PAR Cut-Off Update

2010-01-20T08:54:00.001-08:00

Jan. 19 was the last day for traditional sites and central offices to submit PARs.

Friday, Jan. 22, is the last day for year-round sites to submit PARs.

During the PAR cut-off period, Jan. 23-Feb. 11, ALL sites will still be able to submit Termination, Leave of Absence and Salary Change PARs.

After Jan. 22, if a site has a critical change that will affect employee pay (such as a new hire, FTE change or classified transfer from year round to traditional site), please contact the PAR Triage Hotline at (619) 725-8101 and a PAR will be created by HR.

On Tuesday, Feb. 16, all sites will be able to submit all PAR types again.

Cancellation of Obsolete PARs: To expedite processing of current PARs, all obsolete PARs (those requested prior to Jan. 1, 2009) will be cancelled by the system by Jan. 22, 2010.

For questions about the PAR Cut-Off, please contact the PAR Triage Hotline at (619) 725-8101.

Reconfiguration of Position Management module in PeopleSoft HCM

2010-01-14T08:12:00.000-08:00

*Please note change in deadline for PAR Cut-off*

UPDATE PAR Cut-Off 1/19/2010 (Traditional and Central Office) 1/22/2010 (Year-round)

To allow central office to process all current PARs (over 1300), a PAR cut-off of 1/19/2010 for traditional calendar sites and Central Office Departments and 1/22/2010 for year-round sites.

Reconfiguration of Position Management module in PeopleSoft HCM

2010-01-11T13:14:00.000-08:00

The newly reconfigured Position Management module in PeopleSoft HCM will ‘go-live’ in mid February 2010.

Who will be affected by the changes to Position Management?
Site staff that are responsible for submitting or approving PARs and reviewing Allocation Status and Filled Position reports will be affected by the reconfiguration of Position Management.Why is Position Management being reconfigured?The current configuration of Position Management at the District allows multiple people to share the same position number. In order to reduce the amount of manual intervention of staff to maintain and process data and to enhance the District’s ability to adequately project and monitor salary and benefit costs, a project is underway to reconfigure to a one-position-to-one person relationship for salaried positions. (Hourly positions will not be affected.)

How does the reconfiguration of Position Management affect me?
Representatives from HR, Finance and IT have been working with site representatives and consultants from Empower Solutions for several months on implementation tasks. Although detailed information and updated training materials will be available for you in January, some initial information is being provided to give you a preview of some of the changes. The following topics are relevant to site staff that are responsible for submitting or approving PARs and reviewing Allocation Status and Filled Position reports:

PARs
Converting to the new one-to-one configuration will require some changes on the PAR. These changes will be identified on all of the related job aides, handbooks and documentation. It’s not anticipated that they will be significant enough to require classroom training. In addition to the updated documentation, the IT Training group will hold Open Labs to assist staff with the new and changed functions of the PAR.

Because of the renumbering/conversion of positions, a PAR Cut-Off will go into effect 1/18/2010. No PARs will be submitted after this date until after the Position Management project go-live in mid-February. This will give HR and Budget some time to complete or cancel all remaining PARs in the bin before go-live.

Position Number Conversion
All positions currently start with a ‘1’. During the conversion to the new one-to-one model, all new salaried positions created from conversion will start with a ‘2’. All positions created after go-live will start with a ‘3’. This ensures a relatively easy method to track pre, converted and post go-live positions.

Organizational Structure – Reports to
In order to use some of the self-service and workflow functions available and to eventually produce organization charts, the organization structure must be defined and built into PeopleSoft. An initial pass during the project conversion will update the ‘reports to’ field on the new positions with the highest level position in the same department. There will be additional information gathering and work post go-live to get the true supervisory position identified for each position. Then ongoing reporting changes will be identified by sites through the PAR.

How do I learn more about the changes with Position Management?
The project team is updating the job aids and documentation to assist you with learning more about changes associated to the reconfiguration of Position Management. Stay tuned for more information! If you have specific questions, please contact Jessica Youngs, Information Technology at jyoungs@sandi.net.

Because of the renumbering/conversion of positions, we expect to have a PAR cut-off date whereby no more PARs can be submitted for a short period of time. This will give HR and Budget some time to complete or cancel all remaining PARs in the bin before go-live. Detailed information will be provided for this in January.

NEW! How to Change ePro Account Code Numbers

2007-12-10T14:38:00.000-08:00

Have you ever wanted to change the Account code within a budget string for an ePro requisition? By that, I mean have you ever been "forced" by the software to use a particular budget Account when you ordered something, even though you knew it was really the wrong Account? (An example would be if you were ordering pencils for students to use, and so you want to use Account 4301 for Instructional Supplies, but the software makes you use Account 4519 for Office Supplies).

Well, now there is a way to change that. If you order a Special Request or a Direct Connect item in ePro, you can change the Account budget code number to be whatever you want it to be. (You still can't change it on any Catalog item you choose from the preset lists, though).

You can change the Account code for a single line item, or for several different line items, or for all line items on an ePro requisition.

To view and print a copy of the brand-new Job Aid showing you how to do this, please visit our Read and Learn page, and click the Job Aids link. Then, scroll to the ePro section and click the Job Aid entitled: How to Change Account Budget Codes.

NEW PeopleSoft eProcurement Online Tutorials are Here!

2007-10-15T13:34:00.000-07:00

ePro Online Tutorials are computer mini-movies that are animated and narrated. They walk you through, step-by step, how to use the new eProcurement 8.9 software. Now you can play one of these brand-new eProcurement online tutorials on your own computer at your office or home (as long as the computer is not a Macintosh...Sorry Mac users!). These tutorials are easy and fun to use. They can help you self-train on the new software, in case you’re unable to attend a face-to-face training class until later. The classes are the best way to get trained, but the tutorials are an excellent method to get you started, and they can support you even after you’ve been to class.

To run an ePro Online Tutorial, here’s what you do:

Log into eProcurement with your employee ID# and password.

Click to: eProcurement > Create Requisition.

Click the blue Help link in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Follow the instructions from there, and remember to use the Try It! way of running the tutorials.

If you need more detailed instructions, go online to this website: www.sandi.net/peoplesoft/readandlearn/elearning. Once you arrive at that website, click to open the link “View PeopleSoft Tutorials Text-based Job Aid.” Print out that Job Aid and follow its detailed, illustrated instructions.

2007-07-31T15:21:00.000-07:00

If you have further questions, please contact Stephen Carr, Information Systems Auditor, 619 725 5696.

Process for Creating Special Request Requisitions in PeopleSoft eProcurement Changing July 1, 2007

2007-06-27T20:42:00.000-07:00

Starting on July 1st, ePro Requesters will have expanded and meaningful item categories to choose from on Special Requests. Use of these predefined item categories will ensure that accurate information flows from the requisition and through purchasing and eventually is stored in the Asset Management module.

This communication provides information on the following topics:

Impact to creating a requisition
How the existing categories have been changed
Where I can download job aids and view online tutorials

Will this slow down the process of creating a requisition?
No, it should actually speed it up a little for you. A new list of Item Categories has been developed and was created with ease of use in mind. Selection of the item category will pre-populate the account field string and in the case of Assets will pre-populate asset-related fields. New edits will help you to choose the correct Item Category and will prevent you from choosing incorrect account codes. Additionally, if you’ve ordered an item worth over $500 and didn’t use an Asset Item Category, you’ll receive a warning to choose an Asset Item Category which will have an asset profile associated with it.

How does the reconfiguration of Asset Management affect me?
The 000 All Items category and the 578 Miscellaneous categories have been removed. Users must select the correct category from the new Category list. The new Categories are easier to find and understand. It is very important for you to either run the video tutorial or read the detailed job aid to learn how to do these ePro orders correctly. Once you try it, you’ll see how easy it really is, over the way it used to be.

Who is going to help me with the new procedures for creating a requisition?
The IT Training team has developed a series of job aids and online tutorial demonstrations to assist you with learning more about item categories and their use within the ePro module.

The Ordering Special Request Items with Asset Management job aid is available for download from the PeopleSoft Training website. Click here to download this document.
The Category List for Special Request Items job aid will help you select the correct category when creating a special request order. This job aid will help you identify the correct category by providing a list of descriptions and corresponding account codes. The job aid is color-coded by category type. Using a color printer is recommended but not required. Click here to download this document.
If you run into trouble while using this new method for submitting special requests, please review the Asset Management Troubleshooting job aid. Click here to download this document.
Knowledgebase article #767 provides a description of Asset Management in eProcurement.
A PeopleSoft Online Tutorial has been created to step you through the process of submitting special requests with Asset Management. Click the Help link to the right of any page in PeopleSoft, then select the PeopleSoft Online Tutorials link to access a list of existing online content. This online tutorial is titled Asset Management Special Requests. Click here if you need assistance accessing this tutorial.

Please contact Robin Hoffpauir with questions regarding creating a requisition (858-522-5805).

Attention Timekeepers! Good News!

2007-06-22T13:29:00.000-07:00

PeopleSoft now automatically sets the combo code to 5570-00010-00-2358-15-00-01-0000 for classified substitutes when the absent employee (or vacant position) is funded with resource code 00010, and the substitute works a full day (based on the absent employee's regular hours). The policy for using this combo code was set in place in January of this year. Until now, timekeepers had to manually change the combo code to this number in Time and Labor. Now, timekeepers will no longer need to manually change the combo code in Time and Labor for these classified substitutes, as PeopleSoft sets it automatically.

Please note that classified substitutes for absences due to worker's compensation, comp day, extra help, or long term extra help are not charged to this combo code. Please also remember that classified substitutes for employees that are not regularly charged to the 00010 resource should be charged to the resource code and department of the absent employee.

If you have any questions regarding this, please contact your budget analyst.

PeopleSoft Financials Upgrade - New Features Available Soon!

2007-06-18T16:08:00.000-07:00

New improvements to eProcurement, Travel Expenses, and other tasks in PeopleSoft Financials will be available to district employees in Fall 2007.

What has been accomplished so far?
Representatives from school sites, Finance, and IT have completed the process of reviewing the new application. The group has:

Identified changes to the existing application and developed strategies for providing you with training and support on the new application.
Reviewed new features to determine which ones can be implemented to help you become more efficient.

What is Asset Management?
Starting July 1st the district will implement the first phase of a reconfiguration of the Asset Management module. Asset Management is a PeopleSoft module designed to track and report on non-consumable goods (things like computers, projectors, furniture, etc.) that are worth more than $464.00 per unit.

How does the reconfiguration of Asset Management affect me?
Starting on July 1st, ePro Requesters will have expanded and meaningful item categories to choose from on Special Requests. Using these item categories will reduce delays in processing orders by helping the Purchasing Department efficiently route the requisition to the correct buyer. When the requester selects the item categories, key pieces of the chart field string will be pre-populated into the requisition. Additionally the use of these predefined item categories will ensure that accurate information flows from the requisition and through purchasing and eventually is stored in the Asset Management module.

Will this slow down the process of creating a requisition?
No, it should actually speed it up a little for you. The IT Department is streamlining the process by reorganizing the category list into a logical order.

Who is going to help me with the new procedures for creating a requisition?
The IT Training team is developing a series of job aids and online tutorial demonstrations to assist you with learning more about item categories. Stay tuned for more information!

How can I learn more about Finance 8.9 during the summer so I’ll be better prepared for fall?
We will continue to distribute informational emails twice a month.

Who should I contact with questions?
Please contact Jessica Youngs, PeopleSoft Development Coordinator, at jyoungs@sandi.net.

Important Time & Labor Reporting Information - Please Review Carefully

2007-05-29T14:40:00.000-07:00

Timekeepers and Site Administrators/Managers,

It has come to our attention that many of you have questions regarding payroll reporting requirements and which reports should be used to review and validate payroll. In an effort to provide some clarification, enclosed is a PDF document that describes each of the reports that are to be used by timekeepers and administrators to validate the payroll and when to run them. Please print and review this document. Included with each description is the navigation in PeopleSoft that will take you to each of the reports. We also believe there may be some room for improving the format of these reports to be more easily understood. The Payroll Department will be reviewing these reports in the coming weeks with the intention of revising them to be more user-friendly.

In addition to reporting requirements, we have provided some clarification on what the 90-day window for making Prior Period Adjustments in Time and Labor should be used for. Please review the description of that window and what types of adjustments should and should not be made using it.

If you have questions regarding this information or other matters related to your payroll, please don’t hesitate to contact your payroll technician. Thank you for all you do!

ATTENTION - PeopleSoft Financials 8.9 Upgrade is Coming this Fall

2007-05-15T09:31:00.000-07:00

New improvements to eProcurement, Travel Expenses, and other tasks in PeopleSoft Financials will be available to district employees in Fall 2007.

What are we upgrading?
This upgrade only affects Financials tasks. The upgrade does NOT have anything to do with HR tasks like Time & Labor or PARs.

Why are we upgrading?
Just like your car...in order to keep it running in good condition, you have to maintain it with tune-ups and oil changes. And, we want to take advantage of new, improved features.

How will I receive training and support?
The IT Training team will make new manuals and interactive tutorials available to all district employees before the new application is released. Open Labs and other support resources will be available as well.

What should I do now?
Keep using PeopleSoft Financials software as you normally do. Watch for future announcements about new features and training opportunities. View the PeopleSoft Website at: www.sandi.net/peoplesoft for the latest information on the Financials 8.9 Upgrade.

Who should I contact with questions?

ATTENTION TIMEKEEPERS AT TRADITIONAL SITES ONLY

2006-06-20T08:59:00.000-07:00

All year round sites must meet with their teachers to select the dates for the 2006-2007 school year.

New Approval Procedures for Travel Expenses

2006-06-01T13:32:00.000-07:00

Within the next day or so, the district will send out an e-mail to all district staff about new procedures for those folks who do the approvals for travel expenses. Please be sure to look for this e-mail, and print it out to keep it handy. Read it thoroughly. Be sure to share the new procedures with your Approver (principal, department head, manager, site administrator, etc.).

What it boils down to is that beginning on June 5, 2006, Approvers will no longer be able to approve Travel Authorizations and Expense Reports until these items have first successfully passed the budget-check process, and therefore received a "Valid" budget status. This is a good thing...it means that all travel will only be approved as long as the money is in place and available to pay for it.

If you have any questions about the new procedures, please contact your Accounts Payable "Vendor" specialist. To find out the name and information of the person you should contact, please click here.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

2006-05-26T08:40:00.000-07:00

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) DEPARTMENT TO ALL STAFF:

On Tuesday, May 30, from 5 to 9 p.m., the IT Department will be upgrading the DWA PeopleSoft HCM database server. There will be no access to production HCM during this time. All other DWA systems will remain available.

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience.

Budget Reports Slightly Old

2006-04-26T09:20:00.000-07:00

Due to some technical problems happening with the EPM loads, budget reports that are currently being run will only be able to offer you slightly old information (as of last Saturday, April 22nd). This problem is being resolved, and the next "reload" is scheduled for tomorrow, April 27th. Therefore, any budget reports that have been or will be run in the PeopleSoft EPM environment before tomorrow will not reflect true, live information. This includes the Budget Transaction Report which is posted under the "My Reports" section of all Department Heads' PeopleSoft log-in portal page.

2. Enter your SDCS Employee ID and Password and click Login. The system may ask for some personal information. If prompted, please enter your name, position, location, and district email address.
3. Click on the "Schedule yourself for classes" link.
4. Select the course you want to add from the drop down menu and click "Continue". A list of available sections will be displayed.
5. Click on the name of the section you want to attend. Details for this section will be displayed.
6. Verify the information is correct and click "add this course".

You can click on "View your current schedule" to see your list of classes including PeopleSoft and Zangle. Click on "Add a course" link to register for additional classes. To drop a course click on the "Drop a course" link and click on the course you want to drop.

Please contact Scott Irwin at sirwin AT sandi.net with questions regarding using the web-based scheduling application.
