  • Assigned as a normal priority
  • Funded by the Business School 

 

Impact and Dependencies

There will be an impact on how the new users utilise their business contacts within the IRM 

There will be no impact to any other system interfaces 

There is a dependency to complete the on-boarding prior to the current Salesforce license expiring in January 2022

Assumptions

The assumption is being made at present that the existing standard reporting capability currently delivered by the IRM will deliver the reporting requirements for the specified Business School users.  The subsequent risk to this assumption is referenced in the Risk Log - Risk 8 Additional reporting requirements defined 

Edinburgh Innovations have recognised the previous assistance provided by the Business School in the set up of the IRM and are providing 5 days technical assistance towards configuration and data migration.  Any additional effort may require additional funding from the Business School.  This is referenced in the Risk Log - Risk !0 - Additional EI funding required
