UWinsite Finance is the University of Windsor’s financial information system that is scheduled to go live on Feb 1st, 2018. It is a grouping of modules that operate independently but work in harmony. The UWinsite Finance modules include:
- General Ledger
- Projects - Research and Capital
- Accounts Payable
- Accounts Receivable and Billing
- Self-Service Procurement
- iExpenses
- Reporting
- Planning and Budgeting
The General Ledger (GL) holds the main records of the University and is at the centre of UWinsite Finance. All transactions flow through the various modules to arrive at the GL.
Since the UWinsite Finance modules operate independently, each has its own unique security and access rules. The modules broadly available to all faculty and staff are iExpenses, the Travel and Expense management system, and Self-Service Procurement.
This new finance system is part of a campus-wide enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementation and will be vital in ensuring service excellence to all of the University’s key constituencies. Ultimately, UWinsite systems will become the technological foundation that will support Faculty and Staff in providing exceptional experiences for students, and excellent service to all of the University’s key communities.
Main benefits of the UWinsite Project are:
- Improved student experience and satisfaction
- Increased self-service functionality for students, faculty and staff
- Improved routine workflows and reduced manual processes
- Redirection of Faculty and Staff time to more value-added activities
- Improved data reporting and analytics
