The Improved Navigation project was successfully completed and went into production on Monday, October 17, 2022.
Overview
The new Fluid interface redesigns the pages found in the system's PeopleSoft view, allowing you to navigate via tiles. The tiles contain pages that are logically grouped together by business processes. Fluid will only be visible to users with expanded access roles:
- Initiator
- Approver
- Inquiry
Self-service pages will not be impacted (i.e., standard employees will not see a change).
RESOURCE ALERT: Check out the New Navigation Overview video for a complete breakdown of the changes you can expect! Want to see them live? Head over to our custom simulation.
