The County of Sonoma successfully implemented PeopleSoft (PS) 9.1 Financials and Supply Chain Management (SCM) in 2014, Phase II (additional modules) in 2015 and upgraded to PS 9.2 Financials and SCM in 2017.  After three years of implementation and upgrade, it was determined that the Enterprise Financial System (EFS) project team needed to transition to an ongoing support team to ensure the continued success of Sonoma County’s multimillion dollar investment. Over a nine-month period, a dedicated team analyzed both internal and external factors to determine an effective service delivery model to present to the EFS Leadership Team garnering their support for approval to move forward and transition the EFS project team to a fully functioning support organization. This case study will walk you through the steps EFS used to develop their service delivery model and illustrate the successes they have achieved since the adoption of their service delivery model.

Oracle keeps delivering great new tools to help PeopleSoft clients “de-modify” their systems. The newest is Drop Zones, delivered in the newly-released PeopleTools 8.57.

We’ll give you a step-by-step walkthrough of how to implement Drop Zones, as well as two other “go vanilla” tools – Page and Field Configurator and Event Mapping.

The second half of the session will focus on “go vanilla” strategy. When does it make sense to use each of these tools? Is there still a “right time” for custom development? How do you implement a successful “bolt-on” strategy that minimizes upgrade impact, but still expands system value and targets unique requirements?

Come get the vision and the tools to implement Oracle’s best practices strategy to de-modify. Vanilla really is the best PeopleSoft flavor!

PeopleSoft’s delivered 9.2 Fluid OnBoarding offers a compelling, accessible onboarding experience for new employees. There are some hurdles, though, that can make delivered Onboarding an impractical solution, including questions such as "how do you transition data from your Applicant Tracking System to Onboarding to Hire without manual steps and data re-entry?" and tips such as "In order to prevent duplicate IDs, you want to gather their birthdate and SSN using Onboarding to see if they already have IDs, but they can’t access Onboarding without an Emplid and a UserID.
