Abstract:

Join us as we look unleashing the power of Activity Guides with Activity Guide Composer. Activity Guide composer is now a part of PeopleSoft enterprise components and is a tool that every PeopleSoft developer, administrator, and functional configuration specialist needs to know about. Activity guide composer puts the power of activity guides in a simple and intuitive user interface and breaks down the complexity behind activity guides. This webinar will look at where we have utilized activity guide composer and delivered out of the box capabilities but will also look at how you can utilize the tool to create your own guided process and deploy that guided process to your end users.

One of the best values PeopleSoft offers is the ease of making customizations to get the application to work the best for your business. But those customizations come at a cost. When applying maintenance you have to account for the changes. There are strategies you can take to minimize the cost of customizations. In this session we’ll look at what is available in the Lifecycle products to help you manage change.

Abstract:

Two of the most important features for isolating customizations in PeopleSoft are Event Mapping and Drop Zones. Event Mapping lets you inject custom code, while Drop Zones permit you to add fields and other elements to pages—all without impacting delivered code. We will also cover a new feature that lets you plug in custom code in App Engine programs without impact. Together these features allow you to retain your most important customizations while greatly streamlining uptake of new images and significantly reduce life cycle cost and effort.

Organizations continue to implement PeopleSoft tools and frameworks like the Page and Field Configurator to reduce and isolate customizations. If you have not yet implemented the Page and Field Configurator attend this session for an overview on how to quickly implement the tool.

We will also review recent updates to the tool including configuration of secondary pages and new options to streamline user and role-based criteria. We will explore some of the more advanced capabilities including options to apply multiple configuration sequences additively and other functionality to mask sensitive data. We’ll conclude with an open Q&A session and an advanced look at other features on the roadmap to better understand Oracle’s continuing investment in the feature.

Abstract:

BIDMC utilized the Related Content Framework and the Page & Field Configurator to eliminate customizations to delivered PeopleCode events and pages during our most recent HCM patching project for PeopleTools 8.55 to 8.56 and PUM Image 16 to Image 26. We were able to convert ten separate customizations to delivered objects into delivered configurations, which removes them from future compare reports and retrofits. These tools will be used for every future PUM Image application to provide continuous reduction of customization impact, with the end goal being elimination of custom code on delivered objects.

Abstract:

Expanding access to PeopleSoft and enabling mobility is a common strategy for boosting user engagement. However, the expanded threat surface that also comes with a mobile environment can create challenges for balancing productivity and security. To mitigate these risks, it’s essential that organizations understand vulnerable areas of PeopleSoft, how to strengthen authentication, limit the unnecessary exposure of data, and gain deeper insights into data access information.

Join us as we discuss the most common use cases that lead to data breaches and the strategies that organizations are using to strengthen data security.

Learn about how successful PeopleSoft HCM and FSCM customers have implemented PTF and Testing-as-a-Service. Case Studies will draw upon benefits realized for customers to save time and money moving to an automated testing service. Your presenters from SpearMC will explain the value of saving time for functional SMEs by replacing routine, manual testing with automated scripts. We will also discuss how to easily migrate automated test cases across environments and our success with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Use case will be presented to evaluate test results and PI reports to make informed decisions and stay current. SpearMC’s Testing as a Service (TAAS) solution enables PeopleSoft Enterprise customers to focus on our core business, while reducing internal testing support efforts.

Abstract:

In 2015 King County adopted a Release Set delivery strategy to align HCM system updates with PeopleSoft Update Manager Image releases. This strategy has been refined over the years to keep King County current with the latest Images available and give users access to the latest features and functionality. Adopting a continuous release cycle comes at a cost with repetitive analysis, testing and implementation. We will discuss the King County approach to Images, highlighting how King County is creating a culture of innovation from analysis and actively managing customizations by integrated Event Mapping to using testing automation to implementing Release Sets every 6-8 weeks.
