Overall Satisfaction with PeopleSoft Financials

PeopleSoft Financials is a good program. I use it to balance my budget, purchase items and follow up on items ordered. This program is very useful in tracking orders and items ordered.
  • You are able to see the process from ordering to delivery
  • Easy to run budget reports
  • Helps with end of year spending
  • Reports are a little difficult to read
  • Would be better if they could make the font bigger when printing our reports.
  • Budget tracking
  • Could make budget reports easier to read and understand. Maybe give the option to make the font larger.
  • Datatel
Both about the same I like the new interface of PeopleSoft
I like the program, if a company wanted to use this program I would feel good recommending. Most employees could learn the program in a short period of time.

  • Running the reports is pretty easy. It is user-friendly, easy to understand.
  • Easy to explain to others how to run reports. Can view purchases and see when items have been delivered.
  • Can order from Staples using PeopleSoft, orders from Staples come really fast using this system.
  • Putting in travel, but once you have done it a couple of times it becomes easier.
