All users will have read-only permission to view data. The data owners agreed with the business team on the decision to make data available to all authorized units. This decision will allow units to search all data for information about products or vendors and to contact each other about experiences with vendors. Keeping the data widely available will be another way to insure transactions meet University policies and state laws. The project will roll out for limited testing by select units in the next month.
Summer is the target date for completion of the full project.
Announcements about the availability of the data marts and training for their use will be made in the near future. A Web site is being established for the project, and the address will be announced to EOS and P-Card users as soon as it is available.
