PeopleSoft Project Implementation Update
 UT Austin selected Workday as the new software to replace DEFINE. They are
currently in planning stages for the implementation project. DEFINE and
related systems supporting UT will be retired.
 UTShare PeopleSoft project is tracking at 50% of 63% according to project plan
for the March 1st go-live.
 Campuses continue to validate DEFINE conversion data in PeopleSoft and
perform Integration testing.
 During Integration testing (Round 1) several system issues were uncovered in
HCM and FMS that will require manual workarounds for the March 1st go-live.
 UTShare PeopleSoft go-live is expected to be difficult and tough. Central
Processing areas will be initially faced with challenges due to manual clean-up
of data anomalies from conversion and manual workaround processes.
 We ask everyone for their support through the corrective measures of
PeopleSoft that will likely occur over an extended period of time.
 While transition from DEFINE to PeopleSoft will be challenging, it will ultimately
benefit and support UTSA’s journey to Tier One status.

Your questions about PeopleSoft are important and will be answered
according to the information we have at this time. Keep in mind,
PeopleSoft implementation is underway, approaching the second round of
integration testing. Therefore:
 Many decisions are still in the process of being worked out.
 Due to the phased, sequenced roll-out of PeopleSoft Approval Workflow, final
development of PeopleSoft workflow is not complete and decisions for this are
still under consideration.
 Interim processes for Approval Workflow are being considered to support the
phased, roll-out of PeopleSoft’s Approval Workflow.
 Integration testing of PeopleSoft continues to determine Interim processes;
Processes are subject to change.
 Information will be conveyed when validated and approved.
