PeopleSoft's Human Capital Management (HCM) 8.9 is a new business application that will be used at the HSC as of July 2007. The new HCM 8.9 business application is replacing the Health Science Center’s outdated PeopleSoft Human Resource Management System (HRMS) 7.5 business application system.

People Soft's HCM 8.9 is the administrative software used for major administrative computing systems by the Health Science Center. This software will help achieve organizational goals by improving service levels. People Soft interacts with the Health Science Center community -- students can access their records and registrations, and faculty and staff can connect with the Human Resources, Financials, and Student systems.  This system is part of a project called CACTUS, Centralized Administrative Computerized Technology for the University System.

This new system will be used for Human Resources, Payroll, Benefits, and Position Budgeting personnel data. The new system will give every active Health Science Center employee access to Employee Self-Service. This feature will allow employees to do such things as update their personal information, view current or previous pay advices, and view the benefits they selected for the current fiscal year.
