System Testing – Lessons Learned • The exit criteria for System Test were developed in July and at the time seemed rational and reasonable • In early September when we met the exit criteria we lacked confidence as a team in our true readiness to call this testing complete • We had several meetings with subset of the Decision Council for guidance and determined: • Extend System Test by one week (end date 10/8) • Start Integration Test – Iteration 2A on 10/11 • Continue to evaluate and track Test Faults needed for Iteration 2A
Other Testing Phases • Performance Testing • Performance testing tool installed and configured • Test scenarios / scripts being developed • Targeting testing of online, batch, reports, interfaces • Parallel Testing • Team identified and approach drafted • Campuses identifying data for comparative analysis • User Acceptance Test (UAT) • Approach defined, tentative dates established with campuses
Mock Conversion 3 Results • Completed on 9/24 • Data used for Integration Testing – Iteration #2 in HRWORK1 • Conversion Scorecard: • Document success rates for conversion using multiple methods in a variety of breakdowns by campus and functionality. • Available on the Intranet: • Log-In to the Intranet • Click on Data Conversion and Cleanup News • Click on the “Open the Validation Scorecard” at the bottom right-hand part of the window Mock Conversion 3 Scorecard
Conversion Current Phase • Currently in the middle of Mock 4 • Converted Data will be used for • Integration Testing – Iteration 3 (in HRTST) • Parallel Testing • Performance Testing • Start Date:10/4 • End Date: 10/18 • Longer Conversion window compared to previous mocks to ensure better quality of converted data.
Data Cleanup – Priority 1 Errors • As you can see there was a recent spike in Priority 1 Errors: • Decreased from 82% to 62% between August/September • Main Causes: New Hires and the HR Org. Department Reorganization • But over all percentage is back up to 84% and continues to go up!
Data Collection: Schedule • Expected time-line for completion • Total percent of data collected (as of 10/1)
Clean-Up & Collection Update • Login to the HRS-IntraNet to check on progress with Data C&C tasks on your campus. • https://intranet.hrs.wisc.edu/Content/hrs_conversion.aspx • Select Priority and Campus from the drop down menus
Reporting Sources • HCM = "live data" - HCM (Human Capital Management) is the live production system that contains the live transactional data. HCM is the data source for reports delivered with the PeopleSoft system (referred to as "delivered reports“ • EPM = "day-old data" - The EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) Data Warehouse will extract data from HCM on a nightly basis. EPM will be the source for most custom reporting needs, since most reports do not require "up to the minute" data.
EPM – The Data Warehouse • The EPM Data Warehouse simplifies the difficult tasks of finding, consolidating, and preparing information for distribution. • The EPM data warehouse serves as a platform for basic queries and reports, and also as a data feed for supplemental systems. • Access to EPM is provided through EPM Data Views
EPM – Data Views • For Release 1, the HRS Data Warehouse team is developing between 60-70 data views that will simplify your ability to access HRS data. The data views offer a number of advantages over querying the database table structures directly: • EPM (and HCM) contain very complex relational database structures • EPM data views simplify data access by performing complex joins and supplying code/description data pairs from lookup tables • EPM data views will be available for HRS "current data" PLUS "historical data" • There are separate EPM data views for secure vs. non-secure data
EPM – Data Dictionary • The EPM Data Dictionary is a document that details the EPM Data Views and the data that they contain. • It will be invaluable for understanding the EPM Data Views and how to utilize them in queries and reports
R1 Reporting Development Status As of 10/11: • Development of all 79 R1 custom or modified reports is complete
R1 EPM Development Status As of 10/11: • Development of all 47 EPM requirements is complete • EPM Data Dictionary published on the HRS Intranet website:https://intranet.hrs.wisc.edu/Content/hrs_reporting.aspx • Two student helpers will aid in enhancing the Data Dictionary documentation • Data Dictionary updates to be published on a monthly basis, targeting completion in 2/11
Reporting/EPM - Next Steps • Reporting – Release 1: • Identify and document R1 custom/delivered reports for Cypress distribution • Address Test Faults • Reporting - Deployments 2-13: • 77 custom/revised reports identified for Phases D2 - D13 • For the 42 reports targeted for D2 - D4, development to be complete by the end of February • 13 reports have business requirements completed, and 20 others are in process
Reporting/EPM - Next Steps • EPM: • Continue development of Data Dictionary & sample EPM queries • Develop & deliver Training for EPM / Data Dictionary / PSQuery • Develop & test Batch Scheduling for EPM ETL (Extract/Translate/Load) programs • Prepare EPM environments for Integration Testing & Supplemental Systems testing
Road Show – Purpose and Dates • The purpose of the road shows is to get the HRS Project team in front of the campus staff to demonstrate the modifications made to the system and to communicate to the campus staff critical information to help them prepare for implementation • November 9-10 in Oshkosh • November 16-17 in Eau Claire
Road Show Agenda Day 1 8:30 – 4:30 • Welcome • State of the Project • My UW Portal and Employee Self Service • HRS User Support • Security and Data Governance • HRS Communication • Human Resource System View • Each functional area lead will review the modifications and business processes for that area • Overview of HRS Timeline Day 2 8:30 – 4:30 • Human Resource System View • Each functional area lead will review the modifications and business processes for that area • EMP/Reporting Overview • Data Collection, Conversion, and Cleanup • Workshops • Query writing • Benefits enrollment forms • Communication strategies • PAGs
Project Concerns • Retention of key staff members • Uncertainty of future roles • Attrition of key staff members will require re-staffing to meet deliverables
