Data migration is one of the most critical and complex aspects of moving from PeopleSoft HCM to Oracle Cloud HCM. This session will provide practical strategies for managing this transition effectively, drawing from the real-world experience of a leading public research university currently undergoing this journey. We will explore the full lifecycle of data migration, including early data assessment, defining the migration scope, data cleansing and standardization, data mapping and transformation, pilot testing, and ensuring security and compliance throughout the process. This presentation is ideal for HRIT professionals, data leads, project managers, and technical team members involved in Cloud HCM implementations, especially those coming from a PeopleSoft background. Attendees will learn how to make informed decisions about what data to migrate, how to manage risks during conversion cycles, and how to ensure compliance with data privacy standards. Real-time challenges, tool usage, and lessons learned will be shared to help others plan a smoother and more secure migration path.
