Benefits • Integrated with Kuali Financial System • Similar look and feel to IU financial and purchasing systems • Code is visible, modifiable, supportable • Opportunity to influence functionality via participation in KCC • Research data no longer housed and controlled by financial system • Potential for Easier/Faster Reporting
Risks • Requires more knowledgeable departmental user requiring significant training effort. • Significant user support infrastructure required • Additional ORA staffing required during implementation of KC system • Staffing and resources required to maintain the enhanced electronic systems • Interfaces with other systems; must be modified to facilitate reporting capabilities
