It was suggested that having someone outside the group review the document for clarity before it is presented may be beneficial. It was also suggested that consistent wording be used throughout the document. For example, data mart versus data warehouse. Since both of these terms, among others, may be used, it was decided to add an appendix titled Definition of Terms. Terms mentioned that need to be included in the appendix were as follows: Data Warehouse (data) Data Mart (summary information) Information Repository Reporting Library (predefined reports) Functional Data Store Karen mentioned that her boss attended the HEUG conference and discovered that there is a reporting tool within PeopleSoft called EPM, and was questioned why the University is not using it rather than going through this reporting recommendation process. EPM is not working, and the recommendation document should include an explanation of why EPM is not sufficient for the reporting needs of the University. It was noted that the budget module uses EPM. Art suggested that a statement be included in the recommendations that EPM is not a viable option now, but may be a tool used in the future. Mike Ray suggested a summary for the Findings section of the recommendations as follows: Current reporting strategies are not meeting information needs from the highest level to the individual level Significant redundant processes Lack of documentation Lack of tools Lack of training Bob will work with the academic representatives to see what information in the Academic Administration Needs portion of the draft recommendations can be moved to an appendix. Bonita will send Bob the Draft Recommendations document with the suggested corrections that have been made to the document today, and prepare another draft to be distributed to members of the committee. Bob asked that the Draft Recommendations be shared only with members of the committee at this point. Next Steps and May 8th Meeting It was decided that another meeting would be needed between now and May 8th in order to meet the deadline for finalizing and presenting the recommendations. Bob will try to convene the group again in approximately two weeks. *?H{AUW`EH*5H*55CJ+?HUdz{X Y  & F$a$EY o < =  ' = K \ ] @A`aCDE & F#0P/ =!"#$% i8@8 NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH NN Heading 1$$@&`a$>*CJOJQJ^JFF Heading 2$dh@&^ OJQJ^J22 Heading 3$@&5\6@6 Heading 4$$@&a$5<A@< Default Paragraph Font<C< Body Text Indent ^2O2 Informal1 <<aJ,B, Body Text5\E +?HUdz{XYo<= ' = K \ ]   @ A ` a C D G 8??????????0? ? ? ? ? ? ?????? ? ? ? ? ?????? ? ? ? ? ???????????E Y E E 8@0(  B S  ?E   %GMcksz T^G lengerbA:\TRS-Agenda 04_10_03.docAuditing<C:\windows\TEMP\AutoRecovery save of TRS-Agenda 04_10_03.asdAuditing=C:\My Documents\Reporting Strategies\TRS-Minutes 04_10_03.docAuditing=C:\windows\TEMP\AutoRecovery save of TRS-Minutes 04_10_03.asdAuditing=C:\My Documents\Reporting Strategies\TRS-Minutes 04_10_03.docAuditing=C:\My Documents\Reporting Strategies\TRS-Minutes 04_10_03.docAuditing=C:\My Documents\Reporting Strategies\TRS-Minutes 04_10_03.docAuditingDC:\My Documents\Reporting Strategies\TFRS-041003 Minutes.doc.doc.docAuditingA:\TFRS-041003 Minutes.doc.doc Bob MullenZP:\IRP\decision_support\System Reporting Strategy\Meeting -- 04_10_03\Minutes_04_10_03.doch)6XQ  H^O";(pܳ~["_ph ^`OJQJo(vh ^`OJQJo(oh pp^p`OJQJo(h @ @ ^@ `OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh PP^P`OJQJo( hh^h`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(vh ^`OJQJo(oh pp^p`OJQJo(h @ @ ^@ `OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh PP^P`OJQJo(^`o(.^`.pLp^p`L.@ @ ^@ `.^`.L^`L.^`.^`.PLP^P`L.h ^`OJQJo(vh ^`OJQJo(oh pp^p`OJQJo(h @ @ ^@ `OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(h ^`OJQJo(oh PP^P`OJQJo(O";~[ Hh)G @E P@UnknownGz Times New Roman5Symbol3& z Arial;Wingdings?5 z Courier New"1hqt&ytFwRr& !0dl 2Draft White paper: Bob Mullen Bob MullenOh+'0 ( D P \ ht|Draft White paper:raf Bob Mullen ob ob  Normal.dot  Bob Mullen 3b Microsoft Word 9.0@G@bb@-+@ڒfF ՜.+,0 hp  University of ֱ SystemDrl  Draft White paper: Title  !"#$&'()*+,/Root Entry F ^ToF11TableWordDocument%SummaryInformation(DocumentSummaryInformation8%CompObjjObjectPool ^ToF ^ToF  FMicrosoft Word Document MSWordDocWord.Document.89q
