Oracle HR/Payroll is Coming…Are You Ready?
June 7, 2002

Oracle HR/Payroll Implementation Date Moved to September 26
The Integrated Systems Project Executive Committee has decided to postpone the Oracle HR/Payroll go-live date until September 26, 2002. These additional 90 days will allow the ISP, University Human Resources staff, and schools and departments to test and learn how to operate the Oracle applications more fully so that everyone is well prepared at go-live and we all have a shorter and smoother stabilization period.

An added benefit to the September go-live date is that it allows University employees to get beyond the fiscal year-end close and the busy human resources/payroll transaction months of August and September without the additional burden of beginning to operate a new system. All information from those months will be converted into Oracle at go-live.

Please note:

• Revised dates for entering the last transactions into the legacy system (Employment System and OPAS) will be forthcoming.
• Time and leave will continue to be reported on the current bubble sheets and automated time sheets until further notice.
• There will be no dim period for current Oracle users from June 20 to June 24; the system will operate on the normal schedule during this time.
• The training schedule remains the same at this point, but refresher sessions will be offered closer to the September go live date.
• The fixed assets application will go live July 1, as scheduled.

The Oracle HR/Payroll applications have proven themselves to be fully capable of doing the University's human resources and payroll business. It is now our goal to use the lessons of our phase 1 implementation to ensure a smoother transition for phase 2.
