PeopleSoft HRMS Setup Considerations

You can use PeopleSoft HRMS as your employee source database. Selected data that is used to populate PeopleSoft Maintenance Management employee records and resource profiles is imported from PeopleSoft HRMS using application messages and the Integration Broker.

PeopleSoft HRMS and PeopleSoft Maintenance Management Implementation

When you implement PeopleSoft Maintenance Management with PeopleSoft HRMS, you create a system of business unit and SetID functionality that matches the way you manage processes related to both resources and HR. The system must also handle the integration issues of using multiple applications.

If your organization uses PeopleSoft HRMS to manage employee data, you also must set up the Resource Management business unit. Consider using the same business units in the PeopleSoft Resource Management database and the PeopleSoft HRMS database. A one-to-one correlation between PeopleSoft HRMS and PeopleSoft Resource Management business units simplifies organizational structure, business rules, and processing.

PeopleSoft 7.x HRMS or Third-Party HRMS

If your organization uses a PeopleSoft 7.x HRMS or earlier, or a third-party HRMS application, you can create a bridge between your HRMS application and PeopleSoft Maintenance Management. You use PeopleSoft Integration Broker to map your data to PeopleSoft Maintenance Management. Although you can use other HRMS applications and PeopleSoft Maintenance Management together, a third-party HRMS application may not support the full functionality of PeopleSoft Maintenance Management.
