We're Upgrading!

I'm sure you've been hearing about it in the office lunch room, maybe you've seen email news bulletins or perhaps you even saw that billboard I posted on your commute home from work?

Queen's is upgrading our PeopleSoft Financial module!

When? Next week actually...! Oct.20-24th.

What does the upgrade involve?:

New features for Procurement and Finance PeopleSoft functions

Updated screen layouts

New system terminology

We've been working diligently on this upgrade for the past several months.

Hours of testing, coffee-drinking, decision making, gratitude cookie-buying and even some head-scratching have taken place.

During the final stages of the upgrade, group Purchase Requisition training has been post-poned. Some features are scheduled to update on Requisitions, providing an enhanced ordering experience - why not save training new users on outdated features, so they can learn the ropes on the latest & greatest material? Stay tuned for scheduled classes coming next month!

"But I'm an existing user!", you say? No sweat. Training materials on the enhancements have gone out to you via email - give them a read! Still finding the materials clear as mud? You're in luck - drop-in sessions will be held after the upgrade, where you can chat to a subject matter expert and have any lingerings questions, answered.

So, are you ready? Have your "easy" button handy? Here we go!
