[cid:image003.png@01DA3FD9.A7BD11D0] December 2023 NeSIS Award Recipient

Saranga Jayaraman was chosen as the recipient of the December 2023 NeSIS (NeSIS Employee Shining Impactful Superstar) award. As many of you know, we receive many PRPs (PeopleSoft Release Patchsets) from PeopleSoft which contain small bug fixes or specific enhancements. These tend to be time sensitive and need to be applied and moved through the environments quickly. Saranga has become our PRP guru and masterfully navigates all of the other maintenance activities that are going on to ensure they are applied in a timely manner without causing any other disruptions. He is also always willing to help troubleshoot and resolve issues and is an invaluable AMP Team Superstar!!

A degree audit system is essential to students to ensure they can successfully complete their degree. The requirements for degree completion are defined in the tool and available for students to track their progress and help them choose the correct courses. The NU registrars have collaborated to purchase a new degree audit system provided by Stellic and are in the process of configuring and implementing this new vendor-hosted cloud product. Upon completion of the project, each campus will be able to decommission various existing on-premise tools.

The campus Registrars, SIS IT teams and NeSIS staff are working collaboratively to facilitate the various integrations by leveraging skillsets to create similar, when applicable, data extracts. NU ITS partners are also involved in various components, such as single sign on and project management.

The projected go-live is for the Fall 2024 cohort of students, which will beging sometime in the April/May timeframe. More information will be given as the project progresses. [cid:image005.png@01DA3FD9.A7BD11D0] Immunization Projects Complete

Last April NeSIS released a new NU immunizations eform which allows incoming students to input immunization data and securely upload vaccination records for the University institution they attend. Once submitted, the data and documents are automatically uploaded, and campus staff are assigned workflow tasks to review the information provided. Since its launch, 6184 NU students have used this new process to submit their required immunization records.

Soon after the NU launch, NeSIS began working with the State Colleges to build an SC immunization eform and workflow. On January 8, 2024, the SC Immunization Project will be moved to the Production system and made available for students to begin using.

A big thank to everyone who worked with NeSIS to develop and test this new process! [cid:image006.png@01DA3FD9.A7BD11D0] Susan Lee Functional Coordinator, Enterprise Tools
