Change is the only thing that is constant. Oracle’s PeopleSoft Customers prefer to change the application rather than change their business processes to suite their requirements. Customizing PeopleSoft all time is not a good idea. Can we avoid it? No, we cannot avoid customization to PeopleSoft Application as it might not suite customer requirements. Common Attribute Framework (CAF) delivered in PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, which is gaining a wide popularity, is a simple, quick and easy solution that helps you to maximize the ROI from PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. In many cases, individual areas of an institution have valid business needs to add one or more fields to a component. The Common Attribute Framework (CAF) addresses this requirement - by allowing functional users to define additional fields in any functional area where the framework is enabled via delivered configuration rather than through a development process.Join us in this presentation to learn how to configure Common Attribute Framework (CAF), and also the lifecycle management of CAF using CAPI – a Change Management and Version Control application for PeopleSoft.The presentation will include the following information:- Introduction to Common Attribute Framework- Add a long description to the Academic Program table using CAF- Add a new attribute to the Class Schedule (a delivered CAF enabled page)- Check in the changes into the version repository using CAPI.- Migrate CAF using CAPI to System Testing, UAT and to Production Environment.- Rollback the migration.- Review of other features of CAPI.- Q&A
