Congratulations! You've completed the PeopleSoft Concepts and Navigation course. Let's take a moment to sum up what you have learned.

  • The Campus Community is a single database that stores all job applicant, prospective students, students, alumni, staff, faculty, temps, casuals, and retiree data.
  • Everyone is identified by an Empl ID, which is the same as their University ID.
  • PeopleSoft pages are displayed in components. Each component contains one or more pages.
  • When entering data, you use the Tab key to move between fields.
  • Clicking the save button saves all of the changes to the component.
  • PeopleSoft stores information using effective dates, which allows it to retain historical records.
  • New information is entered by adding a new row.
  • Data may be historical, current, or future. This is determined by the effective date.
  • There are four action modes: Add, Update/Display, Update/Display All, and Correction.
  • Stanford policy states that you must use Search/Match before entering any new individuals into the Campus Community.
