Created testing scenarios, performed UAT Testing, created training and communications for any changes, keeping team abreast of projects.
Loaded new workgroups to the workgroup tables in PeopleSoft that mapped to Kronos security.
Researched table information to trouble shoot issues for service centers and employees. For example, if a job needed to be posted in Taleo but the correct address for the location was not listed, a new location needed to be created in PeopleSoft with that address. Also, if I was asked to correct a job code for an employee and the job code was not available, I could see in the tables if a similar job code was available otherwise we would need to set up a new job code for that location. Finally, if someone had questions about the taxation of benefits, I would research the tables for the answer as to how it was set up.
