Starting this October, the University is delivering a transformation in our HR and finance services and giving everyone a simple online system for all the tasks we need to get done day to day. Image Things like booking annual leave, recruiting staff or claiming expenses will all be jobs we can do through the new system. Accessible through MyEd, the People and Money system will replace multiple outdated systems and processes with a new way to get things done, quickly and simply. People and Money starts going live on 28 October this year, when the HR part of the system will launch. You’ll be able to: · See and request all your annual leave through the system – and if you’re a line manager, approve or decline requests from your email · Search My Knowledge – a bank of in-system self-help info – for answers to common HR queries · Contact a new, dedicated HR Helpline for more complex queries · View and amend your personal details, like your address, in People and Money · Apply for and recruit to roles through the system, with checklists and automatic prompts · Cut admin with a refreshed approvals process, fully automated by the system The system is very simple and intuitive. Support for the HR system launch will also be available in the form of how-to guides and ‘local guides’ - colleagues in each area of the University who can provide coaching and signpost you to further support. People and Money replaces hundreds of outdated systems with a smart, online way to get day-to-day tasks done quickly and simply visit edin.ac/peopleandmoney to get the lowdown on the changes and watch the demos. Lorna McLoughlin, Deputy Programme Lead, Service Excellence Programme What's next? Payroll will follow in February 2021 and finance and staff development in April 2021.
