Upgrade Improvement Scope Criteria

# Project Objective Decision Criteria

1. Leverage out of the box PeopleSoft Financials v9.2 Is change a new delivered feature and can it be supported easily within

the current set of system functionality?

2. Reduce and simplify custom development

• Does change require net-new (expansion) custom development?

• Can we eliminate a customization with new features and

functionality?

3. Implement strategic changes that add a high degree

of enterprise wide benefits to the organization

Does change represent a broad based, global benefit to the

organization?

Note: Pure departmental changes were not included in scope.

4. Develop new skillsets and support capabilities to

reduce risk to operations

• Can we improve Fred Hutch’s support capabilities within the

business and IT?

• Are support risks reduced?

5. Retrofit custom development that impacts delivered

PeopleSoft international processing functionality.

Does existing custom development or configuration block or hinder

future international processing in multiple global business units?

6. Improve the flow of information between

PeopleSoft Financials and external applications Can we standardize or improve existing interfaces between systems?

AR & BI to PC

124

• PeopleSoft Receivables 9.2 extends the AR to PC

integration by interfacing AR direct journals to Project

Costing. The interface process was modified to pick up

direct journals from Receivables. Users are able to

specify an analysis type while entering the direct

journal which makes AR direct journal integration to

PC consistent with other subsystems.

AR to PC

125

AR to PC

126

• Direct Journal rows

from AR come over

to PC with BI

Distrib Status of “I”

and are not priced

• Therefore, FHCRC,

decided to keep

existing

customization to

send ARD journals

from GL to PC

PC Distrib Status

127

• PC_DISTRIB_STATUS move from JRNL_HEADER to

JRNL_LN

• Minimal impact for

FHCRC

• Needed to update

a small number of

queries

• Needed to retro

fix AR to PC

customization

Billing Speadsheet Import

128

• Spreadsheet Import to Billing interface allows the user

to enter invoice data into an Excel spreadsheet and

post it to the Billing Interface tables via Integration

Broker.

• Rolled out at FHCRC for fixed priced bills (previously

entered through AR Pending Items

Commitment Control (KK) Changes

129

• Overall functionality pretty similar

• Some new, nice features

• Auto-override option on Source Transaction (automatically override those errors that can be overridden)

• Account Ranges on Budget Definition

• Copy the entire Budget Definition setup, including the creation of Commitment Control Ledgers, Ledger Groups, and Budget Definitions.

• Check Only (what-if scenario) - not being at FHCRC

FHCRC KK Changes

130

• Eliminated GL ChartFields from Budget Checking (with the exception of Account and Budget Ref)

• Added Rulesets to allow managing Fiscal Year (FY) projects differently than Life to Date (LTD) projects (adding Budget Period)

• Added a Rollup/Summary Level to have the ability to control or turn off spending at an Expense Grouping level

• Added Revenue Ledgers to all spending authority to be increased by Revenue for certain Projects

• Turned on KK for AR and BI

• Created a new Detail ledger so that encumbrance detail can be tracked and PO Roll over functionality can be used (and still have RSA – Remaining Spending Authority – calculated at the Grandchild, Child, and Parent Level). Previously detail ledger was check on the Child Expense Ledger Group

• Began using PO Rollover Functionality

New Features not using

131

• Grants WorkCenter (will be rolled out post go-live)

• Federal Financial Report (FFR) (may roll out post

go-live)

• Grants Portal

• Separately identify rates and prices for revenue and

billing

Lessons Learned

132

Lessons Learned

133

• If you need to make changes to Commitment Control • Don’t be afraid to change… but it does take work

• Do: Give yourself time for the conversion

• Updating Budget Definition – Performance/Timeout issues

• Recalculating Budget Date default not checked (Copy Journal, Create Standard Journals, PO Close)

• PO Rollover does not carry forward Req information

• If using PO Rollover, be sure to have inbound AP interfaces not charge to close/cancelled PO Distrib lines

• AR Items created through on-line pending items needed SQL insert since it was not budget checked pre-go live

• Drilling URL bug
