PeopleSoft Financials Management
Meticulon has been working with PeopleSoft Financials since 1998 (Release v6.00)
and has evolved with the product through many upgrades and enhancements;
ultimately to version 8.40. We know how to maximize the benefits of various modules
within the Financials suite and take advantage of the softwares inherent flexibility while
addressing any known weaknesses.
We do know financial systems, but we also realize that systems knowledge alone often
results in approaches that are technically correct but whose results miss the mark. It is
our considerable knowledge of financial business processes and functional best
practices that, when combined with our technical skills, allow us to provide a complete,
on-target solution, not just implement a software package.
Our deep financial business process experience includes individuals who have held
key financial and accounting positions at large NYSE companies. We understand
accounting operations, regulatory reporting, risk management, and financial planning
and analysis.
In fact, some of our past project customizations and enhancements have been
incorporated back into PeopleSoft core product releases.
Meticulon delivers a complete suite of services to help you successfully go live. Our
experienced consultants work in a collaborative fashion with clients to deliver quick,
cost effective solutions.
