Web-based Functions in PeopleSoft 7.0
Human Resources and Student Administration modules in PeopleSoft Release 7.0 will include
some functions that can be addressed through the World-Wide Web. These functions are mainly
information and service operations by which an individual university student, faculty or staff
member can directly complete business that now may involve several calls, office visits or
correspondence. These functions may be available through any WWW access point (ULNet,
on-campus Computer User Center, or outside service provider) or through computer kiosks that
will be installed on campus in the enrichment phase of Project ORION. Security for such
information and service functions will be provided by an ID+PIN (e.g., Social Security number
and 'personal identity number') record such as is presently being used for telephone registration.
Additional 'Web applets' are being developed for later release.
