New Online Support for ePro!

PeopleSoft Online Tutorials
for eProcurement Now Available!


A great new animated and interactive tutorial tool is now available for district employees who submit PeopleSoft eProcurement requisitions on a PC computer!

The online support tool, known as PeopleSoft Online Tutorials, provides you with three different ways to receive help:
See It - Watch as a mini-movie demonstrates how to order items in eProcurement.
Try It - Practice working with an ePro order in a simulated environment while the computer walks you through the steps.
Do It – Submit your own eProcurement requisition in the real PeopleSoft environment while the computer guides you through each step.

Employees can access PeopleSoft Online Tutorials by clicking Help from within an appropriate PeopleSoft Window. To find out how to locate and use the Tutorials, go online to: http://www.sandi.net/peoplesoft/readandlearn/elearning and click Getting to the Special Request Online Tutorial. From that page you can download and print out the illustrated Tutorial Job Aid, by clicking on View the text-based Job Aid.

What Can You Get Help With? – We’re starting off with a tutorial for how to order a Special Request item in eProcurement. More tutorials are being built and will soon be available. Future tutorials will likely include: How to Order Catalog Items in ePro, How to Use the Edit Defaults Feature in ePro, and What to Do If You Get a Budget Error in ePro.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
If your computer has a pop-up blocker, like the one in the Google Toolbar, you may have to hold down your SHIFT or CTRL key on your keyboard when you click on the PeopleSoft Online Tutorial link to launch the tutorials window. You will discover this if you try clicking the link and nothing happens.
These online tutorials will only work on a PC with Windows. Macintosh computer users will not be able to access these tutorials.

The IT DWA Training team is developing more PeopleSoft Online Tutorials to assist you with other common Finance and HR tasks in PeopleSoft. Check our website from time to time, to stay tuned for more ways to receive online help with PeopleSoft! You can find this and other training information at: www.sandi.net/peoplesoft
