PeopleSoft - PeopleTools Upgrade to ver 8.5 - all environments

One of the advantages of a vendor solution is the support vendor partners provide. PeopleTools is the proprietary toolset that Oracle uses and that ASU technologists use to build PeopleSoft applications.  To be able to use the support structure of Oracle, the vendor for PeopleSoft, the applications must be at a supported level. This includes the technical underpinnigs of the application.  Our current tools version is now several years old. This project will move ASU to the most recent tools release offered by Oracle. PeopleTools ver 8.5 is a pre-requisite for subsequent application upgrades planned for the upcoming year. Oracle states, "This new version of PeopleTools is the foundation to the PeopleSoft Enterprise 9.1 applications".

 

As well as improving ASU's support position, the PeopleTools Upgrade offers advantages immediately in the 8.9 environments.

  • Improved User Experience through new menu structures and type ahead features
  • A cleaner look with a more up to date style sheet
  • Improved Performance by using partial page refresh capabilities
  • Enhanced developer productivity supported by expanded tools features
  • Better security since the underlieing infrastructure is moved to more recent versions

ASU's hosting partner CMSC will play a key role in the upgrade.  In a related project, CMSC will upgrade the database serving ASU's PeopleSoft Applications to 11g.
