SUMMARY:From Manual to Modern—Extending PeopleSoft Financials Automation with GT eForms
DESCRIPTION:In this Lunch & Learn session\, Bupa’s PeopleSoft Support and Development Senior Analyst\, Kirsty Dixon\, will share how her team leveraged GT eForms to extend automation within PeopleSoft Financials. Kirsty will provide a brief overview of the 11 forms Bupa has implemented so far and then dive deeper into two payment-focused use cases. \nThis session will demonstrate how an existing Accounts Payable payment form—previously dependent on technical resources for development and maintenance—was successfully redeveloped using GT eForms. This transformation shifted ownership to the functional team\, enabling Bupa to respond more quickly to business requests. The redesigned form incorporates 15 sub-form types and leverages advanced GT eForms capabilities\, including visual IF conditions\, dynamic field initialization from the data pool\, multiple approval paths & steps\, and automated voucher creation for inclusion in pay cycles. \n  \nFollowing this\, we will showcase a contingent worker payment request form that further utilizes GT eForms functionality which replaced a highly manual\, spreadsheet-driven\, and time-sensitive workflow. Attendees will see how GT eForms introduced standardized submissions\, pre-populated grids\, query links\, and embedded validation steps within approval paths—significantly reducing errors and improving efficiency. \n  \nThis session is ideal for organizations seeking to modernize financial processes and maximize the value of their PeopleSoft environment. \n

SUMMARY:Delivering Customer Success Through Managed Services & Strategic Staffing
DESCRIPTION:In this Lunch & Learn session\, we’ll walk through how organizations are using a combination of managed services and strategic staffing to keep their PeopleSoft environments stable while still making room for meaningful change. \nWe’ll share customer examples from organizations like the University of Oklahoma\, Wakefern\, BYU\, and Southern Methodist University—and others—illustrating how layered support models paired with on-demand specialized resources have helped teams reduce project backlogs\, address skill gaps\, and maintain continuity during transitions\, without sacrificing flexibility or blowing up costs. We’ll also look at how this hybrid approach has supported more significant initiatives like cloud migrations and system upgrades\, where having the right people available at the right time made a tangible difference. \nAttendees will leave with a clearer picture of how to align support models with their organization’s goals and a practical sense of what a sustainable IT service delivery model can look like. \nThis session is ideal for organizations evaluating their current support structure or looking for smarter ways to resource critical projects.
