Prestigious Higher Education Institution Streamlines Payroll and Disability Processing with Oracle ERP

The Solution

The client’s out-dated application was replaced with the Time and Labor module from PeopleSoft HCM (human capital management) suite to expedite payroll processing. Implementing the Time and Labor module ensured the client could quickly input and process both existing and new payment requests. The system's flexibility ensures the platform will evolve to accommodate any business process changes. The module gave the client a singular user-interface that easily handles changes in reporting policies such as new overtime rules, changes to minimum wage, new time reporting codes, or changes to union contracts.
 
The PeopleSoft module was integrated with TimeClock Plus to automate the collection of time and attendance information. The data collected by TimeClock Plus is integrated with PeopleSoft Time and Labor for processing. This allowed the client to enable managers to reduce deployment risk and better manage, control, and report employee labor by providing them with in-depth data and information related to employee attendance and time worked.
 
The Time and Labor module was also integrated with the client's Information Warehouse to streamline reporting. The information repository integrates data from the client's various systems and applications, including the Time and Labor module, for easy, unified reporting. The system is updated nightly with data from multiple sources to ensure they have continuous access to the most relevant information, allowing them to improve reporting capabilities and analytics continually. 
 
PeopleSoft Absence Management module was implemented, and PeopleSoft Extended Leave sub-module was enabled, establishing a unified system and providing the client with a comprehensive view of all FMLA leaves. Additional customizations were added to the client's Short-Term Disability and Workers Compensation components to enhance their existing system further. These customizations allowed their current system to send and process absence events for FMLA short-term disability, FMLA work from home, and standalone FMLA requests, eliminating the need to process intermittent disability offline and demolishing data silos. With all the data stored in a single database, the client's administrators could get clear, up-to-date visibility of all ongoing FMLA requests allowing them to quickly and easily answer employee questions and stay compliant with FMLA requirements.
