Since campus-wide IAS training has ended, how will new hires who have joined my group learn about our purchasing system?

The initial formal training period is over but new hires can, for instance, learn from the experience of others within your group. Additionally, we have created training software for iProcurement now available at http://ias.rockefeller.edu/video.php. You can also contact Chris Keogh (x8199, keoghc@rockefeller.edu) in purchasing for help with iProcurement or Toby Fishman (x8305, fishman@rockefeller.edu) in Finance for Award Status Inquiry (ASI) assistance.

Will this new IAS System solve all of my problems?

Definitely not. As pointed out in the Out of Scope section of the IAS website, the IAS Project will not replace or alter many of the campus systems, as they cover specific areas that the IAS technology does not address. Also, one system cannot meet the needs of everyone in the large RU community. Compromises need to be made. Throughout its entire life, the IAS Project Team will work with the RU community to obtain feedback and make improvements, but the scope must be limited if the Project is to succeed in the first stages.
