PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Menu Navigation/Dropdown Navigation
7
PeopleTools 8.50 offers floating drop-down menu navigation. Place your mouse over any section of the menu, the menu cascades to the right,
revealing more components that you have access to view. Advantages of the new floating navigation are:
You can sort the menu – Click the sort icon on the main menu to toggle between alphabetic ascending, descending, and portal sequence number
presentation of folders.
The menu is scrollable – Click the scroll arrows that appear at the top and bottom of the menu when the menu is too long for you to view in its
entirety. When you find the folder or page, select it.
You can search the menu – Enter a keyword or phrase and the search index will generate matching entries as you type. When you see a match,
select the item in the list.
The menu leaves breadcrumbs – As you navigate, breadcrumbs appear across the top of the page to inform you of your location.
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Modal Prompt Pages and Modal Alert Dialog Boxes
8
All Look Up (prompt) pages and alert dialog boxes are modal and appear in front of the primary page, which is grayed out while the prompt
page is active. When working with these pages, you can:
Resize the page.
Minimize or collapse the page to the title bar.
Close the page from the title bar close icon.
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Favorites Menu Enhancements
9
The Favorites menu has been enhanced to include a Most Recently Used (MRU) list. The last five (5) most recently accessed pages appear at the
top of the Favorites list. The Favorites menu also includes the primary key as part of any Favorite that you save. For example, as a Security
Administrator you can create a generic Employee user profile on the Copy User Profile page and save it as a favorite. When new employees are
hired, you can navigate directly to this profile within the Favorites menu and quickly create a new employee.
You are no longer taken to the search page.
This is the new favorites menu showing the Recently Used list and the Base EE User Profile favorite in the My Favorites list:
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Type Ahead
10
Prompt Fields now include a type ahead text. As you type, the system searches in the background and matches entries in the record to the text
you enter. Type ahead is configurable through User Personalizations, and appears on search pages and in prompt dialog boxes.
This is an example of type ahead on a Maintain Schedule of Classes page where the user is searching for a “Subject Area” with the letter “m”.
System displayed all subjects with letter “M”.
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Processing Icon Changes
11
The processing and saved icons have changed. The new processing icon looks like this:
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: User Interface Enhancement
Search Page Enhancements
12
Search pages now include a Maximum number of rows to return field. When you perform a search using a transaction search page, you can
determine the number of entries that the search can return. The maximum value and the default value are set in the Search Settings on the
PeopleTools Options page.
You can limit the number of search items returned by entering a lower value in the Maximum number of rows to return field on the search
page; you can set the number of entries that the search returns to any value less than the maximum.
If the search retrieves more than the maximum number of listings, the Search Results grid displays the total number of results above the search
results.
Sample Screen Shot Below: Rows to return is set to 10, the search results shows possible 11368 records but only 10 records are displayed.
PEOPLETOOLS 8.50 New Features: Query Enhancements
13
Ability to add in-tree criteria prompt
Download query to XML file
After you click the XML link on the Query Manager or Query Viewer search results page, query results are downloaded to browser as web
browser format and there are options that enable you to open, save, or cancel the downloaded file. If you click the Open button, XML formatted
query result is downloaded to browser.
The Download to XML link is also available on the Query Manager - Run page. In the Schedule Query component, there are two new formats
XML and XMLP. XML produces web-row-set XML format result. XMLP produces XMLP format result.
HR Table Setup New Features or Changes: Template Based Hire
14
Navigation: Main Menu > Set Up HRMS > Product Related > Work Administration > Template-Based Hire > Template Creation
Main Menu > Workforce Administration > Template-Based Hire
Template-Based Hire (also called Smart-Hire) enables a template administrator to configure hiring pages according to an organization’s unique
on-boarding processes that often differ by jobs, geographies, worker types, industries, and so forth. Configuration options include field and
page layout, as well as security and automatic updates. Field attribution features include the ability to default and hide values, override
defaulted values, or require fields at the user interface level. With templates that default all data common to a job, a person performing entry
only needs to enter variable data such as name or address. This significantly reduces the time it takes to enter hire data, and ensures that the
data saved to the database is correct and complete. It also is possible to allow or disallow users from overriding template data so that
organizations can determine the level of policy flexibility granted to users
HR Table Setup New Features or Changes: Personal Modal Changes
15
Navigation: Main Menu > Setup HRMS > System Administration > Database Processes
The Person Model enables a single source of truth for employee data and work history. Staff productivity improves by entering data only once,
instead of several times in multiple systems. Enhancements to Person Model include:
Improved flexibility to support the growing contingent worker segment of the workforce
Batch process for deleting Employee IDs supports the deletion of specific Employee Records giving organizations the flexibility to manage
employee records at a more granular and accurate level, leading to better data integrity and reporting for terminations and turnover analysis
Organizations have more options for the types of non-workers who can be paid or receive benefits. Possible Persons of Interest who may receive
payments or benefits from an organization include surviving spouses or former dependents

activities for an individual for Fall Term 2010 but only once the Drops period has begun, which is two weeks into the term. The Service
Indicator code with the appropriate impact is assigned with a Start Term value of Fall Term 2010, an End Term value of Fall Term 2010, and a
Start Date of Dec 6. Selecting both check boxes would allow this impact to restrict enrollment activities only on or after Dec 6 and only for Fall
Term 2010.

Modules Enhancements: Human Resources – Mass Update Features,
Credit Card and HCM Event Manager
39
Mass Update Features
Mass Update feature enables you to make changes to the data of large groups of people. Mass Update Manager is the front end module where
you define, create, manage, report, execute and delete mass updates. The Transaction Processor is the back-end module that consists of the
Configure Processor component for setting up and managing system data that is available for mass updates and an application class that
provides access to transaction processing functionality. The Execution Manager is a back-end module that is a mechanism in the batch mass
update process.
Credit Card Encryption
Stronger credit card encryption solution that complies with the cardholder data protection requirements of the Payment Card Industry (PCI)
Data Security Standard and with Visa’s Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP).
HCM Event Manager
HCM Event Manager is a framework that enables you to define, implement, and run business logic for business events. Using the Event
Manager framework, you can define the business events that the system raises when you change certain data in application components or run
certain PeopleTools Application Engine processes. You can also define the event handlers that the Event Manager framework executes to react
to these specific event instances. Raising an event is the act of creating an event instance. If an event is raised, the Event Manager framework
automatically executes the business logic for the registered event handlers of the event.
(Continuation) Modules Enhancements: Human Resources – HCM
Event Manager and General HCM Enhancements
40
To make code reuse more manageable, we provide a registry that enables you to register HCM interfaces for Service Oriented Architecture
(SOA). The HCM Registry holds all the interface specifications for available services. It stores contracts from service providers and provides
those contracts to interested service consumers. The service provider registers the interface, the service consumer locates the interface in the
registry and uses the information to bind and execute the contract between the consumer and the provider.
Military Rank enhancements can be applied globally and provide considerable value to global military customers in several ways. A number of
new and existing pages now display military-specific fields and sections when the Military functionality is enabled on the Installation table. New
components are defined to support the definition and make up of military services, as well as tracking and personal information of individual
service members. This feature integrates with the Human Resources Manage Profiles business process to update service member worn rank
changes through services defined in the HCM Event Manager.
Contingent Worker/Person enhancements added to further take advantage of the 8.9 Person Model changes. We can now track security
clearances, badges for all people in your PeopleSoft HCM database. The previous Job Summary has been enhanced for any person with a Job,
and renamed to Workforce Job Summary. With the addition of several expiration dates, there is now an online expiration inquiry page, as well
as a batch process to notify managers and other roles designated by the users.
General HCM Enhancements
A common document generation solution used throughout the PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM suite that leverages Oracle's XML Publisher
technology. (General HCM Enhancements may not apply to all products.)
The new product now has a vastly improved functionality to automatically trigger workflow notifications to inform the next approver in the
process of work waiting. It is user-friendly, configurable, easily maintained and upgraded, and consistent across all adopting HCM applications
through the use of the Approval Workflow Engine. (Please note that general HCM Enhancements may not apply to all products.)
Utilizing the Approval Workflow Engine, users have the ability to authorize other users to perform managerial tasks on their behalf by
delegating authority to initiate or approve managerial transactions. (General HCM Enhancements may not apply to all products.)
Modules Enhancements: Human Resources – Profile Management
41
Profile Management
Key elements of the new profile management feature are:

Track job/organization and person profile attributes with the newly designed, flexible-setup content catalog. The content catalog joins the
existing competency management and job profiles data structures.

Link job or organization profiles to a number of different entities such as job code, position, department, and so on. Also define entities based
on your business needs.

Streamline profile administration by copying items between profiles. For example, employee profiles can contain profile items that also appear
in job code or salary grade profiles.

Control who can view or change profiles by enabling profile approval processing. Use the security settings for each content section to control
who can view and update the section.

Perform targeted analysis through powerful search and compare tools.

Integrate with ePerformance, Recruiting Solutions, and Enterprise Learning Management and other PeopleSoft applications, such as Financials
and CRM.

Garnishment Processing
42
Manage Base Benefits business process enhancements:

Reorganized rate table functionality. One rate structure replaces the previous service rate tables. Common architecture standardizes rate table
definition.

insurances that only require an associated rate.

Simplified many dependent relationships and mapped them to benefit eligible statuses.

Streamlined several Savings Plan components to increase usability and flexibility to limit processing and overrides.
Garnishment Processing
Improved flexibility for garnishment processing by leveraging the Canadian rules-based engine to meet the ever-changing regulatory
requirements in the United States. This gives customers complete control over all aspects of their garnishment calculations by providing users
more flexibility in defining the applicable earnings and exemptions. These changes increase staff productivity by reducing the amount of
manual labor required to compute garnishments, which also improves data accuracy. Business flexibility is also improved.
Modules Enhancements: Payroll – Integration with T&L and Year End
Report
43
Integration with T&L
Enhanced integration between Payroll for North America and Time and Labor, including reconciling reported and payable time, payable time
status and reason codes, Load Time and Labor filters, and check reversals.

Enhanced Payroll for North America and ePay functionality to enable customers to use XML Publisher (XMLP) to produce paychecks in PDF
format. The system creates and stores data in XML format and builds the PDF file for display on demand using XMLP templates. We deliver
paycheck report templates that customers can modify to add their company logo, as an example. Employees are then able to access, view and
print an electronic version of their paycheck details through Self Service, including YTD hours and amounts for each check. A separate view is
provided for payroll administrators to access employees’ paychecks for verification or reprint purposes.
Enhanced Payroll for North America and ePay functionality to enable customers to use XML Publisher (XMLP) to produce W-2, W-2c, T4 and
T4A forms in PDF format. This functionality creates online as well as paper forms in PDF format, and provides employees with access to an
electronic version of their year-end forms through Self Service. The system creates and stores data in XML format and builds the PDF file for
display on demand using XMLP templates. Employees are then able to view or print the forms. A separate view is provided for payroll
administrators to access employees’ forms for verification or reprint purposes. The payroll administrator is able to view forms for all employees,
including forms for employees who have not consented to receiving their forms electronically. To assist with the process of obtaining employee
consent for online forms, new pages, workflows, notifications, and reports are provided.
