Challenges / Objectives

?The Client Have their current PeopleSoft application on V8.8/8.47. The goal of the project is to upgrade Client to the latest PeopleSoft V9.0/8.49 MP2 and implement Regional Security, Person Model, eRecruit and Workflow applications?As delivered PeopleSoft supports upgrade from V8.8/8.47 to

V9.0/8.49 MP1. So it looked like this was the direct path and PeopleSoft certified path would be comfortably applicable here. But client did not want to go to V9.0/8.49 MP1 but to the latest release V9.0/8.49 MP2. Upgrading first to V9.0/8.49 MP1 and then a subsequent movement to MP2 was not accepted by client as it will consume extra time as well as resources. So, it was decided to have MP2 applied on V9.0/8.49 Demo before upgrade and then carry on the normal PeopleSoft certified upgrade path.

HCL‘s Solution / Role

Our services in this engagement included:

? Application Upgrade (PeopleSoft-HCM 8.8 to 9.0 by using MP2)

?Customization of eRecruit module?once a stable upgraded copy was obtained eRecruit development was done in upgraded V9.0/8.49 MP2 environment. In order to speedup the upgrade process a custom approach was taken by deciding to reapply only those customizations which was there in old PS 8.8.

?Leveraging the PeopleSoft 9.0 ‘Person Model’ functionality for Employee/Non-Employee (Contingent Worker, Contractor, Person Of Interest etc.)?Faster turnaround time and availability working parallel i.e.
