A periodic informational email from the Fulton County Schools SAP Management Team

 

This e-newsletter is sent each Wednesday during SAP implementation to keep SAP users aware of special dates, trainings, and other important need-to-know news. Consider this your “One Stop Shop” for SAP news!

    

Redesigned SAP web site launched

 

Have you visited the new FCS + SAP implementation web site? This site replaces the “A+ Project” web site that was launched a year ago to guide the school system’s transition to SAP.

 

The FCS + SAP site includes more specific information about SAP and how it is affecting Fulton County School System operations. It contains FAQs, training presentations, newsletters, and upcoming SAP events.

 

Visit the new FCS + SAP site now, and check back often for updates!

What in the ‘WORKS’ is going on?

 

Principals and department heads may have received a flurry of “WORKS” emails recently. Even though the timing is coincidental, these emails are not related to SAP implementation.

 

WORKS is the SunTrust P-Card software used to reconcile P-Card statements online. When the Contracting Department recently corrected an error regarding some transactions, the WORKS program began generating numerous notifications informing users that those tasks were being performed. Many of these e-mails can be disregarded; however, some reversals may require review so please review the transactions online.

 

For more information, contact Local School Accounting Support at 404-763-6841.

 

Quick Tip for the Week

 

Remember to save these weekly “Follow Me to SAP” emails, perhaps to a folder on your computer. They contain training information or tips that may be a handy reference as you continue using SAP.
