PeopleSoft RECONNECT Live! at BLUEPRINT4D Conference – Dallas, TX – May 8 to 11, 2023

I look forward to being at PeopleSoft Reconnect Live! in Dallas in May.

I am excited to be able to discuss with you in person the new PeopleSoft features we have delivered, along with what will be coming in Payroll for North America. One new feature I will share with everyone will be HCM Component Lockdown. We have gathered requirements that everyone put on the idea space to create this new feature.

Join us to learn more about PeopleSoft roadmaps and updates for PeopleTools, HCM, ERP, and Student Cloud. Paco Aubrejuan, SVP for PeopleSoft, will be providing a keynote address. In addition, the PeopleSoft HCM Strategy team Robbin Velayedam, Jeremey Pelly, Julie Alonso, Lisa Chow, Tammy Boyles, and I, will share our roadmap and updates.

Blueprint 4D is a unique conference. For those with other Oracle products like Oracle Cloud and JD Edwards, Oracle Databases, you can learn all about those products too.
