Project Beacon will hit first "go live" milestone on May 2
Project Beacon, UPEI's organizational transformation initiative, will be reaching its first "go live" milestone when components of the finance module on the myUPEI portal become operational on May 2, 2016. Over 200 people have been trained on the system, ranging from requisitioners, spending approvers, budget authorities, finance staff, researchers, and senior management. The following activities will now be performed using myUPEI:
• Entering external requisitions for yourself or on behalf of your department
• Providing approvals for purchases of goods or services
• Managing a departmental budget
• Receiving goods and services for yourself or your department
• Monitoring research project budgets
The Project Beacon team invites everyone to a "Go Live" Celebration on Monday, May 2 at 10 am in the second floor lounge in the Kelley Memorial Building.
Employees are kept updated on Project Beacon's progress with the On the Horizon newsletter which is distributed by email using the UPEI Faculty-Staff ListServ.
