In July the BG@100 Executive Steering Committee approved the Change Control Process which will be used during the Human Resource
and Payroll conversion and all future applications, such as, Finance and Student Administration that convert to PeopleSoft.
The highlights of the Change Control Process document cover the following topics.
What is a customization?
What are acceptable customizations?
What are unacceptable customizations?
What is the Action Item Procedure?
A goal of the BG@100 project team as defined in the Executive Strategic Outline is to implement the PeopleSoft applications
as delivered. Knowing that some changes are inevitable, these changes must be kept to a minimum in order to allow us to easily
upgrade the applications in the future and to keep the costs associated with customizations as low as possible.
The purpose of the Change Control Process is to define a framework of what an acceptable change is, an unacceptable change
is and how to proceed with those changes which do not fall into either of these categories. Action Items are created by the
project team in an attempt to persuade the Executive Steering Committee that a customization is essential to the university.
Action Items will be presented to the Executive Steering Committee for their approval by the functional team members and any
subject matter experts whom are directly impacted by their decision.
