. Your organization needs to have a current CPCA (customer participation confidentiality agreement) since Oracle discloses future design and prototypes. Click on the link above for a list of focus group and who to contact.
