Review, correct and/or re-map and validate data elements, fields and values in accordance with HR standardization Phase 2 requirements in Oracle/PeopleSoft for Common Human Resources System (CHRS) pre-conversion readiness. All CSU employees Summary In support of HR Data Standardization Phase 2 requirements and CHRS pre-conversion readiness, Job Datarelated elements and fields in the Oracle/PeopleSoft employment history database were reviewed to determine if they were being utilized across the campuses for the same purpose and if the existing values were being consistently and uniformly applied. This Technical Letter provides a concluding summary of the Phase 2 assessment, communicates requirements, and indicates what campuses must accomplish by January 31, 2014 for CHRS pre-conversion readiness. Campuses are responsible for conducting a review, update and validation of campus Job data to ensure that pre-conversion objectives are accomplished. Individuals responsible for reviewing, correcting and validating employment history information should read the remainder of this technical letter. Background Information: HR re-introduced the HR Standardization project in support of two major technology initiatives: the State Controller s Office s (SCO) MyCalPAYS project, and implementation of a single Human Resources (HR) database in Oracle/PeopleSoft, the Common Human Resources System (CHRS) project. The HR Standardization Project remains consistent with systemwide Human Resources strategic goal to foster an environment of continuous human resources improvement and will therefore expand beyond the CHRS project. Numerous milestones have been accomplished in the CHRS project for Phases 1 and 2. Project activities remain in progress as first wave campuses (Fresno, Sacramento and Sonoma) prepare for their scheduled July/August 2014 go-live. Distribution: CSU Chancellor Executive Vice Chancellor and CAO Executive Vice Chancellor and CFO Vice Chancellor, Human Resources All Campus Vice Presidents State Controller s Office/PPSD

2 Page 2 of 2 CHRS HR Data Standardization Deliverables: HR Data Standardization Phase 1: In support of CHRS HR Data Standardization objectives, Technical Letter HR/EHDB launched requirements to define, standardize, clean-up, and validate demographic-related data elements. This requirement - the HR Data Standardization Phase 1 project - was completed by 22 campuses and the Chancellor s Office in June 2013, with the remaining campus reporting 100% completion in July HR Data Standardization Phase 2: Goals include deliverables pertaining to the official employment roster. The Employment History Database (EHDB) Committee, comprised of subject matter experts from the Long Beach, Northridge, San Luis Obispo and Sonoma campuses and the Chancellor s Office, resumed activities in April 2013 to assist in developing HR requirements for the official employment roster and development of the employment transaction manual and data element dictionary. The Committee s focus was to review job-related data fields and provide feedback on the proposed elements and values. Establishing the HR standards was a collaborative effort with all campuses. It was essential that campus feedback (via survey) was assessed and incorporated as appropriate to determine what data will be carried forward into CHRS for pre-conversion approach determinations. Phase 2 accomplishments include: Employment Transaction Manual developed/drafted (August 2013) Data Element Dictionary developed/drafted (August 2013) Standardization Strategies (e.g., CHRS Position Papers) (August 2013) HR Requirements defined for job-related fields (August 2013) Campus surveys conducted to allow feedback and analysis on pre-conversion approach proposals (September 2013) Campus impacts and clean-up requirements identified (September October 2013) Pre-conversion approach finalized (November 8, 2013) Phase 2 will be completed when the campus pre-conversion clean-up activity is complete. Pre-conversion Clean-Up Requirements January 31, 2014: Campuses will be required to review, correct and/or re-map existing campus data based upon the pre-conversion approach identified for the respective data field (e.g., for conversion, data/values will either be carried forward or not carried forward into CHRS), or because data fields have been re-defined/re-labeled for systemwide purposes. We would appreciate it if you would place a high priority on completing this project since it has significant impact to CMS development and campus conversion activities, thus also impacting the project timeline. Metrics identified for pre-conversion requirements are summarized in Attachments A and B and constituent groups can access the detailed HR Data Standards via the EHDB Sharepoint site. Campus clean-up activities must be accomplished by January 31, Questions regarding this Technical Letter may be directed to Systemwide Human Resources Management (562) This Technical Letter is also available on Human Resources Management s Web page at: EN/dth
