Getting things done with PeopleTools
It’s part of our job, everyday, not only work, lead and convince others about our ideas and goals, but to evaluate these goals, plans and ideas of everyone around us. ERP systems are never a result of one person’s edicts.
An excellent article about the real historical pace of technical adoption. So how does our PeopleSoft skills fall into this?
Time to get your PeopleTools Geek on and update your home labs to the latest PeopleTools 8.62 version
I’ve encountered two issues with dates in PeopleSoft Insights Dashboards:
• Null dates in data tables
• Displaying the correct date rather than the UTC date
We’re going to discuss work arounds for these two issues using scripted fields.
Insight Data Table real estate can be a problem. Too many columns and they get pushed together with data and labels truncated and offset.
And it crashes.
The users always want more, but it’s not pretty.
But we do have a solution: put a PSQuery link in the data grid that is big as they want and will show whatever data you choose
Use a PeopleSoft Fluid Navigation Collection to organize multiple Insights Dashboards
… Then invest in your Functionals.
(another bloviating opinion piece)
Beginning with PeopleTools 8.61, we can embed Insights dashboards in Fluid pages. Meet the users where they are in their workflow and provide an Insights dashboard on the page next to their data.
Add Scripted Fields to Insights Index Patterns to manipulate data to create more meaningful visualizations for our users.
