The latest DASH Town Hall recording from March 7 is now available! We had another great turnout with well over 1,000 in attendance. The session highlighted DASH training strategies and included a demonstration of Oracle Guided Learning, the in-application guidance tool that will be available to our end users in DASH. If you were not able to attend the session, or if you just want to review what you did see, you can view the recording of the Town Hall here.
As we approach DASH go-live, we want to provide important information regarding planned cutover activities, where operations will cease in IRIS and resume in DASH. During cutover activities, we will load UT data, perform business specific activities and enable the DASH Production environment to get ready for go-live. Business specific activities include a “freeze period,” where some transactions will no longer be entered in IRIS (e.g., purchase orders, chart of accounts values, work requests), and will be entered in DASH after go-live.
