BG@100 conversion reaches milestone

The BG@100 project team has been completing data-mapping sessions throughout the past few months. These sessions can be long and tedious but constitute a critical step in the conversion to PeopleSoft. The sessions are nearing completion, and with the decisions reached in the process, the analysis and design of conversion programs can begin.

During the last week of October, the first legacy data related to benefits was successfully converted from the legacy system to the PeopleSoft test system.
