Australia - New Zealand (ANZ)

Hi all,

We're currently looking into the value of doing a tools upgrade as part of our yearly patching of PeopleSoft next year to whatever's current at the time. This year we were driven by a maintenance pack pre-requisite for Campus which had us upgrade from tools 8.49 to 8.51 (yes, we were one of the last unis).

8.52 with a dashboard wizard targeted at the business analyst/end user sounds promising in the promotional material. Would like to know if anyone has implemented down under, and what the take up and effectiveness has been in the functional (or even end user) space.

We have both CS/HRMS and Financials, and all are interested.

Also, are there any other gems that surprised you? I've read the 8.52 release notes but nothing else has really shone out at me.

Thanks,
Vu
