Canada Presentations

Note: This presentation was previously delivered at the Alliance Conference in 2016. (There will be minor updates.)

The XML Transcript delivered in PeopleSoft Campus Solutions 9.0 is advertised as a more flexible solution. But is it really? In practice, schools are locked into a very specific data structure tied to the delivered configuration pages, with no scope for additional fields.

This session models Simon Fraser University (SFU)’s new transcript which restructures the transcript layout, includes custom grouping and several additional fields, while minimizing changes to the delivered BI Publisher product.

Topics include where to start, how and where to make small changes for big impact, tips and tricks, and the challenges SFU encountered (performance, layout).
