HRS071 (AP23-006 ) HR HESA Staff Return 12/13
Category: Compliance
Milestones
RAG Status GREEN
| Report by Jill Nicoll for May 2013 Achievements in last period: UAT sign-off confirmed for HR database and application changes. HR database and application changes deployed to Live. UAT sign-off confirmed for HESA Apex forms and BOXI Universes. UAT sign-off confirmed for eRecruitment extract. Issues: By the morning of the UAT sign-off meeting, not all of the UAT testing had been completed. This resulted in delays to the Acceptance sign-off, Delivery, and Delivery sign-off milestones. An additional deployment delay will also be required, for the eRecruitment extract changes only. This is to allow more time for HR to load the new ACTSOC values into eRecruitment. Next Steps: Final UAT sign-off for HESA changes to be confirmed. HESA changes to be deployed to Live. HR to load new ACTSOC values, and make the new ACTSOC fields "active", in eRecruitment. eRecruitment extract to be deployed to Live. Deployment sign-off to be confirmed. | ||||||||||

AP34-XXX eRecruitment Phase 2 (Redeployment and Talent Pool) Funded Planning - August 2013 Delivery - January 2014 RAG Status

|
AP34-XXX HR & Payroll Annual Maintenance 13/14 Compliance Planning - October 2013 Delivery - May 2014 RAG Status
| Plan Real Time Information (RTI) and Autoenrolement, introduced in 12/13, have potentially altered the normal plan and approach for this project. It may be more sensible to start this project earlier should the start of the RTI submissions to HRMC require immediate updates.
Dependencies Start and end dates will depend on what Oracle release patches and how urgently they need to be applied to our system. |
AP34-XXX HR & Payroll Reporting Tool Compliance Planning - December 2013 (could be earlier?) Delivery - July 2013 RAG Status | Plan
Dependencies Ongoing work for eRecruitment and HESA testing will impact HR's ability to input to this project. Pensions and Payroll departments cannot undertake any work on this in August 2013 due to leave commitments. depending on when the Annual Maintenance project starts this could impact availability of business resources. |
AP34-XXX HESA Staff Return 13/14 Compliance Planning - November 2013 Delivery - September 2014 RAG Status
| Plan
Dependencies HESA have indicated that as the changes for 12/13 were substantail that changes for 13/14 will be minimal. This will not be certain until HESA release details of any required changes. |
