I have heard that people using the new financial system will need to learn MS Access in order to use Business Objects. Is this true?
• Business Objects will be our campus-wide reporting tool. We will not be rolling out or supporting the use of MS Access as a reporting tool with the new financial system – it is also not a front end to Business Objects. Business Objects will be initially rolled out to a select number of individuals who need more powerful ad hoc reporting than self service Finance provides. We believe that the self service applications provided by the system will provide the majority of end users similar (if not more) information than they receive today. As we learn more, we will rollout Business Objects to other campus users as it is required/needed.
