The presentation will focus on the following:
- Providing an overview of the design approach and leading practices for the eliminating custom ChartField segments and establishing a multidimensional structure
- Highlighting the framework including the Chart of Account governance structure for establishing consensus across the institution – including moving from 2 Business Unit (e.g. Entities) for Hospital and Academic Research to 1 Business Unit for UTSW
- Outline the approach for establishing a crosswalk mapping to move from 9.1 to 9.2 ChartField definitions and adhering to the principle of single definition/single purpose usage
- Removing significant customizations that were dependent on the 9.1 structure and adopting delivered business processes based on the new Chart of Account design
- Providing overview of the Training strategy and Change Management approach for enabling end user adoption and understanding of the new structure across the institution
