Middle East Client - Consultant PeopleSoft Campus Solutions

As a subcontractor added to the PeopleSoft implementation team to assist with the roll-out of PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. The main areas of work are Data Migration and Third Party integrations. Data Migration comprises of the more standard tasks to move data from the legacy system into PSCS. I developed the main Application Engines in the Application Designer to upload data via the Component Interfaces. This approach guarantees that all business rules are adhered by and that referential integrity in the database is maintained.

Integration is done on TimeTable+, a scheduling program, and Moodle.

An additional task is the upload and maintenance on SetUp and AS data. This data is uploaded via xl2ci.
