PeopleSoft Pre-Built Tools
INKIT Solutions is committed to enhance PeopleSoft HCM to find solutions to the most common business problems. Why waste hours of your precious time in manual activities to still ending up with human errors. Our Consultants have built a number of pre-built tools to support you in moving from transactional to transformational activities.
PeopleSoft Test Framework
Allows users to execute more tests with greater accuracy in less time.
PeopleSoft Test Framework is a great tool to run the same test repeatedly. It is easy to change variables to use the same test scenario with different test cases. For example, if I wanted to create an asset with different asset profiles, It is simply a matter of copying the test case and then changing the profile and re-running the scenario.
Since PTF is upgraded with PUM releases and major upgrades, PTF will automatically be adjusted for changes that have occurred in the PeopleSoft structure for delivered functionality. The biggest benefit is the ability to identify issues with customisations and other objects that are not part of the upgrade; PTF will identify functions where changes need to be made.
There are optimisation tools that are built-in to PTF to adjust for changes in upgrades. These tools make PTF more efficient and make the whole user experience more rewarding. Learn more about INKIT Solutions PTF offering.
Some of the top features include:- Checking for failures.
- Running end-to-end tests
- Performing regression test for SIT (System Integration Test) and UAT (User Acceptance Test)
- Training
STP Year-End Reconciliation Tool
Avoid rework of correcting STP data and sending an update event to the ATO.
This tool helps Reconciliation of STP for a full tax year with final event indicator. This is a three-way matching that involves checking STP data with payroll (payslip data) and also with YTD accumulator values.
INKIT has developed a solution for EOFY reconciliation which will identify the issues with STP and generate the reconciliation reports for most of the STP/Payment summary categories components. The reconciliation report includes incorrect STP values, correct values for each employee, pay entity, pay group and balance group combination. This solution also has the automated process to self-fixing the incorrect STP values. Customers don’t have to run the legacy payment summary process to reconcile the STP.
With INKIT’s reconciliation tool, PeopleSoft customers will avoid rework of correcting STP data and sending an update event to the ATO. Employers are responsible to send accurate payroll data to the ATO which is a compliance requirement and with our solution we can help them achieve that.
Seamless Leave Liability (Rec.Leave/LSL and Sick)
Clear indication of leave movements and seamlessly be posted to GL via the existing GL interfaces.
Leave liability is normally a manual or semi-automated process in most of the organisations that will not give an organisation a clear indication on leave movements i.e. leave take/accruals, on pay rate increase, employee transfer and terminations etc.
Our solution gives an organisation a clear indication of leave movements that will also seamlessly be posted to GL via the existing GL interface
PIN Number Change
Proven approach to change the pin numbers of elements.
Customers who have upgraded from 9.2(8.9,9, 9.1) to 9.2 might have an issue in changing the GP pin number of the PS delivered and custom elements in-line with the Oracle standard (which was introduced after 9.1) because of the its complexity, therefore they might have decided to keep the old fashion pin numbers that would further lead to an issue on applying PUM image, patches etc which is an ongoing issue.
We have a proven approach to change the pin numbers of elements.
Single Source Deductions
Avoid manual intervention in each pay period.
Some of the deductions (Union, child support, overpayment recovery etc) will normally be assigned at the element assignment by payee page. It will work well for ongoing employees. However, with the casual employees where an organisation has multiple casual jobs for an employee, the deduction needs to be assigned against all the jobs (in the element assignment) and also needs manual intervention in each pay period.
Our solution assigns deduction only at the primary job that will automatically be resolved against other jobs that may have enough money in that period.
Automation of Termination/Rehire Process
Automatically reinstate some of the leave balances, seniority date etc. on rehire.
Automation of termination processing including various tax calculations, leave out payments, clear out leave balances etc, Also, reinstate some of the leave balances (like sick leave), seniority date etc on rehire where the employee was rehired within certain period.
Systems Upgrade & Enhancement
With a delivery centre overseas, we offer a combination onshore-and-offshore resource model, to provide a cost effective service. From development to support to upgrade we have it all covered.
WHY UPGRADE?
An upgrade involves advancing the system to the most current version or release available. Oracle releases new versions of the product each year. Organisations are provided with the technology via the PeopleTools or the PeopleSoft Update Manager (PUM), to manage your upgrade.
Upgrading your PeopleSoft system provides many benefits to an organisation including:
- Access to new functionality and technology, helping you meet your business objectives
- Access to the latest performance and usability enhancements, providing an improved customer experience
- Continued access to highest level of technical support from Oracle
- Lower operational costs due to removal of customisations (custom built applications that have been added on to the system)
UNABLE TO UPGRADE?
We recommend that you upgrade your system where possible but the drivers for not to upgrade are wide-ranging, with the obvious one being cost, we have a very competitive pricing model for your system support and maintenance needs. Cost is one of the many benefits.
THINKING ABOUT ENHANCEMENTS AND CUSTOMISATION RENEWAL?
Our key approach is to get more from standard PeopleSoft functionality. We think about resolving a business problem through the following approach:
- Configure the system and keep it vanilla
- Consider use of PeopleSoft Delivered frameworks such as Fluid Drop Zones,Page Field Composer, Activity Guides, and Notification Framework.
- Create Bolt-On – Lift and Shift
We have addressed multiple business problems for our clients using the above approach with significant savings for the clients in terms of time and money.
