Administrative Support

Administrative support includes core business systems (financial, human resources, payroll), document management, and the data warehouse.

Strategic directions

1. Monitor the progress of the Oracle "Fusion" project to understand its impact on future administrative systems directions at KUMC.
2. Attend to other developments in the administrative systems domain, including open-source developments, to prepare for possible migration from Oracle/PeopleSoft.
3. Use the KUMC data warehouse both for reporting from PeopleSoft and other source systems (as appropriate) and for presenting information integrated from two or more source systems.
4. Support the School of Medicine's needs for financial data integrated from State, grant, KUEA, clinical, and other sources.
5. Grow usage of Document Management services within the University community.
6. Grow the data warehouse by incorporating information from some or all of the following source systems: KU Endowment Financials; KUPI ADP (Payroll); KUPI Great Plains Financials; PeopleSoft Faculty Database; KUMC Space Database; and the PeopleSoft Grants Module.
7. Grow usage of workflow within the PeopleSoft HCM 9.1 application to create efficiencies in business process flows.
